Registration of projects
Partners can register projects through a local distributor or directly to us (if there is no designated distributor).
Registration of the project guarantees protection for a period of 90 days and allows to obtain an additional discount, which translates directly into increased margin in the project. Registration may be extended before the expiry of 90 days for a further period not exceeding 60 days.
Conditions for registration of projects:
A correctly and thoroughly completed registration form should be sent to the distributor to verify the status of the project at the customer’s site. The registration is valid for 90 days from the moment of obtaining the booking confirmation.
The registration and confirmation of the submitted project is called a deal registration.
