Q. What is the cost of joining Amway Business?
A. There is NO cost of joining the Amway business. You can join the
Amway business “ABSOLUTELY FREE”
Q. What will an ABO get when he / she join the Amway Business?
A. When you join the Amway Business, you will get a “Business Starter
Guide” at the time of joining and an Amway ID card shortly after joining.
When you provide an e mail id to us we will e mail a temporary card to the
new ABO as well.
Q. Will there be any change in the process of joining at the office?
A. There will be no major change in the joining process at our offices. An
ABO would still need to fill a numberless application form.
ABO would need to go to the cashier who would generate a “zero value”
invoice. ABO will take the invoice and go to the DCS desk. DCS would
generate an online ADA number which will be filled on the numberless
application form. ABO will take the duly signed form and invoice to the
delivery counter. ABO would get the Business Starter Guide.
Q. Will there be any change in the process of joining on the website?
A. There will be no major change in the process of joining on the website.
The sponsor would continue to fill the form for the new joinee on the
website.
The new joinee would need to submit the physical copy of the form along
with other documents within 15 days to the nearest Amway office. If the
documents are not submitted within 15 days of online joining, the new
joinee would be “DELETED” from the system. and would need to rejoin
again.
Q. What are the documents required to be submitted along with the
application form?
A. Along with the application form, the new ABO needs to submit a photo
identity proof which also has HIS/HER address DETAILS on it. In case the
photo ID does not have an address, the new ABO would need to provide 2
documents, one photo id and other address proof.
Q. What are the documents for address proof?
A. Some of the examples are Election card, Driving license, Passport, Ration
card, UID/Aadhar Card, etc.
Q. In case of online joining, how will the new ABO get the ID card and
the Business Starter Guide?
A. ID card would be dispatched to the registered address of the new joinee
immediately on joining. The new ABO who had joined online would not get
a physical copy of the Business Starter Guide. He would be sent a link for
the soft copy of the Business Starter Guide on his email id given in the
online application form. He would also have the option of downloading the
soft copy of the Business Starter Guide from the Amway website.
Q. Will the new ABO get Amagram?
A. There will be no Amagram for new joinees. However, ABOs who renew
the business would continue to get Amagram.
Q. Will the new ABO be required to do any mandatory activity on
joining?
A. There is no requirement to compulsorily buy any Amway products to join
the business. However, the new ABO would need to activate within 90 days
of joining. Activation would mean purchase of products or BSM of “any
value” from Amway or sponsor a new ABO. In case the new ABO does not
activate within 90 days of joining, he would be deleted from the system. The
key thing here would be to ensure activity for the new ABO. If he sponsors a
new ABO, then he needs to ensure that the new ABO purchases/sells
products to confirm activity.
Q. In case the new ABO gets deleted after 90 days due to inactivity, can
ABO join again?
A. Yes, ABO can join again but he will not get his original position in the
old LOS .
Q. Can the new ABO, who got deleted due to non-activation within 90
days, rejoin immediately?
A. Yes, the ABO can join immediately. The 6-month inactivity period would
not apply to these ABO’s.
However, for any other scenario, the current Inactivity Rule remains
unchanged.
Q. What will be the First Purchase Offer (FPO) ? Will there be any
change?
A. There would be no change in the 1st FPO. It would continue to be “Do
100 PPVs in 30 days of joining and get a Protein Powder 200 gms for Re 1”.
The 2nd FPO would now be “Do 100 PPV’s in 60 days of joining and get a
discount of Rs 1000 on the order value”. A new ABO would need to do the
1st FPO first in order to be eligible for the 2nd FPO.
Q. What will be the Refund Policy for Business Opportunity?
A. There will be no refund policy on Business Opportunity as joining will
now become FREE.
Q. What will be the Product Refund Policy?
A. For all ABO’s, the current product refund policy remains unchanged.
In case a customer is not completely satisfied and wants to return the
products, he/she is entitled to return the products within 30 days from the
“date of delivery” for a full refund.
The refund policy is applicable only for products in marketable condition
and partially used (upto 30%), accompanied by invoice.
This policy will not apply to products that have been intentionally damaged
or misused.
Q. What will be the status of 50 PPV retail effort rule?
A. 50 PPV retail effort rule will now apply to all 6% and above. This means
that to earn differential commission, all 6% and above would need to do
minimum 50 PPV in that month.
Q. Will there be any change in the Renewal program?
A. No. The current renewal program remains unchanged.
Q. How will the change in joining fee impact the existing BSM policy on
the BSM that can be sold to the new joinee within first 30 days?
A. The current BSM policy states “A new ABO prior to, or at the time of
joining, and for a period of 30 days thereafter cannot be signed up for a
Standing Order BSM Program. During this time, however, the new ABO
can be sold BSM; provided the aggregate amount of all such sales does not
exceed 25% of the cost of joining the Amway business (i.e. not more than
Rs. 250/-).”
While the cost of joining “now” becomes “ZERO”, ABO can still sell the
Optional BSM to the new Joinee. However, the ABO need to ensure that the
new joinee/prospect has clearly understood that this BSM is “optional” and
not “mandatory” to join the Amway Business.
• PLEASE NOTE:
• Customer Receipt will now be “mandatory”. All ABOs to issue receipt to
customers. Customer Receipt Pads would be available at nominal cost at all
Amway offices.
Q. Will the customer/prospect be able to get details of the ABO who has
approached him?
A. Yes, we have developed a search on the Amway website which will allow
anyone to search for the ABO details by giving the ADA number or First &
Last Name. The search will give the ABO name and his address. It would
NOT give the telephone number of the ABO.
Q. Will I need to charge VAT on my invoice?
A. Please check whether your turnover has exceeded the threshold limit for
your state of operation, obtain registration accordingly, and issue invoice in
accordance with the VAT laws of the relevant state. Please consult your
legal adviser for specific state related VAT provisions and act accordingly.
