I Ordered the Wrong Product - How Can I Exchange it?

To exchange a product, please reorder the correct product and contact IDAutomation with the new order number and the original order number of the product being returned. IDAutomation will then refund the purchase price of the returned product according to the type of payment originally used after completing the Letter of Software Property Destruction Form. This is necessary so the licensing data is correct in the IDAutomation database.

How Many Licenses do I Need?

To determine how many licenses are needed, read Section 1 License Grant portion of the appropriate license agreement. Licenses may not be shared between companies except under the conditions of the Developer License. You may also request a quote by submitting the form located at: http://www.idautomation.com/buy/request-quote.html

Are There Discounts for Small and Non-Profit Companies or Educational Institutions?

IDAutomation offers the following discounts to companies that generate less that $5 Million annual revenue or funding:

  • Small Company Developer License is offered for half the price of the Developer License for all organizations with gross annual revenue or funding of less than 2 million U.S. Dollars or equivalent amount in a foreign currency. To qualify for the Small Company Developer License, send the signed Small Company Agreement located at http://www.idautomation.com/sca/ prior to purchase.

To qualify for the Mid-Size Company Developer License, send the signed Mid-Size Company Agreement located at http://www.idautomation.com/sca/mid-size.html prior to purchase.

VAT Tax Information for European Customers:

Because IDAutomation does not have an office in Europe, VAT tax is not added to an order. Most of IDAutomation’s European customers are businesses that are exempt from the VAT tax or they have a registered VAT ID, which allows them to pay the VAT tax directly to their government instead of adding it to the order. This is a common process in Europe and these customers should be familiar with that process.

GST Tax was Added to my Hardware Purchase:

Because IDAutomation does not have an office located in Canada, we are responsible for collecting GST Taxes. If you have a GST #, this tax can be exempted from your order if you send us a signed Drop Shipment Certificate.

The Order Form Automatically Adds Sales Tax Although we are Tax Exempt:

To exclude sales tax for customers with a billing address located in Florida, please send a copy of the tax-exempt certificate to IDAutomation so that we may set you up in our online store as tax exempt. Along with this certificate, please send the user name (email address) and initial password (which may be changed at login) to complete set up.

Is it Safe to Order Online with my Credit Card?

Ordering online by credit card is the fastest and safest method of receiving the product. All of the online order forms are located on an IDAutomation secure order server and have a high-grade encryption of RC4 128 bit. The browser will confirm that the small padlock icon in the status bar encrypts the web page; when at an encrypted secure site, the padlock is closed.

Our Extended Validation SSL gives users an easy visual confirmation of the security in our store. In many of the major browsers, the address bar will turn green and will display the name of the Extended Validation certificate owner, ensuring that the transaction is encrypted and that IDAutomation.com has been authenticated according to the most rigorous industry standards. In addition, the beginning URL of the encrypted secure site will begin with HTTPS instead of HTTP.

Can I get an Invoice Mailed to me?

IDAutomation's online store automatically generates invoices and receipts that are sent by email and should be printed by the customer. This transaction receipt may serve as an invoice or you may log back into your personal My Account page to print out an invoice. After logging back in, click on View Order under Recent Orders and click on Printable Version for the Invoice. If you need to have an invoice physically mailed, contact IDAutomation with the order number and complete mailing address.
