Impulse® 2.0 Platform Upgrade Incentive Program

Program Overview

The Impulse® 2.0 Upgrade Incentive Program rewards customers for transitioning from legacy instruments to the new Impulse® 2.0 platform. The program provides a credit toward the retail price of a new 2.0 system based on how long the customer has owned their legacy instrument.

Customer Retains Their Legacy Instrument

Under this Upgrade Incentive Program, the customer does not need to surrender or return their legacy Impulse® or Impulse IQ® instrument. The upgrade incentive is granted without requiring a trade-in.

This allows customers to receive full incentive value toward the purchase of a new Impulse® 2.0 or Impulse IQ 2.0 or IQ Connect System while keeping their existing legacy instrument for continued use or backup.

Incentive Structure (24‑Month Schedule)

• 50% incentive during the first 1–3 months of ownership.
  • Incentive begins decreasing after month 3.
  • Incentive declines evenly through month 24, reaching 25%.
  • No incentive is provided beyond 24 months of ownership.

Eligibility Requirements

• Legacy instrument must be a qualifying Impulse® or Impulse IQ® model.
  • Upgrade must be to an equivalent or higher-tier model.
  • Customer must provide serial number verification.
  • Proof of purchase statement is required.
  • Legacy instrument must have been purchased directly from the manufacturer.
  • Only the original purchaser may apply for the Upgrade Incentive.
  • Legacy instrument ownership must be verifiable at the time of upgrade request.

Example Scenario (Without ADA Tax Credit)

A customer owns a Legacy Impulse IQ® purchased 4 months ago for a Purchase “sale” Price of $3,895. They wish to upgrade to an Impulse IQ® 2.0 with a Retail Price of $6,495.

• Applicable Incentive Tier (4–6 months): 47%
• Upgrade Incentive Credit: 47% × $3,895 = $1,830
• Customer Price After Upgrade Incentive: $6,495 − $1,830 = $4,665

Customer Cost Without ADA Tax Credit: $4,665

Example Scenario (With ADA Tax Credit)

Using the same purchase details:

Legacy Instrument ADA Calculation:
• ADA Credit on Legacy Purchase Price: 50% × $3,895 = $1,948
• Actualized Cost of Legacy Instrument: $3,895 − $1,948 = $1,947

Impulse IQ® 2.0 ADA Calculation:
• Customer Price After Upgrade Incentive: $4,665
• ADA Credit on New Instrument: 50% × $4,665 = $2,333
• Actualized Cost of New Instrument: $4,665 − $2,333 = $2,333

Total Actualized Investment:
• Actualized Cost: Legacy IQ ($1,947) + IQ 2.0  ($2,333) = $4,280 for both Instruments

Disclaimer

Upgrade incentive must be applied toward an equivalent or higher-tier model. A Legacy Impulse® may be upgraded to an Impulse® 2.0, Impulse IQ® 2.0, or IQ Connect System. A Legacy Impulse IQ® may be upgraded only to Impulse IQ® 2.0 or the IQ Connect System. Credits cannot be applied toward a lower-tier instrument.

The Upgrade Incentive is limited to one use per individual serial-numbered instrument. Each legacy instrument maintains its own upgrade eligibility and incentive value. Multiple instruments may not be combined to increase or apply toward a single upgrade purchase.

If more than one legacy instrument was purchased together in a single transaction, the total purchase price will be divided by the number of instruments, and this allocated amount will be treated as the individual purchase price for each instrument when calculating the upgrade incentive.

Each instrument may only be used independently for one upgrade incentive except in cases where the customer is upgrading the same number of instruments as originally purchased. For example, if a customer purchased two Legacy Impulse IQ® instruments and wishes to upgrade to two Impulse IQ® 2.0 instruments, each legacy instrument may be applied to its corresponding upgrade.

The Upgrade Incentive may not be combined with any other offer, promotion, discount, or incentive program unless explicitly stated by the manufacturer.
