We have updated and restated the Independent Dealer Agreement and Dealer Policies & Procedures (G4000) to enhance clarity, reflect current business needs and better align with industry standards. These updates are intended to support a stronger, more transparent Dealer network. We’ve summarized the most important changes below:
- Clarified roles and responsibilities: Reinforces the independent contractor status of Dealers, outlines personal tax responsibilities, promotes ethical marketing of the AMSOIL Dealer opportunity and includes provisions for anti-spam compliance, legal compliance, class-action waiver and binding arbitration.
- Account protection period adjustment: Commercial and retail account protection periods have been changed from 15 months to 12 months to be consistent with the protection periods for Dealers and Preferred Customers.
- Dealer compensation and interference policies: Information about Dealer compensation and interference guidelines have been moved to standalone documents for ease of access and clarity. They will be posted in the Dealer Zone under Digital Library>Dealer Literature before July 1.
Each year, all Dealers must sign a new Independent Dealer Agreement. Dealers will be asked to sign the new agreement during the month their current agreement expires. We will begin using the updated agreement with current Dealers renewing in July 2025 and after. We encourage all Dealers to read the updated Dealer Agreement and Policies & Procedures, available in the Digital Library of the Dealer Zone. By continuing to operate your AMSOIL Dealership after July 1, 2025, you acknowledge and accept the updated terms.
