Evaluating a Proposed Trade Scheme Before Purchasing
Published · Updated · 2 min read
Evaluate a scheme as a proposed transaction with conditions, not as free profit. This guide concerns how to review an offer that actually exists; it does not announce an XpoAura promotion or authorize anyone to quote a discount.

Read the written offer first
Identify the issuer, products, eligibility period, qualifying event, exclusions, evidence requirements and decision process. Check whether eligibility depends on an order, invoice, payment or other event. If the wording is unclear, obtain clarification before counting an expected benefit.
Compare the extra commitment with your demand
List the additional stock or spending needed to qualify. Compare it with your own recorded demand, stock dates, storage and funds. A headline incentive should not replace a realistic purchasing decision.
Keep expected and confirmed benefits separate
Record an expected benefit as an assumption until the applicable conditions and approval are confirmed. Include associated delivery, handling or other costs in your own assessment. Do not publish confidential rates or treat a general scheme example as XpoAura's terms.
Plan the evidence before accepting
Ask how eligibility will be demonstrated and who will acknowledge a submission. Retain the actual offer version alongside relevant transaction references. For later claim tracking, use the scheme-claim guide.
Does meeting a purchase quantity guarantee payment of a benefit?
Read the complete applicable terms and obtain confirmation. This article does not decide eligibility or create an entitlement.
Can I pass an assumed discount to another buyer?
Do not promise terms you lack authority to offer.
