📋 Tender Overview
The Commission for the Control of Unfair Competition of Indecopi (CCD) provided recommendations for consumers in the face of the offers of products and services that are presented this week, for the Cyber Days. In this regard, he indicated that trade promotions should clearly indicate their duration and the minimum number of units of products available.
He also gave the following recommendations for online shopping:
Suppliers must provide customers with better terms of sale than they usually offer; for example, through price reductions, product quantity increases, contests, sweepstakes, exchanges or other similar events.
In the case of credit products, the amount of the initial payment, the total amount of interest, the applicable annual effective interest rate, and the detail of any additional charges must be included.
It must also include the total amount of the products or services, so the price must include any applicable taxes, fees or other charges. If the price is advertised in dollars, it must also be stated in soles, under the same conditions.
Where there are conditions and restrictions on access to sales promotions, these must be clearly and prominently disclosed in all advertisements.
Consumers should verify that the price charged matches the advertised price or includes the percentage discount offered.
It is important that the customer keeps the proof of payment or advertising of the offer or promotion, as these will serve as means of proof in the event of a possible claim.
