Price protection

With Price Protection, if You buy an eligible item with Your covered UBS Visa Infinite Business card Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account in the United States and see the identical eligible item available for less in another retail store’s printed Advertisement or non-auction Internet Advertisement within ninety (90) days of the Date of Purchase, You can be reimbursed the difference up to five hundred dollars ($500.00) per item and up to fifteen ($1,500.00) a year.

You are eligible for this benefit if You are a valid cardholder of an eligible U.S. issued card and You charge either a portion or the entire purchase price of the eligible item to Your Account or rewards program earned on Your covered Account toward the purchase. You will only be reimbursed up to the amount charged to Your Account or the program limit.

Price Protection is secondary to and in excess of store policies offering a lowest-price guarantee or any other form of refund for price differences. Only items Advertised by authorized dealers in the United States apply. Price differences involving manufacturing and/or merchant rebates, shipping and handling fees, and sales tax, if any, are not covered by the Price Protection benefit.
