We encourage you to read the VPiX sales policy as you are agreeing to this sales policy when you make any purchase at VPiX and when you accept the VPiX VULA on activating your VPiX back office account.
VPiX provides Zoom demos to educate prospects on the proper use and the image limitations of our entry-level 360 walk around vehicle systems before purchase. 30-day customer returns are only allowed if the originating sales agreement states the customer has 30-days to try/use the equipment.
Before VPiX can accept an equipment return, the customer must request an equipment RMA number and must ship back all gear in its original packing materials. The customer will use UPS ground and will ship back the equipment at their cost, including adequate insurance to cover the full retail cost of the equipment should the carrier damage the return to the VPiX customer return center address.
Equipment that fails under normal customer use shall be exchanged with a new product (providing the gear sold was not part of a closeout, trade show demo, open box, or another special promotion). New equipment that has failed within 30 days that has been found to have been damaged by the customer, via accident or on purpose damage will not be exchanged. Refunds will not include the cost of training, DMS, or Website integration. If the customer purchase was made via a credit card, the refund is made on the same card, less any deductions for training, shipping, software integrations, and/or any applicable restocking fees.
Customer placing an order for any custom car studio is required to provide a deposit of 50% for the turntable and payment for any on-site measurement surveys and 3D site plans, including specs for contractor and electrical setup.

At VPiX, we are committed to providing seamless VDP (Vehicle Detail Page) integrations through our MotorStreet platform, collaborating with a wide array of third-party website providers, including, but not limited to Dealer.com (DDC), Dealer Inspire, Dealer Spike, eLeads, Jazel, HubSpot, and others. Our goal is to facilitate the best possible experience for end-users, ensuring that MotorStreet 360 experiences are responsive and accessible on a variety of mobile devices.
Despite our rigorous testing procedures and our efforts to work closely with new website providers for optimal VDP and SRP integrations, VPiX cannot be held liable for any discrepancies or performance issues that may arise from third-party website code. This includes, but is not limited to, challenges related to 100% responsiveness on certain mobile devices, especially those operating with older systems, outdated web browsers, or those that have third-party software, such as popup blockers, and other 3rd party software which might impair the viewing experience by end customers shopping for a new or used vehicle.
VPiX's responsibility is strictly limited to the provision and support of the MotorStreet VDP integration as delivered. While VPiX will make good faith efforts to work with third website providers, we are not responsible for fixing or modifying third-party website code that may impact the display or functionality of our iFrame within their website pages. Users are encouraged to consult with their website provider to address any such issues that fall outside the scope of VPiX’s service and support.
By integrating MotorStreet VDP into their platforms, clients and third-party integrators acknowledge this limitation of liability and agree that VPiX will not be responsible for resolving issues directly related to third-party website code and its compatibility with our MotorStreet iFrame solutions.

Prices shown are in U.S. dollars. If you are paying for your order with an international credit card, the purchase price may fluctuate with exchange rates. In addition, your bank or credit card issuer may charge you foreign conversion charges and bank-wire fees, including VAT or duties, which may also increase the overall cost of your purchase. VPiX cannot absorb VAT or duties when your purchase arrives. Paying for these costs is the sole responsibility of the Customer.
All customer credit cards are guaranteed safe as we only use 100% PCI-compliant methods for any electronic (card) payment method.
Peace of Mind: PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliance refers to 12 security standards businesses must use when accepting, transmitting, processing, and storing credit card data.
This requirement involves encryption of cardholder data, managing firewalls, updating antivirus software, and assigning unique IDs to each person with computer access.
The Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council, an independent body, created by the card networks in 2006, manages PCI security standards, while the enforcement of these standards falls to the card networks and payment processors. Every merchant, regardless of the number of card transactions processed, must be PCI compliant. The card networks (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, etc.) can be contacted directly for information about their specific PCI compliance programs.
VPiX uses QuickBooks, TotalPay (TSYS), and BrainTree Payments to process customer credit cards. At no time does VPiX keep any customer’s credit cards in an insecure location.
For US-based customers, VPiX will use UPS Ground. Delivery of your order can be impacted by many events beyond VPiX’s control once it leaves our facilities. VPiX cannot be held liable for late deliveries. VPiX cannot replace equipment if your carrier drops off your VPiX purchase on your doorstep and it’s later stolen by porch pirates. VPiX always ships purchases above $500 with a required “customer signature.” If your local carrier ignores this, VPiX cannot and will not be liable for a replacement or refund.
In some cases, VPiX may have to replace an accessory in your order, such as external lights, tripods, or some other item with a similar product. This is normal, as supply chains are still impacted due to shortages that may have been created during the COVID-19 pandemic. VPiX will never ship a cheaper or inferior product to you. All accessories VPiX may substitute are of equal or better quality than the accessory advertised.
