Product Warranty


Standard warranty statement
IGEL Technology GmbH warrants its products to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of two years after the date of purchase. Refer to our website in the Service & Support area for exact warranty terms and conditions. Date of purchase will be determined by a valid proof of purchase. The criteria for a valid proof of purchase is that it must be machine printed and include the following information:
  • Company Name and full address of Reseller
  • Purchase date
  • Model number(s) of product(s) purchased
  • Serial number(s) of product(s) purchased
In the event that a valid proof of purchase is not available the warranty period will be determined by the date of manufacture.

Date of manufacture is based on a date-coded serial number printed on a label usually attached to the rear of each product.


Warranty extension by registering
The standard warranty on IGEL Thin Client Terminals is two years.

The Buyer Plan extends all the benefits that you receive during the first and second year of ownership from the Manufacturer’s warranty, through the third year of ownership. The Buyer Plan is free, however, the "catch" is that you need to register your product within 90 days from the date of purchase. Once you have registered with us, all of your subsequently purchased IGEL terminals will automatically have their warranty extended for one year as long as you can provide proof of purchase! It’s that simple! Once we receive your IGEL Warranty Registration, we will send you an according confirmation and you will be covered for three years. The warranty extension is not associated with any further costs.
