Co-op

Can I use Co-op funds to attend the event?

Yes. If you pre-register, partners and distributors can get a $300 Co-op allowance for this event for each employee and end user that you wish to sponsor. Silver and Bronze partners and your end user guests can be sponsored by the regional MDF fund. To get this $300 allowance, please enter the promotional code: CPX08COOP within "Discount Code" on the "Summary and Payments" page during online registration.

The $300 is a fee that will be directly discounted at the time you or your customer registers. No additional reimbursements apply, so no claims are required in 2008. You can not use co-op if you register on-site the day of the event. There is no limit to the number of end user guests that a Check Point partner or distributor can sponsor through Co-op.

Can I use Co-op to cover Conference expenses beyond the approved allowance?
No.
Do I need to open a Co-op project for the approved allowance?
No. Please use the above discount codes in the discount field during the online registration process so that you get the appropriate allowance. If you do not have enough funds in H2 2008, it will be charged to H1 2008.
Do I need to file a claim after the event?
