Gear Manufacturers Offer Special Savings to New PADI eLearning Students

To help bolster your training and equipment sales during this challenging time, PADI® is partnering with leading gear manufacturers to provide limited-time special offers to newly enrolled PADI eLearning® students. The goal is to incentivize consumers to enroll in a course and purchase the gear they need and want now.

Here’s how it works:

• Launching initially in the United States, PADI is executing an aggressive marketing campaign and promoting manufacturer-sponsored special offers to people who enroll in PADI eLearning between 1 June and 15 July 2020.
• Upon completing enrollment and dive shop affiliation, newly enrolled eLearners will receive offers based upon the brands carried by their affiliated PADI Dive Center or Resort.
• Participating brands include Huish Outdoors, Aqua Lung, Scubapro, Sherwood Scuba and Genesis Scuba. Only brands carried by the affiliated dive shop will be shared with the eLearner.
• To ensure all newly enrolled eLearners receive a special offer, PADI is also including a special offer from PADI Gear.
• Offers vary by manufacturer – but all include a revenue generating opportunity for PADI Dive Centers and Resorts. Direct business to consumer sales without a dive center/resort revenue-share is not allowed.
• This promotion will initially launch in the US, with consideration for global expansion given at a later date.
• Manufacturers are handling all redemption details, along with customer and dealer inquires specific to these offers. Dealers should contact their specific manufacturer(s) with any questions.

Offers available:

• Huish Outdoors: Save 15% on your gear purchase across all Huish Outdoors brands including Atomic Aquatics, BARE, Hollis, Oceanic, Stahlsac, Suunto and Zeagle
• Aqua Lung: Purchase an Aqua Lung BCD and Regulator and receive a free Airsource (offer valid in-store only)
• Scubapro: Receive 100% credit back on your mask, fins and snorkel purchase good toward your full package of a BCD, regulator and computer (offer valid in-store only)
• Sherwood: Save 25% on your new student personal equipment package (Sherwood mask, snorkel, fins, Akona boots and Huron LT mesh bag)
• Genesis: Save over $400 US on new student life support package – now only $999 US. Package includes Genesis Prana regulator and octopus, Genesis Origin BCD and Genesis Centauri Wrist Computer

This limited-time promotion launched in the U.S. on 1 June 2020 and will run through 15 July 2020. If you have additional questions, please contact your equipment manufacturer or your PADI Regional Manager for details.

Uniting together with leading equipment manufacturers is just one of the many ways PADI is working to help support your business during these challenges times. PADI Cares about you and we’ll get through this together.
