Preorder Program Details & FAQ
Why should I Preorder a Glide?
We’re committed to building Glide transparently and openly with and for our community.
As a result, we believe that it’s fair to offer special preorder pricing to our earliest supporters in exchange for their show of support. We believe that getting to know our customers, their needs, and their lived experiences is a crucial part of the process of co-creating a technology with such significant potential impact as Glide.
By preordering your Glide, you will be a part of that development and learning process – to the extent that you wish!
Who is Glide for, and who is it not for?
Glide is designed to assist anyone whose sight loss impacts their ability to navigate outdoor and indoor environments safely and independently. This includes blind and low-vision individuals, people with temporary sight loss, night blindness, and others.
Glide is meant to guide you, and it does not provide support for balance in any way.
Glide is not built to be used with a support cane, walker, rollator or wheelchair. We believe it to be unsafe and strongly advise against the use of Glide with any of these or other balance support devices. We are considering future models that could be compatible with these support aids.
How does my Preorder work?
When you preorder a Glide, you’re getting in at a discounted price in return for being our earliest support before we fully bring the product to market. Our earliest Preorder customers (Pioneers and Founding Gliders) will be among the first in line to receive theirs when we begin shipping.
Preorder customers also have a unique opportunity to be a part of our design, innovation, and iteration process. We’ll be asking our preorder community for feedback, sharing regular updates on product development, and working to ensure that Glide meets your and our expectations before we deliver.
Who can Preorder? Is Glide worldwide?
Preorders will only available to residents of the U.S., Canada, and U.K. Given the logistics and costs around shipping and importing a new device like Glide, as well as localization needs for the device, it will take us a bit of time to have Glide available worldwide.
However, rest assured we are working on making this happen. If you are located outside of the U.S., Canada or the U.K, you will be the first to know when Glide is available for preorder in your region, and we will be offering you a Founding Glider discount or other perks and benefits at that time for being one of our earliest supporters! We will publish international availability dates in the near future.
Glide and its systems will be English first, and we will work from there to localize for additional common languages.
What about VAT/IVA tax for non-US customers?
Glide is a new category of device, and as a result the VAT/IVA tax implications and potential exemptions are not entirely clear, and differ from country to country. In some countries, Glide may be fully tax-exempt, while in others it may not be.
Because we do not want to hold up your excitement to Preorder your Glide, and we certainly do not wish to overcharge any customer, we will not be adding VAT/IVA on your initial payment if you are the in the UK or Canada.
However, please note that we may need to come back to certain UK and Canadian customers to collect VAT/IVA tax before we ship your device. This will happen once we fully work out Glide’s tax liabilities, and we are confident we are charging you correct amount for your location. As always, we invite our community to reach out to us if you have expertise around this in your specific country, and appreciate your understanding!
