Dear LifeWave Brand Partner, 

As part of our plans to support and sustain future growth, LifeWave has been investing time and resources to enter the Korean market including recently submitting an application for an MLM license.   

Properly registering and opening any new market is a vital and delicate matter that requires strict adherence to country-specific application protocols and the avoidance of any prohibited pre-launch activities. Korea is no exception. 

As we have communicated on numerous occasions, failure on the part of LifeWave or its Brand Partners to conduct themselves properly and ethically during this registration process can result in revocation of the MLM license and/or other serious complications that can delay or irreparably damage LifeWave's ability to conduct business in Korea. 

Unfortunately, we continue to learn of more Brand Partners who are engaging in pre-marketing activities including contacting, sampling, and enrolling people in Korea. Meetings are being held, social media posts are being made, and even product is being delivered.  

Be advised that such pre-market activity puts the company’s efforts to open Korea at risk and could result in serious negative consequences for LifeWave and its future growth. As such, it is imperative to remind you that pre-marketing activities are strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated. 

In Sections 5.5 and 8.8 of the LifeWave policies, it states the following: 

5.5 Global Sponsoring: A LifeWave Member may ONLY sponsor people from other countries where LifeWave is currently doing business. Sponsoring of new Members in Countries/Markets wherein the company is not currently open or registered to do business is prohibited. 

8.8 Unopened Markets: Members are prohibited from purchasing products to be shipped to unopened markets or countries or importing/exporting LifeWave products into unopened markets or countries. Accordingly, Members may not sell products to anyone who has any intent of shipping or diverting products to unopened markets or countries. 

As a LifeWave Brand Partner, you are under obligation according to the P&P’s you’ve accepted to always conduct yourself ethically and professionally and to refrain from any type of activity that is detrimental to the stability, longevity, and long-term growth and success of LifeWave.  

Therefore, we warn that any violation of these policies through any pre-marketing activity will result in swift and decisive action against your LifeWave account, up to and potentially including suspension or termination.  

To protect its future in Korea, LifeWave will take a strict stance on prohibiting any pre-market activity with a zero-tolerance position. 

LifeWave will communicate to all Brand Partners when the market is officially open to begin sales and sponsoring activities in Korea. Until this time, it is imperative that all Policies are honored. You will be advised when the Korea market is open to start engaging in marketing activity.

If you have questions about pre-market activity and these policies, don’t hesitate to reach out to the LifeWave Member Success team at compliance@lifewave.com. 

Thank you.
