KMP - price protection explained

Last updated on Dec 19, 2025

Prices can change over time, especially for electronics and imported goods.

Keep My Price (KMP) is price protection that helps you secure today’s price while you pay small small.

“Free price protection” vs “KMP service charge” (important)

To keep things simple:

  • Free price protection = a short window at the start of your plan (example: first 30 days) where your price is protected at no extra charge.

  • KMP = the paid price protection that continues the protection beyond the free period.

Instead of saying “free KMP,” we say free price protection.

KMP is ON by default

On many plans, KMP is ON by default.

If you try to switch it off, Motito will show a message explaining what it means.

How KMP fees work (simple)

KMP is a service charge, not interest.

The fee is calculated based on:

  • your item price

  • your plan duration

  • sometimes the item category

Then it is spread across your installments, so you don’t pay it as a single big charge.

What happens if the price goes up?

If you are protected (KMP ON or within free price protection):

  • your price stays the same

  • Motito/vendor handles the difference

If you choose to go without protection (KMP OFF after the free period):

  • your price can change later

  • if price rises, we notify you and show your options before anything changes

  • if you cancel after choosing to go without protection, it may follow standard cancellation rules

We will never silently auto‑accept a higher price for you.

What happens if the price goes down?

If the market price drops significantly while KMP is active, Motito may share part of the savings with you as Store Credit or Motito Points (depending on the campaign).
