40-19-106. General requirements of rental-purchase agreements.

(a) Each rental-purchase agreement shall be in writing, dated, signed by the consumer and merchant and completed as to all essential provisions as required by this act.

(b) The agreement shall be made clearly and conspicuously with disclosures required by W.S. 40-19-107(a)(i), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) grouped together, segregated from all other provisions and not containing any information not directly related to the disclosures. The agreement shall be designated "rental-purchase agreement."

(c) The merchant shall deliver to the consumer a completed copy of the agreement for the consumer to retain at consummation of the transaction.

(d) The rental-purchase agreement shall contain the names and addresses of the merchant and consumer.

(e) The merchant shall disclose to the consumer the information required by W.S. 40-19-107 on the face of the agreement above the line for the consumer's signature. If a disclosure becomes inaccurate as a result of any act, occurrence or agreement by the consumer after the delivery of the required disclosures, the resulting inaccuracy shall not be considered to be a violation of this act.

(f) A merchant who advertises rental-purchase agreements in any language other than English shall have rental-purchase agreements printed in each language as the merchant advertises and shall make those rental-purchase agreements available to consumers.
