Payment Terms

PAYMENT FOR SERVICES

​

The Client will pay compensation to the Service Provider for the Services at the agreed rate and for all reasonable and pre-approved out-of-pocket expenses that are incurred in connection with the performance of the Services.

The Service Provider will provide the Client with a final invoice which is to include a supporting timesheet detailing billable time, reimbursable expenses, and any other fees related to the assigned work.

​

Pre-paid hours are non-refundable and are valid for that calendar month only. Ad-hoc hours are billed in increments of 15 minutes.  All pre-paid hours are billed in actual time.

 

Postage/courier fees are not included in our hourly or monthly retainer rates and will be billed for separately.

Any non-standard office supplies are not included in our hourly or monthly retainer rates and will be billed for separately.

​

Payment terms are designed to ensure a smooth and transparent billing process for my clients. For new clients, we require a 50% deposit of the estimated first invoice prior to the commencement of work. Subsequent invoices will be generated on the first working day of each month, with credit terms of 7 days. We request that payments be made electronically, such as through BACS, within 7 days of the invoice date.

​

All invoices are to be settled within seven (7) days of invoice date unless otherwise agreed. 

 

Payments not received by the due date will result in work cessation. The Service Provider reserves the right to refuse completion or delivery of work until past due balances are paid. All materials or property belonging to the Client, as well as work performed, may be retained as security until all just claims against the Client are satisfied.

 

In the event that the Client fails to payment to the Service Provider of any amount due under this Agreement on or before the due date, unpaid invoices will incur interest in line with Government Guidelines.
