Payment Terms Guide - Northwest Custom Apparel

Pay On Pickup Most Common

The order must be paid in full when the customer picks it up. This is our most common term, used for the majority of local orders.

Standard Procedure

A 50% deposit or full Prepayment is required to begin production.
This applies especially to new customers or large, complex jobs.
The final balance is always due before the goods are released to the customer.

Prepaid

The order must be paid in full before any work begins. This is standard policy for all first-time customers, online orders, and any orders that require shipping.

Due on Receipt

Payment is due immediately when the customer receives our invoice. This is used for trusted, established clients when work is completed before payment, but no formal credit (like Net 30) is offered.

Net 10 / Net 15 / Net 30 Credit Required

These are credit terms offered only to pre-approved clients, such as schools, government agencies, and large corporations with established credit history. The number indicates the days the client has to pay in full from the invoice date.

No Charge Internal Only

Used for internal tracking of non-revenue orders such as: replacement orders, marketing samples, Hot Ticket orders, and WOW's.
