Payment terms decide how much risk you carry. A fair schedule ties payments to progress, so both sides stay motivated. Here is how to think about it.
Common payment structure
| Stage | Typical purpose |
|---|---|
| Advance on order | Confirms specification and starts procurement |
| On delivery of material | Equipment reaches site |
| On installation progress | Rails, machine and doors fitted |
| On testing and handover | Lift tested and delivered |
| Retention or final | After final inspection |
Exact terms vary; agree yours in writing.
Safe practices
- Do not pay a large advance without a detailed specification.
- Link each payment to a stage.
- Pay through traceable banking channels and keep receipts.
- Keep the signed quotation and contract.
