To ensure a smooth and professional working relationship, the following payment terms apply to all projects:

1. Deposits

A 50% non-refundable deposit is required before any work begins. This secures your spot and covers initial time and resources.

The remaining balance is due upon final approval and before any final deliverables are released.

Note: For projects under $500, full payment may be required upfront.

2. Accepted Payment Methods

I accept the following secure payment options:

✅ Credit/Debit Card via Square

✅ Zelle

❌ PayPal/Venmo are not accepted due to previous security concerns

3. Late or Unpaid Invoices

Payment is due within 5 business days of invoice date.

Late payments may incur a 10% late fee and can delay the project timeline.

If payment is not received within 15 days, work will be paused, and the account may be referred to collections or legal remedies pursued.

4. Tips & Bonuses

Tips are never expected but always appreciated! If you’d like to add a tip, please include it during final payment or notify me in advance so it can be included in the invoice.

5. Final Deliverables

Final files, access credentials, or live launch of any websites/designs will be provided only after the final balance is paid in full.
