Payment Terms
Standard payment terms
The majority of suppliers require payment 15 days after we receive a statement, usually on the 1st of each month, so the payment rule is end of month plus 15. Some suppliers require payment 30 days after receipt of a statement. Some products require immediate payment at the time of booking (e.g. Low Cost Carriers), others are paid after travel. Airline tickets are paid weekly via IATA/BSP.
