Payment Terms
Standard payment terms
Most frequently used payment terms are due in 30 days (V030). Some contracts contain a fortnightly payment run clause that states Suppliers accept that BAT’s payment processing centres operate a fortnightly payment run system and that, if the due date for payment of the Valid Invoice falls after the fortnightly payment run day in the relevant week, the Valid Invoice will be paid on the following fortnightly payment run day. This clause is agreed with Suppliers as part of the contract negotiation process before it is implemented.
