FAQ for Commercial Furniture Businesses Offering Instalment Payments

Instalment payments let business customers split a furniture invoice into instalments (often over 3, 6, or 9 months) while you supply and install as normal. The buyer selects an instalment plan at checkout or at quote stage, then pays monthly. It’s designed for businesses purchasing fit-outs, desks, seating, storage, and breakout furniture—without needing a traditional trade account.

Yes. Offering instalments can be used on project orders like office fit-outs, boardroom packages, ergonomic seating upgrades, and multi-site rollouts. It’s especially useful when customers need to commit to the right scope upfront (to meet deadlines or secure pricing) but don’t want to pay the full invoice in one hit.

With instalment payments, the supplier is paid upfront and in full, while the customer repays PaidTerms over time. That means you can improve cash flow without extending in-house terms or carrying the receivable on your balance sheet.

Instalment payments are built to reduce risk for the supplier because PaidTerms typically assesses the buyer and manages repayment. That means you’re not relying on “trust” or chasing overdue invoices as part of the instalment plan. The intent is that repayment risk sits with PaidTerms—not the furniture supplier.

When buyers can spread payments, they’re less likely to cut scope or delay decisions. That often leads to larger fit-outs, more complete packages (desks + seating + storage), and fewer last-minute removals at quote stage. Instead of discounting to win the job, suppliers can use payment flexibility to improve conversion and lift average order value.
