For garden sofa orders, payment schedules should be connected to clearly documented production and inspection milestones instead of relying only on calendar dates. Agree on the deposit, remaining balance, and payment conditions with the supplier before placing the order.
Suitable payment triggers may include approval of the final specifications, completion of production, and a satisfactory pre-shipment inspection. Records such as signed specifications, production updates, inspection reports, and approved photos can help confirm that each milestone has been achieved before funds are released. If payment is arranged by TT, include these requirements in the written purchase agreement.
