Payment terms depend on how you hire us.
Fixed packages (menu, hosting, SEO)
On /menu, /hosting, and /seo, checkout supports:
| Option | How it works |
|---|---|
| Pay in full | One Stripe payment; work starts after confirmation |
| Deposit | Partial payment now, balance due before launch or per invoice schedule |
| 12-month financing | Spread eligible one-time project fees across twelve monthly payments (consent required at checkout) |
| Subscribe | Monthly plans for hosting, SEO, retainers, and similar recurring services |
Deposits secure your slot and cover kickoff work. They are non-refundable once we begin — see refund policy.
Custom projects & quotes
For scoped work outside packages, we typically use:
| Structure | When we use it |
|---|---|
| 50% deposit / 50% at completion | Common for smaller custom projects |
| Milestone billing | Longer builds — e.g. deposit, mid-project, pre-launch |
| Retainer prepay | Monthly or quarterly for ongoing hours |
Everything is written in the proposal before work begins.
Methods & currency
We invoice in USD via Stripe (card and supported bank methods). Texas clients may owe applicable sales tax — we note that on the invoice.
