For stock suppliers, payment terms typically commence from the date the goods are received in our warehouse.

Shorter payment terms may be agreed with freelancers and sole traders as part of commercial negotiations.

If due dates fall on a weekend or bank holiday, they will be paid on the next working day.

Due to cut-off dates on weekly payment runs, some payments may be paid 1-4 days after their due date. These payments have been reported as ‘not been paid within agreed terms’ above. Payments made 1-4 days after their due date account for circa 75% of the late payments total.

Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?
