Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions procurement teams and legal officers ask most.
Three ways to pay
We support the three billing routes that council finance systems actually use. Card payment is available for quick one-off orders. Purchase order billing lets you raise a PO reference before any order is placed and consolidates charges on a monthly statement. Invoice terms give you Net 30 or Net 60 payment windows with settlement by bank transfer or Stripe-issued invoice — whichever your finance team prefers.
Card payment
Pay per order by card. No account setup needed — right for ad-hoc or low-volume orders.
Purchase order
Raise a PO reference before any order is placed. Orders appear on a monthly consolidated statement.
Invoice terms (Net 30 / Net 60)
Monthly invoicing on Net 30 or Net 60 terms. Settle by bank transfer or Stripe-issued invoice.
Fits your finance system
Our purchase order and invoice flows work with any standard council finance workflow — no integration required on your side. When you open an account, tell us your preferred billing mode and payment terms. We configure it on your account and it applies to every order your team places from that point onwards.
- Monthly consolidated statements with cost-centre-codeable line items
- PO reference captured at account level — applied to every order automatically
- Net 30 or Net 60 payment window, agreed at account setup
- Bank transfer or Stripe-issued invoice — your choice
