Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk

Payment and credit terms shape cash flow as much as unit price does for Box 3.

Buyers who treat payment and credit terms as a commercial discipline rather than an afterthought tend to hold margin for longer.

In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Box 3.

Why payment and credit terms matters on the Box 3

Standard practice is a deposit with balance before shipment for new accounts.

The most common mistake is optimising for the first order instead of the fourth, which is where Box 3 economics actually settle.

Established relationships may move to documentary credit or open terms.

Practical notes for buyers

Shops that receive a short briefing on payment and credit terms convert noticeably better than shops that only receive stock.

Retail staff rarely ask about payment and credit terms directly, but their questions almost always lead back to it.

Checklist

Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
Keep certificates current and filed against the exact model name.
Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.

Commercial terms

Agreeing a defect handling procedure before the first shipment removes emotion from later conversations.

Most long running accounts settle into a rhythm of monthly top ups with one larger seasonal build per year.

Carton (169 units)	Tier 1	14-21 days
