Terms on Payment to Service Provider
Please find below the terms for payment from StringsSG to service partners, including the requirement for adherence to invoicing guidelines:
1. Payment Terms:
Payment from StringsSG to service provider's Stripe payout account will automatically occur once the client has made a payment. StringsSG funnels direct transfer of the due amount from the client to the service provider's Payout account setup on the StringsSG platform.
2. Payment Confirmation:
Upon completion of the service, the service provider must ensure that the client has made the full payment for the job. Service provider must verify the payment status on the StringsSG platform to confirm that the payment has been made in full. Failure to confirm payment after the service may delay the credit of earnings to the service provider's account and sometimes result in non-payment if StringsSG is unable to collect the payment from the client/service requester.
3. Payment to Service Provider's Bank Account:
Service provider can transfer the available balance from their payout account to their bank account or debit card depending on how they are setup on the platform.
