Full Payment vs 50/50 for Vape Hardware Orders

Short answer: ready-stock orders prepared for dispatch in 1–2 days require full payment before order arrangement. Custom orders with a lead time longer than 7 days use a 50% deposit to begin production and a 50% balance before shipment. Company-to-company payments are made by SWIFT or SEPA bank transfer. If bank transfer is not available for your account, contact Leo on WhatsApp to confirm an alternative payment method for the order.

Payment Terms by Order Type

Order typePayment scheduleWhen the order is arranged
Ready-stock order with 2–3 day dispatch100% payment before order arrangementAfter stock, quotation, freight basis, and PI are confirmed
Custom order with lead time over 7 days50% deposit, 50% balance before shipmentProduction begins after the deposit and confirmed specification

The payment rule follows the order route, not simply the quantity. A larger ready-stock order can still require full payment because it is prepared for immediate dispatch. A custom order uses the 50/50 structure because production occurs over a longer period.

Why Ready-Stock Orders Require Full Payment

Ready-stock orders move quickly: the stock is confirmed, the buyer approves the PI, and the warehouse prepares the order for dispatch. Full payment is required before arrangement so the confirmed stock can be allocated and the order can move into preparation without a second payment stage.

Before paying, the buyer should check the model, capacity, quantity, color, unit price, freight basis, destination, and payment recipient shown on the PI.

How the 50/50 Custom Schedule Works

  1. The buyer sends the model, capacity, quantity, interface, color, logo, packaging, and destination requirements.
  2. QQVape confirms the specification, quotation, lead time, and PI.
  3. The buyer pays a 50% deposit.
  4. Production or customization begins.
  5. QQVape provides the agreed inspection details.
  6. The buyer pays the remaining 50% balance.
  7. Freight is arranged and the order ships.
Important: The 50/50 schedule applies only to custom orders with a lead time longer than 7 days. Ready stock uses full payment before arrangement.
