Late Payment Policy

Invoices not paid by the due date are subject to a late fee of [1.5%] per month ([18%] annually) on the outstanding balance. If payment is more than [60] days overdue, the account may be referred to collections, and Client shall be responsible for all reasonable collection costs and attorney fees.

Late fee tip: Including late fee language on every invoice — even before a client is late — sets expectations and dramatically reduces late payments. The standard range is 1-2% per month. Check your state's usury laws for maximum allowable rates.

Thank you for your business!
