// payment

A deposit, then milestones.

We work on a deposit plus milestone payments. You pay a deposit before work starts, a payment as you accept each milestone, and a small holdback after launch. Hosting, hardware and outside services are billed at cost.

How payment works

// questions

How do we pay?: A deposit to start, then a payment as you accept each milestone, and a holdback once the warranty ends. Invoiced in CAD, paid by card, ACH or PAD, wire, EFT, Interac e-Transfer, or USDC.
What if we need something not listed?: Open the package in the estimator and add it. You see the new price at once. Or ask us, and we will price the change before any work starts.
Is hosting included?: No. We can run it for you for a monthly price, or hand it over to run on your own account. The estimator shows both.
