ClearSkai may offer in-house split-pay options for eligible one-time builds. Final scope and the exact split-pay schedule are confirmed in writing before work begins.
1) What split-pay covers
Split-pay typically covers the one-time build only. Hosting, domain renewal, email, and third-party integrations (CRMs, payment processors, scheduling tools, AI APIs, SMS credits, etc.) are billed separately at cost or per the signed agreement.
2) Sample split-pay schedule
Typical schedule for an eligible build is 50% up front (deposit), 25% at design approval, 25% at launch / handover. For larger or longer projects we may offer a 4-payment schedule (e.g. 40% deposit, 20% design, 20% build milestone, 20% launch). Final percentages, milestone dates, and any discounts are confirmed in writing in your signed agreement before work begins.
2) Operational access vs. ownership transfer
During split-pay, you may receive a live deployment on your domain for operational use. Full ownership transfer — including source code repository transfer and client-owned hosting transfer (e.g., GitHub, Vercel) where applicable — occurs after final payment clears and all balances are paid in full.
3) Missed payments & late fees
If a payment is missed, work and managed services may be paused or suspended until the account is brought current. Invoices not paid within 60 days of the due date may incur a 5% late fee on the outstanding balance, applied once after the 60-day mark and monthly thereafter until resolved.
4) No vendor lock-in
After full payment and ownership transfer, you can maintain the site and code independently (subject to third-party terms and fees). We do not hold your domain, code, or hosting hostage.
