INSTALLMENT PAYMENT POLICY

Last Updated: 05/2026

At The Branding Shop Co., installment plans are offered on select high-level projects to provide more flexible investment options while still protecting the structure, workflow, and operational flow of the studio.

Installment plans are designed to support intentional movement not delayed commitment.

By selecting a payment plan at checkout, you agree to all terms outlined below.

1. PAYMENT PLANS ARE AVAILABLE ON SELECT PROJECTS ONLY

Installment options are only available on select high-ticket service projects inside the shop.

Not all services qualify for payment plans.

Payment plans are not available for:

  • Clarity Calls

  • Workday Sessions

  • Priority Execution Support

  • Quick Support Services

  • Lower-ticket offers

  • Any qualifying service under the required minimum threshold

Eligible projects may offer:

  • Pay in Full

  • Deposit + Automatic Installments

The Branding Shop Co. reserves the right to modify or remove installment availability at any time.

2. YOUR INITIAL PAYMENT IS REQUIRED AT CHECKOUT

To officially secure your project:

  • Your initial payment must be completed during checkout

  • Your project is not confirmed until payment is successfully processed

  • Your timeline and production window are reserved only after payment confirmation

This payment secures:

  • studio availability

  • production scheduling

  • operational preparation

  • project planning

  • strategy allocation

All payments made toward installment-based projects are non-refundable.

3. ALL FUTURE INSTALLMENTS ARE AUTOMATICALLY CHARGED

When selecting a payment plan:

  • Your payment method is securely stored through the checkout system

  • Future installments are automatically charged based on the agreed payment schedule

  • Automatic payment reminders and receipts are sent through the platform directly

No manual invoices, payment reminders, or custom installment schedules are provided.

4. FAILED PAYMENTS AUTOMATICALLY PAUSE PROJECTS

If a scheduled payment fails:

  • Your project is automatically paused

  • Work cannot continue until the payment issue is resolved

  • You may be required to re-enter the production queue depending on studio availability

Project timelines are not guaranteed after failed or delayed installment payments.

5. MULTIPLE FAILED PAYMENTS MAY RESULT IN PROJECT TERMINATION

If repeated payment failures occur:

  • Your project may be terminated

  • All payments made to date remain non-refundable

  • Your production slot may be released

  • Remaining deliverables may be withheld until payment obligations are resolved

The Branding Shop Co. reserves the right to discontinue work on projects with unresolved payment issues.

6. PAYMENT PLANS DO NOT EXTEND PROJECT TIMELINES

Installment schedules do not affect:

  • production timelines

  • delivery expectations

  • revision windows

  • communication expectations

  • operational scheduling

Projects continue moving according to the agreed production timeline unless interrupted by failed payments, missing communication, or delayed approvals.

7. PAYMENT PLANS CANNOT BE MODIFIED AFTER PURCHASE

Once a payment plan is selected:

  • installment schedules cannot be manually adjusted

  • payment dates cannot be changed

  • payment plans cannot be paused or restructured

  • custom installment arrangements are not offered

The agreed schedule continues automatically until the remaining balance is paid in full.

8. FINAL FILES AND PROJECT TRANSFERS REQUIRE FULL PAYMENT

Final project delivery, transfers, exports, or release of final assets will not be completed until the remaining balance has been fully paid.

This includes but is not limited to:

  • website transfers

  • final brand assets

  • strategy documents

  • campaign systems

  • marketing playbooks

  • launch materials

  • editable design files

9. CLIENT RESPONSIBILITY

Clients are responsible for:

  • maintaining an active payment method

  • ensuring sufficient funds are available

  • keeping billing information current

  • reviewing automated payment confirmations and reminders

Failed payments caused by expired cards or insufficient funds still fall under this policy.

9. AGREEMENT TO TERMS

By selecting a payment plan at checkout, you acknowledge that you:

  • understand and agree to automatic recurring charges

  • accept responsibility for all scheduled payments

  • understand that installment payments are non-refundable
