Some lenders require payment to me made before the close of business on your due date. This means that if your payment is due on March 1, the lender will require the payment be received and processed before the close of business on March 1. Other lenders require payments to be postmarked but not necessarily posted by the due date.

What are Accounting Payment Terms?
Accounting payment terms are the payment rules imposed by suppliers on their customers. Payment terms are imposed to ensure that payments are received by suppliers within a reasonable period of time. Discount terms may be allowed in order to accelerate cash collections. A large customer may use its purchasing power to force a supplier to agree to terms that are more favorable to the customer, such as a longer period of time in which to pay the supplier, or relaxed rules for returning goods. There are three possible components to accounting payment terms, which are:
Discount terms. This is a two-part statement, where the first item is the percentage discount allowed, and the second item is the number of days within which payment can be made in order to receive the discount. Thus, terms of '1/10' mean that a discount of 1% can be taken if payment is made within 10 days.
Net terms. 'Net' means that the full amount is due for payment. Thus, terms of 'net 20' mean that full payment is due in 20 days. The term may be abbreviated to 'n' instead of 'net'.
End of month terms. The abbreviation 'EOM' means that the payer must issue payment within a certain number of days following the end of the month. Thus, terms of 'net 10 EOM' mean that payment must be made in full within 10 days following the end of the month.
The following table contains a number of standard accounting payment terms, what they mean, and the effective annual interest rate being offered (if any).
| Credit Terms | Explanation | Effective Interest |
| Net 10 | Pay in 10 days | None |
| Net 30 | Pay in 30 days | None |
| Net EOM 10 | Pay within 10 days of month-end | None |
| 1/10 Net 30 | Take 1% discount if pay in 10 days, otherwise pay in 30 days | 18.2% |
| 2/10 Net 30 | Take 2% discount if pay in 10 days, otherwise pay in 30 days | 36.7% |
| 1/10 Net 60 | Take 1% discount if pay in 10 days, otherwise pay in 60 days | 7.3% |
| 2/10 Net 60 | Take 2% discount if pay in 10 days, otherwise pay in 60 days | 14.7% |
The effective interest rate stated in the preceding table is based on the following calculation:
Discount %/(1-Discount %) x (360/(Full allowed payment days - Discount days)) = Effective interest rate
A customer's continuing non-compliance with payment terms may lead to a supplier's decision to stop offering credit terms to that customer.

For clients who may have difficulty repaying, banks will help you find the best solution to continue repaying your loans.
Instead of a comprehensive solution, which is the deferral of loan repayments, the focus will be on the individual approach of banks to clients. The vast majority of clients who are currently ending their deferral will continue to pay without any problems.
5 email design tips for the perfect email every time in. This was stated on Thursday after the meeting of the Ministry of Finance (MF) of the Slovak Republic with the Slovak Banking Association (SBA), the head of the Ministry of Finance Eduard Heger (OĽANO) together with the State Secretary of the Ministry of Finance Marcel Klimek.
Repayment of loans
“To date, 134,132 clients have requested a deferral of payments. That gro, more than 100,000, requested a postponement in April and May last year. In December, it was just over 2,000 clients, “ calculated by Klimek. According to him, the need for this measure is thus fundamentally declining.
According to Heger, most clients took advantage of the deferral of payments in April and May last year, while a moratorium of up to 9 months is possible. January and February will be the period when clients will return to repayment. The Minister stated that most clients in Slovakia requested a 9-month deferral. “We already have information today that most of these clients who return, in the order of 95%, will have no problem getting back and paying their installments,”

stressed.
Tailor-made solution
According to Heger, the banks will help the remaining clients who could have problems with repayment to find the best possible way to continue repaying the loans. Klimek remarked that most of them had already received a tailor-made solution so that their financial situation would not suffer.
“Only about 0.7% of the total volume of all clients is negatively affected, which is not significantly defined compared to the current framework,” Klimek said, adding that clients have financial problems even in situations where the economy is growing.
“Today we have agreed, instead of sticking to blanket solutions that do not make sense in these numbers, that the SBA, through its members, will apply a very sensitive individual approach for each individual client in order to create the best possible conditions for the repayment of his loans. , “ Klimek clarified.
Law of the lex corona
Heger explained that in the spring of 2020 they decided to create a lex corona law, which, among other things, created the possibility to request a deferral of loan repayments, without a symptom that may disadvantage clients in the future. According to him, this law is linked to an emergency situation. As the emergency situation still persists and the lex corona continues to apply, clients who have not yet requested may, until 31 March, request a one-off deferral of payments for a maximum of 9 months, which will be asymptomatic.
According to Heger, the Ministry of Finance records individual cases of clients when the deferral of installments turned into a negative entry in the register. The Minister expects the banks to comply with the agreements and rules, which should be remedied. He also pointed out that there is the National Bank of Slovakia (NBS), which oversees and solves similar matters on an individual basis. “If you have such an experience, complain. That needs to be addressed, there are tools for it today, “
addressed Heger to the clients concerned.
