Payments With TreySourcing

How Payment Works

Know what you're paying for, when payment is due, and where the money is going before you send it.

Payment terms vary by service plan and project. Before you pay, we confirm the amount, currency, payment route and beneficiary details. For managed business, the agreed payment plan and actual payment records stay tied to the relevant order or service arrangement.

Move Forward

Your PI or payment instruction shows the applicable amount, currency, beneficiary and payment reference. Planned amounts and actual receipts or payments are recorded separately so the payment trail can be checked against the underlying transaction.

Payment Security Notice

Make sure the beneficiary, account details and currency match the PI, invoice or official payment instructions from TreySourcing. We do not change payment instructions through chat alone. If anything is different, contact info@treysourcing.com before paying.

Your Service Plan Matters

Flexible Payment Route

Client → Supplier or Client → TreySourcing → Supplier

If Plans Change

Changes, Cancellations & Refunds

Refunds depend on what work has already been completed, what costs have already been committed, and what money has actually been received or recovered.

01
Unused and uncommitted funds remain refundable.

We do not keep unused project funds simply because a project is cancelled.

02
Work performed and committed costs are non-refundable.

This includes completed services and third-party costs already incurred or committed.

03
Recovered funds are handled as an actual refund or agreed credit.

If a supplier or service provider actually returns money to us, the recovered amount is recorded against the relevant transaction and returned to you or applied as an agreed credit, subject to the applicable transaction terms.

04
Already-incurred transaction fees are non-refundable.

This includes bank, platform, currency-conversion and refund-processing fees already incurred.

Project-specific terms: If a quotation, PI, purchase order or other written agreement contains specific cancellation or payment terms, those terms apply to that transaction.
