Clear payment terms for machinery, parts and equipment purchases from Pfeifer Heavy Machinery GmbH. The applicable payment schedule is confirmed in the Pro Forma Invoice and order documentation.
Pfeifer Heavy Machinery GmbH uses structured payment terms for machinery, parts and equipment transactions.
Before payment, the applicable commercial terms are stated in the Pro Forma Invoice, quotation, sales contract or written order confirmation issued for the transaction.
The payment schedule and instructions stated in the transaction-specific Pro Forma Invoice, quotation, sales agreement or written order confirmation govern the order. Different terms apply only when expressly agreed in writing.
Unless different terms are agreed in writing for a specific transaction, our standard payment structure is based on the total order value.
Orders with a total value of up to and including €5,000 require full payment against the official Pro Forma Invoice before the order proceeds to dispatch.
Orders above €5,000 follow a two-stage payment structure: 50% against the Pro Forma Invoice and the remaining 50% against the applicable Bill of Lading and agreed shipping documentation.
The initial 50% payment is payable against the official Pro Forma Invoice after the machinery or equipment, commercial terms and order details have been confirmed.
The remaining 50% becomes payable against the applicable Bill of Lading and the shipping documentation specified for the transaction.
The payment method and exact payment instructions for an order are confirmed on the applicable Pro Forma Invoice or written payment instruction.
Domestic and international bank transfers are accepted for machinery and equipment orders. Official banking instructions are provided with the applicable Pro Forma Invoice or written payment instructions.
AcceptedEligible orders may be settled using an approved cryptocurrency. When confirmed for the transaction, cryptocurrency payment receives a 3.7% discount on the approved invoice amount.
3.7% DiscountThe cryptocurrency discount is a commercial incentive reflecting the reduced payment-processing and administrative costs that may apply to eligible digital-asset settlements. We pass part of those potential savings to the customer through a 3.7% reduction in the approved invoice amount.
The discount applies only when cryptocurrency settlement has been approved by Pfeifer Heavy Machinery GmbH and is expressly reflected in the relevant payment instruction, quotation or Pro Forma Invoice.
Always obtain the approved asset, blockchain network, receiving wallet address and exact payable amount from Pfeifer Heavy Machinery GmbH before initiating a transfer. Never send funds using wallet details obtained from an unverified third party.
Eligible digital-asset settlements can reduce certain payment-processing steps compared with some traditional international payment routes.
Direct settlement can reduce some administrative handling associated with international payment processing.
Digital assets can provide an additional settlement method for approved international B2B transactions.
Where the transaction qualifies, Pfeifer shares part of the potential processing savings with the customer through the 3.7% invoice discount.
Payment should be made only against an official PI, invoice, sales agreement or verified written payment instruction relating to the order.
Include the PI, invoice or order reference with your payment so that received funds can be matched to the correct transaction.
Sender-side banking charges, intermediary bank charges and transfer fees are borne by the buyer unless different terms are stated in the applicable order documents.
Blockchain network fees and sender-side transaction costs are borne by the buyer unless expressly agreed otherwise.
The cryptocurrency and blockchain network must match the written payment instructions. Do not assume a network from the asset name alone.
Payment is treated as received after the required funds have been received, verified and matched to the applicable order or Pro Forma Invoice.
The machinery or equipment, price, destination and transaction terms are confirmed.
Pfeifer issues the applicable Pro Forma Invoice with the order-specific payment instructions.
Orders up to €5,000 are paid 100%. Orders above €5,000 begin with the applicable 50% initial payment.
For orders above €5,000, the remaining 50% is payable against the applicable BL and agreed shipping documentation.
