Payment
Paying.
Two ways. Both produce an invoice with GST and QST shown separately, which is what your accountant wants.
1 · Interac e-Transfer — works today
The deposit address is on your invoice.
Every invoice carries the e-Transfer address of OL's business account. It is not published on this page: it travels with the document, and nowhere else.
- Send the agreed amount by Interac e-Transfer to the address shown on the invoice.
- In the message field, put the job reference (for example OL-AUDIT).
- No security question is needed — the address is registered for direct deposit.
- You receive a numbered invoice with GST 5% and QST 9.975% broken out, usually the same day.
2 · Card — shortly
Card payment.
The merchant account is being set up. Once it is live this page will carry a payment button that takes Visa, Mastercard and Amex, and issues the receipt automatically.
If you need to pay by card before then, say so: a direct payment link is sent the same day.
3 · When to pay
On delivery.
Takeoffs and audits: payable on delivery. Automation: the terms are agreed before the work starts and printed on the invoice. Nothing is charged before the scope and the price are agreed in writing.
What the invoice looks like
| Line | Amount |
|---|---|
| Full takeoff (founding price) | $74.99 |
| GST 5% | $3.75 |
| QST 9.975% | $7.48 |
| Total | $86.22 |
Example only. NEQ 2270669312 · GST 81902 9992 RT0001 · QST 4024451921 TQ0002. Taxes are calculated to the cent by the same code that issues the invoice, and the arithmetic is checked before the document is sent.
No card details by email, ever.
If someone asks you for card numbers or bank credentials by email claiming to be OL, it is not us. Payment details come only from the invoice.
If something goes wrong
Open an issue at github.com/OL-Projects/ol-services with the job reference. If a payment was taken for work that was not delivered, it is refunded in full.
