Al Fakher Prime: Payment and Credit Terms for Distributors
Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Payment and credit terms shape cash flow as much as unit price does for Prime.
Distributors reviewing their Prime range usually find that payment and credit terms explains most of the variance in results between accounts.
In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Prime.
Why payment and credit terms matters on the Prime
Standard practice is a deposit with balance before shipment for new accounts.
A written internal standard for payment and credit terms makes onboarding new account managers far quicker and reduces avoidable errors.
Established relationships may move to documentary credit or open terms.
