Al Fakher Mint Payment and Credit Terms Checklist 2026
Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Payment and credit terms shape cash flow as much as unit price does for Mint.
The Mint has settled into a stable position in the range, which makes payment and credit terms the natural next question for distributors.
In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Mint.
Why payment and credit terms matters on the Mint
Standard practice is a deposit with balance before shipment for new accounts.
Seasonality interacts with payment and credit terms more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Established relationships may move to documentary credit or open terms.

Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Agreeing a defect handling procedure before the first shipment removes emotion from later conversations.

| Pallet (987 units) | Tier 2 | 21-30 days |
