Working with payment types in AWS IQ
In AWS IQ, you decide how to request payment from your customers. While creating a proposal, you can select one of the following three payment types:
- Milestone
-
Allows you to send custom payment requests to your customers as work is completed. You can send as many payment requests as you want, up to the amount specified in the proposal.
- Upfront
-
Requests full payment from your customers with acceptance of the proposal. You can't request additional payments on this proposal.
- Schedule
-
Request payments based on the schedule and amounts you set in the proposal.
Customers review and accept or decline the payment type as part of the proposal agreement in the AWS IQ console.
