What Payment Terms Do You Offer Customers?

IPVMU Certified

Is payment due 15, 30, 45, or 90 days after you invoice customers? I often see anyone requiring the full money up front called a 'trunk slammer' and it is often registered as a scammer warning, but do you do this? What terms do you typically offer?
