This is a terrible idea. Half of the people wouldn’t have the money and your company would become a debt collection agency. You’d be forced to charge at least 3X for the product.
- Dylan16807 4y agoThat's the point. If you don't want that, then don't do it to your suppliers.

- astrange 4y agoYou’re already giving the customers net 30 by accepting credit cards. Offering BNPL/afterpay would be another way to do it.
