    Yeah, unless you have a contract stipulating otherwise this agency is going to pay you when they say they will (or worse, when they feel like it). You have a contract for things as mundane as your cell phone and domain names, you should make sure to have something for how you make a living.

    Speaking from having been on both sides, we make every attempt to pay net 30 over here, but I'm not going to lie, there's times when cash flow is an issue for everyone including agencies. Talk with them to see if you can't get it a bit earlier, realizing you're asking them for a favour (provided you didn't have a contract), despite what some may tell you there are actually a handful of good people working in AP.

    Or, it could be a total nightmare. Get a contract, good luck.
