How your money moves, step by step
You always know what has been paid, what it bought and what happens next — before the balance is due.
Approve the quote and pay a managed deposit by PayPal, bank transfer or wire to our company account with a USD invoice.
We pay suppliers and record each purchase with amount, supplier name and receipt in your workspace.
Each SKU is counted, inspected and photographed. Problem SKUs are flagged with a correction path before dispatch.
You review counts, photos and packing. Only after your approval do we collect the balance and ship.
Proof of payment
What you receive as evidence
Company receipt
Every order has a USD receipt from SourcingRelay — usable for bookkeeping, tax records and Amazon/TikTok expense tracking.
Supplier receipts
We keep the supplier name, amount paid and purchase proof for each SKU, visible in your order workspace.
QC gallery
Photo and video evidence per SKU: quantity, label, build quality, function test and packing condition.
Dispatch checklist
A signed-off checklist links QC results, carton weight and tracking before the balance invoice is issued.
If something goes wrong
Correction paths before your money is final
Issues found at QC are corrected before dispatch — not after your goods arrive.
Short count
If a SKU arrives short at QC, we re-buy from a second supplier at our cost or credit the shortfall against your balance.
Wrong spec
Wrong connector, plug type or material is returned to the supplier where possible, or replaced and re-inspected before dispatch.
Quality failure
Failed SKUs can be replaced, refunded or excluded from the carton — you decide with our recommendation before shipping.
Payment FAQ
Common payment questions
Do I pay suppliers directly?
No. You pay SourcingRelay under a managed order. We distribute payments to suppliers and keep the receipts in your workspace.
Can I pay by credit card?
Yes. PayPal may support eligible international cards and account balances. Bank transfer and wire are also available for larger orders with lower fees.
When is the balance due?
Only after you approve QC photos, counts and packing. Nothing ships before your dispatch approval.
Do you accept PayPal?
Yes, for traceable commercial payments. We do not accept PayPal Friends & Family payments or personal transfers, which protects both sides.
