The Client agrees to reimburse the Company for any pre-approved expenses incurred to support the delivery of the services, as well as for any additional services requested beyond the original scope. Any such additional services or expenses must be agreed upon in writing by both parties before they are incurred.
Late payments will incur a 3% fee for each week past the due date. If a payment is more than fourteen (14) days overdue, the Company reserves the right to pause services until the outstanding balance is resolved.

3. Recurring Billing Authorization
