Who this template is for

Deposit & Payment Terms Agreement is built for advisers, brokers and finance teams who need to collect structured financial detail with a clear audit trail.

  • Advisers, brokers and finance teams working in finance, insurance & tax.
  • Teams who need to collect structured financial detail with a clear audit trail without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing incomplete applications that fail compliance review with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are clients and applicants — the form asks them 14 questions across 2 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of incomplete applications that fail compliance review and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 8 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
  • Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 2 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
  • Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 3 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “Deposit requested” is Other, the form dynamically exposes “Custom deposit amount (USD)”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Milestone 1 description” is not empty, the form dynamically exposes “Milestone 1 payment percentage”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Milestone 2 description” is not empty, the form dynamically exposes “Milestone 2 payment percentage”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

What deposit should I ask for?

Enough to cover materials and the first stretch of labour. Twenty-five to fifty percent is normal on service and trade work.

Will asking for a deposit lose me work?

It loses the clients who were never going to pay. Buyers who intend to pay treat a deposit as ordinary.

Can I use this with a formal contract?

Yes — it is the payment schedule exhibit. Reference the submission date and keep the signed copy with the contract.

Bill on a fortnightly cycle instead and use the deposit plus final payment questions only.
