What is your payment policy?
There is no cost to get started and no payments due until you are ready to submit your book for publication.
Once you are ready to submit your book, we prefer payment in full at the time your book is submitted for publication. We will also accept payment of half when your book is submitted and the balance upon delivery, as long as we have an official purchase order from your school (this option is only available for public and private schools who have a valid federal tax ID number).
Books cannot be printed until payment is received.
Final payment must be made within 10 days of delivery. If payment is not received within 30 days of delivery, there will be a one time service charge of $50 plus a late fee 2% of the outstanding balance per month.
All payments should be made by check to Moore Studios, 1735 E University Dr Ste 104, Auburn, AL 36830.
If you need to pay by credit card, we can accept your payment by phone but it will be necessary to add a 5% convenience charge.
Please note that all price quotes are based on out "Prepaid Discount" pricing. This price is discounted 15% off our regular price. If you are not able to prepay for your publishing, please contact us at least 60 days before your submission deadline to make payment arrangements.
If you will be paying be Purchase Order, please be aware that you will not receive the prepay discount. We will split your publishing cost into 2 equal parts. The first (half of the total) is a "Processing Fee" which is due upon submission of the book for printing. Payment must be received prior to your books shipping. The second part will be billed as a "Production Fee" and is due when the books ship. It must be received within 30 days of the ship date. (See late fees above.)
For purchase order purchases, after calling us, mail us an original copy of your purchase order at least 45 days before your submission deadline [which lists the quantity, price, and school details such as address and billing contact, and payment terms from the invoice we will send you]. The purchase order must be accompanied by a letter on official letterhead and signed by an authorized representative of the School. Please note that we invoice by sending a PDF via email. If you require an invoice by mail, there is an additional $25 service charge.
