**Termajargon:** Policy Terms Defined

# Advance payment

An advance payment is a partial payment of the total purchase price that helps the business for the actual expenses during the performance of a service or the provision of goods. For example, an advance payment would occur when a house painter asks for a payment of $500.00 to purchase paint and where the remainder of the purchase price is paid upon the completion of the job.
