Our operations run on Israeli Shekels and therefore, shekel and dollar rates are not relational to the current exchange rate, but rather on the expenses incurred when we receive payment in US$.

* Time is billed in a minimum of 15 minute increments, page rates are based on an average 250 word page (less than 250 words is billed at the full page rate), and a galley sheet is 24,000 characters (letters and spaces).
** Product, service and/or technology knowledge acquisition may be required, research is billed at 100 NIS per hour with a not-to-exceed quotation provided in advance.
Project and other currency rates are available on request.

Business Hours

We are available between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. Israel time, Sunday through Thursday. Phone consultations or meetings initiated or required by the client outside of our normal business hours are billed at 50% increase over the rates published in the chart on this page (e.g., by requesting technical support after 8 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, or on Friday, you are accepting a minimum billing rate of 187.5). Our office is closed on Fridays, Shabbat and all Jewish holidays.

If your business will require Friday morning or Saturday evening work on a regular basis, please discuss this with us in advance and we will work with you on a reasonable arrangement.

Payment Terms

  • Payment Method: payments can be made by credit card through PayPal or direct bank transfer. Payments made in US $ via PayPal incur a 5% processing fee. No Checks accepted.
  • Advance Project Scheduling Deposit: to secure a time-slot send a ₪350 deposit (non-refundable) using one of the above payment methods (be sure to discuss the scheduling with me in advance of sending the deposit).
  • One-time Projects: require 50% payment in advance of commencement of work, with the remaining 50% due within 3 business days of completion of work.
  • Ongoing Projects: Long-term clients in good credit standing may receive Net 15 day terms. Invoices are generally sent to clients on the 1st and 15th of the month and payment must be received in full within 15 days (e.g., an invoice generated on January 1st must be paid by January 16th and an invoice dated January 15th must be paid no later than January 30th).
  • Late Payments: payments received after the invoice due date incur a 5% Penalty. If payments are late more than twice, advance payment will be required for all future work.

Agreement

By opening a new project, sending work to us (by e-mail, post or any other means), or phoning for a consultation whether it be for a few minutes or a few hours, you acknowledge your agreement of the rates, terms and conditions contained herein.

Looking forward to contributing to your success!
