What payment methods does San Lan Technologies accept for international orders?

For most international orders, Telegraphic Transfer (T/T, or a direct bank wire transfer) is the standard and preferred method. It is fast, straightforward, and widely used by manufacturers across China, which is why the majority of San Lan's customers from 21+ countries settle their invoices this way.

A typical arrangement follows a two-stage structure:

• A deposit that confirms the order and starts production. For smaller standard machines this is commonly around 30%.
• The balance, paid before shipment or against a copy of the shipping documents, once your machine has been tested and is ready to leave the factory.

For larger projects such as complete processing lines, payment can be split into additional stages tied to production milestones. For example, an initial deposit when the contract is signed, a progress payment once manufacturing reaches an agreed stage, and the final balance before dispatch. The exact split is confirmed in writing with your sales engineer, so you always know what triggers each payment.

San Lan also works with Letters of Credit (L/C) for qualified buyers and for higher-value contracts, provided the terms are confirmed in advance with the sales and finance teams. If you plan to use an L/C, it helps to raise this during the quotation stage so the documentation requirements can be arranged early.

1. You send an inquiry with your target capacity and feed material. San Lan's engineering team recommends the right machines for your project.
2. A formal quotation is issued with specifications, price terms (for example FOB or CIF), and delivery time.
3. You review and confirm the commercial invoice, then arrange the deposit payment.
4. Manufacturing begins. For large lines you can expect progress updates, drawings, and photos.
5. Before shipment, the machine is tested at the factory. The balance is settled and the shipping documents are released.
6. San Lan's team provides installation and commissioning guidance on site or remotely to get the line running.

Machines such as circuit board recycling lines, a lead acid battery recycling plant, or a cable recycling machine are made to order and often customized to your feed material. A deposit protects both sides: it confirms your commitment and covers materials and engineering before production starts. The balance-before-shipment structure, in turn, gives you confidence because you only release the full payment once the machine has been tested and is ready for dispatch. Paying the entire amount up front before any work begins is rarely necessary when dealing with an established supplier with a long export track record.

• Always confirm the exact bank details and the legal entity before wiring funds. San Lan's official contact channels are listed on the company website.
• Keep your payment references clear so the deposit and balance can be matched to the correct order number.
• Ask your sales engineer to state price terms and currency clearly in the commercial invoice so there are no surprises with duties or transfer fees.
• For very large plant projects, discuss an L/C or a staged payment plan during the quotation stage rather than after signing.

Arranging a payment plan is simple: contact the sales team through the website, WhatsApp, WeChat, or email with your requirements. San Lan has been manufacturing e-waste, battery, cable, and mining recycling equipment since 2007, and supports partners from 21+ countries including Singapore, Colombia, Vietnam, Mexico, Argentina, Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, South Africa, Tunisia, India, and Kenya.

For concrete terms, send your inquiry and request a quotation. The team will confirm the accepted payment methods, deposit and milestone structure, and shipping arrangements for your specific order, so you can move forward with confidence.
