9. Deposit and Payment Process

9.1 Deposit Requirement

Clients who engage Service Providers for services are required to pay a refundable 10% deposit based on the pre-quoted generic rate provided by the Service Provider. This deposit ensures that Service Providers are compensated for initial consultations and proposal preparations.
