Red Velvet Studios requires payment to be made upfront, whether as full payment or an agreed-upon deposit or initial payment outlined at booking or in a written agreement.

We do not offer long-term or in-house installment plans. Using the Studio as a lender or bank creates delayed payments, extended project timelines, and poor working relationships, and we do not wait extended periods of time to be paid.

If you wish to pay over a longer period of time, you must do so through your credit card provider, Stripe financing via invoice, or a third-party lender or payment plan service (such as Affirm, Klarna, Afterpay, PayPal Pay in 4, Zip, Sezzle, or Shop Pay Installments). In these cases, Red Velvet Studios is paid upfront, and you repay your chosen lender or Stripe directly under their terms.

Any installment or financing arrangement is strictly between you and the lender or payment provider, not Red Velvet Studios.
