Net D is a popular construction payment term in which the invoiced party has a set number of days to pay the entire amount. For example, under "net 30" payment terms, a customer has 30 days from the date of billing to pay the entire invoice amount, with no discounts. If a vendor offers a discount to encourage clients to pay sooner, such as a 2.5 percent discount if paid within 10 days, the discount may be stated as "2.5/10 net 30."
