Proforma Invoice vs USDT Checkout — How to Order

When bulk buyers use proforma vs when select SKUs support USDT TRC20 checkout after sales confirmation.

Proforma Invoice vs USDT Checkout — How to Order

Two payment paths on phonefarm.cyou

| Path | When to use | What happens | |------|-------------|--------------| | **Proforma invoice (default B2B)** | Bulk PO, custom mixes, export packing, multi-box rollout, enterprise deployment | Submit RFQ → sales confirms MOQ, lead time, destination plug, setup scope → proforma invoice → you pay agreed method → factory burn-in and export | | **USDT TRC20 checkout (select SKUs)** | Standard published hardware after sales enables terms | Browse /shop → may cart/checkout → pay USDT within order window **only when sales has confirmed** MOQ and scope—not for ad-hoc enterprise quotes |

Cyou Phone Farm is **B2B-first**. Reference USD prices on the shop are not final payment totals.

Proforma workflow (step by step)

  1. **Request quotation** — /contact or WhatsApp/Telegram with node count, brand line, destination country, control method (USB vs LAN OTG).
  2. **Sales reply** — MOQ, lead time, export packing notes, optional remote setup package.
  3. **Proforma invoice** — confirms SKU mix, unit reference pricing, freight method, and payment instructions.
  4. **Payment** — wire/T/T or agreed method as stated on proforma (USDT may be agreed in writing for some POs).
  5. **Production** — burn-in, serial sheet, optional pre-shipment photos.
  6. **Export** — DHL/FedEx/UPS from Guangzhou with commercial invoice.

USDT checkout workflow (when available)

  1. Sales confirms a **standard SKU** and quantity on record.
  2. Sign in (if required) and add to cart from /shop.
  3. Checkout shows **USDT TRC20** on Tron with order expiry window.
  4. Send exact amount to the address shown; team verifies on-chain before shipping.

**Not for:** custom tray mixes, undeclared ROM tiers, or export orders without prior sales confirmation.

Samples and first-time overseas buyers

Request a **sample box quote** or Starter Setup Package on /contact. Sample path still uses proforma—validates shipping, voltage, and remote onboarding before bulk PO.
