The eSpeakers platform handles the process of getting money from you to the Speaker. Because it is online and streamlined into the hiring process, paying your speaker is very easy and secure, and it relieves the Speaker of the administrative chore of invoicing and collecting.

Here's how it works:

• Immediately after accepting a Speaker's OFFER, the Buyer (you) pays the DEPOSIT of 50% of the speaking fee via one of these payment methods:
  • credit card
  • bank account
  • paper check through the mail
• Once the payment has been received by eSpeakers, it is deposited into the Speaker's bank account.
• On the Speaker's calendar, the event becomes confirmed only after DEPOSIT is received.
• On the day the engagement starts, the platform automatically debits the Buyer for the BALANCE:
  • 50% balance owed on speaking fee
  • travel expenses, if any, per the contract
  • materials fee, if any, per the contract
• The balance collected is deposited immediately into the Speaker's bank account.

PAYMENT VIA PAPER CHECK

If you choose to pay via paper check sent through the mail, the process remains exactly the same but takes longer.

The eSpeakers platform immediately emails you a printable invoice, against which the you print a check and mail it to eSpeakers Processing (the address is on the invoice). On receipt, eSpeakers deposits the check into the Speaker's account and the the rest of the process happens as it would with any of the other payment methods.

You must print a copy of your invoice and include it in the envelope with your check, so that we can associate your payment with your event.

PAYMENT VIA WIRE TRANSFER

You can also pay for your speaker by wiring funds to eSpeakers. Contact support@espeakers.com for wiring information.

RESPONSIBILITY

eSpeakers facilitates the transaction but responsibility for paying always rests on the Buyer.
