**The Contracts page**

The contracts table shows all your draft, sent, signed, and paid contracts in one place. Each row displays:

| Column | What it shows |
| --- | --- |
| Contract | The contract title and reference |
| Customer | The customer name the contract was sent to |
| Amount | The contract value |
| Payment | The payment status |
| Status | The current contract status — e.g. Draft, Sent, Signed, Paid |
| Action | Options to view, edit, or manage the contract |

You can search for any contract by customer name, email, reference, or title, and filter by status using the dropdown.

**Contract templates**

Before creating a contract, you can set up reusable templates to save time. Click **Contract templates** in the top right corner to create and manage your templates.

Once a template is saved, you can apply it when creating a new contract — all fields will be pre-filled and can be adjusted as needed.

**How to create a contract**

Click **+ Add contract** in the top right corner. The Add contract panel will open on the right side of the screen.

**Template (optional)**

**Contract details**

| Field | What to enter |

| Short summary | A brief description shown at the top of the customer-facing contract page |
| Contract amount | The total value of the contract |
| Currency | The currency — GBP £ is selected by default |
| Status | The initial status of the contract — Draft by default |
| Expiry date | The date the contract link expires |

**Customer details**

| Customer name | The full name of the customer |

Once all fields are complete, continue scrolling to set your signature and payment rules, then send the contract to your customer.

**What the customer receives**

Once sent, the customer receives a secure link to review the contract. From the customer-facing page they can:

- Read the contract summary and full terms 
- Sign the contract electronically 
- Pay the required amount through NeroPay if a deposit or payment is required

Funds from any payment collected through the contract go directly to your NeroPay merchant account.

**Contract statuses**

| Status | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| Draft | The contract has been created but not yet sent |
| Sent | The contract has been sent to the customer and is awaiting action |
| Signed | The customer has signed the contract |
| Paid | The customer has signed and completed payment |

**Frequently asked questions**

**Q: Can I require payment as part of the contract?**
A: Yes. When setting up the contract, you can include a payment requirement. The customer can pay through NeroPay directly from their secure contract link, and the funds are sent to your merchant account.

**Q: Can I create reusable contract templates?**
A: Yes. Click Contract templates from the Contracts page to create and manage templates. When adding a new contract, select a template and click Apply template to pre-fill the fields.

**Q: What happens if the contract link expires before the customer signs?**
A: The link becomes inactive on the expiry date. You can create a new contract or contact support if you need to extend a contract.

**Q: Can I edit a contract after it has been sent?**
A: Use the Action column in the contracts table to manage sent contracts. If you need to make significant changes, it is recommended to create a new contract and resend it.

**Q: Where do the funds go when a customer pays through a contract?**
A: Funds are processed through NeroPay and go directly to your merchant account, the same as any other NeroPay payment.
