Common Questions
Payment FAQ
Your retainer is due at the time you sign your event contract. It is non-refundable and serves to officially hold your date, reserve your team, and lock in all programming specific to your event. Without the retainer, your date remains available to other clients.
Yes. After your initial retainer, installment payments are accepted at any point during your pre-event planning period. Your full remaining balance simply needs to be settled no later than 30 days before the event date.
Our policy limits card transactions to one per event. This keeps processing fees manageable and encourages the use of our preferred methods: bank/cashier check or ACH transfer. If you need to discuss a specific payment situation, your account representative is happy to help.
Yes. The payment gateway is powered by our DJ Event Planner client portal, which uses 256-bit SSL encryption and PCI-compliant processing. Your card data is never stored on Black Diamond's servers. The transaction processes directly through our secured payment processor.
Day-of payments are only accepted with prior written confirmation from your account representative. When approved, cash is the only accepted form of payment on event day.
