In the case of the late payers, though, how much

depends on the payment term. Even if I'm late with every payment for
my yearly plan, it doesn't cause you anywhere near as much pain as
someone who is late with monthly payments 1 in 3 times. Obviously the
discount for yearly payment partly reflects that, but I would suggest
that you consider leaving the credit period as it is for yearly
customers.
It's a fair point and I'll see what I can do that doesn't cause too
much hassle just for being different to the norm.
Also, for corporate customers a 30-day turn around on a purchase order is
probably more likely to be met than a 7 day one. These customers are more
likely, I suspect, to take out annual contracts anyway.
