Rent and use services invoices are generally sent on the first of the month, with the latest being the 5th of the month.
Payment is due within 10 business days of the invoices being received. The lease agreement states that payments are due within 10 days (not business days) but Bakar Labs' policy is to provide more time to account for processing and transfer time.
Example: If an invoice arrived in your inbox on Jan 5, 2024, payment should be received by Jan 19, 2024.
If you do not receive an invoice, please notify nonstu_ar@berkeley.edu and adrianmiu@berkeley.edu immediately to avoid late fees.
If payment is not received and there has been no communication from your accounting teams, a 5% late charge will be automatically added to the next month's invoice, per the lease agreement.
Two invoices are sent, one is for services: these charges include use fees like membership/core access, conference room usage, equipment usage, cold storage, etc. The other is for the spaces that are leased (example attached to this article).
Rent is payed in advance.
Service fees are payed in arrears.
We accept ACH/wire transfers or checks. We highly prefer ACH/wire payments.

IMPORTANT: When you send your payment, you must include your customer number and the invoice number in the reference notes of your payment (see red boxes in the below images showing where you can find these numbers on the invoices).
