Become a SubcontractorTurner Accelerated Payment Program™ powered by Billd is an elective program that delivers fast, predictable payments - tied to your invoice, not the owner's timeline.
Access to working capital has always been a complex part of the construction ecosystem. With extended billing cycles, multi-party approval processes, and the scale of today’s projects, trade contractors often face cash flow pressures while work is still underway.
The Turner Accelerated Payment Program™ powered by Billd addresses this challenge by giving qualified trade contractors the ability to access payment shortly after submitting a pay application. This program offers trade contractors a new capital option, helping them protect their cash reserves, improve cash flow, strengthen supplier relationships, and grow their businesses.
Participation is entirely elective. Your eligibility to work on Turner projects is not affected by whether or not you use the program.
Enroll your company for every invoice, or pick and choose specific invoices as you go. Company enrollment covers all your invoices automatically, but you can opt out anytime. Invoice enrollment lets you decide each time.
Each month, Turner reviews the trade contractor’s invoice. Approved invoices are submitted to the client.
Upon achieving payment certainty, Turner authorizes early payment (before they themselves are paid) so long as the trade contractor’s pay application is in good standing. This is within five business days of the period through date on the invoice.

How quickly will I be paid?
Assuming your pay application is in good standing, trade contractors can expect to be paid within five business days of the period through date on the invoice or Turner payment certainty – whichever comes first. However, if the pay application is approved at a later date, acceleration of payment can occur up to a few days before standard payment terms.
How does the program affect my existing asset-backed loans or other debt facilities?
The accelerated payment you receive isn’t a loan, so it doesn’t impact your balance sheet, any loan covenants, or your credit history.
How is the fee determined, and can it change during a project or across multiple projects?
The fee is based on a daily rate and depends on how many days early you are funded—for instance 15 days costs less than 30. The number of days advanced is determined by when early payment is released and the project payment terms. Your rate is set
at the time of enrollment and is shown when you accept the online payment invitation.
What happens if, after I’ve been paid early via the program, the client is late in remitting payment to Turner?
Turner absorbs the late payment risk.
Is the fee charged to enrolled trade contractors, regardless of whether or not they meet all requirements?
No, the fee will only be charged if an accelerated payment is made and determined by the number of days payment is accelerated.
Will lien waivers, releases, etc. be handled differently if we use the program?
Will lien waivers, releases, etc. be handled differently if we use the program?
Will retention payments be accelerated?
Once retention release has been approved by the client, retention payments will be processed via the program. Retention payments will not accelerate ahead of client approval or the contractual terms of the project.
Do I have to always use the program once I start?
Contractors have the ability to enroll or un-enroll at the enterprise level and once enrolled, all future contracts and invoices are included. However, you can suspend the program for individual invoices on a month-to-month basis.
Do I have to sign an agreement with a financial institution?
No. Simply accept the terms and conditions in the payment platform when enrolling.
Do I have to use a new technology platform or make changes to my billing process?
No. The program works within Turner’s existing billing process, so there’s no need to change how you operate.
How will I know if an accelerated payment has been made?
You will be notified through our online payment application software when a payment has been made.
Am I required to use this program on Turner jobs?
No, the Turner Accelerated Payment Program powered by Billd is a completely voluntary program and does not affect your eligibility to work on Turner jobs.
