Purchasing FAQ

What forms of payment do you accept?
Ultimate Drill Book accepts checks, credit/debit cards, and purchase orders. More information can be found here.

How do I get an invoice from you to get a purchase order started?
The quickest way to get an invoice is to place an order online here. The order form will prompt you for everything that we need to generate an invoice. You will receive the invoice within 24 hours of submitting your order.

If you require a different payment arrangement, please contact us.

What if I don’t have enough time to get a purchase order before band camp starts?
When purchasing our products, you have the option to defer payment by signing the UDB Contract. If you choose that option on the order form, you will be required to provide the name and email address of an additional school/ensemble representative.

Once your order is submitted, you will receive a digital contract via DocuSign that you and the secondary representative will sign. Once we receive the signed contract, we will put your order into production and you will have 30 days to pay for your products.

Can I pay up front with a credit card?
If you are purchasing UDBapp licenses, yes. If you are purchasing Ultimate Dot Books, Ultimate Drill Books, or Ultimate Director’s Books, you are required to defer payment with the UDB Contract. The UDB Contract allows us to begin production of your books as quickly as possible while ensuring that we charge the correct amount for shipping.

If I am not able to pay invoices until the fall, can I still use UDB?
Yes! You can defer payment by up to 30 days with the UDB Contract. If you need more time, please contact us and we’ll be happy to work with you.

Can UDB to fill out our Vendor Paperwork?

A current W9 will be sent with our initial email or is available upon request.

How much does UDBapp cost to download?
UDBapp is a free download from the iOS and Google Play app stores. However, to get an account for your ensemble, you’ll need to purchase a license for each user that you want to have access. UDBapp licenses start at $10/user per year.

Do I have to pay a separate director or ensemble fee?
Nope! There is no additional fee.

Is there a separate app for directors?
No, but directors have access to more features than regular users. Directors are able to manage their ensemble by adding and removing members, renaming drill, managing the calendar, updating attendance records, and enabling Smart Access features.

Do I need to purchase a UDBapp license for my drill writer?
Drill writers do not need their own UDBapp license to upload drill to your ensemble.
