In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

The majority of Rank’s suppliers are set to 30 days payment terms which is stipulated within the market tenders inviting commercial proposals, although some suppliers provide longer payment terms as part of the formal negotiation to provide a more attractive commercial model. Any payment terms less than 30 days must be agreed in advance with the Rank’s Senior Finance Leadership team.

Dispute resolution

Purchase orders are raised for the majority of purchases to an approved Rank supplier. Contact details of the person raising the purchase order are given to the supplier on the purchase order. This would normally be the first point of contact for a supplier to resolve a payment dispute. The purchase order also includes terms and conditions of purchase. Section 6.3 under Payment states "If the buyer (Rank) fails to make any payment due to the seller under the contract by the due date for payment then the buyer shall pay interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 2% per annum above the National Westminster Bank Plc's base rate. Such interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the actual payment whether before or after judgement. This clause does not apply to payments th

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.

The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
