# Crown Office Supplies

> Crown Office Supplies is a U.S. office-supplies retailer that sells through Net 30 business accounts — a business is approved for an account and pays an annual membership, then orders now and pays each invoice in 30 days.

Crown sells office supplies online to approved Net 30 business accounts, for new and established U.S. businesses. Ordering from Crown means applying for a Net 30 account, being approved, and paying an annual membership; from then on the account buys now and pays within 30 days. Crown does not guarantee approval, credit limits, or terms.
