French term or phrase: Pas d'escompte en cas de paiement anticipé
Mentioned on an invoice. What does this actually mean in practice? No discount for advance payment (as Eurodicautom suggests, which implies you pay something before you even get/deliver the goods) or no discount for payment before the due date indicated on the invoice?
