• If your NIPPON SANSO MATHESON Online Account is linked to your NIPPON SANSO MATHESON Credit Account, all online purchases will be recorded into your NIPPON SANSO MATHESON Credit Account, as well as being recorded in the Online Account. If your organization has special Credit Terms as part of your NIPPON SANSO MATHESON Credit Account, these terms will be applied to your Online purchases.
