What is a sales agreement?

A sales agreement (also called a sales contract) is a contract between a seller and a buyer for the sale of goods. It records exactly what is being sold, the price, how and when payment is made, when and where the goods are delivered, and who bears the risk if something goes wrong.

It is used whenever a business or individual sells products — from a single large order to an ongoing supply arrangement — and wants clear, enforceable terms rather than relying on a verbal deal.

Sales agreement vs. bill of sale

A sales agreement sets out the full terms of a sale, including payment schedules, delivery, inspection rights, warranties, and remedies. A bill of sale is a simpler document that mainly proves ownership passed from seller to buyer at a specific moment — useful for one-off transfers like a vehicle.

Use this sales agreement when the transaction has terms to negotiate (payment over time, delivery, inspection); use a bill of sale when you just need proof of transfer.

What a sales agreement should cover

A complete sales agreement identifies the parties and the goods, states the purchase price and payment terms, and sets out delivery, inspection, risk of loss, and when title passes. It should also address warranties (or their disclaimer), limitation of liability, force majeure, and how disputes are resolved.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a sales agreement and a bill of sale?

A sales agreement sets out the full terms of a sale — price, payment, delivery, warranties, and remedies — while a bill of sale is a simpler receipt proving ownership transferred at a point in time. This template is a full sales agreement.

What does selling goods 'as is' mean?

Selling 'as is' means the seller disclaims warranties, so the buyer accepts the goods in their current condition without guarantees of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. This template includes an 'as is' disclaimer you can keep or adjust.

When does ownership of the goods transfer to the buyer?

Under this template, title passes to the buyer when the buyer accepts delivery, but the seller keeps a security interest in the goods until the purchase price is paid in full.

Is a sales agreement legally binding?

Yes. Once signed by both parties it is an enforceable contract. Electronic signatures are valid under laws such as the U.S. ESIGN Act and the EU's eIDAS regulation.
