Maksukerralle

Maksukerralle is a Finnish term used in formal financial and contractual language to refer to the payment event or a per-payment basis. The form combines the noun maksukerta, meaning a single payment occasion, with the allative suffix -lle, which marks direction toward or per unit. In practice, maksukerralle signals that a charge, condition, or rule applies to each separate payment instance rather than to payments taken as a whole.

Maksukerta itself is formed from maksua (payment) and kerta (time or occasion). The allative form maksukerralle is one of several grammatical forms used in Finnish to specify the scope of costs or terms in billing and contracts. Because it is relatively technical, maksukerralle often appears in invoices, terms and conditions, or tax documents rather than in everyday speech.

Usage of maksukerralle is most common in billing and financial documentation. It is used to indicate charges or rules that apply per individual payment rather than in aggregate. Example sentences could include: "Hinta on 10 euroa maksukerralle," meaning the price is 10 euros per payment, or "Tässä sopimuksessa maksukerralle lisätään 2 euron käsittelymaksu," meaning a handling fee of 2 euros is added per payment.

Overall, maksukerralle is a specialized term whose use varies by industry and contract type, and it is typically confined to formal documents where precise per-payment terms need to be stated.
