The importer's bank agrees to pay the sum of money if the importer fails to do.
Cash with order (CWO): is the safest method of payment for the exporter.

A revocable letter of credit may chaged by the buyer without reference to the exporter.
An irrevocable letter of creditcannot be altered without the consent of all the parties involved. For complete protection the exporter needs to have the l/c both irrevocable and confirmed. The l/c is an expansive method of payment involving several costly bank service.
