Reuters: Nvidia requires Chinese customers to pay in full when ordering its H200 AI chips, and orders cannot be canceled, refunded, or have configurations changed after placement (previously allowing some customers to pay a deposit), to hedge against risks related to Chinese shipment approvals.
A person added that in special cases, customers can provide commercial insurance or asset collateral as an alternative to cash payment.
【China demands tech companies to delay procurement of Nvidia H200 chips】An insider revealed that Chinese officials have informed companies this week to suspend procurement orders while waiting for the government to decide whether and under what conditions high-performance Nvidia chips can be obtained. One person added that Beijing does not want domestic tech companies to hoard chips prematurely before the government completes its review.
