If you're a developer under contract to an individual or company to

requirement to provide you with your fee for the contracted
service. What
surprises me is this: Why don't you put your payment guarantee in your
product with a time lock?
Because that can simply get you in trouble.
In certain jurisdictions it may in fact be restricted by law.
Having worked on a project where a developer did exactly this DON'T
DO IT.
I know that developer will never be hired by me, and I suspect by
anyone that asked me for a referral.
You're better off to NOT deliver a compiled and working binary.
Or not deliver the final code.
