Typically, "ton" refers to a short ton (2000 pounds) and "gross ton" refers to a unit of volume used in shipping. The payment structure would depend on the context of the industry. In shipping, payment might be based on gross tonnage as it reflects the capacity of the vessel. In other industries, payment might be based on weight, which would be in short tons.
