    Hey community, we want to acknowledge all the feedback you’ve provided on this idea. We know from your comments here and through other channels that taking deposits or partial payments on invoices is a crucial part of the workflow for many businesses, whether it's to cover initial costs or to confirm a new project.

    In terms of current options, within Xero there is the ability to create prepayments. Alternatively there are some third-party apps that serve these needs, too.

    However, we do want to share that our product team is actively working on a solution that'll allow you to request and accept deposit payments.

    While we can't give specifics on a timeline as yet, please know that this is a priority for us. We're grateful for the detailed feedback you've provided so far, which has been invaluable in getting us to this point.

    We’ll be sure to keep you updated…

    we need a deposit system for our business. I am currently paying for another system just for the deposit requests and also using xero.

    Can you please get this set up/

    Carl is correct in his comments. We have to use invoice2go for any deposit requests as xero does not have this facility and send that invoice to our clients. Then we transfer it over to xero. We are using two systems and paying for two systems , which is not viable in a business. Please add this ASAP TO XERO.

    Allow customers to pay a deposit towards an invoice instead of paying the full amount.
