Hi team, work for requesting and accept deposit payments has progressed well. We're now just entering the stage of rolling out a solution powered by Stripe to a limited group of users.
As mentioned in my last update - we're extremely grateful to our community here, who have shared their interest and provided feedback on how deposits in invoicing would meet your needs. We'd love to hear your feedback on our developments for this feature early and have included anyone that has voted on this idea and is connected to Stripe in the first group rollout - You'll receive a banner in your organisation on how to make use of this soon.
I'll share more again here as the rollout widens. Thanks!

Hi everyone, we'd like to share an update with you all.
We've begun release of a deposits solution powered by Stripe to a small group of customers, and expect to roll this out over the coming months.
We appreciate progressive payments for businesses that work on more of an instalments flow is a little more complex than what will be available initially with deposits.
We do have intentions to expand on this feature overtime, and I'll continue to keep you updated with further news on deposits and progress payments.

100% this
This is the most basic function that an invoicing function must have for most businesses today. Partial payments are part of the business. I am so surprised this was missed in the development stage. As for me, it would be impossible to use a software without this capability.

Card payments don't work for my business and probably a lot of business here saying the same as me!
When you need to invoice for a deposit, one or 2 progress payments and a balance due on completion, when each stage payment is more than most people's credit card limit and the job is completed in a week or 2.
We would like Xero to listen to their users. Xero are not understanding because it doesn't affect them!!

We (Xero subscribed payers) have been asking this for 10 years and Xero choose to not listen. Tell me what customer doesn't change their mind through a progression of a job of construction, event planning etc? XERO NEEDS TO LISTEN

@Andrew Watts 100% correct. This is standard on EVERY other accounting software but why Xero don't think business owners need it, it's a JOKE!

!00% agree with what Peggy has stated, it's NORMAL for small businesses to take progress payments. It's also NORMAL for customers to change their mind, add or delete items, why is Xero creating extra work for something that is NORMAL in other basis software accounting programs? I to do word templates because Xero make it difficult for paying customers!

I used Quickbooks when I first started business in 2004 and it had part payments/progress payments payments back then, yes 20 YEARS AGO 😱 and used MYOB after that and also Reckon, which all have this available yet Xero don't care!!
@Xero Team, why are you NOT listening? It's a real basic requirement for businesses to have. Very hard to explain to my customers details of their job they are being invoiced for when they can't see it on one page!

This is how lots of businesses operate, take a deposit, progress payment and final payment, why it this soooooooo hard for Xero to understand?

Thanks to everyone that’s shared interest in being able to write-off invoices or bills as a bad debt. We understand how a direct feature would enhance your use of Xero and flows when trading.
As shared in our last update, while not a one-click solution we appreciate the needs expressed for being able to record bad debts right now, and have a Xero Central article that provides a way of currently accommodating this in Xero today.
There are also other options that have been shared by members in this conversation that some may want to explore.
We want to be open that specific bad debts functionality isn’t planned for invoices or bills at this time, but we understand the needs here and it’ll continue to remain high on our team’s radar when reviewing and prioritising their roadmap.
With differing product teams and needs for this functionality within invoices and bills…

Hi team, wanting to provide an update to you here, we want you to know we understand the efficiency more users would like to have in being able to automate the creation of the Xero subscription invoice inside their Xero org.
To highlight from my last update for UK users this is possible with eInvoicing through the online invoice (My Bills page).
This is still something we're interested in developing in more regions however isn't planned in our roadmap just yet.
When resource opens up for us to be able to pick this work up we will share an update with you all on this here. Thanks for staying engaged and supporting in this idea.

I hope this includes progress payments within the same invoice so my customers need to have clearer information on that too?
