    Thanks for everyone’s continued support in this idea. We’d like to update here that accepting a deposit on an invoice is now live to all organisations that use Stripe in AU, NZ, UK, US, CA and SG with remaining regions soon to come.

    We know this doesn’t yet cover fuller progress-payment and instalment workflows, and we recognise those are important for many of you. We’ll keep returning here with more news as work in this space evolves.

    We are often looking to produce progress payment invoices based off the total quoted/accepted amount. Each progress payment invoice should then detail any amounts received against the total amount, as well as invoicing for the next amount due and in effect, give a running balance. Seems crazy that this is not something Xero have considered. Please product team, investigate this option as I'm sure plenty of people would benefit from this feature.

    This is so incredibly frustrating. We often request progress payments as we are a small business and cash-flow is vital. Our current work around is to create a document in Word, update payments (by date) and type in the balance owing.
    Crazy that this has not been made an essential option. We pay enough for Xero but we are doing extra work that should be part of the package - particularly for small businesses. Come on Xero - let's get a move on!
