    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…

    Xero Team,

    I share the frustration of many others! This feature has been available in other platforms for a long time, so we’re all baffled as to why Xero still doesn’t offer this essential functionality.

    We need the ability to send invoices to our clients and allow them to pay a deposit to confirm services. Other accounting software even lets us set multiple deposits with specific amounts and due dates—for example:
    • First deposit: $… due on [date]
    • Second deposit: $… due on [date]
    • Balance due: $… on [date]

    Come on, Xero—please make this happen!
