Deposits and Partial Payments
Ask for a deposit on approval and the balance per terms. The client sees a clear breakdown and pays each part online, straight to your bank.
Charge the way B2B actually works
Not every sale is paid all at once. Many businesses collect a percentage up front to kick off the order and the rest on delivery. Cord makes it native.
Key benefits:
- Deposit % per quote or as a default: Set a deposit (e.g. 50%) in the editor, or configure it as your business default so it pre-fills. The editor shows you live how much your client pays on approval and how much is left as balance.
- A clear breakdown for the client: The public link shows "total $X · today you pay $Y as a deposit, balance $Z." No surprises.
- Payment opens when it makes sense: A cash quote is payable right away; a credit quote (Net 30/60) doesn't ask for money until the due date arrives. The deposit, if any, is always payable on approval.
- Each part is a real charge: Deposit, balance and installments are independent charges each with their own link, all straight to your bank via Stripe. The quote is marked paid only once no charge remains pending.
