What is a deposit invoice and when is it used?
A deposit invoice requests partial payment upfront before work begins or a booking is confirmed. It is common for contractors, event vendors, and custom orders. It secures the client's commitment, helps cover early costs, and clarifies how much is paid now versus due on completion.
How do you show the remaining balance on a deposit invoice?
List the full project or order total, then subtract the deposit amount being requested or already paid. Clearly state the remaining balance and when it falls due, such as on delivery or completion. Spelling out both figures prevents confusion when the final invoice arrives.
How much should a deposit invoice request upfront?
Deposit amounts vary by industry but commonly range from 10 to 50 percent of the total, depending on project size and risk. The figure should cover initial costs and reflect your commitment policy. Whatever you choose, state the percentage or amount clearly so the client understands.
