At this point, I’m creating multiple invoices, and it’s rather tedious for something that seems so simple to implement.
For example, 6000.00 project should be able to be broken down into 2000.00 three times.
Is this available yet?

Thanks for asking this question. It sounds like what you are asking for is the ability to support partial payments and thats a very valid request. We’ve seen this feedback before and its a highly anticipated improvement on our roadmap. We don’t have a timeline for it quite yet but not doubt something we plan to support.
For some context, there is a lot of coordination involved in making sure we get this right. That last thing we want to deliver is something that “works” but misses the details. For example, we want to ensure that payment statuses, failures, retries are properly handled and that third party integrations with accounting tools and automations work smoothly with this capability.

Subject: Enhancement Request: Multi-Pay/Installment Invoice Feature
Hi Team,
Following up on the Enhancement Request for the Multi-Pay or Installment Invoice Functionality, please find the detailed requirements below for implementation consideration:
Feature Overview: Multi-Pay/Installment Invoicing
Objective:
Enhance the invoicing module to support installment-based payments, particularly suited for high-value or project-based billing scenarios.
Key Functional Requirements:
- Gross Amount Setup:
- Allow setting a total gross amount due for the invoice.
- This total amount will serve as the base for installment calculations.
- Installment Scheduling:
- Enable configuration of the number of installments or payment frequency.
- Recommend installment period cap at < 1 year (e.g., monthly, quarterly, etc.).
- Option to auto-calculate installment amounts as
Gross Amount / Number of Installments.
- Variable Installment Amounts (Optional):
- Support variable payment amounts per installment, particularly useful for scenarios such as larger upfront retainers or milestone-based billing.
- Dynamic Balance Tracking:
- Each installment should reflect the remaining balance from the original gross amount.
- On payment receipt, the system should dynamically update the balance due for the next scheduled installment.
- Invoice Versioning:
- For each payment cycle, generate a new invoice instance referencing:
- Original gross invoice details
- Payment history (amounts, dates, transaction references)
- Updated balance due
Additional Invoicing Considerations for Implementation:
- Payment Method Integration: Ensure compatibility with existing payment gateways (credit card, ACH, etc.).
- Notifications & Reminders: Automated email reminders for upcoming or overdue installments.
- UI/UX Considerations: Clear visual indication of installment status, payment history, and remaining balance.
- API Support: Extend invoice APIs to support CRUD operations for installment schedules and payment tracking.
- Audit Trail: Maintain a full audit log of installment creation, updates, and payments applied.
- Edge Case Handling:
- Early payoff scenarios where the customer pays the entire balance upfront.
- Missed or partial payments and associated dunning workflows.
- Reporting Enhancements: New reports to show installment schedules, balances, and payment status across invoices.
Please review these requirements and provide an estimated level of effort (LOE) and timeline for incorporating this enhancement into the existing invoicing system.
Let me know if you need further clarification or more ideas.

Hi @Christian_TenEyck_EA ! Thank you for submitting this feature request!
I’ve shared it with our Product team for review. While I can’t confirm if or when this will be implemented, I can let you know that installment-based invoicing is not currently on our immediate roadmap.
We truly appreciate your input. It helps guide our future improvements. Please feel free to share any other ideas or feedback in the meantime! Thanks! 
Hi @Veronique_Cadet & @marlon
Curious on where we are on this Feature.

Hi @Christian_TenEyck_EA - thanks for following up on this! As Véronique mentioned previously, this feature request has been shared with our product team and is noted on our future roadmap. That said, we don’t yet have an expected timeline for when multi-payment options will be available.
Whenever payments and billing are involved, we aim to be especially thoughtful and intentional in how we build—which means this will take time to scope, test, and implement properly.
We completely understand how valuable this would be and appreciate your patience in the meantime. We’ll be sure to keep you posted on any updates down the line!
Hi @brittany @marlon
Thank you for the response. Respectfully, I am hoping this will be completed and put as a priority before I decide to renew. Note that this is definitely valuable as many industries that are Small Business and Sales Driven have generally offer this. This feature is something that is available and common with Paypal and Stripe respectively.
If someone needs to revisit the general needs Framework, See Above : May 29

Any word from Stripe’s engineers to make PAD available in Canada?
I know you reached out in January 2025 and they were working on an update at the time. Any updates would be appreciated.

Hi @Christian_TenEyck_EA thanks for following up!
We’ve shared this feedback with our EPD team and truly appreciate your continued input. It’s feedback like yours that helps guide our product and priorities, but we cannot provide any sort of timeline because this work is currently not planned for development. The work required touches core parts of our infrastructure, so as with all features, we want to approach it thoughtfully and with the appropriate time required, when the time comes.
We’ll be sure to reach out and share updates once this moves into our development queue!
