# How do I provide a receipt when a customer has paid a booking deposit?

## Understand how deposits and final payments are receipted, and what to do if a customer wants one receipt showing the full service amount.

When a customer pays a **booking deposit through HUSL Online Bookings**, the deposit and the remaining service balance are treated as **separate payments**.

For example, if a Blow Dry costs **$70** and you have set a **$50 deposit**:

1. **Customer pays the $50 deposit** 
     - The $50 is processed through your connected Stripe account.
     - The customer receives a **Stripe receipt for the $50 deposit**.
2. **The service is completed** 
     - At checkout, HUSL recognises that the $50 deposit has already been paid.
     - The $50 deposit is deducted from the $70 service price.
     - The remaining balance is therefore **$20**.
3. **Customer pays the remaining $20** 
     - The $20 is processed as a separate payment.
     - If the customer has an email address saved in their HUSL customer card, they will receive the relevant receipt for this payment.

**The customer has therefore paid $70 in total, but it has been paid through two separate transactions: $50 + $20.**

### Why can't HUSL/Stripe provide one $70 payment receipt?

Because the payments were made as **two separate transactions, on different days and for different purposes**, Stripe cannot combine them into one payment receipt showing that the customer made a single $70 payment.

The two receipts accurately reflect what actually happened:

**$50 booking deposit → $50 receipt**  
**$20 remaining balance → $20 receipt**

Together, they account for the **$70 Blow Dry service**.

### What if my customer wants one document showing the full $70?

If your customer specifically wants **one document showing the total cost of the service**, you can provide your own business receipt or invoice that accurately summarises the service and both payments.

For example:

**Blow Dry — $70**  
**Deposit paid — $50 on \[date\]**  
**Balance paid — $20 on \[date\]**  
**Total paid — $70**

Your business receipt should include your relevant business details, such as your **business name, ABN, date, service and price**. Australian Government guidance confirms that receipts can be provided digitally or in other formats and outlines the information they should contain.

**Important:** If you are GST-registered and issuing a **tax invoice**, additional requirements apply. Make sure your document meets the ATO requirements for tax invoices.

### 💡 Tip

**Don't try to combine or alter the Stripe payment receipts.** Stripe should continue to show the actual payments that were processed.

If a customer simply wants a document showing the **full value of their service and how it was paid**, provide a separate business receipt/invoice that clearly shows the **$50 deposit + $20 balance = $70 total**.
