# Manual Charges & Deposits

HoneyCart gives caterers the flexibility to charge the client after they've had a chance to confirm the order or perform any upsells:

* charge the **Full Amount** or a **Deposit** after the order's been placed
* charge any time you're ready (i.e. before or after the event time)

![Charging a deposit is the same process as charging the full amount. Simply enter the amount or % to charge.](https://1828541714-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FtkXFOBTVwPFSQInbHHVW%2Fuploads%2FTfrgP0tWekx3vqe2Lla3%2Fcredit-card_deposits.gif?alt=media\&token=2b0f262a-037b-4194-bdc3-64a9884e2ec3)
