Pay a deposit or start a paid service

Where checkout appears, and what to check if a payment does not go through.

Updated 2026-10-11

Payment happens at the point where you start the work. A proposal with a deposit has a Pay deposit button. Services such as company formation and registered agent take payment at checkout during their intake.

Steps

  1. Open the proposal, or start the service from its page.
  2. Choose Pay deposit, or continue to checkout at the end of the intake.
  3. Complete the card checkout. When you return to the workspace you see the result.

Once the payment is verified, the service can move to activation. A message such as Payment confirmed. Your Institution service is ready for onboarding means the next step is yours.

If checkout does not work

  • Try a different browser or a private window, and turn off extensions that block payment pages.
  • Sign in with the same email you will use at checkout, so the purchase can be linked to your account.
  • If your card is declined, contact your bank, or use the billing contact form and we will help you find another way to pay.

You can see the result afterward on your Billing page and in your invoices.
