# How does Odeko handle invoicing and account credits, and how do I manage my payments?

## Billing at Odeko is not based on terms or contracts, only when you use the service!

You read that right - no contracts and no special terms! Instead, you only need to worry about invoices and payments on a **per order basis** for your **Supply Ordering**. This means no monthly bill for our delivery services, no hidden surprise fees, and no fixed memberships; just pay as you go, in full or in increments!

### Accessing Invoices & Payments

Viewing your café's **Invoices,** checking your **Balance,** making a **Payment,** and saving a **Stored Payment Method** are all accessed on your **Invoices** page.

**NOTE:** This article is intended for users with the role and permission level of **"Owner"**. A manager or barista will **not** have access to the invoicing module or payments. If you do not have access to this page but are an **Owner**, please reach out to your Account Manager or Onboarding Specialist.

### Credit Memos

On this screen, you will also find credits applied to your account, or **Credit Memos**. These are applied to your outstanding balance, after an order has been **reconciled** and processed ( [please click here for a reconciliation tutorial](https://helpcenter.odeko.com/knowledge/how-to-reconcile-an-order?hsLang=en)). These credits are applied against your balance as a whole, rather than a particular invoice. Should you have any questions or concerns on a credit applied to your account, please contact your Onboarder or Account Manager.

### Understanding Transaction Summary Table

Our **Transaction Summary** is a table of all invoices, payments, and credits for your orders through Odeko. Divided into the columns **Status, Date, Vendor, Total, Type,** and **PDF,** each section will hold various information. Please take a look at the key below to better understand each section.

### Making a Payment

Along the top of your **Transaction Summary** in large bold font, you will see your **Outstanding Balance**. Should you have a balance due, you will see a golden **Make a Payment** button on the top-right of your screen - click that to get started!

After selecting **Make a Payment**, a pop up box will appear asking if you'd like to pay your full balance, or a different amount -- this way, you can pay your bill gradually or upfront! You will be prompted to connect your bank account to **pay securely via ACH, or pay with a credit card.**

**NOTE:** Select **Remember this Card/Account** when adding a payment method for the first time! Credits will be sent to linked payment methods.

### Managing Payment Methods

If you wish to add a credit card or bank account to your file, and do not have an invoice to pay in order to store your method, simply click **Manage Payment Methods** on the top-right of your screen, and you will be able to add or remove credit cards and bank accounts agnostic of current invoices or payments!
