The Partial Payments feature in Melio gives you greater flexibility in handling your vendor payments. You can split a single bill into multiple payments and choose different payment methods for each one.
Melio will automatically track your remaining balance after each partial payment.

Viewing remaining balances
After making partial payments, you can view the remaining balance on a bill by following these steps:
1 - Go to the Bills tab and locate the desired bill.
2 - In the Amount column, you’ll see the balance left to pay.
3 - Select or hover over the icon to check the original total amount of the bill.
The same action can also be performed from the Payments tab.
- Once the balance due on a bill reaches $0, the bill will be automatically removed from the Bills tab.
- In the Payments tab, partial payments related to the same bill will appear separately, but they share the same invoice number.
With that, you're all set to make partial payments and easily track the remaining balance on your bills.
