[Trading & Cash Management](https://help.kooltra.com/knowledge-base/payments-portal?hsLang=en#trading-cash-management) # Deposits and Payments Using Cash Balances ## The Cash Balances section of the Client Portal allows users to view their account balances and manage deposits and withdrawals of their traded currencies. The Cash Balances section on the Home page of the Client Portal provides users with an overview of the balances they hold for each currency traded. For each currency, users can view: - **Balance:** The total amount of the currency held in their account. - **Available:** The amount available for execution, calculated as the balance minus any funds held for future trades or margin requirements. In addition, links are provided next to each Cash Balance to deposit or withdraw funds for that currency. These options are explained below. The **View Cash History** link, located beneath the Cash Balances table, allows users to view a detailed record (Cash History Blotter) of all deposits and withdrawals. ### **![](https://help.kooltra.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-11-29%20at%205-08-18%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=482&height=315&name=Screenshot%202024-11-29%20at%205-08-18%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)** ### **Deposit** The **Deposit** button next to the individual Cash Balances allows client portal users to add funds to their trading account for the relevant currency.

When making deposits or payments, the user may need to include supporting documentation as a part of their business requirements. With ease of use in mind, the Client Portal allows users to attach relevant documentation (such as invoices, contracts, agreements, etc.) to each deposit or withdrawal. ![](https://help.kooltra.com/hs-fs/hubfs/d44cb2e1-4bb8-464e-8290-37100a8560a5-png.png?width=520&height=118&name=d44cb2e1-4bb8-464e-8290-37100a8560a5-png.png) #### Margin Summary for Account The **Margin Summary for Account** section of the Home page shows users the total margin available for trading. This is calculated as all cash balances held on account converted into base currency (in this example CAD) less any margin requirements for that client. ![](blob:https://kooltra.atlassian.net/755c531b-8fe7-49bf-ac6b-73744d802484#media-blob-url=true&id=ed04308a-b51d-4d18-9e7d-9474a07832d6&collection=contentId-2537816171&contextId=2537816171&mimeType=image%2Fpng&name=MPjyAof2iB_zQ2zBHwP9xi5XQntbQOEtSiMCIjcvF9zWN-iBSVWUffFyhfnGK_s6RQTkSFnCixFuzquhnkSvGEfUWIXU_nQ_TzXZ8klNQ3nwDCWk2RK2Y7A-DDgMeQavzDq0VKe8&size=20541&width=800&height=238&alt=)![](https://help.kooltra.com/hs-fs/hubfs/fe8efe0a-95e1-44b6-a0b5-5c739c6fa5c3-png.png?width=534&height=159&name=fe8efe0a-95e1-44b6-a0b5-5c739c6fa5c3-png.png) -
