# Replenish your balance

This guide shows on how to replenish your company account balance at HackenProof

According to the rules of the HackenProof platform, the company has to replenish its account (deposit). This deposit will use to:

* to pay **hackers for valid bugs** on time.&#x20;
* to pay HackenProof **Bug Fee** according to your agreement
* to pay the HackenProof **hosting or triage services** fee according to your agreement. So, If you pay for Triage services monthly then we will charge money from your deposit.&#x20;
