In the default case, the `Amount` field of a [Payment transaction][] in the Ripple Consensus Ledger specifies the exact amount to deliver, after charging for exchange rates and [transfer fees](concept-transfer-fees.html). The "Partial Payment" flag ([**tfPartialPayment**](reference-transaction-format.html#payment-flags)) allows a payment to succeed by reducing the amount received instead of increasing the amount sent. Partial payments are useful for [returning payments](tutorial-gateway-guide.html#bouncing-payments) without incurring additional costs to oneself.
The amount of XRP used for the [transaction cost](#transaction-cost) is always deducted from the sender’s account, regardless of the type of transaction.
