# Fund As You Go and Topping Up Allocations
**What is Fund As You Go?**
Otherwise referred to as "partial funding", this allows you to deposit tokens up to cover unlocks that happen up until the "Fund Till" date. Selecting that date will calculate how many tokens are needed to fund up until the unlocks that happen before that date.
**Note:** All allocations within a contract need to be funded through the same date. When you Start & Fund new allocations, they will automatically default to funding until the previous Fund Till date.
When you want to fund through a later date, referred to as "topping up" the contract, you will need to use the Top Up action.
### Topping Up
For our merkle contracts, allocations are all funded until the same date. This date is displayed in the dashboard under the "Contracts" section: "Escrow Contract Funded Until" column. If that column is empty, it means the allocations are 100% funded.
Topping up deposits more tokens through a future date such that the claims until that date are fully funded.
**How to top up:**
1. Go to the Allocations Tab
2. Click "Actions" in the top right
3. Select "Top Up"
4. Select the future date to fund through
5. Click "Continue"
6. Navigate to the transactions tab and sign the associated transactions.
1. For EVM: There will be two transactions. "Approve" and "Fund Contract". Please execute them in this order.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.magna.so/admins/product-guides/how-to-fund-allocations/how-to-fund-claims/fund-as-you-go-and-topping-up-allocations.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
