# New checkoutChargeAmount field added to Cart object on Storefront API

As of GraphQL Storefront API version 2022-04, a new `checkoutChargeAmount` field has been added to `Cart`. It indicates the subtotal amount to be paid for this cart at checkout, not including any deferred payments. This field is currently restricted behind the `extend_selling_plans_api` beta flag.

The `checkoutChargeAmount` field is similar to the `subtotal` field. The `subtotal` field indicates the subtotal that will be paid altogether, including any payments that will be made at a later date. The `checkoutChargeAmount` is the actual price that will be paid at the time of checkout.
