Danish term or phrase: a conto beløb

The term is commonly used, - a lot of hits on Google, sometimes with "contobeløb" as one word, - but I've so far found no English equivalent. From the contexts, it seems to signify some method of payment.

Explanation:
depends on the context, examples:
"Du kan også vælge at betale 300 kr. aconto - så får du en e-mail sendt ud med nye lejligheds/værelsestilbud inden de lægges ud på websiden her. Er det een af de grøn baggrundsfarvede sider kommer der ikke noget tillæg udover de 300 kr. du betaler for at stå på mail-listen. Er det een af de "hvidsidede" - så kommer der et tillæg på 700 kr. "

"Tilbagebetaling kan ske gennem modregning i det a conto beløb, som Arbejdstilsynet opkræver efter stk. 3 og § 6, stk. 2."
