mkaiserfl Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 When a customer places on online order, I only want to authorize their CC. Later, when I ship the order, I will actually charge their card. Does this sort of thing require a Contribution or is there something in the base product? Thanks. Quote Mike in Key West Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Allen Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 You can choose to have real-time authorization thru most gateway programs or not depending on your preference. If you are going to ship later then 7 days later then after the authorization was obtained this can cause an increase in the discount rate, to what is known as a non-qualified transaction. The non-qualified rate can be twice your normal rate and comprise 30% of your monthly costs. There are programs available that have a ZERO non-qualified rate, if you do the research. If you have further questions, feel free to drop me a line. Quote Steven Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeMcManus Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 It indeed depends on your payment solution/gateway, not necessarily on the osC contrib. Quote Johan a.k.a. T0PS3O elsewhere.

mkaiserfl Posted July 29, 2005 Author Share Posted July 29, 2005 It indeed depends on your payment solution/gateway, not necessarily on the osC contrib. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm looking at Authorize.net. Care to comment on their features in this regard? Quote Mike in Key West Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeMcManus Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 No idea, I don't use that conrib. Mine (ePDQ) allows you in the admin to choose whether to Auth or Pre-Auth. Quote Johan a.k.a.

mkaiserfl Posted July 31, 2005 Author Share Posted July 31, 2005 yes, authorizenet does this <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks, John. Yes, it looks like I can make a simple mod to authorizenet.php, so it will send an AUTH_ONLY request instead of the default "authorize and capture." Sounds easy.
