Submit authorize-only transactions (Authorize.net)

Hi,

Can you tell me how to configure the Authorize.net plugin to submit "authorize only" transactions?

I want to allow customers to place their order now, and have the transaction authorized (but not settled) immediately. Authorize.net allows customers to have their transactions authorized today, but settled (manually via their own merchant interface) at any point within 30 days. This is important because I ship weekly, and I want to finalize (settle) the charge just prior to shipping.

Authorize.net said that this could only be done through the cart plugin that I'm using, but I don't see this option in the Hikashop Authorize.net setup.

Many thanks...

Hi,

I think you missed the setting "instant capture" which is activated by default.
If you deactivate it, the transaction will be just authorized and not captured.

Hi Jerome,

Thanks very much for pointing this out. The Authorize.net plugin help screen had no information about that field, and my searches for "authorize only" in the forums didn't return any relevant results.

I appreciate your prompt response and excellent customer service.

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback. We've added it to the documentation.
