Yes – you don’t have to debit the customer’s card immediately. You can perform a pre-authorisation (pre-commit) at the point of the transaction, which merely does an initial authorisation on the card including optional security checks. You typically have around three days to authorise the transaction. This varies by card scheme and can be as little as the next day and as much as seven working days.
From v9 onwards, you can complete the payment by opening the order within your SellerDeck desktop application, then on the payments tab click on the 'Commit' button. Actinic Express users should commit their payments in the SellerDeck Payments Admin area.
The pre-authorisation feature is particularly useful for merchants who like to check if they can supply all items before the full charge is made for them.
