Incremental Authorizations

You may wish to configure your PayForm to collect an Initial Authorization Only.

This Authorization can be Reversed or Incrementally increased during your workflow and eventually finalized and sent for settlement. In order to Specify Authorization Only adjust your request as follows

"eFeatures": "0008",

This tells the PayForm that any dollar amount authorized will stay in a PENDING state awaiting any changes or Incremental increases you specify using our API.

Be VERY CAREFUL when setting this feature value; transactions collected here will rely on you to FINALIZE them using the API. If you do an Authorization Only for a dollar value, the merchant WILL NOT collect the funds until you FINALIZE the transaction.

Use this REST API call to execute incremental authorizations or finalize the transaction:
