Confirm an Order Payment by Credit Card (Stripe Integration)
Overview
This feature allows you to capture payment for orders made by credit card using the Stripe credit card payment integration.
Purpose
For orders made by credit card, capturing authorized payments at the appropriate timing ensures proper control over payment processing.
Depending on the Credit Card Payment Capture Timing settings, payments can be captured either "at the same time as confirming the order confirmation" or "manually".
Feature Description
Prerequisites
To use this feature, the following conditions must be met:
- The Stripe Credit Card Payment Add-on is in use.
- The Credit Card Payment Capture Timing for orders is set to either "Capture payment when the order confirmation is confirmed" or "Capture payment manually".
- The target order is in an uncaptured payment state.

It explains the procedure for setting the timing to capture payments for orders on a per-brand basis.
Two Routes for Capturing Payment
There are two routes for capturing payment: "Capturing payment at the same time as confirming the order confirmation" and "Capturing payment manually".
The available routes are determined by the Credit Card Payment Capture Timing settings:
-
Capturing payment at the same time as confirming the order confirmation:
Payment can be captured by either "Confirming the Order Confirmation" or "Bulk Confirming Order Confirmations".
Even if the Credit Card Payment Capture Timing for the order is set to "Capture payment manually", confirming the order confirmation will forcibly capture the payment.
For details on confirming the order confirmation, refer to Confirm an Order Confirmation.

Capturing payment manually:
Only the credit card payment capture process is performed, without creating or confirming an order confirmation.
Notifications for the Payment Authorization Deadline
