Important

At the moment, Split Authorization and Capture (Merchant Capture) is only supported by Credit Cards with Payments API.

What is Split Authorization and Capture (Merchant Capture)

For card payments, you can pre-authorize a card to reserve funds before you capture and process the payment at a later time, however, you have to capture the funds before the authorization expires.
You can view the expiry date for an authorized payment on the Payment Details page.

Once the authorization expires, the reserved funds are released and the payment is assigned an Expired status (you can not capture the funds after a payment expires).

What you need to know in advance

  • At the moment, we need to activate Split Authorization and Capture for your Mollie account on our side. Please contact Mollie Support [email protected] to enable it.
  • You can only create one capture per payment.
  • If you capture less than the authorized amount, the remaining amount is released.
  • The default capture mode in OXID is Automatically capture credit card amounts. You need to change the capture mode manually if you want to use the Split Authorization and Capture.
