Connector Contracts - Payment Authorise

Authorization transactions reserve funds in the customer’s account to be used in a future payment.

Note that in most cases, this flow should be handled on the e-commerce side but may be applicable for certain types of integration (like “store credit”). Please do not share customer credit card details with Fluent.

Flow

Payment is usually authorized when an e-commerce order is placed. This authorization ensures the retailer can get funds from the customer once the items are shipped.

The payment Service Provider validates the received authorized payment request and sends a valid authorized payment response token back to the Connector; the Connector sends the token back to the Fluent system for further processing of the order.
