Issue Summary

Hi there
Very interesting module.
In the installation instructions, you mention "delayed payment".

Set your payment method to authorization only, uc_viral only works with delayed collection only previously authorized payments

I don't see anywhere in Ubercart where this can be configured.
Any tips?
Does it only work with certain payment methods?

Regards
Alan

#1

What payment method are you using? Only credit cards have the ability to 'authorize' a payment before the money is actually debited, so it wouldn't be possible to do something with paypal, for instance.

#2

On various different sites, I've used Paypal, Credit Card remote [user is send to another site to process payment], and Credit card on-site.

How could I set up a credit card to 'authorize' a payment before debiting.
I can't see any setting for that.
Do you configure a delay of predetermined length?

So the Credit card payment module I wrote only supports immediate processing.
I'll dig into the documentation from the payment provider to see whether I can support 'authorize only' too.
Thanks!
