Hold Orders With Pre-Authorization of Credit Cards

Shared by Kristen • May 09, 2023


Streamline operations and enhance customer experiences with the ability to pre-authorize credit cards told hold orders.

  1. Reduce the risk of lost payments: In a fast-paced and busy tasting room, it's essential to be able to run a tab for a customer and continuously add items during their visit. Pre-authorization resolves any concern of a customer accidentally walking out without paying first or the staff forgetting to close the tab.
  2. Improved Customer Experience: Rather than repeatedly asking your customers to provide payment information for each additional item added to an order, you can securely open a tab with the easy swipe of a card, to complete the final payment later.
  3. Increase Speed at Checkout: When it's time to check out, all items on a tab will close out to the pre-authorized card provided. This reduces the chances of errors and saves time for your staff.

Simplify the process of wine buying for your customers who browse on mobile devices. As customers scroll over a product and its details, their mobile device will lock the product title, price, and quantity with a 'Buy' button at the top of the screen. They no longer need to scroll for a lengthy period of time on the main shop page and product details pages to click and purchase. Placing the purchasing button in a fixed location promotes swift and effortless purchasing behavior.
