Hi, it sounds like you'd want to look at this flow, https://docs.stripe.com/payments/place-a-hold-on-a-payment-method#authorization-validity-windows-for-card-present-transactions-(terminal) where you can place a hold on an account and then charge at a later time. In this case, after the items has not been returned. Please review the limitation here, https://docs.stripe.com/payments/place-a-hold-on-a-payment-method#auth-capture-limitations

Thank you, yes I have reviewed that previously.
Firstly: "Only some payment methods support separate authorization and capture. Payment methods that support this include cards, Affirm, Afterpay, Cash App Pay, Klarna, and PayPal."
Suggests to me that mobile wallets are not an option here, is that correct?
brisk summit
From your review, what questions can I answer?
lucid hamlet
^ please see my question above re mobile wallets
Secondly, our rental term is longer than 7 days. I see this note:
Extended Authorizations
Usually, an authorization for an online card payment is valid for 7 days. To increase the validity period, you can place an extended hold on an online card payment.
But I'm unclear how to increase this validity period.
brisk summit
cards should include ApplePay and GooglePay
lucid hamlet
I see
ok I've just now clicked through to these docs:
https://docs.stripe.com/payments/extended-authorization, so I see how that can be requested if_available. Though that is a bit unclear as well, if that's more to do with our business or the payment method in question.
brisk summit
I had to confirm with a teammate
lucid hamlet
So if I understand the docs here: https://docs.stripe.com/terminal/features/extended-authorizations (as I see the ones I linked are for payments, but we are talking about terminal), we can capture a physical card tap or a mobile wallet tap, use this to create the payment intent, set the capture_method to manual and request the extension, and all of that will result in the charge being deferred for 30 days unless we capture it in that time window?
brisk summit
Yeah, that eligibility is out of our wheelhouse so you'd want to talk to our support team, https://docs.stripe.com/terminal/features/extended-authorizations#availability.
Also, as far as ApplePay and GooglePay being supported, you might want to reach out to them as well as I can't test this on my end to confirm.
Yes, what you generally said is right
lucid hamlet
I see, ok thank you I will contact support. I was just in a chat with them but I think it was disconnected.
brisk summit
However, I can't confirm the wallet pay piece
lucid hamlet
cool, thanks for your help, I'll talk to support and see if I can clarify that.
