New Features New Feature: Capture Pre-Authorized Amounts in EPASS!

May 26, 2026

Authorize a Payment Now and Capture it Later!

(Available for US and Canadian EPASS Pay Clients)

Big sales don’t always happen in a single moment and now, your payments don’t have to either. We’re excited to introduce a powerful new feature in EPASS Pay: pre-authorize a specific amount and capture it later!

You can now pre‑authorize an exact dollar amount on your customer’s credit card and then capture it when you’re ready.

What’s New (and Why It Matters)

Previously, timing could complicate payments. Now, with this feature you can:

  • Lock in a specific amount at the time of sale.
  • Hold those funds securely on the customer’s card.
  • Capture the payment later, when the job is done or the product is delivered.

Designed for How You Sell

This new feature unlocks a smoother, more reliable workflow, for both retail and service.

For our retail clients, when a customer commits to a purchase, you can secure payment right away, order or allocate inventory with confidence, and capture payment on delivery or pickup.

For our service clients, you can pre-authorize the quoted amount, have your service techs perform the work, and then easily capture payment once the job is finished.

No Reprocessing. No Surprises. No Friction

Enjoy greater payment confidence and smoother operations. Know that the agreed amount is secured before taking the next step in your sales process and align payment with delivery, fulfillment, or service completion.

This also adds up to a better experience for your customers, as they can commit to a purchase without being charged immediately, creating trust and flexibility.
