Manually approve payments on your server

Run custom logic on your server before finalizing a payment.

Before finalizing payment, you can run custom logic on your server based on information collected from the customer.

Use manual approval to:

  • Perform inventory checks to make sure you have sufficient inventory to fulfill an order before confirming payment
  • Make sure that you can support a customer’s chosen payment information before confirming payment
