Managing payments for orders
You can control when and how payments are captured for your orders. By default, payments are captured automatically when an order is placed, but you can configure your store to capture payments manually so you can review orders before charging customers.
Manual payment capture is useful when you need to do the following tasks:
- Verify inventory availability before charging customers
- Confirm custom orders with customers before processing payment
- Review orders for potential fraud before capturing payment
You can capture payments from the order details page in your Shopify admin.
For B2B customers or large orders, you can set payment terms that allow customers to pay after receiving their order. Deferred payment options let you offer net payment terms and send invoices that are due at a later date.
Some payment methods and sales channels process payments outside of Shopify. You can manage orders with pending payments and track payment status for orders placed through these providers.
