What is the function of the “Authorize” button in my orders admin page?
You’ll see this button if someone has gone through checkout but hasn’t made it back to your store, this may be because they’re just playing around with the cart, have decided at the last moment not to purchase or there was a glitch on the Processor’s site. Only hit the authorize button after you’ve checked with your Payment Provider and are sure the payment has been made correctly. You can set the amount of time that unauthorized orders appear on your store in the admin section.
