Payflow Pro SDK - Authorized Transaction using OrigID

Question

I need to create an Authorized transaction but instead of using the credit card number I need to use the OrigID which was generated from a previous payment? Is this possible if so how would I achieve this?

1. Customer places and order -> Authorization is done using the credit card number
2. Order is shipped and invoiced -> Payment is captured using a reference transaction.
3. Same customer places another order -> instead of having to get the credit card details - use the "token" generated from the first transaction (while it is still valid).

Hope this makes sense.

Answer 1

You can use the transaction id that is generated from the first transaction to process additional transactions for the buyer without having to have the buyer enter in their credit card information again. You would need to enable reference transactions on your account, and store the transaction id's on system. Then when you want to charge a buyer again, you would just pass over the transaction id of the previous transaction instead of the credit card information.
