The Delayed Capture feature allows you to authorize the availability of funds for a transaction but delay the capture of funds until a later time. You can use the [Create authorization](/api-references/api/operation/POST_CreateAuthorization/) operation to authorize a payment amount before capturing the payment. Subsequently, you can use [Create a payment](/api-references/api/operation/POST_CreatePayment) or [Create an order](/api-references/api/operation/POST_Order/) to capture the authorized funds, or use [Cancel authorization](/api-references/api/operation/POST_CancelAuthorization) to cancel the authorization.
