Can I use a chained payment in combination with 3-day capture?

Question

User makes a request. Request may or not be fulfilled within 3 days.

If not, no payment processed. If yes, user payment processed and payment to primary receiver.

At a later date, the primary receiver will manually relinquish payment to the secondary receiver.

Can I use a delayed capture with the chained payment? Does it make sense?

Answer 1

Sounds like you'd need to use a Preapproval profile for the first part, and then you could hit the Pay API within that 3 days and process the chained payment using the Preapproval key. That would send the funds to the primary receiver, and then you'd use ExecutePayment to trigger the secondary payments when you're ready to process them.
