@ncsolarelectric As much as I hate being the bearer of bad news, you can’t do that currently, online Store or in person. Square does not have a pre-authorization/hold function to allow this.
I checked past threads on this subject here and while it is much requested I have seen no announcement.
I’d say go ahead and let the store process the sale, and then refund it if you determine the card was fraudulently used. But I’m not sure that is a satisfactory solution.
