Authorization link only | Tern Feature Requests

Authorization link only

Strategic Albatross

I'd like to send a credit card authorization link only. Instead of a link that requires them to click on another button. A lot of my clients were not very tech savvy.

Amen yes please . The only reason I still have travel joy is because of this .sometimes I don’t need them to look at 70 details . I just need their credit card to book a hotel . 85% of the time the clients don’t approve or sign anything they just reply via e mail OK . They never click the room type blocks

They blow off all the tech .

I agree but it shouldn't always have to be linked to a trip first because sometimes it is just a planning fee before work begins and then we can tie it to a trip once the trip is established.

Okay Coral Agree 100%. There should be choices for what the payment is for.

Jasmine Kiwi

yes, totally agree

I agree that we need the option of just sending an authorization link only. Sometimes I get clients who are not tech savvy and just want to send me their credit card info securely an easier way.

I didn't expect this to be an issue when I started using Tern, but to my surprise, people who I thought were tech savvy enough, still have been confused by the link and what they are supposed to do. :(
