Authorize Security Deposit

Jessica avatar
Shared by Jessica • November 07, 2025

Hi there,

You can now choose to only authorize the security deposit when sending a Request for Review or Request for Payment.

Authorizing a deposit places a soft hold on the customer’s payment method without immediately charging it.


With this update, you can fully charge the rental order while simultaneously placing a hold on the deposit amount.

This means you no longer need to charge and later refund security deposits—simply hold the amount until the order is returned. If damages occur, you can then charge the held amount as needed.

New Feature: Quote Inventory Reservation

Hrant avatar
Shared by Hrant • October 09, 2025

Hi there,

We’ve added a new feature that allows you to automatically reserve inventory for quotes for a specific number of days, ensuring that items stay on hold while your client decides.

You can configure this under Settings -> Orders section using the new option:

“Reserve Inventory for Quotes (Days)”

  • Setting this to 0 means inventory will not be reserved for quotes.
  • When enabled, newly created quotes will hold the selected inventory for the specified number of days.
  • The reservation will be displayed on the quote page as:
    “Reserved Until [Date, Time]”
  • You can manually release the hold at any time by clicking “Release Reservation” within the quote.

Changing this setting only affects new quotes — existing quotes will continue to honor their original reservation period.
