# How to Enable Stripe Payment Hold in Paymattic 

With [Paymattic](https://paymattic.com/) you can use the **Place a Hold on a Payment**optionof [Stripe](http://stripe.com). Place a Hold Payment system of Stripe is, when you make a payment, you can temporarily set aside money from a valid payment method. This holds the funds until you’re ready to complete the transaction. 

## Enable Place a Hold on a Payment 

To learn how to enable Place a Hold on a Payment, follow the steps with the screenshots below – 

First, go to the **All Forms**section from the **Pymattic Navbar, and**opena**Payment Form**by clicking the**Pencil icon**with the**Stripe**payment method added.

If you do not have any existing **Payment form**, read this [Documentation](https://paymattic.com/docs/how-to-create-your-first-payment-form-in-a-minute-and-accept-payments-with-paymattic/) to learn how to Create a Payment Form.

For example, I choose an existing **Payment Form** to show the whole process.

Once you open the **Editor** page, click on the **Settings** icon of the added [**Stripe** **Payment** **Method**](https://paymattic.com/docs/how-to-configure-stripe-payment-gateway-in-wordpress-with-paymattic/) field.

## Capture the Hold Payment

Once the Hold Payment option for Stripe is enabled in a specific Payment Form, **Authorized** payment status will appear in the form entries after each form submission.

**To learn how to capture the hold payments through Stripe in a Payment form, follow the steps with the screenshots below – **

First, go to**Paymattic Dashboard** from the **WordPress Left Sidebar,** click the **Entries**section, and click the **View Details** button of the desired **authorized** form entry.

Now, you can capture the payment by clicking the **Capture** button. Also, if you want to capture the payment amount from the Stripe dashboard, click the **View on Stripe** button.

Remember, to capture the payment from **Stripe Dashboard** you have to add the ‘**charge.capture**‘ webhook. To know how to add this webhook you can follow this [Documentation](https://paymattic.com/docs/how-to-configure-stripe-payment-gateway-in-wordpress-with-paymattic/#3-toc-title).

After clicking on the **Capture** button a**Capture Payment** popup will come.
Now input the amount you want to capture and click the **Capture** button. 

For example, here I captured 5 dollars out of 10 dollars.
