How to capture amount in future using braintree

Question

I am using braintree payment method on my magento store. I read their documents but I am not getting proper answer from that. So please help me.

I need to charge customer’s credit card in future which he used while placing an order. So it is possible with braintree payment method ? I am not talking about subscription but something like token or any key by using which I can charge credit card. ?

Is it also possible by Paypal method of braintree ? how ?

Thank you in advance

_{Full disclosure: I work at Braintree. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact support.}

First, I would take a look at the Braintree Magento support article. There is a lot of information on there on getting everything up and running. Specifically, make sure that you are setup to vault credit cards.

I'm not sure how this would work within Magento, but I would take a look at the Transaction#sale documentation. It sounds like you want to make a transaction using the payment method token:

$result = Braintree_Transaction::sale(
  [
    'paymentMethodToken' => 'the_payment_method_token',
    'amount' => '100.00'
  ]
);

You can also use just a customer id and it will charge that customer's default payment method:

$result = Braintree_Transaction::sale(
  [
    'customerId' => 'the_customer_id',
    'amount' => '100.00'
  ]
);

If this doesn't help, I would contact Braintree support. They might be able to help you further.
