If you are using a gateway like authorize.net, the buyer should be charged immediately.

To add to afo's comment, if you're using an interactive gateway to process transactions, you can usually do an immediate "capture" or you can "authorize only" and then do a manual capture later when the order ships.
Authorize.net allows this approach.

Ok, we do have Authorize.net. I do see you can set it to "Authorize" or "Authorize/Capture".
Is there some way that Zen Cart would first only authorize the order, then once we actually click the order as "shipped" in Zen Cart admin, it would then capture the order?
Sensei
At the present time, if you want to Capture after initially authorizing, you'll have to do that step manually.

You can still set it to auth-only before shipping.
But, you'll have to still capture separately.
