Capture the Credit Card with the PayNow button in the Invoice Email

The macro for the button is #PAYSTANDALONEBUTTON#

Transition

While transitioning some of your customers will be paying by Authorize and some by Stripe which is fine. When transitioned remove the Authorize panel from Setup > Integrations > Payment.
