5.1.13 Credit Pre-Authorization
A Authorization starts the purchase process by confirming that the Pre-Authorization amount is available on the Credit card and placing a hold on that amount. This is useful if the final amount of the transaction is not known. Once the final amount of the purchase transaction is known, an Advice transaction MUST be performed to complete the purchase process and transfer those funds to your business account.
Pre-Authorization transactions are commonly used in hotel, restaurant and car rental environments where the final amount of the sale is unknown when the card is first swiped. In these service-based environments, the Pre-Authorization transaction is often set as the default transaction started from the READY screen.
Note: Pre-authorizations can only be performed on credit cards with a magnetic stripe unless the CHIP CARD PRE-AUTH parameter is set to YES on the terminal.
