Pre-Authorization

info

This field marks the authorization as a Pre-Authorization (Pre-Auth).

Pre-Authorizations are used to reserve funds on the customer's card and allow for an adjustment later on.

If you are looking to adjust the amount, you must set the Manual Capture parameter to true, or at least have a capture delay configured.

These authorizations can be canceled or captured at a later time like regular authorizations. However, they do have an extended time period for those actions compared to regular authorizations.

Default:

• false
