Creating a Pre-Authorisation
First step in a 2-step sale transaction.
Use this procedure when you want to reserve funds in the cardholder's account and charge it later. If the transaction is not completed within 30 days, the authorisation expires. If you or the customer decide not to proceed with the transaction, you should cancel the authorisation.
