Void an Authorization

Changed on

Use a PUT request to void an Authorization. If voided successfully, funds get released, and the transaction is incomplete. Additionally, a voided Authorization can no longer be captured. Depending on the cardholder’s issuing bank, voids can take up to seven days to remove the Authorization hold.
