Authorizations

Authorizations are used to authorize a payment to be charged with a specific amount at the target gateway. An authorization confirms that a payment card account holds enough funds to pay for a purchase. In this requests no funds are taken and if you wish to move the funds, you have to make a capture transaction after an authorization.

You can use these endpoints with your card information or using our tokens as explained below
