Review the Payment Card Processing > Processing Payment Cards section for details on pre-authorization and a comparison to the Verify Card option.
Click the Verify Card button to validate the credit card information by sending a Pre-authorize command for ONLY $0.50 regardless of the payment amount. The customer will see a pending $0.50 transaction that will clear in 3-5 business days. The purpose of the Verify Card is to make sure the payment card is valid and store the card on the invoice (or customer account for stored cards). This option does NOT verify that the amount of the payment is available on the payment card. nd you will have to manually run the stored card for the invoice amount when you are ready to process the transaction, EBMS does not send a completion command during the invoice process like the Pre-Authorize option. But the Verify Card option does allow the user to process a payment using another payment method or card. This option does not debit or pre-authorize the payment card.
