What is Credit Card Pre-authorization?
Pre-authorization of your credit card is technically an amount "hold" on your credit by a merchant who has initiated a charge, but not completely processed it. It temporarily reduces one's credit card limit, but it is NOT a transaction charge and will not be reflected in one's credit card statement. Depending of one's credit card bank's set up, the pre-authorized amount will drop off typically between 5 to14 days.
When the merchant actually completes the charge process, the pre-authorization amount will be replaced by an actual charge debited from your card.
Important points:
- We only accept credit cards for pre-authorisation.
- We swipe your credit card at check in to ensure you have enough funds to settle your final bill and we hold this amount throughout your stay. No money is taken from your credit card but it will show as a 'Pending Transaction'.
- The authorisation of your card will last the length of your stay and it will take 5 to 14 days after your departure to be released.
- You can use the same or different card to pay your final bill.
