Gotchya. Yea, that's good information to make available to Customers. I've had sites in the past where a few of my Customers were caught by surprise on this.

The amounts and techniques vary from one Payment Gateway and/or scenario to the next, but it's always good to make your Customer's aware of this possibility. Thanks!

Hi Jason...

Not sure if it was on a video or an online gaming site....but I seen it on most...Amazon web services do that even when you change your credit card information..

Verify The Credit Card

Hi Jason

Here something I found:

Q: Why has my credit card / debit card been authorized for $1.00 after registration?

A: Sometimes a $1.00 temporary authorization hold may be applied to your credit card / debit card after registration. The authorization procedure is required to ensure your card is valid. Typically, these holds are removed after 48-72 hrs. The full amount will immediately be credited back to your bank account or credit line. No permanent charges will be applied to your credit card for signing up as a regular member unless you purchase a membership.

Thank you

Sam
