Service charge About Canceling(void)

saravananzs — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 14:59:33 GMT

Step 1:I purchased and I authorized only 100$

now i am void(or Cancelling) the authorized 100$(not yet settled)

For Cancellation they will take any service Charge or they will return 100$

I need to Confirm before returning any deduction is there in the amount

Step 2: They will return the amount(100$) immediately using void method

or they will take 2 or more days for returning the amount

How many days they will take to return the amount?

Voiding essentially eliminates the transaction, they should get the entire $100 back. You'll probably still be charged a transaction fee, however. As for how long it takes to get back, RaynorC1emen7 said in another thread:

If I remember it correct. Even with a successful void, the issuing bank(customer cc) may or may not release the hold in timely manner.

This seems likely to be true, based on what the OP said.

Is there is any way to before settling the transaction to modify the amount?(Without CIM method)

I am tried with below scenario using AIM Method:

first authorized 100$(not yet settled)

suppose i need to charge 20$ more

then i (void) cancel the 100$ and i again i newlyauthorize 120$

In this case some trasnsaction fee there while Cancelling or voiding

without Transaction fee There is any way ?

For cancellation (void) time i dont want to loose any amount?

suppose I voiding 100$ i will get 100$ without any transaction fee

Is it possible to do?

Pleasae Help Me!!!!!

1)Please don't repost your question on multiple thread.

2)If you read the documentation, you will see that you can only capture the same or less amount on a PRIOR_AUTH_CAPTURE transaction after a successful AUTH_ONLY transaction.

3)As far as I know for any and every transaction, there will be a transaction fees. But to be sure, ask your merchant bank.

4)Not sure about what you talking about

"For cancellation (void) time i dont want to loose any amount?

suppose I voiding 100$ i will get 100$ without any transaction fee

Is it possible to do?"

When you void a transaction, you don't get any amount from the customer. That what VOID transaction does, to cancel the AUTH_ONLY transaction.

Not sure about what you talking about

"For cancellation (void) time i dont want to loose any amount?

Explanation:

Suppose One Customer Has purchased 100$(only authorized using AUTH_ONLY)

but still not yet settled the amount Now the customer has Cancelling (void) the 100$ amount

For cancellation any tranaction fee is there?

The customer will get 100$ or less then 100$(less the 100=99$)

the customer will loss(means any transaction fee has charged for void) any amount?

Thank you for your reply

On a AUTH_ONLY transaction, you are putting the amount on hold for you. NO amount is transfer into your merchant account until a PRIOR_AUTH_CAPTURE transaction. A VOID transaction will remove the hold for that amount. Since the amount was never go thru, your customer will not loss any money.

The transaction fee is pay by you, the merchant.

And about how much the transaction fees, again talk to your merchant bank.
