Questions to Authorize.net Support:

Is verifyCard a valid transactionType in sandbox or production environments?
If not valid, what is the recommended way to validate a card (card number, expiry, CVV) without charging the card or placing a hold?
Could they provide a sample valid JSON payload for card verification?
