Description: Partial Authorization and Reversals
To better support prepaid credit and debit cards, CounterPoint can now obtain an authorization for an amount that
is less than the amount due for a ticket or order via CPGateway or CPDialup.
For example, if the Total for a ticket is $30.00 and the customer presents a prepaid credit card with a balance of
$25.00, CounterPoint will obtain an authorization for $25.00, and then prompt the user to tender an additional payment
for the remaining amount due.
In addition, CounterPoint now also supports full reversals of credit card authorizations, allowing authorized credit
and debit card payments to be deleted from a ticket or order before the document is complete. You do not have to perform
any additional configuration to begin using this feature.
Note: Partial authorizations are only possible for Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express transactions.
Reversals are only requested for Visa, MasterCard, and Discover transactions.
Partial authorizations and Full reversals are only supported for FDMS North, Vital, and American Express.
Other pre-paid functionality such as activation, reload, and balance inquiry are not supported at this time.
