Why is my order being held when the bank shows the charge was approved?
When you place an order we will attempt to obtain an authorization from your bank for the amount of your order, this authorization is not a charge rather it is an approval from your bank that funds are available. When an authorization is obtained the funds authorized are held and not available for other use but are not removed from your account until the authorization is turned into a charge. The authorization does not become a charge until your order passes all fraud protection procedures and until your order is shipped. In the unlikely event you cancel your order before it ships, the authorization hold will automatically drop (within you bank’s terms) and it will never become a charge.
