Reverse Authorization
PaymentMethod
Reverse Authorization
Cancels a previously authorized payment before it has been captured. This is typically used to release a hold placed on the customer’s account — for example, when an order is canceled or the final amount is still uncertain.
The endpoint requires the original paymentMethodAuthorizationId, and will void the existing authorization at the processor level.
It helps avoid unnecessary charges or confusion on the customer’s statement and ensures accurate billing behavior.
Note: Authorizations can only be reversed if they haven’t been captured yet.
