Scenario for the Incremental Authorization Service

This sequence is an example of how incremental authorizations work:
  1. The customer reserves a hotel room for two nights at a cost of 200.00 per night. You request an authorization for 400.00. The authorization request is approved.
  2. The customer orders dinner through room service the first night. You request an incremental authorization of 50.00 for the dinner.
  3. The customer decides to stay an extra night. You request an incremental authorization of 200.00 for the additional night.
  4. The customer uses items from the mini-bar. The cost of the mini-bar items is 50.00. You request an incremental authorization of 50.00.
  5. When the customer checks out, they sign a receipt for 700.00, which is the total of all costs incurred.
  6. You request a capture for 700.00.
