Express Check Out / Pre-authorisations

This disclaimer message should be displayed on the receipts for Pre-authorisation Transactions with the unchecked opt-in checkbox available to the cardholder:

“In the event that I am not present at checkout, I accept that any final amount owed will be settled in the same currency and that the currency conversion will be performed using the rate in force on that date without further consultation with myself”.

Note: For CNP top ups and completions transactions using Online DCC and V3 specs, if DCC was done on the original Pre Auth, then the top up and, or Completion transactions should be processed as DCC. This is possible without requiring the merchant to manually select DCC as DCC is automatically selected on the host.
