Pre-charge hold will cause transaction to fail
Be warned, I used a visa cash card to purchase this to shift the funds to my Amazon account.  Their process puts a .10 hold against the account which then caused the Visa Cash card to be short of funds.  For example: $500 Visa  Cash card to order a $500 Amazon gift card uses $500.10<br /><br />So the payment fails, and Amazon does not let you cancel the order.  All you can do is add a different payment method so then you get charged the full amount on your normal credit card and still have an unused gift card.<br /><br />Beyond stupid, if your going to pre-auth a card, why don't you revoke the pre-auth charge so the amount the customer enters can be billed correctly.
