A Credit Card Pre Authorization Form is essential for businesses that need to secure future payments or verify payment capability before providing services. This document, governed by Austrian law, enables merchants to temporarily reserve funds on a customer's credit card without immediate charging. It's commonly used in hotels, car rentals, and other services where final charges may vary or where security deposits are required. The form must comply with Austrian Banking Act (BWG), EU GDPR requirements, and the Payment Services Act (ZaDiG 2018). It includes essential information such as authorized amounts, duration of the authorization, cardholder details, and explicit consent for data processing. This document serves as a security measure for businesses while ensuring transparency and protection for customers under Austrian consumer protection laws.
