Introduction

Use the Card Verification service to check a card is available for charging before a customer uses it to pay.

A card verification lookup will perform a zero value authorization against the card to ensure it is not fraudulent, blacklisted, expired or blocked. Essentially it lets you check whether the card and account are in good standing and available to make payment.
