Hi 👋 no, if a payment has not been captured, the funds have not been pulled for the payment. That doesn't mean the authorization won't appear on the customer's account though.

If you're in the US (not sure if other countries operate in a similar fashion) then this is similar to how most gas stations authorize cards for $1, and you sometimes see that $1 authorization on your account until the payment is later updated to the full price of the transaction.

So, is there any way I can remove that authorization and cancel all such payments?

Yes, you can use this endpoint to cancel Payment Intents that have not yet been captured:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/cancel

We don't have insight or control over how long it will take the customer's bank/issuer to remove the authorization from their account though, so it may not be instantaneous.
