Hey @raven elm. Our docs for it are https://stripe.com/docs/payments/capture-later

And the hold is a real hold on the funds for that customer. We ask for $100 and the banks takes the funds and puts them on hold and then you have 7 days to capture or release the funds

Is the hold always $100 regardless of the amount argued via the API? or was that just an example?

#

that's just an example, you control the whole amount/currency. It's exactly the same as a normal payment, just you don't immediately get the funds

So, it's likely that repeated attempts to place a hold & cancel could result in failure if frequent enough? By the way, really appreciate your help!

yes you really shouldn't be doing this
