The Pre-Arrival Credit Card Validation Batch Process allows the hotel to verify Credit Cards prior to check in by performing a $0 validation check and validating arriving reservations up to 7 days from the Current Business Date. The batch process allows users to run authorization validations for upcoming arrivals and review approval or failure results for proactive resolution; reducing check-in delays, and minimizing payment failures upon arrival.
