Method: Stripe::PaymentIntent#increment_authorization

Defined in:
lib/stripe/resources/payment_intent.rb

#increment_authorization(params = {}, opts = {}) ⇒ Object

Perform an incremental authorization on an eligible [PaymentIntent](docs.stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/object). To be eligible, the PaymentIntent’s status must be requires_capture and [incremental_authorization_supported](docs.stripe.com/docs/api/charges/object#charge_object-payment_method_details-card_present-incremental_authorization_supported) must be true.

Incremental authorizations attempt to increase the authorized amount on your customer’s card to the new, higher amount provided. Similar to the initial authorization, incremental authorizations can be declined. A single PaymentIntent can call this endpoint multiple times to further increase the authorized amount.

If the incremental authorization succeeds, the PaymentIntent object returns with the updated [amount](docs.stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/object#payment_intent_object-amount). If the incremental authorization fails, a [card_declined](docs.stripe.com/docs/error-codes#card-declined) error returns, and no other fields on the PaymentIntent or Charge update. The PaymentIntent object remains capturable for the previously authorized amount.

Each PaymentIntent can have a maximum of 10 incremental authorization attempts, including declines. After it’s captured, a PaymentIntent can no longer be incremented.
