This transaction completes an authorisation for the payment where the funds are reserved on the payment instrument. The reserved funds cannot be spent by the user. A RESERVE must be followed by a FINALIZE to confirm the payment within a pre-determined period else the authorisation will be released by the bank. This period differs by bank that the customer is paying from and you should FINALIZE within seven days of submitting the RESERVE request.
