Using your card at businesses where tipping is common, an additional tip amount may be temporarily added to the bill. The merchant authorizes this total amount on your Focus Card.
For example, if you’re bill is $25, the restaurant would authorize $30 ($25 + 20% tip). You choose to leave a tip in cash, so you sign the receipt for $25. In this scenario, the $30 authorization will remain pending until the restaurant collects their $25. After that, the 20% tip ($5) is freed up to use for purchases again.
