# Create authorization
Create authorization is also known as Reservation of funds
An authorization is the reservation of a specified amount of money on a cardholder's credit/debit card. Authorization can be made for purpose of a one-off payment or for a recurring payment.
Depending on the type of your integration, 3D Secure might be performed by Intergiro or by the integrating party. If 3DS data was not provided a verification required error will be returned.
To create an Authorization
, you need to prepare an Authorization creatable
.
