I feel like companies should do a better job of naming their payment entity something that a customer can know when they see it.

- cherioo 5mo agoIt’s 2026, why can’t credit card and merchant figure out a way to transmit order summary URL as part of credit card transactions so I don’t need to match up transactions by amount??

- martin8412 5mo agoA similar thing as what you propose already exists in the Nordics. You pay with your card as normal, and the receipt gets logged automatically in the app. https://en.storebox.com/#/ https://en.storebox.com/#/ Not universally supported unfortunately, but the major stores support it.

- shric 5mo agoIn what backward place does this happen? It shows up the second I pay here (Australia)
- dahcryn 5mo agoit's common, they reserve an amount, and then update towards the final payment. These are not payments as such, and almost always take 48 hours to clear. Same at hotel rooms usually etc.. Many banks only show payments (so only after cleared) and not reserved funds. They will just show that you don't have the full credit available
- lxgr 5mo agoThe update with the final amount happens within minutes after you’re done pumping, not only at batch clearing time. This was introduced to not unnecessarily block debit card funds for days but it works like that for credit cards as well now.
