💳 What is a pre-authorization?

A pre-authorization is a temporary hold on your credit card (not a charge) of $300–$500 depending on the rental and coverage selected. It is not a payment made to Globe.

📌 How is it refunded?

  • Globe will not refund it, since the hold is automatically released by your bank within 3 to 30 business days, based on their processing time.

  • Globe cannot expedite this process as it depends on your card issuer’s policies.
