How do I settle my account when I check out? Do I have to swipe my card?

If it is pre-authorization, then the transaction needs to be confirmed the next day; If it's ordinary consumption, you don't have to swipe your card again.

Pre-authorization refers to the cardholder's consumption in hotels, hotels or leasing companies, and the consumption and settlement are not completed at the same time, and the special unit.

The so-called "pre-authorization" means that when the cardholder checks into the hotel, the hotel estimates the consumption amount according to the number of days of stay and the provisions of the hotel's prepaid deposit, and requires you to swipe your credit card for "pre-authorization", that is, pay the deposit. Hotel cashier swipes the card 1200 yuan. In fact, the money is still on the cardholder's card and has not been paid to the hotel, but the amount has been frozen. The POS slip is blank, not the proof of bank card deduction.

When you check out, the hotel will destroy the original blank pre-authorized POS list, and go through the "pre-authorized completion" procedure according to your actual consumption situation to check out again. Some banks call it "pre-authorization confirmation".

The "Pre-authorization Confirmation" form is a new form issued by the hotel. The hotel will ask the cardholder to re-swipe the card and re-sign. After deducting the actual consumption amount from the pre-authorized amount, the remaining frozen funds will be unfrozen. At this time, the amount of the credit card is the real fee paid to the hotel.
