How long does a transaction authorization or hold stay on my card?

When you make a purchase with your CINQ by Coinstar™ Debit Card, the merchant places a temporary authorization hold to confirm funds are available. We typically hold all transactions between 7 and 30 days. If the merchant finalizes (or “settles”) the transaction within that window, the payment clears and the funds are sent to the merchant. If the merchant does not settle within the applicable hold period, the hold is released after that period expires, and the funds become available again. Funds subject to an authorization hold cannot be accessed or spent.
