Merchant handling
Actions to be taken
Do not provide the goods or services on this authorization. Follow the terminal and acquirer card-retention procedure only when it is safe and permitted; never confront the cardholder.
This is conservative merchant guidance derived from the published response meaning. Current scheme, acquirer, processor, merchant advice, and transaction-specific rules take precedence.
