Following on from Ben’s post. I think ~~this is an offline transaction~~ (someone else will confirm this) & that’s why only the authorization charge is made.

I tried to highlight the problems these transactions cause here

These lower authorisations, followed by a larger amount being debited from your card obviously makes it much harder to manage your balance. This issue could partly be solved by enabling users to set aside the actual amount that’s due to be debited from the card, a variation of this idea but that would be a manual process. Does Mondo know what the final amount that will be charged will be? If so,…

& I’m now hoping to be able to manage these payments by setting aside the upcoming payment in a [virtual saving pot](https://community.monzo.com/t/virtual-savings-accounts/727) which is on the roadmap [here](https://trello.com/c/egD9vhRT/29-saving-pots-virtual-savings-accounts).
