Preauth

Preauth helps businesses take and manage payment guarantees by reserving funds on a customer's card for as long as needed, then collecting partially or in full when required. Used across car rentals, public space rentals such as malls and pop-ups, and other asset and equipment rentals, Preauth provides a single dashboard for owners, finance, and operations teams to create, update, renew, charge, and release guarantees. The company has secured more than USD 20 million in guarantees across five Latin American markets — Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, and Argentina — integrating with payment processors including Mercado Pago, Izipay, dLocal, Stripe, and Kushki, and holds ISO 27001:2022 and SOC 2 Type II security certifications.
