Voice Authorizing Credit Cards
From FloristWiki
Voice authorizations are done if you receive an error or message to contact the credit card company, or if the card was previously rejected and you want to receive verbal authorization from your credit card clearinghouse. You must be a member of the FTD Cash-Flo program to use voice authorization in FTD Mercury.
