"description": "This request is for authorising a CP Swipe transaction (Customer present eg. in shop at terminal).\r\n\r\n- Funds can either be captured (taken) from customer automatically or else at a later stage. \"capture_mode\" is where you can edit the capture status. \r\n - \"LATER\" = funds will be taken from customer at a later stage. A Successful response should return a transaction id (TRN_....) and should indicate that transaction status is 'preauthorized'.\r\n A 'Complete Capture' request is required to complete transaction.\r\n - \"AUTO\" = funds will be taken from the customer automatically. A Successful response should return a transaction id (TRN_....) and should indicate that transaction status is 'captured'. \r\n No additional request is necessary.\r\n\r\n- Account name is which account of the api you want to send the request to, so in this case it is Transactions. Other accounts available include Disputes, Settlements and Tokenizations.\r\n- Amount is the amount of money being charged to the customers card. How the amount is written is that \"100\" equates to $1.00, not $100.\r\n- Payment Method is how the customer has paid for the transaction. Here we see if it was ECOM (website), MOTO (over the phone) and their card details.\r\n- Reference is a specific unique reference for each transaction given by the merchant. This could be an order number or an invoice number etc.\r\n\r\nFor more details on a CP AUTH request, visit: https://developer.globalpay.com/api/transactions#/Create/post_transactions"
