Registration & Information:

How the Online Payment works: Your credit card will not be charged immediately.  However, a pre-authorization check is done electronically to confirm validity and capacity of your account by msr.com, much like a hotel might do.  The pre-auth should fall off your account in 24-72 hours depending on your bank card's practices.  DEBIT CARD USERS, you can use your card on msr.com, but, you should treat the pre-authorization as a debit, and account for this, until the "hold" is dropped by your bank.
