Authorize Method
Sends a Gift Card transaction.
Syntax
int Authorize();
Remarks
This method sends a Gift Card authorization request to the Vital/TSYS host. The type of transaction sent is based upon the value of the TransactionType property. If the request was successful, the ResponseCode property will contain "00".
Note that only ttPrepaidCardPurchase transactions are settled with the TSYSSettle class. All other transactions (including ttGiftCardPurchase) take place in real time. Instead of using this class to authorize Prepaid Card purchases, you may opt to use the TSYSRetail class instead. However, this class allows you to support PartialRedemption, and will also return the prepaid card's available balance in the ResponseBalance property.
