What does authorized status mean for transactions?

The authorized status means that the transaction amount is reserved by the issuer, and the cardholder cannot use those funds for any other payments. 

You can now manually capture the transaction. Card schemes set different time frames for when the reserve expires and the funds become available to the customer again. 

For more information, see Authorization validity period.
