Pump Authorization Limit Increase – EMV Debit Transactions

Pump authorization limits are a security measure to protect consumers and merchants. Limits prevent a customer from fueling over a preset amount within a single pay-at-pump transaction.

To ensure customers receive consistent experiences whether they choose credit or debit on the same card, CHS Payment Solutions has made the decision to increase pump authorization limits for EMV debit cards from $100 to $175. This change was effective September 25.

If a cardholder experiences a hold on their card for an extended time, please communicate the transaction information to Payment Solutions Customer Support for additional research. If you have any questions about pump authorization limits, please contact CHS Payment Solutions at 800-852-5301.
