What happens when I temporarily block my card?
Temporarily blocking your Card prevents it from being used for new purchases. However, recurring bills, such as subscriptions or monthly bills, will post to your account as usual. Also, your Card can still be used for digital wallet transactions (for example, a purchase you paid for using your mobile device with Samsung Pay), and some online purchases at merchants where your Card is on file. Offline authorizations (such as purchases made aboard airlines), and delayed authorizations will also still post. Your Card will be unblocked automatically, 7 days after you first block your Card.
