# Capture Amount Exceeds Authorized

> The capture amount exceeds the authorized payment amount

## Cause

The capture amount is greater than the authorized hold. Guile rejected the capture; the hold is unchanged and no larger charge was taken.

## Fix

Capture an amount less than or equal to the authorized amount on [capture an appointment payment](/api-reference/appointments/capture-an-appointment-payment).

## Retry safety

Not retryable until the underlying state or request changes.

## Raised by

* [Capture an appointment payment](/api-reference/appointments/capture-an-appointment-payment)
