When you pay a company then it is often pending or awaiting authorisation until that company processes your order and captures the pending payment.
If they don't process the order and capture that payment then the pending status times out at 30 days post-payment and returns back to your funding source.
Reach out to the merchant and request cancellation of the order, then they won't capture the pending payment and 'may' be able to void it, if not it will time out at 30 days.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
