Orders and payment authorization

Hello,   Here is an explanation of what I'm trying to achieve:   I have application where users can order food/drink from a restaurant and I want to achieve the following: User can select multiple items and proceed to the payment then when he approve the payment I want to authorize the order, but then he might go back and add more items then proceed with the payment again (I would also like to authorize that), in the end I want to have only one transaction for all items. Here is what I've been trying to implement:   I was creating an order and when the user is making the payment I was only authorizing the order, then when the user is ordering again I was using the void request (to cancel the previous authorization) and creating a new order with all the items and authorizing it, but my concern here is that the user may/will see all that (authorizing then cancelling then authorizing again) in their bank history and that is a bad user experience.  I was trying to patch/update the order, but once I authorize it (hold the users money) I cannot edit the order.   Please advise which approach should I use?   Thank you for your consideration   Kind regards, Aleksandar ...
