Hello @kjian1,
Welcome to the PayPal Community! I understand you've run into some issues with a recent transaction, I'd be happy to try to clear things up a bit. Normally, when you start a Pay in 4 transaction, you'll see the pending authorization in your PayPal activity along with the first completed payment. If you do not complete your Pay in 4 transaction, the pending authorization will be automatically voided by PayPal within 72 hours of the pre-authorization hold.
If you still have any questions, please feel free to reach out to our Customer Support teams for assistance.
Best wishes!
- Jon K
