# Update the reserved amount of an applied gift card

Updates the amount for the reservation identified by `card_number_hash`. The balance is read from cache to avoid a gateway round-trip.

The new amount is subject to the same caps as the apply step, with one adjustment: the card's current reserved amount is temporarily added back to the unpaid total so the calculation treats it as if the card were not yet applied.

1. Cannot exceed the cached available balance
2. Cannot exceed the unpaid total (including this card's current amount)
3. Cannot push the cumulative gift card total above `GIFT_CARD_CONFIG.max_amount_per_order`

After the update, the previously selected payment method is reset so the payment step is re-evaluated.

**Cache expiry**: If the cached balance has expired, the reservation is automatically removed. The response returns an error asking the user to re-add the card.

**Required Fields**:

* `card_number_hash`: Hash identifying the reservation to update (max 255 chars)
* `new_amount`: New desired amount (decimal, must be greater than zero)

**Validation**:

* `new_amount` must be greater than zero
* If the final capped amount resolves to zero, a validation error is returned
* If `card_number_hash` is not found among the applied cards, a validation error is returned

**Next Pages**:

* `EmptyPage`

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://apidocs.akinon.com/commerce-openapis/checkout/gift-cards-gift-boxes-and-loyalty/update-the-reserved-amount-of-an-applied-gift-card.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
