    Changing the payment date: As a default, your payment date is seven days before the cancelation is due. Click Edit and proceed by following the steps to change the date sooner. You will not be able to change the date to later.
    Changing the credit card: You may need to change the credit card used, click on Edit and change the information. Double-check that the number added is correct. If the payment fails, you risk the reservation being canceled. Don't worry, you'll be notified via email if this happens.
