You can confirm your order details after placing it online and you can also see it in your pending deliveries on the Manage My Kindle page, along with the price you'll be charged (free books say $0.00). You can cancel any before they are released and won't be charged, even for non-free books.
Thanks. I was just taken aback because I didn't expect to have to give my credit card for a free book. And I just ordered from Amazon yesterday (using the KSO coupon) so they have a current credit card on file.

I pre-ordered two more free books a little while later and it didn't ask for my credit card those times. Go figure.
