Some authors take pre-additive category to mean -enriched category, for example:

The Stacks Project, 12.3 Preadditive and additive categories [09SE]
Other authors require in addition the existence of a zero object (which, this being the empty coproduct, is the first step towards requiring more general finite coproducts as for an additive category, whence the terminology):
