Tokenization

Tokenization is a security feature that enhances the protection of sensitive payment information. It involves replacing sensitive data, such as credit card numbers, with a unique identifier known as a "token". You can use tokens to process payments without exposing the actual card details, thereby reducing the risk of data breaches.

Benefits

  • Enhanced security: By substituting card details with tokens, sensitive information is not stored or transmitted in its raw form.
  • PCI compliance: Tokenization helps to comply with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) by minimizing the storage of sensitive data.
  • Ease of use: You can use tokens in place card details for repeat transactions, subscriptions, and other payment process, simplifying the payment journey.
