UseofTokensinthePaymentsIndustry

– Tokensreplacebankcardnumbersatdifferentpointsintheprocess

• Tokensreducecardvulnerabilities• TokensreducePCIcomplianceburdens

– Tokenscanbegeneratedinmultipleplaces• MerchantGeneratedTokens• Acquirer/ProcessorsGeneratedTokens• NetworkGeneratedTokens

13

MerchantGeneratedTokens

– Merchantgeneratestokenwhencardnumberisfirstenteredintomerchantsystem

– Tokendatabasebehindfirewallsandpublicaccess(e.g.cc‐motel,Fluffy,CardVault,etc.)

– Allfurtheractivityforcustomeronlyusesthetoken,notthecardnumber

– Tokenisconvertedtoactualcardnumberwhenitistimetoauthorizepayment

14

Acquirer/ProcessorGeneratedTokens

– CardisswipedatPOSandPAN,trackdata,andexpirationdateareencryptedandsenttoprocessordatacenter

– Cardnumberisdecryptedandsenttoissuerforauthorizationandtotokenizationserverfortokenassignment

– Processorreturnsauthorizationandtokentomerchantwhoproceedstostoreonlythetoken

– Settlement,refunds,adjustments,chargebacks,etc.usethetokennumber,notthecardnumber

• Issuingbankapprovescardnumbertobetokenized• VisaorMasterCard“tokenize”thecardnumberandsendstokenbacktoapp

• ApplePay“provisions”(i.e.stores)tokenontoSecureElement(SE)iniPhone“binding”ittoauniquedevice(DAN)
