Tokens

Using our tokenization service you can tokenize re-usable payment data like card data, bank account data including Direct Debit Mandates and PayPal BillingAgreementIDs. The main purpose for tokens is re-use of payment details. The additional benefit is that you do not need to store any sensitive payment details on your server, while still having the benefit to be able to re-use them. This allows you to process recurring card transactions without actually having access to the real card data.

Tokens can be used for two types of transactions:

  • Recurring: Automatically charging your consumer in a regular, e.g. monthly, time frame;
  • One-off: Charge the consumer without the consumer having to re-enter all of their payment details.

The second scenario can be used to facilitate a one-click checkout solution, that would still allow the consumer to enter only their CVV value for a card transaction. CVV values can't be tokenized as they are not allowed to be stored at all.

Besides the re-use of payment data, tokens have one other major use-case: Direct Debit Mandates. Especially SEPA Direct Debit transactions require that the mandate for the transactions is managed through a token with an associated mandate. Mandates are created in one go with the token, but can have a state that requires that they are approved before they can be used. As the mandate process is in most cases an offline process the approval will allow you to set the location and date where and when the mandate was signed by the consumer. Without an approved SEPA mandate you will not be able to process any payments regarding this mandate.

Request

Use DELETE on a specific token to remove or invalidate it. You will not be able to undo this deleting and will not be able to use the token in the future. In case you are deleting a SEPA Direct Debit you can set the date on which the mandate is to be cancelled.
