SecureTrading Card Store & Tokenisation

Built into the SecureTrading API, SecureTrading Card Store and Tokenisation solutions provide you with a reference number (or token) that is used in place of the card number for all refunds or repeat transactions.

SecureTrading allows you to generate this token either as part of the transaction through Tokenisation or without a transaction, for example as part of a customer sign up process, through Card Store.

The customer registers a credit or debit card with SecureTrading to store the sensitive card details required to process a transaction, including card number and expiry date. Upon receipt of the card details, SecureTrading sends a unique reference number (a Token number) in return that will be used for future transaction payments.

Benefits of…

Card Store & Tokenisation

  • The creation of a token eliminates the need for customers to repeatedly enter credit and debit card details and for merchants to send sensitive card details to acquirers via SecureTrading.
  • Speeds up the entire payment process for returning customers.
  • Reduces your PCI compliance bill by over 50% by taking care of the storage of the card number.
  • Enables you to capture marketing information as part of a sign-up/registration process.
  • Enables additional features such as order tracking and auto completion of customer details.
  • Card Store enables you to capture the card and ensure it is live without having to ring fence any funds on the card.

The key benefit of SecureTrading Card Store and Tokenisation is clear; as the token is used in place of the card number you don't have to incur the expense of developing your system to store data in a PCI compliant manner. It is estimated that using either Card Store or Tokenisation can cut your PCI compliance bill by more than 50%.
