Common questions.

What are tokenised payments?

Tokenised payments involve replacing a customer's primary account number (PAN) with a unique, encrypted token. This token is then used for processing transactions, meaning the merchant never directly stores or transmits the actual sensitive card data.

How do tokenised payments enhance security?

Tokenised payments enhance security by removing sensitive card data from the merchant's environment. If a data breach occurs, only the non-sensitive tokens are exposed, rendering them useless to fraudsters, thus protecting customer financial information.

Do tokenised payments impact transaction processing speed?

No, tokenised payments do not negatively impact transaction processing speed. The tokenisation and de-tokenisation processes occur rapidly in the background, ensuring that payment authorisation times remain consistent with non-tokenised transactions.
