EMV Tokenization for all devices, channels, and payment use-cases One card, multiple payments ✅ Let's start with an EMV tokenization definition. EMV tokenization is digitizing a single physical payment card into several independent digital payments means through tokens. EMV Tokenization, in particular, is extremely valuable in a context where we use an ever-increasing number of wallets supporting multiple channels and payment use cases. The same credit card can have as many tokens as the end-user has enabled devices - such as smartphones and wearables, and wallets like OEM-Pays. Besides, as EMV tokenization is omnichannel, it can be used for in-store, in-app, or online payments. It all depends on the individual usage scenario. There's more. Tokens simplify life-cycle management because they can be suspended or deleted for a particular usage or device without impacting other tokens in use – they are entirely autonomous. ✅ How EMV tokenization in payment works When the end-user digitizes his payment card, the tokenization platform converts the primary account number or PAN into EMV Tokens deployed on different wallets and eMerchants. 🔹 Step #1: When the end-user performs a payment online, in-store or in-app, the merchant provides the token and related cryptogram as part of the authorization request to the network. 🔹 Step #2: Then, the Tokenization Platform verifies the transaction's validity and checks that it is the correct token of the right wallet or Merchant. 🔹 Step #3: It then uses the token vault to convert it back to the primary account number (PAN) and recalculate the related cryptogram before requesting transaction authorization from the issuer. It's as simple as that! ✅ What is EMV tokenization in payment? Every player in the digital payment flow needs token technology: from payment card-issuing banks to payment processors, domestic schemes to eMerchants, and private-label issuers to wearables manufacturers.
