Network Token

Overview

The Network Token Enrollment endpoint allows you to enroll stored Firstoken tokens in the card networks' tokenization programs (Visa Token Service and Mastercard Digital Enablement Service). Network tokens provide enhanced security and improved authorization rates by replacing traditional card credentials with network-generated tokens.

When a Firstoken permanent token is successfully enrolled, the platform automatically provisions network payment credentials internally. You have two options for using these credentials:

  1. Automatic integration: Use credentials seamlessly with Firstoken's Payments API (no code changes required)

  2. External processor integration: Retrieve credentials to use with external processors that support network tokens

Key Features

  • Automatic provisioning: Network tokens are provisioned internally after successful enrollment

  • Flexible integration: Use with Firstoken Payments API or retrieve for external processors

  • Seamless payments: No changes needed to existing payment flows when using Firstoken's API

  • Enhanced security: Network tokens reduce fraud risk and improve payment security

  • Better authorization rates: Network tokens typically have higher approval rates

  • Automatic lifecycle management: Card updates are handled automatically by issuers

Use Cases

  • Enhance security for stored payment methods

  • Comply with card network recommendations for credential-on-file transactions

Use with External Processors

  • Retrieve network payment credentials for processors that support external network tokens

  • Integrate with processors like Rede, Credibanco, or others that accept network tokenization

  • Leverage Cybersource TMS for network token provisioning while processing with your preferred processor
