Network Token

Overview

The Network Token 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. These credentials are then seamlessly used in subsequent payment transactions through the Payments API when available, with no additional implementation required from your side.

Key Features

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

  • Seamless integration: No changes needed to existing payment flows

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

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

Use Cases

  • Enroll existing Firstoken tokens to benefit from network tokenization

  • Improve authorization rates for recurring payments

  • Enhance security for stored payment methods

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