Tokenization is powering today’s secure digital payments

Most businesses with an online presence depend on tokenization to help protect their customers’ sensitive card information during transactions. But managing tokens in your ecosystem can be complex and they require maintenance (when a customer changes their bank or a card is lost, stolen, or expires).

Create a more complete view of your customers

Cybersource’s Token Management Service dramatically simplifies this complexity by connecting your payments, customer data, and other network tokens into a unified proprietary super token that provides you with a 360-degree view of your customers’ buying behaviors across all channels and payment types.

The super token: A Cybersource innovation

Our Token Management Service is the only service of its kind that links tokens from different networks, issuers, and channels to help you simplify complex payment environments. The super token also includes alternative payments such as eCheck, ACH, and other debit products. And Token Management Service’s brand-agnostic platform processes network tokens for both Visa and Mastercard.

By bringing together tokens from different card brands, banks, payment types, and channels, our super token provides a 360-degree view of your customers’ buying behaviors. With this insight, you can build long-term relationships and make customer loyalty and rewards opportunities part of every online, mobile, and in-store transaction.
