Tokenization

Tokenization is a process to convert card number and expiry date into a unique alphanumeric string (eg. 1a2e41235sdwesdfgb125) called token. This token represents the buyer's card details, so that you do not have to handle the real credit card information. This reduces your PCI-DSS Scope and enhances security.

Tokenization happens on the front-end such as browser or mobile app. When tokenizing, public API key is used. GetzPay offers single-use or multiple-use toknes, based on your business needs.

Single Use Token	Multiple Use Token
Valid for only one transaction	Valid for multiple transactions
Token is unusable after one transaction is completed	Once the card details have been tokenized once, this do not repeated for future charges
Expires in 30 days (if transaction is not completed), or when the card expires	Expires when the card expires
