Token Management Service

The
Token Management Service
(
TMS
) links tokens across service providers, payment types, and channels for sellers, acquirers, and technology partners.
TMS
tokenizes, securely stores, and manages the primary account number (PAN), the payment card expiration date, customer data, and electronic check data.
TMS
enables you to:
  • Securely store a customer's payment details and their billing and shipping addresses.
  • Create a network token of a customer's payment card.
  • Manage sensitive data securely by creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting tokens through the TMS API.
TMS
simplifies your PCI DSS compliance.
TMS
passes back to you tokens that represent this data. You then store these tokens in your environment and databases instead of storing customer payment details.
TMS
creates one unified token identifier, a token of tokens, to centralize management of all payment credentials:
