Deleting Tokenized Cards from Virtual Terminal

A tokenized card is a security-enhanced digital version of a payment card (credit, debit, or prepaid) where the actual card number (PAN) is replaced with a unique, random identifier called a token.

Here’s a breakdown of what that means and why it’s used:

How It Works

  • When a customer’s card is added to a payment system (like a Virtual Terminal, payment gateway, or mobile wallet), the real card number is not stored or transmitted.

  • Instead, the payment processor generates a token; a randomly created string of numbers and letters that represents the actual card.

  • This token can be used for future transactions (e.g., recurring payments, refunds) without exposing the card’s sensitive details.
