What is the News?<\/b><\/h5>\n

Reserve Bank of India(RBI) had issued guidelines banning the storage of customer card numbers by online merchants and payment aggregators and introducing the concept of Tokenization. These guidelines were scheduled to come into effect on 1 January but have now been postponed to 1st July 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n

How are the transactions processed today?<\/b><\/h5>\n

There are four-five players involved in processing one card transaction \u2014the merchant, the payment aggregator, the issuing bank and the card network.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Currently, when a transaction happens on a merchant platform, the data is sent to the payment aggregator (PA). The PA next sends the details to either the issuing bank or the card network.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Then the issuing bank sends an OTP and the transaction flows back. The number on which the transaction is built is the card-on-file(CoF)<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this method, CoF will be replaced with a token. But for this, an end-to-end rewiring of the processing leg is required.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
