Payment token

Payment token is a cryptogram used for safe card data transfer. It can be safely passed and saved to any system (for example, merchant server). It's a good solution for merchants that want maximum flexibility or don't want to deal with card details on their servers.

Paying by token

In payment, token can replace card data such as card number, CVC, expiration month, and expiration year. To use a token for payment:

1. Create a payment by /payments method.
2. Pass the payment token value in paymentMethod -> card -> token parameter. Don’t specify cvc, expiryMonth, expiryYear, and number parameters, because all these parameters are replaced by token.

Therefore, the card block of paymentMethod should contain either cvc, expiryMonth, expiryYear, and number parameters, or token.

Generating token
