Keep cards on file

Keep cards on file for travel bookings: deposits, balances and later charges

Keep a guest's card for deposits, balance payments and charges after the booking. The 3D Secure data stays with the token, so the later charge can carry it. Your system triggers each charge, through each merchant's own provider.

In the vault

What a stored card carries

One token for the whole card

Number, CVV, expiry and the 3D Secure result, all behind one token.

The 3D Secure result

Kept with the card, so a later charge can carry it to the payment provider.

CVV kept by your rules

PCI DSS does not allow the CVV to be kept once it has been used. You decide what "used" means, for the whole account or card by card.

Current cards

Network tokens keep a stored card working when the bank reissues it. Update the expiry date yourself at any time.

Charging later

Your system decides when to charge

Any provider

Charge, pre-authorize, capture, refund or void through any of 120+ integrations, with one API.

Backup providers

If a charge fails, we retry through your other accounts, in the order you set.

Insufficient funds

Charges declined for insufficient funds can be recovered through a partner service.

Typical uses

How travel platforms use it

Deposit, then the balance

Take a deposit when the guest books and the balance later, from the same token.

Charges after the booking

Changes, extras and no-show fees, charged to the card already on file.

Refunds

Refund to the original card through the provider that took the payment.
