PXP Financial, a leader in international acquisition, payment, fraud, and data analysis services, announced today that Mastercard, a global leader in technology, has accredited it as a Token Service Provider.

The Mastercard Digital Enablement Service (MDES), a single integrated platform that facilitates the digitalization of supported Mastercard card types for a variety of digital payment methods, is what made the new accreditation feasible. For merchants using Mastercard tokens, the MDES offers PXP Financial a Secure Card on File tokenization program, a better user experience, and greater approval rates.

PXP Financial is able to offer an extra degree of protection to its clients by utilizing Mastercard's Secure Card on File technology, which permits online and in-app purchases.

 

"In today's global marketplace, ensuring cardholders can enjoy peace of mind is paramount," stated Kamran Hedjri, CEO and founder of PXP Financial. We are aware that retailers are under pressure to address the increase in fraud while offering easy and convenient payment options that boost revenue and cultivate a loyal consumer base.

"At PXP Financial, we take extremely seriously the responsibility we have to help merchants navigate this landscape. We strive to keep our global clientele at the forefront of payments innovation while keeping a close eye on security. This dedication is shown in our shift to using scheme tokens.

 

"Mastercard has an industry-leading reputation for competence in payments, and it offers a highly secure, internationally scalable solution with significant speed to market. These attributes will help our merchants gain the trust that is so important in today's world. We are happy to declare our accreditation.

The MDES protects cardholders against identity theft by converting their most sensitive information into non-sensitive digital tokens. Experts estimate that a new identity theft case occurs every 22 seconds, and they expect this ratio to deteriorate this year.Instead of using the client's primary account number (PAN), which is kept in a token vault, these digital tokens are utilized for safe online and in-app purchases. Subsequently, digital tokens traverse the e-commerce platform securely, shielding any credit card information from disclosure. Tokens unique to each device offer an extra degree of protection.

Digital tokenization reduces risk and has several other advantages, such as helping to maintain PCI DSS compliance, increasing approval rates, and facilitating quicker, more effective transactions. Digital tokenization and encryption are comparable, but they are not the same. For instance, in digital tokenization, the sensitive data is never transferred outside of the originating organization.
