DPay (Tokenization) Solution

The CLOWD9 DPay solution, provides you and your Cardholders with the functionality to tokenize a Virtual and/or Physical Primary Account Number (PAN) via the Schemes and *Wallet Providers, such as Apple Pay and Google Pay.

The PAN can be tokenized multiple times throughout its lifetime to support the following:

  • Multiple devices to be used for example, smart phone, smart watch
  • The device previously tokenised has been lost or stolen

Post succesful tokenization of a PAN:

  • The PAN becomes the Funding Primary Account Number (FPAN)
  • The digital token know as the DPAN is linked, also known as bound, to the FPAN
  • Transactions can be made via POS terminals similar to how a Physical card is used for Contactless payments

Tokenization is a easy to use solution supported by the Networks and Wallet providers whereby a Primary Account Number (PAN) is digitized with a proxy PAN, known as a Device Primary Account Number (DPAN).

Through each stage of the tokenization flow and lifecycle, there will be specific responsibilities for each party as follows:

You:

  • Regulated entity with the contractural relationship with the Cardholder
  • Provision of the mobile application
  • Management of the Cardholder authentication and outcomes (Yellow Path)
  • Relationship with the Wallet Providers, together with sending and receiving data. You may integrate with a third party to manage this
  • Submission of Marketing, Card Design and any other material required to be approved by the Network and Wallet Providers

Network:

  • Regulating the Tokenization solution between all parties
  • Issuance of specifications and mandates
  • Configuration of the BIN(s) to be tokenized
  • Interfaces between the Wallet Provide and CLOWD9

CLOWD9:

  • Ownership of the DPay solution
  • Ensuring compliance with the Payment Network mandates
  • Providing the platform to configure to support the tokenization through one or more Wallet providers.
  • CLOWD9 will not communicate directly to the Wallet providers
  • Development, delivery and ownership of the API interface between CLOWD9 and third party Token Requestor
  • Providing the DPAN liefcycle management via API and Vista
  • Providing Tokenization Event Messages to you
  • Authorization, Presentment Interchange & Fees Report (PIF) & Monthly Apple Pay reporting requirements
  • Display of DPAN information and transactional data via Vista

*A wallet provider, also known as a digital wallet or e-wallet, is a software-based system that stores payment information and passwords in one place.
