Direct network tokenization service connecting to Visa, Mastercard, Amex, and Discover for higher authorization rates.
VGS Network Tokens provides direct integration with Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover to provision and manage network-issued tokens that replace primary account numbers in payment flows. Tokens are vaulted and lifecycle-managed by VGS, enabling merchants and fintechs to offer secure card-on-file, recurring, and digital wallet experiences with improved fraud protection and lower decline rates.
Compared with processor-provisioned tokens, the direct-to-network model improves authorization rates and reduces friction from expired or compromised PANs through automatic token updates. The service operates alongside VGS Vault and Card Management Platform, sharing the same zero-data architecture so PAN data never touches the customer's systems while still supporting e-commerce and omnichannel use cases.
