Request for the gateway to store payment instrument (e.g. credit or debit cards, gift cards, ACH bank account details) against a token, where the system generates the token id.
Note: The behaviour of this call depends on two aspects of your token repository configuration: Token Generation Strategy (either Merchant-Supplied, Random or Preserve 6.4) and Token Management strategy (Unique Card or Unique Token). For more information, see How to Configure Tokenization. Your Token Generation Strategy and Token Management Strategy are configured on your merchant profile (by your payment service provider).If you are configured to use the Token Generation Strategy Random or Preserve 6.4', you can use this call to create the token. If you use the Token Generation Strategy Merchant-Supplied, do not use this call but use the Tokenize call instead.Typically, this call will return a new token. However, if the repository is configured for the Token Management Strategy Unique Card Number and the supplied card number has previously been stored against an existing token, the gateway will return that token.URL | https://ap-gateway.mastercard.com/api/rest/version/30/merchant/{merchantId}/token |
