Storing Customer Credentials with a CIT and
TMS

Before you can perform a merchant-initiated transaction (MIT) or a customer-initiated transaction (CIT) with credentials-on-file (COF), you must get the customer's consent to store their payment credentials. This is also known as establishing a relationship with the customer. After you have their consent, you can store their payment credentials for later use.

Creating a
TMS
 Token

When sending the initial CIT, you can create a
TMS
 token to store the customer's credentials for the subsequent MITs. To create a
TMS
 token, include the
processingInformation.actionTokenTypes
 field in the authorization request. Set the field to one of these values based on the
TMS
 token type you want to create:
Customer
Customer tokens store one or more customer payment instrument tokens and shipping address tokens.
Including a customer token in subsequent MITs eliminates the need to include billing information, card information, and the previous transaction's ID.
"processingInformation": {
    "actionTokenTypes": [
      "customer"
]
Payment Instrument
Payment instrument tokens store an instrument identifier token, card information, and billing information. Payment instruments are not linked to a customer token. Including a payment instrument in subsequent MITs eliminates the need to include billing information, card information, and the previous transaction's ID.
"processingInformation": {
    "actionTokenTypes": [
      "paymentInstrument"
]
Instrument Identifier
Instrument identifier tokens store a PAN. Including an instrument identifier in subsequent MITs eliminates the need to include a PAN and the previous transaction's ID.
"processingInformation": {
    "actionTokenTypes": [
      "instrumentIdentifier"
]
Instrument Identifier, Payment Instrument, and Customer Identifier
You can also create multiple
TMS
 token types in the same authorization. This example includes an instrument identifier, a payment instrument, and a customer token in the same authorization:
 "processingInformation": {
    "actionTokenTypes": [
        "instrumentIdentifier",
        "paymentInstrument",
        "customer"
]
