New debit, and credit card rules kick in with Tokenisation

Changes have been made in the rules and regulations for online payment of debit and credit cards. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) card-on-file (CoF) tokenization norms came into force on 1 October 2022. RBI’s CoF token aims to improve the payment experience of cardholders.
The new rule issued by RBI says that neither businesses nor payment aggregators can save customer card details on their platform. Card details can only be saved by the card network or by the issuing banks.
Tokenization replaces sensitive card information with cryptographically generated random strings, including card numbers, and card expirations.
Once the card is tokenized, the generated card token can be used to process payments as a substitute for the card details.
The tokenized card eliminates the risk of losing sensitive card information.
