Visa, the global payments company, said on Tuesday it has created 100 million card-on-file tokens in India.

“This landmark has been achieved in line with RBI’s guidelines on CoF tokenisation, focusing on two key benefits--consumer & ecosystem security and an enhanced checkout experience,” said Visa, referring to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

The RBI last week extended the deadline for tokenisation to September 30 after which no entity in the card transaction / payment chain, other than the card issuers and/ or card networks, can store the CoF data, and any such data stored previously has to be purged.
