Global network tokenised transactions are forecast to more than double from 283 billion in 2025 to 574 billion in 2029, according to new research by Juniper Research. This is a testament to the emerging reliance on digital payments and the increasing centrality of network tokenisation in providing security for transactions. Let’s find out more about how it influences business and why white label solution is the easiest way to implement this technology.
Tokenisation in Digital Payments
Tokenisation schemes replace sensitive card details with unique tokens issued by different card networks. Network tokenisation shifts the liability from the merchant to the issuer by engaging the issuing bank early in the process of transaction authorisation. This greatly improves authorisation rates by bringing the issuer in early in the process, hence bringing card-not-present transaction approval closer to card-present ones.
As digital fraud is growing, the adoption of network tokenisation is becoming one of the most important measures in fraud prevention. Securing sensitive card details throughout a transaction’s lifecycle can massively reduce the overall rate of e-commerce fraud.
A Growing Need for Merchants and Payment Processors
By January 2026, Visa has promised more rigorous fraud thresholds worldwide, in which merchants are to lower fraud rates or face fines otherwise. While CNP fraud is threatening much more than card-present transactions, such solutions will be of utmost importance.
TSPs have to be more innovative in the services offered, enabling, for example, real-time analytics tools on transactions, allowing a better reaction by the merchants with respect to fraud. Apple’s decision to open up Near Field Communication functionality on iPhones to third-party developers also creates new opportunities for TSPs to lift their offerings. There will also be strategic partnerships with a new generation of digital wallets, which will enable TSPs to deploy network tokenisation and go toe-to-toe with Apple Pay.
Implementation of Tokenisation
Partnering with the white label solutions will be the easiest and efficient way for businesses to implement network tokenisation and other advanced features easily and seamlessly. A fully customisable all-in-one payment infrastructure lets each business set up secure transactions without having to create solutions from scratch.
A white-label payment gateway can reinforce security, smoothen the transaction process, and provide consumers with a seamless, trusted digital payment experience.
This is further evidenced by the rapid growth in network tokenised transactions, underpinning further the need for efficient and secure means of processing these transactions for businesses. Via white-label payment gateways, merchants and payment processors will be able to support these new fraud prevention standards while continuing to provide a seamless and secure transaction experience for their consumers.
