What Is Mobile Wallet Provisioning?
The traditional issuance of a physical credit or debit card costs time and money to generate and mail. This can put card providers and processors at a disadvantage. Instant digital issuance removes this detriment by creating a virtual version of the payment method that can be instantly provided to the cardholder.
Research has shown that nearly 70% of cards instantly issued are activated and used within the next five days. Because cards are generated on demand, you preserve spend momentum with existing customers. You also create a positive first impression with new customers. Instant digital issuance means you can increase customer growth, usage, and loyalty.
How Does Mobile Wallet Provisioning Work?
Tokenization, or the replacement of sensitive data with a token, is the backbone of push provisioning. A consumer can download an issuer's mobile application, tap or press a button, and “push” the token associated with the virtual card from the issuer's app into the digital wallet or service they want to associate the card with.
This requires no input of physical card information, eliminating user error. This process also creates a chain of trust that assures the issuer that the owner of the card has authorized the provisioning of their card.
Tokens can be pushed into a variety of participating token requestors, including merchants, digital wallets, or commerce platforms. Issuer apps can offer cardholders special incentives or exclusive offers for integrating with a particular service. Push provisioning also only requires a single point of integration to connect with token requestors; previously, card issuers needed to separately contract and integrate with Card on File merchants and Card Present wallets.
