Indicates whether a card has been stored externally to our system,
and if it has been used previously.
Used for the situation where you have previously used and stored the card outside
our system. This will override the value sent to the card networks, (e.g. Visa/Mastercard)
on the first time the card is used within our systems.
If your systems don't ever store card details this field should be ignored.
When sent to us this affects the first time the tokenized card is used within our systems.
In the case of a card that you never want tokenized with us, but is tokenized externally,
we will require the correct value on every call.
This is related to Credential on file mandate compliance.
- UNUSED - The card has not been previously used in a transaction,
this is used as a hint to the networks that the card will be stored from
this point onward.
- USED - The card has been previously used in a transaction on your systems,
this lets the networks know that this is a previously stored card.
Usage Notes:
- Not sending a value for this implies that you have not stored the card for reuse
within your systems.
- If your company never stores cards for reuse then there is no need to ever send
a value for this field.
- This field is optional but MUST be filled when using a previously/externally stored card.
