Pay using Tokens


Token Pay is HCE based NFC payment solution which supports online and offline transaction as a NFC POS device. It enables all card types - from branched to co-branched to private label to debit cards.

It is based in Visa and Master Card Cloud based contactless specification. It uses an Alternate PAN or Token instead of the original PAN. The solution can be integrated into any existing Wallet platform.




There are two components to the solution :


  • Mobile Payment Application (MPA) on the mobile device and is a combination of UI and HCE SDk
  • Cloud based server component secured by HSM for storing, provisioning, handling cards, keys, transaction processing, fraud protection and crypto validation.

The MPA is supproted for all Android enabled phones upwards of version kitkat 4.4.

How does it work ?


After initialization and activation process, customer scans his/her card, enters expiry date and adds the card into the Android phone. The card data gets validated at the Issuer end and the server component requests Visa/MC who are the Token Issuers for tokens against this card. 3 to 5 tokens are issued by the CMS component in the server and pushed into the phone securely.

When the customer taps his phone against the NFC reader, APDU commands are exchanged between the phone and the reader. Token details are passed on to the POS and the ISO packet is made and sent to the Acquirer. When the transaction data reaches the VISA/MC network it sends it to the Cloud server which de tokenizes and authorizes the transaction based on original card number. This platform enables payment transaction to happen in an online mode also since 3-5 tokens are stored inside the mobile device. The tokens get replenished when the customer comes online in a Internet zone again.

Payment Gateway



Tarang offers its Payment Gateway and Merchant On boarding platform for online businesses which want to accept Check out Page transactions. The PG also supports API based transactions and Mobile Payments.

The Merchant On-boarding is a web based portal which helps quick and easy on-boarding of merchants. They can choose what payment transactions they want to support and based on their volumes the transaction fees and commissions get configured.

The portal allows the Aggregator to configure the switches they support and the set of transactions. The portal has an excellent dashboard where the Bank and Merchant can see all their daily transaction as well as search for a specific period range. The portal has Reporting facility and the export of data to PDF or Excel file.

The Payment Gateway has some basic fraud checks built in the Gateway. An extensive range of fraud checks can be done through the Fraud Management System which is optional. The PG owner can offer Fraud Management to merchants who opt for it and pay for the same. Transaction velocity, geography checks can be configured at the level of an individual merchant or global level across all merchants.

Intelligent Transaction Router


One of the challenges for Aggregators is how to expand and grow their business by adding new merchants. Merchant terminals are tightly coupled to the switch and it is impossible to switch transactions to a switch which offers a lower rate or better performance.

The second challenge is when the Aggregator wants to move a new batch of terminals to their switch. The tight coupling of the terminal to the switch does not allow for easy migration. The third challenge is that the data format that comes in from the terminal side and the format required for the switch will keep varying.

These problems are solved by our Smart Router. The Smart Router is a Middleware component that comes between the POS device and the switch. The Smart Router is intelligent and through its Configurator automatically picks up the incoming transaction data, passes it and then re-formats it based on which switch it is being sent to.

The Smart Router has algorithms to decide which switch offers better rates and accordingly channelizes the transaction to that switch.
