Tokenization can make card info less inviting to crooks
PaymentsSource PayThink
It is hard not to become desensitized to the almost daily news of data breaches. Identity theft is appealing to fraudsters, but the endgame is nearly always financial gain, so lifting payments data is a far more direct path to a payoff.
