Systems and methods for substitute low-value tokens in secure network transactions
Methods and systems are disclosed for enabling the creation of substitute low-value token creation, comprising providing software content to a content delivery network wherein, when transmitted to a user browser, the software content is configured to enable the user browser to create a substitute low-value token if a token service is unavailable, wherein the content delivery network is configured to provide the software content to at least one user browser, and receiving the substitute low-value token from a merchant system, the substitute low-value token having been generated by the user browser in response to the user browser being unable to obtain a low-value token from the token service.
1. A computer-implemented method of generating a substitute low-value token, comprising:
receiving, by a user device, a first portion of software code from a content delivery network;
receiving, by a user browser of the user device, information associated with an electronic transaction;
determining, by the user browser of the user device, that a tokenization service is unavailable;
receiving, by the user device, a second portion of the software code from the content delivery network, based on determining that the tokenization service is unavailable;
generating, by the user browser of the user device, a substitute low-value token using the first portion of the software code and the second portion of the software code; and
transmitting, by the user browser of the user device, the substitute low-value token to a merchant system.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the substitute low-value token is transmitted with a request to authorize the electronic transaction.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the substitute low-value token comprises encrypted cardholder data.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the software code or the second portion of the software code comprises a public key.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second portion of the software code is provided to the user browser in response to the user browser being unable to obtain a low-value token.
6. A system for generating a substitute low-value token, the system comprising:
a data storage device storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform operations of:
receiving, by a user device, a first portion of software code from a content delivery network;
receiving, by a user browser of the user device, information associated with an electronic transaction;
determining, by the user browser of the user device, that a tokenization service is unavailable;
receiving, by the user device, a second portion of software code from the content delivery network, based on determining that the tokenization service is unavailable;
generating, by the user browser of the user device, the substitute low-value token using the first portion of the software code and the second portion of the software code; and
transmitting, by the user browser of the user device, the substitute low-value token to a merchant system.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the substitute low-value token is transmitted with a request to authorize the electronic transaction.
8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the substitute low-value token comprises encrypted cardholder data.
9. The system of claim 6 , wherein the first portion of the software code or the second portion of the software code comprises a public key.
10. The system of claim 6 , wherein the second portion of the software code is provided to the user browser in response to the user browser being unable to obtain a low-value token.
11. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations for generating a substitute low-value token, the operations comprising:
receiving, by a user device, a first portion of software code from a first content delivery network;
receiving, by a user browser of the user device, information associated with an electronic transaction;
determining, by the user browser of the user device, that a tokenization service is unavailable;
receiving, by the user device, a second portion of the software code from a second content delivery network, based on determining that the tokenization service is unavailable;
generating, by the user browser of the user device, the substitute low-value token using the first portion of the software code and the second portion of the software code; and
transmitting, by the user browser of the user device, the substitute low-value token to a merchant system.
12. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the substitute low-value token is transmitted with a request to authorize the electronic transaction.
13. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the substitute low-value token comprises encrypted cardholder data.
14. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the software content comprises a public key.
15. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the first portion of the software code or the second portion of the software code comprises a public key.
16. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the first content delivery network and the second content delivery network are the same entity.
17. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the first content delivery network and the second content delivery network are different entities.
18. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein at least one of the first content delivery network or the second content delivery network is a data security service operating in connection with a transaction processor.
19. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the tokenization service is provided by a transaction processor remote from the user device.
20. The computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the substitute low-value token transmitted to the merchant system is subsequently exchanged with a primary token.
