"Interswitch Group, a leading African integrated payments and digital commerce company, is at the forefront of pioneering tokenization infrastructure and enablement, supporting multiple banks, financial institutions and card schemes as they bring tokenized payments to merchants and customers in Nigeria and across key African markets, including Kenya and Uganda. Tokenization, which is more popularly described as ‘tap-to-pay’ replaces sensitive payment details, such as a card number, with a substitute code, or token, for use in a transaction."
