Paytabs provides you with a collection of API endpoints which used to process all payments, regardless of if they are through either your own payment pages, the managed payment pages, or if you are using the hosted payment pages.
Tokenization is the process of protecting sensitive data by replacing it with an algorithmically generated number called a token. This can be used to allow returning customers to purchase without re-entering credit card details (recurring), such as monthly subscription fees. In this article, we will walk you through the way to delete/revoke a specific token.
