# Card tokenization overview

> Tokenize customer cards through Dintero so you can store them safely and charge them later for subscriptions, recurring billing, or one-click checkout.

To save a customer's card info, you can tokenize the card and store it for future use. To enable tokenization for your account, contact your account manager.

## Supported providers

This document uses Payex as a working example.
Please reference the api-specification to see all supported payment product types, and the operations that they support.

## Token types

Swedbank Pay uses two types of tokens:

* **payment\_token**
* **recurrence\_token**

while Bambora and Dintero PSP use payment token for all use cases:

* **payment\_token**

### Payment token

A payment token can be used to create payment where the card details will be
prefilled in the checkout. The payer still has to enter the `CVC` to complete
the purchase.

The payment token can also be used to perform unscheduled purchase without
involving the payer, also known as an merchant initiated transaction (MIT)

<Info>
  Performing MIT transactions require approval. Contact your account manager.
</Info>

For payment providers that don't support recurrence tokens, payment tokens can be used to create recurring payments.

### Recurrence token

A recurrence token can be used to create recurring payment where you can charge
a card without payer interaction. When an initial payment token is generated,
subsequent payments are made through server-to-server request
