eCommerce credential on file transactions

Credential on file transactions occur when a cardholder gives express permission to the merchant to store their payment credentials for use on a future purchase.

The cardholder-initiated stored credential transaction (COF) provides better visibility between the merchant and cardholder. This transaction category introduces Scheduled and unscheduled COF transaction types. These types of transactions also update card brand rules, including merchant disclosure requirements.

The stored credential transaction category covers all COF transactions, including:

  • Industry-specific (delayed, no-show, incremental).
  • Recurring billing and installment payments.
  • Cardholder-initiated stored credential transaction that does not occur on a fixed schedule.

Recurring billing makes use of COF and allows merchants to offer a recurring billing service to customers.

note

While credential on file integrations are not third party processor specific, if a merchant changes third party processor with already established credentials on file, it is advised that the merchant re-establish those credentials on file with the new third party processor.

eCommerce credential on file transactions are indicated by Fields 0723, 0738, 0739, 0305, 0047, position 5, and 0054.
