🔐 Tokenization isn't just security, it's intelligence.For Brice van de Walle, Executive Vice President of Core Payments Europe at Mastercard, the future of fraud prevention lies in tokens that are uniquely bound to specific merchants and use cases.No more stolen card data being reused. No more fraudulent transactions across multiple merchants. Just secure, merchant-specific tokens that work where they're meant to, and nowhere else. 🛡️Capture a token from your ride-sharing app? Try using it elsewhere. It won't work. That's the power of tokenization. ✨A smarter approach to payments. A safer experience for everyone. That's what next-gen fraud prevention looks like. 💳Listen to the full podcast now- https://premade.outgrow.us/interview-with-Brice-van-de-Walle?utm_campaign=podcast&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_source=linkedin#Tokenization #PaymentSecurity #FraudPrevention #Fintech #DigitalPayments #CyberSecurity #PaymentInnovation #SecureCheckout #Mastercard
