Note: Account Updater is only available for Network Token transactions. It does not apply to PAN-based transactions or non-tokenised flows.
Account Updater detects when a card has been updated by the issuer (for example, due to reissuance or replacement) and ensures transactions can continue without interruption.
This allows for:
- Accurate detection of account update events.
- Correct reporting and downstream billing.
- Stored card details are aligned with the latest issuer-provided data.
How Account Updater Works
- When a Network Token transaction is processed, Judopay evaluates whether the underlying card details have changed due to the card reissuance or replacement.
- If an update is detected, the Network Token is refreshed with the latest card information provided by the network.
- The transaction continues uninterrupted using the updated card details, without any action required from the merchant or consumer.
