Simplify your VISA ISO migration to Thales API
Thales’s cloud-based D1 platform streamlines tokenization and enables issuers to transition smoothly to APIs, keeping pace with new features such as Click to Pay while maintaining full compliance with future VTS (Visa Token Service) upgrades.
The countdown has begun
From November 1st, 2025, Visa stopped all updates to the VTS ISO-based connection. By November 2028, the ISO format will be fully decommissioned.
For tokenization issuers still using ISO, the message is clear: it’s time to plan your migration to API. Staying with ISO means being left behind:
- No new upgrades as digital wallets and payment schemes evolve
- Increasing risk of compliance gaps
In contrast, Visa’s API-driven world offers:
- Access to new value-added services – card tokenization, push-to-wallet, Click to Pay, passkey-based authentication and more
- Real-time provisioning of new features and upgrades
- Faster deployment of services
- Stronger fraud controls
