With Marqeta’s instant issuance feature, you can create virtual cards and automatically push them to digital wallets like Apple Pay or Google Wallet. Instant issuance requires an integration with the digital wallet provider as well as with Marqeta. Marqeta provides a Tokenization Implementation guide that shows how your iOS and Android mobile apps interact with the Marqeta platform to implement digital wallet push provisioning capabilities. You must complete the requirements for Apple Pay or Google Wallet to access the Tokenization Implementation guide.
Note
Due to card network and digital wallet provider limitations, you can only test your tokenization implementation in your production environment. No tokenization support is available for sandbox environments.

Apple Pay and Google Wallet

To integrate your app with digital wallets on Apple Pay-compatible and on Google Wallet-compatible devices and begin the process of implementing instant issuance, contact your Marqeta representative who will work on your behalf with Apple and the card network to obtain:
  • Tokenization enablement at the card network
  • Apple in-app provisioning entitlement
  • Google in-app provisioning entitlement
After these requirements are met, Marqeta grants your team access to documentation to help guide the integration and implementation of instant issuance for Apple Pay and Google Wallet.
