About digital wallet token transitions

As with other objects on the Marqeta platform, such as users and cards, digital wallet tokens can be independently transitioned between states. The two most common use cases for transitioning a digital wallet token are token activation (such as yellow flow activation) and token termination (if a user has reported to you that their device or account was lost or stolen, for example). Token activation is primarily handled automatically, but the ability to manually activate a token is a requirement of both Visa and Mastercard. You can meet this requirement through your own service applications using Marqeta’s APIs, or through the Marqeta Dashboard. Tokens can be activated through automatic mechanisms and can be terminated by the user directly on their phone or by “find my device” features. You will be notified through webhooks of these changes.
Warning
Wallet tokens will remain active unless explicitly terminated, even if the underlying card state is changed.
To view details and transitions for a digital wallet token:
1
Select the row for the token, or select View Details from the quick actions menu for that token.
2
In Details, you can see additional details about the request and the device, including why a token request might have been declined. You can also lock, terminate, or activate a digital wallet token on the Token details tab in lieu of the quick actions. The token details tab displays information about the digital wallet token in two sections: Token summary and Token details. The Token summary section provides the following information:
The Token details section provides the following information: To view transitions for the digital wallet token, select the Token transitions tab. The Token transitions tab displays a historical list of all transitions for the digital wallet token.
