Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for managing tokens from different token providers and facilitating network transactions involving tokens from the different token providers. One exemplary method includes receiving a request to provision a token for a payment account to a party, where the payment account is associated with a payment network. The method also includes generating the requested token apart from the payment network, whereby the requested token is an external token, and transmitting the external token to the party. The method further includes transmitting, to the payment network, the external token and a PAN for the payment account associated with the external token, thereby permitting the payment network to map the token to the PAN and to provide PAN-dependent services for a transaction based on an authorization request message including the token but not the PAN.
