API Overview

The PayConex™ Account Updater API allows developers and merchants to update cardholder data via participating card issuers. This is particularly useful for keeping recurring transactions up-to-date with the most recent account information from the card issuers.

The API enables you to subscribe to PayConex™/ShieldConex® tokens or PAN Data so that they are continuously updated on a set schedule defined in the API request.

Our Account Updater API also lets you register a webhook URL. In this case, when a token (or set of tokens) that you're subscribed to is updated by the card issuer, a notification is sent to the registered webhook URL.

You can then use the information sent to the webhook to retrieve the updated card information.

The diagram below shows what a typical integration path might look like if you utilize the different features of the API.
