The new tokenization initiatives will result in multiple tokens for the same card number on different devices. This is in conflict with an important reason why merchants adopted tokenization initially.

How can the different tokenization standardization efforts including PCI, ANSI X9 and EMVCo provide compatibility across the life cycle of tokenized data?

Many merchants are currently utilizing proprietary tokenization systems and need to be able to map the different token schemes to enable analytics. Who can provide that mapping across different tokenization schemes?

Would an open standard for tokenization be a solution to this problem?

Could that also solve the urgent need for a tokenization standard for PII data?
