Register a Pismo-issued card with the Protection Bulletin. This feature is available for Elo, Mastercard and Visa.

The Protection Bulletin is used before a transaction takes place in cases where the issuer is temporarily offline and unable to authorize or decline a transaction. In a process known as stand-in, the card network authorizes or declines the transaction to avoid creating problems for the cardholder and merchant, based on how the card was added to the Protection Bulletin. Once the issuer is back online, the card network lets them know what was authorized or declined while they were down.

You can add a card to the Protection Bulletin with this endpoint or setting a card rule so that when a card's status changes to a rule's configured status, the card is automatically added to the Protection Bulletin.

For more information, refer to Protection Bulletin.

Note: This endpoint takes an account token - an access token encoded with a Pismo account ID. Tokens can expire quickly, which can result in a 401 Unauthorized message.
