* Hello everyone and thanks so much in advance for your support,
* I am trying to extend a custom payment gateway using tokenization for woocommerce
but I am having a problem that may be too obvious but i’ve spent all afternoon
trying to figure out with no luck.
* So, I have developed a custom payment gateway fully funtional extending the WC_Payment_Gateway_CC
with:
* `$this->supports = array( 'default_credit_card_form');`
* To retrive the credit card information withing the class I use:
* ```
$_POST['{payment method id}-card-number'];
$_POST['{payment method id}-card-expiry'];
$_POST['{payment method id}-card-cvc'];
```
* I now want to extend it to use ‘tokenization’ so the first(and only) thing I
did was changing the “supports” line to:
* `$this->supports = array( 'default_credit_card_form', 'tokenization' );`
* After I did that suddently the credit card information is no longer in the $_POST
variable. The $_POST variable I get now is.
* `$[POST]:{"payment_method":"{payment method id}","wc-{payment method id}-payment-
token":"new","woocommerce_pay":"1","_wpnonce":"d1d883779d","_wp_http_referer":"\/
checkout\/order-pay\/77\/?pay_for_order=true&key=wc_order_5ae638306f334"}`
* Does anyone how how do I get the credit card information from the form when ‘
tokenization’ is supported?
* Thanks againg for your help. I’ve spent a few hours reading through documentation
and forums and have no idea what else to try.

* A quick update in case somebody else runs into an issue like this.
* So after looking closely to the form html code generated by ‘default_credit_card_form’
I realized that it changed after I added tokenization.
* When I added ‘tokenization’ every input field no longer has the ‘name’ atribute.
Here is an example with the Credit Card Number:
* Before adding ‘tokenization’
``
* After adding ‘tokenization’
``
* See how that last input element doesnt have a name atribute at the end.
* So at the end I had to use the `'woocommerce_credit_card_form_fields'` filter
to generate the forms and manually adding each name attribute to the form fields.
* After that everything seems to work just fine, but yet, I don’t know if that’s
what ‘tokenization’ is supposed to do or if I am doing something wrong.
* So any ideas are still very well appreciated. Thank you.

* This is beyond the level of support most people in the forums can offer, but
I’ll leave this thread open in case anyone wants to chime in.

* We haven’t heard back from anyone in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved–
if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
