Manage Payment Instrument Tokens {#tms-manage-pi-tkn}
=====================================================

This section contains information on managing payment instrument tokens.  
A payment instrument represents a means of payment and a payment instrument token stores this information using an instrument identifier token. It does not store the card number and cannot exist without an associated instrument identifier. It can include an instrument identifier, expiration date, billing address, and card type.  
You can create, retrieve, update, or delete an instrument identifier by submitting an HTTP POST, `GET`, `PATCH`, or `DELETE` operation to the `tms/v1/paymentinstruments` endpoint. Use the `TMS` REST API payment instrument endpoint to:
