# Option A – activate without step-up authentication

If the issuer backend returns a green flag (`levelOfTrust=GREEN`), the TSP and token requestor proceed with token activation. No step-up authentication is required.

The TSH backend sends [`NotifyVirtualCardChange`](/classic-tokenization/api-reference/issuer-gateway-api/outbound-to-issuer.md) to the issuer backend when token activation completes.
