Alkali vapor cell quantum memories offer a simple platform for a plethora of applications in quantum information technologies. In this context, the efficient and low-noise storage of quantum tokens for authentication purposes remains an outstanding challenge. Inspired by a proposal for quantum money [1,2], we develop a quantum-token protocol based on a time-bin encoding, and use the memory system presented in [3] as a test platform for secure storage of the quantum token. This constitutes an important first step towards the realisation of authentification tokens secured by quantum mechanics.
