Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems, methods, and devices for processing payment transactions between a user and a merchant using a messaging bot. In particular, a commerce system allows the user to initiate a communications session with a messaging bot associated with the merchant using natural language. One or more embodiments use natural language processing to analyze messages from the user to the messaging bot, and from the messaging bot to the user, to identify a product and a request to purchase the identified product. Based on the identified product and the request to purchase the product, one or more embodiments initiate a payment transaction on behalf of the user based on a natural language conversation and without redirecting the user away from the communications session. Additionally, one or more implementations provide a payment initiation message from the messaging bot to the user indicating that the payment transaction was initiated.

Abstract: One or more embodiments of the disclosure include systems and methods that generate and utilize digital visual codes in electronic payment transactions. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods generate digital visual codes that embed information regarding a user account of a payor (i.e., a user account of the payor within a social networking system). In one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods display the digital visual codes via a payor computing device, scan the digital visual codes via a payee computing device, and send an identifier of the payor to the social networking system based on scanning the digital visual codes. The social networking system then utilizes the identifier to identify the payor, send and receive confirmation from the payor, and finalize the payment transaction between the payor and the payee.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and devices for device and system agnostic payment tokenization for processing payment transactions. In particular, the message system allows a user to initiate a payment transaction with a merchant. For example, one or more implementations involve identifying, in response to a request by a user client-device, a payment authorization number associated with a user account and sending a request for a payment token to a payment network associated with the payment authorization number. One or more embodiments receive a payment token representing the payment authorization number. Additionally, one or more embodiments encrypt the payment token and send the encrypted payment token to the user client-device to provide to a merchant system associated with the merchant.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and devices for enabling peer-to-peer loan transactions. In particular, the message system allows users of a social networking system to initiate peer-to-peer loan transactions. For example, one or more implementations involve recommending potential lenders likely to loan money to a user requesting a peer-to-peer loan transaction. One or more embodiments of the message system provide a loan request message to a potential lender. Additionally, one or more embodiments receive an acceptance of the requested loan transaction and initiate the loan transaction by transferring a loan amount from a payment credential of the potential lender to the user.
