Abstract: A system receives account access information from a user. The account is then accessed using the received access information. Data is harvested from a web page associated with the account or received from another financial data source. The user's ability to access the account is authenticated based on the obtained information.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include an electronic transaction service network (also referred to herein as a centralized electronic transaction (CET) service). According to an embodiment, a financial management system hosts multiple CET web sites on behalf of multiple merchants. All transactions through any CET web site are executed and managed by the financial management system. Merchants may customize their web sites to include a branded look and feel. The merchant web sites are part of a CET service for which a customer can register. Registered customers can then view and pay invoices from any merchants having CET web sites, whether purchases were made online or offline. Customers specify preferences for the CET service including choosing existing customer accounts from which the financial management system is to pay invoices on behalf of the customer. This eliminates the need for the customer to open and fund a separate payment account as in traditional methods.

Abstract: A management system identifies an account holder and identifies multiple financial accounts associated with the account holder. The multiple financial accounts are associated with at least two different financial institutions. The multiple financial accounts are then authenticated. The management system aggregates financial transaction data associated with the multiple financial accounts and displays the aggregated financial transaction data.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system for providing a financial management system to facilitate the transfer of funds among accounts held at different financial institutions and over different networks are described. The system performs a transaction involving a withdrawal of assets from a first account at a first financial institution and a deposit of at least a portion of the withdrawn assets to a second account at a second financial institution. The account user can select between real-time transactions and standard transactions. Real-time transactions are executed over an ATM network coupling the first financial institution and the second financial institution, and standard transactions are executed over an ACH network coupling the first financial institution and the second financial institution.

Abstract: Described herein is a multi-product-multi-channel payment platform system and apparatus that extends the capability of current online banking/funds-transfer systems. Different types of financial accounts are modeled in a financial management system to enable types of online, electronic funds transfer transaction that were not previously possible. Among novel elements of the system and apparatus disclosed is the enablement of real-time application of rules to different types of financial accounts and/or products across channels, such as how much money may be deposited or withdrawn in a period of time.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include an electronic transaction service network (also referred to herein as a centralized electronic transaction (CET) service). In another embodiment, a financial management system hosts a “central payment hub” version of the CET service. The central payment hub is an industrial utility in that multiple financial institutions all participate in a central service that can be offered to their respective customers. All of the customers (both individuals and small businesses) of the various institutions come to one consolidated payment hub. For example a Bank of America invoice can come into the payment hub, and a Wells Fargo invoice can come into the payment hub. The payment hub is a shared utility across multiple financial institutions. The payment hub features a single registration at the payment hub across all of the participating financial institutions.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system for providing an integrated financial system to facilitate the transfer of funds among accounts held at different financial institutions and over different networks are described. The system executes a transaction involving a withdrawal of assets from a first account at a first financial institution and a deposit of at least a portion of the withdrawn assets to a second account at a second financial institution. The first account and the second account are maintained by different corporate entities, and may have the same or different account holders. The financial institutions are coupled to one another through different types of networks. The transaction is broken down into separate debit and credit legs.
