Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for recovering and reporting account devices associated with payment accounts, for example, when the devices have been compromised. One exemplary method includes receiving a request to report recovery of a compromised account device, causing an interface to be displayed to a recovering entity of the device, and populating data fields in the interface based on an identifier of the device included in the request. The method also includes receiving a submission comprising responses to the data fields, by the recovering entity, and receiving an image of the device in an unusable form. The method then further includes storing the submission and image to a data structure, as proof that the device has been recovered. The method may then include notifying an issuer, associated with the device, of the recovery, so that the issuer can access the information related thereto and update its records accordingly.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, a payment system authorization platform may receive an electronic payment transaction authorization request for an online purchase using a payment account, wherein the payment transaction authorization request includes delivery information. The payment system authorization platform may then automatically analyze data associated with the payment transaction authorization request, including the delivery information, in accordance with a fraud detection model to generate an authorization result. The payment system authorization platform may then transmit a response to the payment transaction authorization request including the authorization result.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automatically blocking an ineligible fraud-related chargeback from chargeback processing over a network is provided. The method is implemented using a chargeback blocking (CB) computing device. The method includes determining, by the CB computing device, that a first fraud-related chargeback is a triggering fraud-related chargeback based at least in part on stored triggering rules. The method further includes determining if a second fraud-related chargeback is ineligible by applying the triggering rules. The method also includes blocking the second fraud-related chargeback from being transmitted over the network if the second fraud-related chargeback is determined to be ineligible.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide apparatuses and methods for providing a graphical user interface on the display device, where the graphical user interface includes a graph viewing tool for charting data. The graph viewing tool includes: (a) a first display area displaying a first axis and a second axis of a graph, the first axis representing a first parameter of the data over a first range of values; (b) a second display area displaying a third axis representing the first parameter over a second range of values; and (c) a first tool and a second tool displayed in the second display area proximate the third axis, wherein the first tool and the second tool are configured such that they can be moved relative to each other and relative to the third axis to increase or decrease the first range of values displayed along the first axis in the first display area.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided having a processor configured to generate a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface having: (a) one or more rectangular base icons of a first size, (b) a grid where the cells of the grid are of the first size, and (c) one or more content fields having a size that is a multiple of the first size and being aligned with the grid. The apparatus further includes a communication interface configured to communicate the graphical user interface to a user terminal for display on the user terminal. The graphical user interface is further configured such that the user can move the one or more base icons and the one or more content fields to other locations within the grid provided that the one or more base icons and one or more content fields are aligned with the grid at the other locations.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide an apparatus and method for customizing a bank card. For example, the apparatus includes a communication interface and a processor operatively coupled to the communication interface. The communication interface is configured to interact with a user terminal and receive user input from the user terminal, the user input including at least one user-selected bank card option. The processor is configured to provide, via the communication interface, a graphical user interface to be displayed on a display of the user terminal. The graphical user interface includes an image of the bank card having the at least one user-selected bank card option and showing the user's name on the image of the bank card.

Abstract: Embodiment of the invention provide tools that take a person's financial data (accumulated from one or multiple sources and financial institutions) and determines which transactions are regular and which are ad hoc and then projects future cash flow. In one embodiment, the tool is configured to use this projected cash flow data to make automatic recommendations on how the user can save money in the future based on known offers and/or transactions made by others.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide apparatuses and methods for allowing a user to compare his or her financial data to the financial data of a hypothetical peer person. For example, an apparatus is provided including: (a) a communication interface configured to communicate with a user terminal, wherein the communication interface is configured to receive user input from the user terminal; and (b) a processor configured to compare a user's finances with finances of an average member of a select group of people, the comparison based at least partially on the received user input, wherein the communication interface is configured to provide the user terminal with a visual comparison of the user's finances with the finances of an average member of the select group of people.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide an apparatus having processor configured to: (a) provide a user with access to the user's financial account via a graphical user interface; (b) determine user preferences based at least partially on the user's financial information; and (c) provide non-financial content to the user via the graphical user interface and based at least partially on the user preferences. In one embodiment, the processor is configured to determine user preferences by determining trends in the user's financial information. In one embodiment, the processor is configured to determine user preferences by distinguishing between user financial transactions that are regular and user financial transactions that are ad hoc.
