Abstract: A network operator intermediates a cashless transaction by sending a payment device issuer an outbound clearing data file enriched with cleansed merchant data. Issuers that choose to participate in the merchant data cleansing service will be provided with the cleansed, and optionally augmented, merchant information. Providing this data to the issuer could be used to help reduce costs associated with “do not recognize” calls by cardholders, disputed charges, and charge-backs. With cleansed data provided in the clearing record, a device holder would be given access to this cleansed information about the merchant where a transaction took place through their statement. The present disclosure also provides for augmenting the clearing record data to include merchant-specific add-on and/or aggregate data not presently included in the transaction clearing record, yet useful to the issuer both in form and content.

Abstract: An operator of a payment network obtains transaction data from a plurality of entities which make payments with the payment network. The operator of the payment network also obtains a plurality of consents from the plurality of entities which make payments with the payment network. The plurality of consents authorize the operator of the payment network to share at least a portion of the transaction data from the plurality of entities which make payments with the payment network with an operator of a social media site. At least portion of the transaction data is made available to the operator of the social media site.

Abstract: Methods and systems for interface data utilization are described. In one embodiment, a provider server may offer resources and an application server may offer functionality not provided by the resources of the provider server. A user request may be received through the source user interface. A determination may be made whether the user request contains a request to access a functionality that is not offered by the provider but is offered by an application that is communicatively coupled to the provider via a network. In response, an electronic communication may be established between the provider and the application via a network. A policy of the provider may be accessed from a first database, and interface definition data may be accessed from a second database different from the first database. Target interface data may be rendered based on the policy of the provider and the interface definition data.

Abstract: Methods and system for interface data utilization are described. In one embodiment, source interface data may be provided from a provider. The source interface data may be capable of being used to provide a source user interface for a networked resource associated with the provider. A user request may be received through the source user interface. A service call may be provided over a network to an application based on the receiving of the user request. The application may be associated with an application manager. Response data may be received over the network from the application based on the service call. Target interface data may be rendered based on the response data. The target interface data may be provided from the provider.

Abstract: Methods and system for processing transfer requests are described. In one embodiment, a value transfer request may be received from a value provider through a network. The value transfer request may include a value amount to be provided from a source user to a target user. A settlement account of the value provider may be reduced by the value amount. A target account of the target user may be increased by the value amount.

Abstract: Methods and systems for payments with virtual value are described. In one embodiment, a virtual value indication associated with a user from a virtual value provider may be received. Virtual value may be associated with a user account in response to receiving the virtual value indication. A payment request may be received. A portion of the virtual value associated with the account may be converted to a base value of a base value type at a conversion rate in response to the receiving of the payment request. The payment request may be processed for the account using the base value. Additional methods and systems are disclosed.

Abstract: Methods and system for transaction processing are described. In one embodiment, a plurality of default parameters may be configured for value transfer. A transfer request including a transfer amount and a user account identifier may be received. One or more of the plurality of default parameters may be selected. The transfer request may be processed in the transfer amount based on the user account identifier and the one or more selected default parameters.

A target account of the target user may be increased by the value amount.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a payment application framework. In an example embodiment, a request at a payment facilitator is received. The request is for a split payment to a plurality of receiving parties. The request is processed to establish one or more payment transactions. A single transfer of funds is sent from an account of a sender to at least one account of a receiving party of the plurality of receiving parties.
