Patent number: 10643205Abstract: A system and method for processing lending transactions that may facilitate prompt transfer of funds (for example, loan funds) to an individual in a secure manner. An adaptive payment server may receive first identification information, second identification information, and a request for a fund transfer. The adaptive payment server may determine an account associated with the first identification information. The adaptive payment server may authenticate identification of the account based on the second identification information. The adaptive payment server may initiate a deposit of a fund amount associated with the request into the identified account, wherein the fund amount is deposited substantially immediately after the identified account has been authenticated.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2013Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: MTS Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Shashi Kapur, Ralph A. Bianco

Publication number: 20190095902Abstract: A system and method for securing and processing payment transactions of varying payment transaction types via mobile devices is provided. An adaptive payment server can accept requests from a mobile device to process different types of payment transactions via various types of payment devices (for example, credit cards, debit cards, EBT cards, or other payment cards). Credit card transactions, debit card transactions, EBT cash benefits transactions, and/or EBT food stamps transactions can be processed based on identification information retrieved from a corresponding reader device, coupled to the mobile device, and configured to encrypt identification information directly detected by and/or received from the mobile device.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 21, 2018Publication date: March 28, 2019Inventors: Shashi KAPUR, Ralph A.

Patent number: 10049357Abstract: A system and method for using a Personal Identification Number (“PIN”) to authenticate payment transactions via a mobile device coupled to a reader device is described. The reader device may be modified to not only read and encrypt first identification information from a payment medium such as a magnetic strip of a payment card, but also receive a PIN from the mobile device and encrypt the PIN. The mobile device may be configured to prompt for and receive the PIN. The PIN may be communicated to the reader device for encryption. The mobile device may receive the encrypted first identification information and encrypted PIN and communicate the encrypted data to an adaptive payment server that decrypts the encrypted data for processing the payment transaction. The system may be used to securely process PIN-based payment transactions using a mobile device that is communicably coupled to a reader device.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2015Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Assignee: MTS Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Shashi Kapur, Ralph A.

Publication number: 20150134539Abstract: A system and method for processing POS payment transactions via mobile devices is described. Encrypted first identification information is received from a merchant mobile device. Encrypted second identification information is received from a cardholder mobile device. A determination is made regarding whether the encrypted first identification information and the encrypted second identification information are associated with one another. In response to a determination that the determination that the encrypted first identification information and the encrypted second identification information are associated with one another, the encrypted first identification information and the encrypted second identification information are decrypted. The POS payment transaction is processed based on the decrypted first and second identification information.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 12, 2013Publication date: May 14, 2015Inventor: Shashi Kapur
