  • Patent number: 11023886
    Abstract: The UNIVERSAL ELECTRONIC PAYMENT APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“UEP”) transform touchscreen inputs into a virtual wallet mobile application interface via UEP components into purchase transaction triggers and receipt notices. In one implementation the UEP provides, via a user device, a product information search request; and obtains, in response to the product information search request, information on a first product for sale by a first merchant and a second product for sale by a second merchant. The UEP generates a single purchase transaction request, using the information on the first product for sale by the first merchant and the second product for sale by the second merchant. The UEP provides, via the user device, the single purchase transaction request for payment processing. Also, the UEP obtains an electronic purchase receipt for the first product for sale by the first merchant and the second product for sale by the second merchant.

  • Patent number: 10607225
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for authentication using audio filtering. In some embodiments, an original audio segment such as a voice segment may be received. The received original audio segment may be modified using a first predetermined algorithm. The modified audio segment may be sent to an authentication server. At the authentication server, the modified audio segment may be reconstructed into the original audio segment using a second predetermined algorithm. The client device may be authenticated for a transaction based at least in part on the reconstructed original audio segment.

  • Patent number: 10552834
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to systems and methods for performing consumer authentication in a tokenized transaction. The token in the authentication request may be resolved to corresponding credentials before the consumer authentication process is initiated. As part of an authentication system, the merchant computer may include a merchant plug-in module as a proxy between the merchant computer and an issuer access control server. The merchant plug-in module may communicate with the issuer access control server by sending verification and authentication messages to the issuer access control server via a directory server. The token may be resolved to corresponding credentials before the authentication request reaches the issuer access computer for authentication. The merchant plug-in module, the directory server or a token router coupled to the issuer access control server may each be in communication with one or more token service providers to de-tokenize the token provided by the consumer's user device.

  • Publication number: 20140344155
    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing data retrieved and analyzed as part of an authentication process for a user device to other entities of a transaction system are disclosed. This data can be used by other entities of the transaction system to enable more secure authorization processes for transactions. A risk score generated for a payment application server computer and the data used to generate the risk score can be leveraged to provide an issuer with more detailed data to ensure that the user engaging in a transaction is authenticated and that transactions being processed by the issuer are not fraudulent.
