Abstract: A computer-implemented communications device in communication with a transaction gateway server during a point of sale transaction. A computation server configured for intercepting a first transaction instantiated by the communications device, the first transaction having a first numerical value; the computation server instead of processing the first transaction processing: a second transaction having a second numerical value greater than the first numerical value, and a third transaction having a third numerical value determined based on a numerical difference between the first numerical value and the second numerical value.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to the field of creating and distributing investment funds, and more particularly to systems and methods for creating excess funds from consumer transactions and distributing those funds into one or more investment accounts. Preferred embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for selecting transactions in a user's spending account to be rounded-up to the nearest dollar, creating a supplemental charge once the aggregation of those round-ups reach a specified minimum, and providing a closed system where the aggregated micro-charges may be converted into investments for long-term savings and growth.

Abstract: The field of the invention relates to systems and methods for facilitating investments through interactive online gaming. In one embodiment, an interactive electronic gaming system includes a game server for hosting a Web application game, accessible over a data network. One or more client communication devices are configured to access the game server. An index fund server is accessible over said data network for maintaining electronic investment portfolios. The game server is configured to intercept any electronic payment transactions over a payment gateway server through the Web application game from one or more client devices and redirect the intercepted transaction to the index fund server.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system comprising one or more processors for executing logic code for receiving transaction data to process a first transaction from a plurality of transactions is provided. The transaction data may include at least one of a transaction descriptor or a transaction value associated with the first transaction. The transaction data is filtered by applying a filtering parameter to at least one of the transaction descriptor or the transaction value. Application of a round up process to the first transaction is prevented based on the filtering, in response to the determining that the first transaction is not conducive to the round up process, thereby preventing an error state in execution of logic code by at least one processor configured for applying the round up process to the first transaction.

Abstract: The field of the invention relates to systems and methods for controlling investment funds, and more particularly to systems and methods for real-time projections based on consumer transactions. In one embodiment, an investment fund management system may include a consumer communication device configured to create a payment gateway with a Point of Sales (POS) terminal. The system further includes a portfolio server accessible over a data network. The consumer communication device is configured to execute a process including the steps of intercepting a transaction through the payment gateway; computing an expected return based on the investment of a transaction amount from said transaction; and providing the expected return to the consumer communication device.
