Requiring Authorization Or Authentication Patents (Class 705/44)
  • Patent number: 11704653
    Abstract: Embodiments provide methods, and server systems for enhancing online payment transaction experience. A method includes receiving, by a server system associated with a payment network, a tokenization request based on selecting a payment card of a plurality of payment cards of a user from a payment application running on a user device for processing an online payment transaction using the selected payment card at a merchant payment interface on the user device. The tokenization request includes a card information of the selected payment card. The method includes facilitating generation of a digital token. The digital token includes a tokenized card information of the selected payment card. The method includes provisioning the digital token in a floating widget at the merchant payment interface on the user device. The floating widget enables the user to enter the digital token at the merchant payment interface for processing the online payment transaction.

  • Patent number: 11704659
    Abstract: The present disclosure is related to a field of payment transactions using a card that discloses a computer-implemented method and a system for restricting a transaction while using a payment card. A card processing server may receive card details, a transaction amount, a flag, and signature data of the payment card from a remote terminal upon initiating a transaction using the payment card. Further, the card processing server validates the payment card based on the card details and the signature data of the payment card and thereafter determines a value associated with the flag upon successful validation. The value associated with the flag indicates one of two conditions, e.g., a true condition and a false condition. Based on the condition indicated by the flag, the card processing server performs one of a first action and a second action related to either processing or declining the transaction.

  • Patent number: 11687931
    Abstract: A method of facilitating a transaction with a payment card of a cardholder. The method includes receiving a deceptive PIN comprising a set of characters in which one character is a deceptive character. The deceptive character is different than each of a set of actual characters of an actual PIN of the payment card. The method includes identifying the deceptive character and a position of the deceptive character among the set of characters of the deceptive PIN. The method includes determining a reconstructed PIN by replacing the deceptive character with a corresponding actual character at the position in the deceptive PIN. The actual character is determined based on a predefined mathematical expression and a predefined value for the predefined mathematical expression. The method includes authenticating the reconstructed PIN by matching the reconstructed PIN with the actual PIN. The method further includes facilitating the transaction upon successful authentication.

  • Patent number: 11671514
    Abstract: The concept of a service layer message template is introduced, which may be a request template or a response template. Message templates may be created and stored at the service layer. Each message template may contain a set of request or response parameters and their values. Once in place, an application can send a request to the service layer that does not include the request parameters contained in the message template (i.e. request template); instead, a message template identifier may be sent. Since request parameters are included in the message template and stored at the service layer, communication overhead between the service layer and the application (or another service layer) may be reduced.

  • Patent number: 11640609
    Abstract: Disclosed is an example approach in which network and non-network features are used to train a predictive machine learning model that is implemented to predict financial crime and fraud. Graphical network features may be generated by applying financial entity risk vectors to a network model with representations of various types of networks. The network model may comprise transactional, non-social, and/or social networks, with edges corresponding to linkages that may be weighted according to various characteristics (such as frequency, amount, type, recency, etc.). The graphical network features may be fed to the predictive model to generate a likelihood and/or prediction with respect to a financial crime. A perceptible alert is generated on one or more computing devices if a financial crime is predicted or deemed sufficiently likely. The alert may identify a subset of the set of financial entities involved in the financial crime and present graphical representations of networks and linkages.

  • Patent number: 11620641
    Abstract: A system may identify a purchase transaction request from a merchant application and generate an in-app payment cryptogram for the purchase transaction request based on a limited use payment credential (LUPC). The in-app payment cryptogram may be provided to the merchant application. The merchant application may transmit the in-app payment cryptogram to a merchant computing device. A request may be received from a payment network to update the LUPC. A security library may be executed to determine that the client device is secure. The execution of the security library may generate a device attestation response, and the device attestation response is transmitted to the payment network. An updated LUPC may be received from the payment network.

  • Patent number: 11615370
    Abstract: With respect to a package delivery system configured to optimize efficiencies associated with package delivery, a server computing device may monitor locations and conditions associated with a fleet of vehicles. A vehicle including a first delivery person may be dispatched with packages for delivery. The server computing device may provide updated delivery routes based on traffic and/or other conditions in the environment. At the completion of a work shift associated with the first delivery person, the vehicle may be parked at a location proximate the delivery route. The server computing device may dispatch a second delivery person to the location. Based on an indication that the second delivery person is proximate the vehicle, the server computing device may cause a user interface to surface on a computing device of the second delivery person, enabling the second delivery person to unlock the vehicle and continue delivering the packages.

  • Patent number: 11615412
    Abstract: Systems, devices, methods, instructions, and other implementations are described for network data management. One embodiment involves request data received at a device associated with a digital lockbox, where the request data includes identifying information for an originating device associated with a location and is associated with a user device. A unique token is generated with the identifying information. The unique token can be used to tokenize a network link to create a secure one-time link. The system transmits the one-time link, which can then be used to facilitate secure communications between a computing system associated with the originating device and the user device.

  • Patent number: 11617084
    Abstract: When a user attempts to execute a procedure for transfer or the like from an app, user authentication is first required by a PIN code or the like. When the user authentication is successful, function limitation of an IC chip is released and a mode in which a function provided by the IC chip can be used is set. The app encrypts a procedure message describing procedure content with a private key using the function of the IC chip and creates electronic signature. The electronic signature and the procedure message are transmitted to a server of an online service via an intermediate server. The server executes a procedure of transfer or the like in accordance with the content of the procedure message.

  • Patent number: 11605071
    Abstract: An Autonomous Exchange via Entrusted Ledger (AXEL) blockchain enables users to perform transactions in private while enabling the transaction records thereof to be verified by other network users without publicly divulging the contents or details of the transaction records. Internal addressing provides for separation of control within the wallet by making a portion of the wallet inaccessible to the blockchain, allowing increased security for tokens being managed by the wallet. The ability to configure restrictions placed on sending and receiving wallet addresses, and to create multiple public keys, provide further security measures.
