Abstract: A mobile merchant may have an entrance area which may have a geo-fence area which has a communication device to communicate with a payment device of a user when in or passing through the geo-fence area such as getting on a bus. The location of the start of the communication may be noted and stored as a first or starting location. When the user gets off the mobile merchant, the communication between the communication device and the payment device may end. The location of the end of the communication may also be noted and stored as a second or ending location. The first and second location and data from the payment device may be communicated to a billing computing device which may determine a price for the trip from the first location and the second location and the price may be applied to the payment account represented by the payment data.

Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method includes receiving a text phrase from a user and parsing the text phrase using a natural language parser to generate distinct words. A vector of values relating to the distinct words is generated and compared to vectors in a graph database which relate to learned communities of language. Based on the comparing, a most similar community in the learned communities of language is determined and an action set associated with the most similar community is queried. A response to the text phrase from the user is then generated based on the action set and provided to the user.

Abstract: An Internet-connected device, such as a car, refrigerator, or even a laptop can use a second device, such as a cell phone, to support cryptographic operations and communication with token service providers or other processing services requiring pre-provisioned capabilities that may include cryptographic secrets. By removing the need to store personally sensitive data in “Internet of Things” (IoT) devices, a user's personal information and other sensitive financial information may be contained to a relatively small number of devices. This may help prevent theft of goods or services by IoT devices that are not always under the close control of the user.

A system for processing a chargeback request associated with at least one online transaction associated with a user is also disclosed.

Abstract: A verification application executing at a user's mobile phone directs the user to take a photo of an identification document (e.g., driver's license or other form of government issued identification) or of their face. After the verification application sends the image to a backend service, the service may then dispatch a drone to the user's location and take a photograph of the user. The service may then validate the previously-imaged document or photo of the user's face against the photograph of the user and the geolocation sent with the first image. The service may then verify the new account and provision a token to the verification application to complete a secured account generation.

Abstract: The ELECTRONIC WALLET CHECKOUT PLATFORM APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“EWCP”) transform customer purchase requests triggering electronic wallet applications via EWCP components into electronic purchase confirmation and receipts. In one implementation, the EWCP receives a merchant payment request, and determines a payment protocol handler associated with the merchant payment request. The EWCP instantiates a wallet application via the payment protocol handler. The EWCP obtains a payment method selection via the wallet application, wherein the selected payment method is one of a credit card, a debit card, a gift card selected from an electronic wallet, and sends a transaction execution request for a transaction associated with the merchant payment request. Also, the EWCP receives a purchase response to the transaction execution request, and outputs purchase response information derived from the received purchase response.

Abstract: Described herein is a system in which an electronic record is stored within a distributed environment. In this system, a validation node may receive a transaction record from an acceptance node. The validation node may verify that the acceptance node is authorized 5 to participate in a blockchain network, identify a user associated with the transaction record, and append the transaction record to an electronic record. The transaction record may be associated with a digital signature formed by hashing multiple data elements, and then encrypting the hashed data elements using a private encryption key.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to issuing tokens for identifiers associated with a resource provider account specific to the resource provider issuing the account. A resource provider processor system interfaces with a resource provider computer to validate account eligibility upon receiving a token request message. If the account is eligible for token generation, the resource provider processor system generates a universal identifier corresponding to the identifier associated with the resource provider account and returns the universal identifier to the token requestor. The token requestor may send a token request message to a token issuer for obtaining a token using the universal identifier. Accordingly, the universal account identifier can be used to provision a token into a digital wallet. Transactions using the token may be processed with the resource provider processor system acting as an account issuer.

Abstract: A method includes broadcasting, by a node computer, a propose message comprising a new block for a blockchain to a plurality of node computers in a network shard. The node computer can receive at least one vote message from the plurality of node computers, the at least one vote message indicating verification of the new block. The node computer can, after a predetermined amount of time, receive a plurality of pre-commit messages comprising at least the new block and a block certificate created based on the at least one vote message. If the number of received pre-commit messages of the plurality of pre-commit messages is greater than a quorum value associated with the network shard, the node computer can commit the new block to the blockchain.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods, systems, and devices for replacing a token on a user device, such as a transaction card. The transaction card includes tokens representing an actual account identifier which is not visible on the transaction card. The transaction card may store a first token on a and include a digital display that displays a second token. When the first token or the second token is compromised, the compromised token is replaced without replacing the transaction card. When the second token is compromised, the compromised token is replaced with a new replacement second token using an electronic device. The replacement second token replaces the old second token on the digital display. After the second token is compromised and before the replacement second token is provisioned on the transaction card, the transaction card may still be used for transactions using other tokens provisioned on the card.

Abstract: A method for identifying subpopulations may include receiving interaction data associated with interactions from a population of individuals.
