  • Patent number: 11775961
    Abstract: Ordering and purchasing processes are integrated into a messaging session between a user device and a merchant server. Within the messaging session, a dialogue is established between the user device and the merchant server. The merchant server obtains user information in order to communicate with a service provider to establish a transaction with an account associated with the user device. The merchant server obtains order information from the user device by interpretation of the dialogue, and creates an order. The user requests payment, and receives a payment link from the merchant server in order to make a transaction. The user provides payment information including identification of the account associated with the user device for the transaction to the merchant server. Once these actions have taken place, the merchant server uses the order information and the payment information to enable the transaction to be performed using the account.

  • Patent number: 11640602
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for creating a verified mutually authenticated transaction between a service provider and an on-line identity for a physical client person. A dynamic optical mark may be displayed on a device screen where the physical client person is using a web service. The dynamic optical mark may be recognized via scanning the dynamic optical mark by a personal mobile device equipped with a camera. The verified mutually authenticated transaction between the service provider and the on-line identity for the physical client person may be used for sharing personal data of the physical client person by using out-of-band optical mark recognition of the dynamic optical mark. The verified mutually authenticated transaction may be initiated with a time-limited one-time password comprising a sequence of numbers encoded in the dynamic optical mark.

  • Patent number: 11514437
    Abstract: A method for encapsulating transaction instrument information in a transaction includes storing, in association with a first transaction and by a processor of the primary transaction processor server, transaction data associated with a transaction instrument for a first transaction. The primary transaction processor server transmits the transaction data to a payment network processor, and receives an authorization package in response that includes a cryptograph and a first network token. The primary transaction processor server generates a second token that includes a changeable alpha-numeric string associated with the transaction instrument used in the first transaction, and transmits the second token to a merchant device. The second token indicates that a transaction associated with the second token is either i) a customer-initiated transaction or ii) a merchant-initiated transaction. The secondary transaction processor may approve or reject a transaction using the second token without a cryptogram.

  • Patent number: 11507950
    Abstract: Systems and methods for secure virtualized intermediated configuration and control of payment processing peripheral devices, as may be embodied in a SNIPP system, are provided. Such systems and methods enable the request of purchaser payment information from payment processing peripheral device(s) on behalf of a POS system and the aggregation and association of that purchaser payment information with a corresponding purchase transaction received from the POS system. The purchase transaction and the payment transaction are aggregated and thereby associated; and the resulting aggregated payment transaction is submitted to an electronic payments processing facility that responds with a confirmation indicating ‘acceptance’ or ‘denial’ of the payment transaction. The confirmation is relayed to the POS system and possibly to the payment processing peripheral device(s) such that it may be displayed to the purchaser and/or an attendant.
