  • Patent number: 11935002
    Abstract: The system and methods described herein allow users to apply for a purchase of a good from multiple providers using provider specific methodologies for generating offers for the product. For example, the system described herein may include a multi-layer architecture that includes interactive micro-services that communicate together in a bi-directional manner to create a normalized process for the purchase of a good, such as commercial goods/products (e.g. a vehicle) or real property. The micro-services may assess prequalification for a loan or financing for a good, followed by determining eligibility of the good for financing, and further followed by calculating pricing details for loans (e.g. for financing purchase of the good) that would be offered for a consumer's particular financial credentials, for each of a plurality of lenders. Prequalification and pricing may be performed on a good by good basis, or for a plurality of goods near or substantially simultaneously.

  • Patent number: 11915332
    Abstract: A system and process for management of liabilities is disclosed. The embodiments mitigate variance in the assessment of liability values. In an exemplary embodiment, a liability may be created under rules stored in the form of an digital token. The rules may form a smart contract wherein the terms within the contract change automatically based on criteria being met. The token associated with the smart contract may have tangible value that can appreciate/depreciate and may thus be a tradeable asset or commodity. The inventory of liabilities associated with an issuer may thus be tracked and value precisely assessed.

  • Patent number: 11887037
    Abstract: Generating and applying a prediction model based on blockchain data is disclosed. Based on blockchain data related to historical invoices, a prediction model is generated using machine learning. The prediction model is used to generate a recommendation for a particular entity to obtain a target funding amount by a target funding date. The prediction model is applied to the particular entity's outstanding invoices. Based on blockchain data related to the outstanding invoices, the prediction model determines a predicted cost that the particular entity would incur in obtaining funding, by the target funding date, using each outstanding invoice. A funding type to be used for each invoice is also identified. Invoices are selected based on the predicted costs. An interface presents the recommendation to use the selected invoices to obtain the target funding amount by the target funding date.

  • Patent number: 11769152
    Abstract: The disclosure herein describes enabling authentication of a user's identity based on a user identification (ID) token. An enrollment request is received by an identity platform from a computing device of the user. The enrollment request includes face data and payment account data associated with a payment account of the user. A face identification template of the user is generated based on the face data. Based on verifying the user's identity using data in the enrollment request, an ID token is generated including the face identification template and the payment account data. The ID token is then provided to the computing device of the user, wherein the computing device is enabled to verify the user's identity based on comparison of the captured image data of the face of the user to the face identification template of the ID token during transactions associated with the computing device.

  • Patent number: 11687948
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for adjusting decision reliability scores (e.g., weights) in weighted consensus algorithms for blockchains include accessing broadcast events in a blockchain, where the broadcast events correspond to a historic period of time. A broadcast decision provided by a participant in the blockchain for each of the broadcast events may be identified. A consensus decision for each of the broadcast events may be identified where the consensus decision indicates whether there is a consensus among participants in the blockchain that a corresponding broadcast event should be added as a new node to the blockchain. A success rate may be calculated for the participant based the identified broadcast decision provided by the participant for each of the broadcast events and the identified consensus decision for each of the broadcast events. Based on the success rate, the decision reliability score for the participant may be increased, decreased, or maintained.

  • Patent number: 11676153
    Abstract: The disclosure herein describes management of transaction blocking schemes via a user interface. A transaction blocking scheme is receiving via the user interface from a user, including transaction blocking rules. The transaction blocking rules are applied to transaction data associated with the user. Transaction blocking scheme performance data is generated based on the application of the transaction blocking rules to the transaction data, including a quantity of transactions of the transaction data that are blocked by the transaction blocking rules. A visualization of the transaction blocking scheme performance data is displayed via the user interface and the user is prompted to provide a response based on the displayed visualization. Based on the response to the prompt, the transaction blocking scheme is activated for application to incoming transactions, whereby the transaction blocking rules are applied to incoming transactions to determine whether to block the incoming transactions.

  • Patent number: 11657398
    Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating authentication for payment transactions using pattern-based time bound passwords. More specifically, techniques disclosed herein enable authentication of payment transactions performed by a user at a merchant terminal based on a pre-registered pattern provided by the user within a pre-defined time period limit. The pre-registered pattern drawn in the pre-defined time period is registered as a password for authenticating any payment transaction performed by the user using a payment card which is associated with an account of the user in an issuing bank. If the user provides the pre-registered pattern within the pre-defined time period limit, the payment transaction is authenticated. In another embodiment, such pattern-based time bound password is used as a second level authentication in which first level authentication is performed by a personal identification number.

  • Patent number: 11651357
    Abstract: Embodiments implement multifactor authentication without a user footprint. An application programming interface call from a client application can be received that includes a messaging identifier. A transaction identifier can be transmitted to the client application and stored. Using a shared secret, a temporary password can be generated, where the shared secret can be associated with the transaction identifier and can be stored. The temporary password can be transmitted to the messaging identifier. A second application programming interface call can be received that includes a reference transaction identifier and input, where a user provides the input to the client application. The user can be authenticated when the reference transaction identifier matches a transaction identifier stored and the input matches an expected password that is based on a stored shared secret associated with the matching stored transaction identifier.
