Patent number: 11410167Abstract: A system includes a first module that asynchronously communicates with a second module. The first module processes a set of digital transactions and transmits instructions for the second module to process the same set of digital transactions. The first module maintains a first aggregated hash value corresponding to the set of digital transactions that have been processed. The first aggregated has value is calculated using a commutative and associative hash function. The second module maintains a second aggregated hash value corresponding to a second set of digital transactions processed by the second module. The first and second aggregated hash values are compared to determine the second module processed the same digital transactions as the first module.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2019Date of Patent: August 9, 2022Assignee: PayPal, Inc.Inventor: Niladri Chatterjee

Patent number: 11392939Abstract: Embodiments are described that are directed to optimizing the provisioning of payment account credentials to mobile devices utilizing mobile wallets. In some embodiments, one of multiple provisioning schemes may be selectively chosen for payment account credential provisioning based upon a determined risk involved with a particular provisioning request. A low risk provisioning request leads to an immediate provisioning of a payment credential, whereas a provisioning request of high risk results in the provisioning request being denied. In some embodiments, medium risk provisioning requests will cause an additional user authentication to be performed before the payment account provisioning is finalized. The additional user authentication may occur using a separate communication channel than the channel in which the provisioning request was received.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: VISA INTERNATIONAL SERVICE ASSOCIATIONInventors: Erick Wong, Kiushan Pirzadeh, Oleg Makhotin, Glenn Powell, Igor Karpenko, John Sheets, Frederick Liu
