Abstract: Described is an Automated Teller Machine (ATM), and related systems (and methods), that allows for applications (or “Apps”) to be accessed on the ATM. The system allows for a third-party application to be verified and installed on ATMs to provide users with additional services. The application may access peripherals of the ATM via an Application Programming Interface (API) provided as part of a Software Development Kit (SDK). Accordingly, the system may provide a secure mechanism for ATM providers to provide users with the benefits of accessing third-party applications. Moreover, these applications may leverage specialized ATM peripherals and provide functionality that may not otherwise be available on other types of devices.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system, and apparatus for managing investment savings of individuals through an investment vehicle suitable for retirement, estate or general investment planning. The invention establishes the mechanics of the operations to create an open-end investment fund as a means for individual participants to earn both market returns on their investments and demographic returns (DR) on the actual demographic experience of the pool of investors who participate in the investment fund. Individuals can invest in the fund and make additional deposits and withdrawals at any time. Investors specify a payout schedule, and those who sell their investments, as scheduled, earn full returns, combining market returns and the DR. Investors who make unscheduled withdrawals from the fund, receive lower returns. The investment fund is customized, and administered by computer software that is available to both participants in the fund and to asset managers who offer the fund to investors.

Abstract: A method and system support payments between two entities using a mobile device and a token identifier device. A payment or gratuity action is initiated by a payer using their mobile device, such as mobile communication handset, to scan a token identifier stored in the payee's token identifier device. In one example, the token identifier device is an RFID or NFC type device. After the token identifier is obtained, the mobile device communicates the TokenID, gratuity amount, and payer authentication information to a transaction management system that validates and attempts to transfer funds between the two entities. In one example, the transaction management system is a server system that communicates over a TCP/IP network. The transaction management system sends a communication to the mobile device indicating whether or not the transfer was successful.

The cash forecast module generates a cash forecast based on the cash position and one or more cash streams, each cash flow stream configured to represent a cash flow for one aspect of the company and each cash flow stream comprising zero or one or more factors, each factor configured to affect an associated cash flow stream in the future. A cash forecast may include zero or more levers.

Abstract: A deep-learning neural network can be trained to model a probability distribution of the asset-price trends for a future time period using a training data set, which can include asset-price trends of a plurality of assets over a past time period and a latent vector sampled from a prior distribution associated with the asset-price trends of a plurality of assets. The training data set can represent a time series data. A portfolio optimization can be executed on the modeled probability distribution to estimate expected risks and returns for different portfolio diversification options.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for an automated system for analyzing damage to process claims and pre-claim consultations associated with an insured item, such as a vehicle. An enhanced claims processing server may analyze damage associated with the insured item using photos/video transmitted to the server from a user device (e.g., a mobile device). The mobile device may receive feedback from the server regarding the acceptability of submitted photos/video, and if the server determines that any of the submitted photos/video is unacceptable, the mobile device may capture additional photos/video until all of the data are deemed acceptable. In addition, the server may interface with third party entities such as repair shops and may generate a payment for compensating a claimant for repair of the insured item.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a system that provides enhanced security of information transmitted by connected devices. The system may be used to request resources from members of a donee's virtual group. Donated funds or line of credit may be loaded to the donee's digital wallet with no link to any of the donee's personal accounts. The request for resources may utilize secure correspondence between the donee and the prospective donors. The secure correspondence may be locked and prevented from being forwarded or captured via a screenshot to ensure confidentiality. If an attempt is made to forward or copy the secure correspondence, the secure correspondence may be deleted. Donated funds/line of credit may be allocated for specific use, and may not be owned by the donee until used.

Abstract: A system and method are disclosed, to distinguish fraudulent transactions from a legitimate transaction, predicated on the notion that the card is considered likely to be in state of fraud. The disclosed system and method can be activated as soon as an account has suspicious activity that causes a high score for potential fraud, but before a bank either can or needs to confirm fraud. The system or method is able to pinpoint the actual fraudulent transactions inside a window of potential fraudulent activity, using a specialized model referred to as the pinpoint model.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for facilitating shared mobile payments. According to an embodiment, a user can initiate a purchase using a mobile device. The mobile device can display a total price for the purchase. The first user can cooperate with one or more second users to share the cost of the purchase. The cooperation can be facilitated via the first and second users' mobile devices.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for an automated system for analyzing damage to process claims associated with an insured item, such as a vehicle. An enhanced claims processing server may analyze damage associated with the insured item using photos/video transmitted to the server from a user device (e.g., a mobile device). The enhanced claims processing server may submit a signal that locks one or more portions of an application on the mobile device used to submit the photos/videos. The mobile device may receive feedback from the server regarding the acceptability of submitted photos/video. The photos may further be annotated using, for example, a touch screen display. An estimate, such as a cost estimate, may be determined for the damage associated with the insured item based on the photos and/or annotations.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses described herein relate to a method for delivering cash to a user. The method includes receiving a cash delivery request from a first user device of the user. The method includes generating a cash authentication code (CAC) for the cash delivery request to be verified by a cash dispenser machine. The method may include transmitting the cash delivery request and the CAC to a second user device of a driver. The method may include determining a route for the driver from a first location of the driver, to a second location of a cash dispenser machine, and to a third location of the customer to deliver the cash delivery request. The method may include instructing the cash dispenser machine to dispense cash in response to authenticating the second user device based on the CAC and determining that the first current location is at the second location.
