Patent number: 10607217Abstract: Systems, devices, apparatuses, and methods for providing tokenization as a service are provided. Embodiments of the invention involve decoupling “tokenization service” from other services offered by a merchant service provider, and offering the tokenization service as a stand alone service. In accordance with an embodiment, a merchant service provider can receive payment data associated with a transaction between a consumer and a first entity. The merchant service provider can generate a payment token that represents the payment data and transmit a copy of the payment token to the first entity. The first entity can then transmit the payment token and order information to a second entity specified in the transaction. The merchant service provider can subsequently receive a request to complete the transaction from the second entity. The request can include the copy of the payment token from the second entity.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2017Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Lisa Anderson, Seamus Cushley

Patent number: 10510073Abstract: 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: August 8, 2014Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignee: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Erick Wong, Kiushan Pirzadeh, Oleg Makhotin, Glenn Powell, Igor Karpenko, John Sheets, Frederick Liu

Patent number: 10445964Abstract: Secure and auditable consolidation of results of an electoral process, in which local electoral authorities participate to validate local electoral results by generating a validation proof, which is communicated to a consolidation module that verifies that the validation proof has been generated by the appropriate electoral authorities and then generates a receiving proof, which contains the result of the validation, which could be the acceptance or non-acceptance of the validation proof. The receiving proof is finally sent to the electoral authorities. There are different ways of generating the validation and receiving proofs so as to be able to robustly verify the identity of the local electoral authorities who have participated in the validation of the electoral results and to verify if the validated local electoral results are the same that are going to be consolidated and to preserve integrity of the official records of the local electoral results.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2010Date of Patent: October 15, 2019Assignee: Sctyl Secure Electronic Voting, SAInventors: Pere Vallès Fontanals, Jordi Puiggalí Allepuz, Victor Morales Rocha
