Publication number: 20250371633Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for facilitating electronic transactions between transmitting bank entity and a receiving bank entity made by a user. The method involves receiving payment details from a user through a user interface and initiating a transaction request using these payment details by the transmitting bank entity. The transaction request is then transmitted to a receiving bank entity, which processes the request to determine transaction approval based on the provided payment details. The receiving bank entity subsequently sends a transaction response to the transmitting bank entity, indicating approval or denial of the transaction request, back to the transaction processing system. Finally, the user is notified of the transaction response via the user interface. Disclosed embodiments optimize and streamline the electronic transaction process, ensuring efficient and secure handling of payment details and transaction requests between bank entities.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 27, 2025Publication date: December 4, 2025Inventor: Ashley COOK
