  • Publication number: 20240320652
    Abstract: A reader device may include a midrange wireless transceiver, a controller coupled to the midrange wireless transceiver, and a memory coupled to the controller. The memory may store executable code, which when executed by the controller, causes the reader device to implement various operations including maintaining a transaction service attributes database in the memory. The operations may also include broadcasting a beacon including a transaction service indicator at a periodic interval using the midrange wireless transceiver, receiving a connection request from a communication device, and establishing a wireless connection with the communication device. The operations may further include performing an application selection process with the communication device, performing application data processing with the communication device, and performing authorization request processing for the communication device.

  • Patent number: 11640592
    Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus is provided for integrating multiple payment options on a merchant webpage. The method includes receiving, from a merchant system associated with a merchant webpage, a payment data capture request, generating, with at least one processor, web payment capture data based on the payment data capture request, the web payment capture data configured to adapt the merchant webpage to receive payment information input by a user, communicating, to the merchant system, the web payment capture data, receiving, directly from a client computer via at least one client-side script executed by the client computer based on the web payment capture data, the payment information input by the user, generating, with at least one processor, a transient payment token based on the payment information, and directly communicating the transient payment token to the client computer.

  • Publication number: 20220267358
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a new series of compounds exhibiting high fluorescence quantum yields in the solid state. In one embodiment, the compounds include a series of 2,3,4,5-tetraphenylgermoles with the same or different 1,1-substituents. In another embodiment, substituted germafluorenes, germa-fluoresceins/rhodamines, and germapins are described. These germanium heterocycles possess ideal photophysical and thermostability properties, which makes them excellent candidates for chemical or biological sensors, host materials for electroluminescent devices and solar cells, and emissive and/or electron-transport layer components in organic light emitting diode devices.
