Patent number: 12175450Abstract: An ultra-wideband (UWB)-enabled payment acceptance system can include a UWB anchor and a terminal device. The UWB anchor identifies UWB-enabled devices within a vicinity; and in response to receiving an indication of an intent to perform a payment transaction from a particular UWB-enabled device, the UWB anchor establishes a secure communication channel with the particular UWB-enabled device. The terminal device, via the UWB anchor, communicates transaction related information over the secure communication channel to the particular UWB-enabled device and receives a transaction payload from the particular UWB-enabled device over the secure communication channel. A UWB-enabled device includes a processor, storage, a battery, and a UWB chip. Instructions can be stored in the storage of the UWB-enabled device that when executed by the processor direct the UWB-enabled device to perform various processes supporting frictionless transactions, such as with respect to the UWB-enabled payment acceptance system.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2023Date of Patent: December 24, 2024Assignee: MASTERCARD INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATEDInventors: Charles Sangwon Lee, Charl Frederik Botes, Gabriel Beltramino, Danielle Jean Eininger

Patent number: 11232421Abstract: A method for shopping from a social media site using a direct buy link comprises electronically storing a plurality of account profiles and receiving a data message electronically transmitted via a communication network. The method may query a social media database for an account profile associated with the consumer identifier and the PIN. The method may display a plurality of direct buy links associated with a plurality of products for purchase, wherein at least one of the direct buy links is a modified direct buy link. The method may receive a data message electronically transmitted via the communication network and display the modified direct buy link comprising the personal data corresponding to the product, a purchase data, and payment preference information. The method may transmit confirmation of payment and the modified direct buy link associated with the purchased product to the consumer device.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2016Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: MASTERCARD INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATEDInventors: Pia Maenpaa, Danielle Jean Eininger, Matthew Harris, Heather L.
