  • Patent number: 11687897
    Abstract: An automatic-transaction-machine (ATM) has a processor that controls at least portions of some financial transactions conducted by the ATM. A banking computer system associated with the ATM is receives a pre-created transaction request from a customer using a mobile device. When the customer later brings the mobile device to the ATM, the ATM presents transaction-verification data to be received by the mobile device. The ATM is configured to receive mobile-verification data back from the mobile device that is responsive to the transaction-verification data. When the mobile-verification data is authenticated by the banking computer system the ATM is configured to execute the pre-created transaction request.

  • Publication number: 20190325512
    Abstract: In an example embodiment described herein, there is disclosed a method for using a distributed ledger (e.g., a blockchain) for tracking debt information. For example, debt data is created by a first financial institution responsive to a loan. The debt data is stored in a distributed ledger by the first financial institution with a first key that is associated with the first financial institution. Payment data is also stored in the distributed ledger encrypted by the first key. Upon transfer of the debt to a second financial institution, subsequent debt data is stored in the distributed ledger encrypted by a second key associated with the second financial institution.

  • Publication number: 20190236581
    Abstract: A method and system for linking transaction information provided prior to or upon arrival at the drive-through lane with a computing device in a drive-through is disclosed herein. A first input is received at a first computing device from second computing device of a user. The first input includes details of an exchange of a physical article and an account associated with the user. Subsequently, a second input is received by first computing device that includes the account and data associated with an exchange location. A third computing device is positioned along a drive-through lane at the exchange location. The first computing device communicates at least part of the first input to the third computing device in response to the receiving the second input. A physical article is exchanged with the user in response to the first input.

  • Publication number: 20170262823
    Abstract: An automatic-transaction-machine (ATM) has a housing covering at least a portion of the ATM, a transmitter, and a receiver. The processor controls at least portions of some financial transactions conducted by the ATM. A banking computer system associated with the ATM is receives a pre-created transaction request from a customer using a mobile device. The ATM will not process the pre-created transaction request until the customer is verified to be present at the ATM. When the customer later brings the mobile device within range of the transmitter of the ATM, the ATM presents transaction-verification data to be received by the mobile device. The receiver of the ATM is configured to receive mobile-verification data back from the mobile device that is responsive to the transaction-verification data. When the mobile-verification data is authenticated by the banking computer system the ATM is configured to execute the pre-created transaction request.
