Patent number: 12388816Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to enable a user to conduct a transaction using their credentials stored on a secure server computer (e.g., a computer associated with a partner such as another merchant) by merely presenting their authentication data at a physical location via an auxiliary device. An auxiliary device may be provided for interfacing with a partner's backend server (e.g., the secure server computer). In some embodiments, biometric authentication may provide a mechanism for a true seamless and potentially frictionless (in the case of modalities that do not require physical contact) interaction. Payment can occur without any need for a card, phone, wearable, or any other user device as long as the auxiliary device is able to recognize the user and retrieve a credential that can be linked to that user.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2024Date of Patent: August 12, 2025Assignee: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Kyle Joseph Drechsler, Christopher Jones, Gayathri Venkat, Gavin Shenker, Raul Leyva, Janardana Sarma, Phillip Lavender, Leila Movahedian, Pinesh Roy, Eduardo Lopez

Publication number: 20250039167Abstract: A method includes receiving, by a universal authentication application from a resource provider computer, a user credential verification request message comprising a user identifier, server computer data, and interaction data for an interaction. The universal authentication application transmits the user credential verification request message to a browser that invokes the authenticator to verify biometric information of a user. The universal authentication application receives a user credential verification response message from the authenticator. The user credential verification response message includes signed interaction data. The universal authentication application sends the user credential verification response message to the resource provider computer. The resource provider computer provides at least the signed interaction data to a plurality of server computers to retrieve a plurality of portable device credentials respectively associated with the plurality of server computers.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Applicant: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Jalpesh Chitalia, Gavin Shenker, Manoj Kannembath, Amit Gupta
