  • Publication number: 20250061441
    Abstract: In some examples, an account is provisioned onto an electronic device. In some examples, the device receives a value to fund the account provisioned on the electronic device. In some examples, the electronic device transacts with a contactless transaction terminal using the provisioned account and displays an indication of the transaction. In some examples, the electronic device transmits information corresponding to the provisioned account without checking for authentication. In some examples, the device receives user input initiating a process for moving the account from a first device to a second device. In some examples, the device receives account payment credentials from a second device when a set of payment criteria are met.

  • Publication number: 20240037533
    Abstract: A device implementing an express credential transaction system includes at least one processor configured to receive an indication that a payment applet for a service provider has been provisioned on a secure element of the device with a first attribute indicating that the payment applet can be utilized for a transaction without authentication associated with the transaction. The processor is configured to set the first attribute of the payment applet to indicate that authentication is required to utilize the payment applet when another payment applet for the service provider provisioned on the secure element of the device has an attribute that indicates the other payment applet can be utilized for the transaction without user authentication. The at least one processor is configured to control whether the user authentication is requested when utilizing the payment applet or the other payment applet, respectively, in transactions.

  • Publication number: 20210295282
    Abstract: To facilitate conducting a financial transaction via wireless communication between an electronic device and another electronic device, the electronic device determines a unique transaction identifier for the financial transaction based on financial-account information communicated to the other electronic device. The financial-account information specifies a financial account that is used to pay for the financial transaction. Moreover, the unique transaction identifier may be capable of being independently computed by one or more other entities associated with the financial transaction (such as a counterparty in the financial transaction or a payment network that processes payment for the financial transaction) based on the financial-account information communicated by the portable electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20180349881
    Abstract: A device implementing split transactions in a peer transaction system may include at least one processor configured to receive a request to transfer a transaction amount from a first account associated with a first user to a second account associated with a second user and determine that an available amount of the first account is less than the transaction amount. The at least one processor may be further configured to receive an indication of an other transaction resource and a portion of the transaction amount to be transferred from the other transaction resource and to obtain the portion of the transaction amount via the other transaction resource and a remaining portion of the transaction amount from the first account and transfer a combined amount into the second account that includes the portion of the transaction amount and the remaining portion of the transaction amount.
