  • Publication number: 20240104596
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for providing an account holder with an incentive-consent matrix at a point-of-sale device of a merchant. The account holder can provide consent to store transaction related data and obtain an incentive in exchange. The incentive can be a coupon or other offering associated with the merchant.

  • Patent number: 11928701
    Abstract: Technologies for enhancing credit transactions include a point of sale computing system. The point of sale computing system receives payment vehicle data for a credit transaction associated with a purchase event. The point of sale computing system determines whether the credit transaction is an alternate routing candidate. The point of sale computing system routes an authorization request message to an issuer computing system via a payment card network in response to a determination that the credit transaction is not an alternate routing candidate. Alternatively, the point of sale computing system routes the authorization request message directly to the issuer computing system via a PIN debit network in response to a determination that the credit transaction is an alternate routing candidate. A corresponding authorization response message is received by the point of sale computing system via the payment card network or the PIN debit network. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20230013799
    Abstract: Technologies for determining spending behavior of a consumer in a category of interest are disclosed. The spending behavior is based on tracking payment vehicle transactions across a number of merchants. Temporal and geographic parameters are considered to determine if a payment vehicle transaction falls within the category of interest. Based on the payment vehicle transactions and the temporal and geographic parameters, Share of Wallet (SOW) can be determined.

  • Publication number: 20220198521
    Abstract: Systems and methods for applying a promotion to a payment transaction originating at a point of sale system of a merchant are described. Transactional information is provided to an acquirer computing system of the merchant. Based on identifying indicia associated with the transactional information, the acquirer computing system determines whether to modify the payment transaction messaging before communicating it along to an issuer computing system.

  • Publication number: 20220020048
    Abstract: Technologies for enhancing payment transactions include an acquirer computing system. The acquirer computing system receives a payment authorization request message for a payment transaction associated with a purchase event and event-specific data corresponding to the purchase event. An offer identification query is transmitted to a promotion management computing system via an out-of-band communications channel. Offer redemption instructions corresponding to a matched offer are received from the promotion management computing system via the out-of-band communications channel. Based on the redemption value of the matched offer, a net transaction amount for the purchase event is determined. The payment authorization request message is modified based on the determined net transaction amount. The modified payment authorization request message is transmitted to an issuer computing system via an in-band communications channel.
