  • Publication number: 20250014039
    Abstract: Example embodiments of systems, methods, and computer-accessible mediums for identity verification and transaction authentication are provided. An exemplary system can comprise an application, a user device, and a server. The application can prompt a removal of a card chip, prompt an insertion of the card chip into the user device, determine an orientation of the card chip after the insertion of the card chip into the user device, and transmit, to the card chip, a first message. The card chip can encrypt the first message via one or more authentication protocols to generate an encrypted first message, transmit, to the server, the encrypted first message. The server can decrypt the encrypted first message, verify the decrypted first message, and transmit a second message to the application, wherein the application is configured to display a verification notification in response to the second message.

  • Publication number: 20250015637
    Abstract: A contactless card with power harvesting unit is described. The power harvesting unit is configured to harvest power from near field communication radio wave fields and supply power to a memory, processor, and communication circuit of the contactless card. In some embodiments, the contactless card may also include a capacitor for smoothing out power deliver or a rechargeable battery. The contactless card is configured to establish two-way communication with a secondary device and to store and execute applets. In some embodiments, the contactless card is a payment card which contains information associated with a primary profile and a secondary profile. The secondary profile may be activated using two-way communication if the primary profile is deactivated due to fraudulent activity.

  • Patent number: 12182797
    Abstract: In a method for broadcasting account provisioning information, user datum encryption information is transmitted to a plurality of account processing systems. A request to share account provisioning information is received from a user device associated with an account holder. A user datum of the account holder is encrypted using the encryption information and transmitted to the account processing systems. A response is received from at least one of the account processing systems, the response including an indication that the account holder has a transaction account processed by that account processing system. A request for confirmation that the account provisioning information should be shared is sent to the user device and a confirmation response is received from the user device that includes permission to share account provisioning information. Account provisioning information is then transmitted to one or more of the account processing systems.

  • Patent number: 12175447
    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for secure generation of one-time passcodes using a contactless card. In one example, an operating system (OS) of a device may receive a uniform resource locator (URL) and a cryptogram from a contactless card. The OS may launch an application associated with the URL. The application may transmit the cryptogram to an authentication server. The application may receive a decryption result from the authentication server indicating the authentication server decrypted the cryptogram. Based on the decryption result, the application may request an OTP. The processor may receive an OTP from an OTP generator. The application may receive an input value and compare the input value to a copy of the OTP. The application may determine that the comparison results in a match, and display, based on the determination that the comparison results in the match, one or more attributes of the account.

  • Publication number: 20240419827
    Abstract: A method and related system may analyze metadata associated with a first set of transactions to determine whether to perform a second set of transactions. The method and related system may include determining a data category based on first device-provided data of a first database transaction indicating a first record associated with a second record, and may further include obtaining, based on whether the data category satisfies a first set of criteria, an identifier and an amount based on image data using a prediction model. The method may further include querying a database based on the identifier to obtain an indication that the identifier is mapped to an object category, validating the amount based on a result indicating whether the object category satisfies a second set of criteria, and causing a second transaction that changes fields of the first and second records.

  • Publication number: 20240421855
    Abstract: A network-enabled smart apparatus has a data processing systen, at least one operational system, wide area and local network communication interfaces, and a memory. The memory has stored therein apparatus identification information, at least one service application, and an activation application. The activation application causes the data processing system to establish an internet connection and create an NFC-enabled web page. The data processing system transmits, to the user device instructions to navigate to the NFC-enabled web page and instructions for the user to tap an NFC-enabled smart card to the user device. The apparatus data processing system reads, via the NFC-enabled web page, NFC information transmitted to the user device by the smart transaction card. The application causes the apparatus to transmit the NFC information to a service administration server, and receive, from the service administration server, a service activation command.

  • Publication number: 20240414173
    Abstract: Systems and methods for verified messaging through the interaction involving a short-range transceiver, such as a contactless card, a client device and a server are presented. Verified messaging may be provided in the context of using a client device to receive a user identifier from the user's short-range transceiver, such as a contactless card, and sending a messaging request with the user identifier to a server, which may look up client device information and compare with data about the client device accompanying the request. Matching received client device information to stored client device data based on a user identifier obtained from a short-range transceiver provides an enhanced ability to verify that the client device corresponds to the user associated with the short-range transceiver.

  • Patent number: 12160419
    Abstract: The exemplary embodiments described herein overcome problems encountered by conventional systems by providing an authenticated messaging environment in which a user can securely message with a programmatic intelligent agent. The user may be authenticated at the prompting of the programmatic intelligent agent, such as the beginning of a messaging session or when the user submits a request that requires access to sensitive or confidential information or requires access to a secure account. The prompt may take the form of a message sent from the programmatic intelligent agent. The message may contain a link for launching code, such as an application, that facilitates authentication of the user's identity. The user may activate the link to launch the code and then perform the steps requested by the code to perform the authentication.

  • Patent number: 12159285
    Abstract: Application-based point of sale systems in mobile operating systems. A first application may generate a first URL directed to a second application, a parameter of the first URL comprising an identifier of the first application. A mobile operating system (OS) may access the first URL to open the second application. The second application may receive, from a server, a virtual account number (VAN). The second application may initiate a server on a port and generate a second URL directed to the first application, a parameter of the second URL comprising the port. The OS may access the second URL to open the first application. The first application may establish a connection with the server using the specified port and receive the VAN from the second application via the connection. The first application may autofill the VAN to a form field of a payment form in the first application.
