  • Transaction verification based on a transaction identifier and associated location data
    Patent number: 10789586
    Abstract: The disclosure facilitates a transaction by verifying a transaction claim request. An initiation request, including sender location data indicating a sender location, is received from a sender. A first transaction identifier associated with the transaction and the sender location data are recorded in a data structure. A claim request is received from a candidate recipient, the claim request including a second transaction identifier and recipient location data indicating a recipient location. The first and second transaction identifier are compared. The sender location and recipient location are compared based on a defined range. Based on the first and second transaction identifiers matching and the recipient location being within the defined range of the sender location, the claim request is verified, providing confirmation that the recipient is an intended recipient.
