Patent number: 8266031Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to facilitate the sharing of account features. In one aspect, a system includes a transaction handler to process transactions and a data warehouse to record the transactions and store account data identifying account features of separate accounts, such as a second account having a feature and a first account without this feature. Account holders of the first and second accounts are in a same household and thus, in accordance with a set of rules, eligible to share the account features. A portal is configured to receive a request identifying the first account and to determine whether a transaction initiated in the first account and qualified for a benefit of the account feature is entitled to the benefit; and if so, a notification engine is to transmit a notification message to an account holder of the first account.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2010Date of Patent: September 11, 2012Assignee: Visa U.S.A.Inventors: Mark Norris, Shaun Bodington, Nicola Stiff, Raymond Olson, Janet Martin, Rosann Woods, John Carr
