  • Patent number: 12094011
    Abstract: A computer system for identifying merchant category code misclassifications includes at least one processor in communication with a transaction database and a merchant database. The transaction database stores transaction records by a plurality of account holders. The processor generates a first MCC profile including at least one transaction characteristic representative of merchants properly classified as the first MCC and comparing the first MCC profile to a second set of transaction records. If the comparison satisfies a comparison threshold for the first MCC the processor identifies the corresponding selected merchant as being MCC misclassified.

  • Publication number: 20230095834
    Abstract: Embodiments provide methods and systems for identifying a re-routed transaction. Method performed by processor includes retrieving a plurality of transaction windows from a transaction database. Each transaction window includes a transaction declined under a restricted MCC. The method includes accessing a plurality of features associated with each transaction of each transaction window from the transaction database. The method includes predicting an output dataset of a plurality of reconstructed transaction windows based on feeding the input dataset to a trained neural network model. The method includes computing a corresponding reconstruction loss value for each transaction of each transaction window. The method includes comparing the corresponding reconstruction loss value for each transaction with a pre-determined threshold value.

  • Patent number: 11514533
    Abstract: A computer system for identifying merchant category code misclassifications includes at least one processor in communication with a transaction database and a high-risk merchant database. The transaction database stores transaction records by a plurality of account holders. The high-risk merchant database stores high-risk merchant records each associated with high-risk merchants. The processor queries the transaction database for transaction records and calculates a high-risk cardholder metric for each of the account numbers. The at least one processor further queries the transaction database for transaction records including (i) the account number of high-risk cardholders, and (ii) a merchant identifier associated with other than the plurality of high-risk merchants, to retrieve a second set of transaction records. The at least one processor further calculates a high-risk merchant metric for each of the merchant identifiers, identifying a MCC misclassified merchant.

  • Publication number: 20220084091
    Abstract: Systems and computer-implemented methods are described disambiguating seller identities and assessing sellers based on continuous learning. For example, a system may identify and assess sellers across multiple channels such as electronic marketplaces by aggregating data at different time points from one or more sources of data that may each include respective and different seller details known about sellers to learn current information relating to sellers. Because of the different ways in which the sources of data may store and transmit their respective seller details, the system may aggregate the data from the different data sources, disambiguate sellers associated with the aggregated data, and generate a seller response message arranged based on a data structure that uses linkage identifiers that each groups aggregated data predicted to relate to a respective seller.
