Patent number: 12614176Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are disclosed for account verification. An example method includes receiving a request for payment transmission from a payment provider device and generating a first verification element for a payment destination device associated with the request for payment transmission. The method further includes transmitting the first verification element to the payment destination device via a first real-time payment message. In an instance in which the computing device receives responsive authorization from the payment destination device, the method includes verifying the payment destination device. In response to verifying the payment destination device, the method includes transmitting a first real-time payment to the payment destination device. In an instance in which the computing device fails to receive responsive authorization from the payment destination device, the method includes transmitting a verification failure notification to the payment provider device.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2024Date of Patent: April 28, 2026Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Daniel Alexander David, Christina Zikeli, Kellie L. Thomas, Jeffrey A. Knight, Todd Klapprodt, Lofton Worth

Publication number: 20230306423Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are disclosed for effectuating payment for time-sensitive responses. An example method includes receiving a time-sensitive request for payment from a service provider device, generating an actionable payment notification for a first user device associated with the time-sensitive request for payment, and transmitting the actionable payment notification to the first user device. In an instance in which the computing device receives responsive authorization from the first user device, the method includes transmitting a first real-time payment to the service provider device. In an instance in which the computing device fails to receive responsive authorization from the first user device, the method includes transmitting a payment failure notification to the service provider device.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2019Publication date: September 28, 2023Inventors: Daniel Alexander David, Hunter Doolittle, Shane Duncan Eaton, Todd Klapprodt, Jeffrey A.

Patent number: 11748368Abstract: A method may include receiving a data file comprising receivable information associated with at least one transaction; detecting that the data file fails to conform to a defined format; separating the receivable information into a plurality of fields; receiving input identifying remittance information in the plurality of fields; reformatting the data file according to the input into a reformatted data file; and transmitting the reformatted data file for processing of the remittance information.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2021Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Seth M. Blacher, Karin L. Farnsworth, Kellie L. Thomas, Irvin J. Cooper

Patent number: 11720867Abstract: In an embodiment, a computing system receives a first electronic remittance corresponding to a first electronic payment to a payee. The system determines that the first remittance is in a first, unrecognized format, and responsively presents, to the payee, a user interface for matching electronic remittances to electronic payments. The system receives, via the user interface, field-mapping information between the first format and a second, recognized format. The system receives a second electronic remittance corresponding to a second electronic payment directed to the payee, determines that the second remittance is in the first format, and responsively uses the field-mapping information to convert the second remittance to the second format. The system matches the converted remittance to the second payment, and provides, to the payee, a payment file that indicates a match between the second remittance and the second payment.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2021Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Seth M. Blacher, Raymond Francis Gatland, Irvin J. Cooper, Karin L. Farnsworth, Kellie L. Thomas, Derek D. Mohr

Patent number: 11087296Abstract: System and techniques for programmatic reconciliation of electronic receivables are described herein. An electronic payment remittance and an electronic payment may be received. At least one payer profile may be queried using at least one remittance identifier to obtain a remittance payer profile. The at least one payer profile data base may be queried using at least one payment identifier to obtain a payment payer profile. A referential link may be created between the electronic payment remittance and the electronic payment based on an identification that the remittance payer profile matches the payment payer profile and an identification that at least one remittance identifier matches at least one payment identifier. A payment file may be generated and transmitted based on the referential link, the payment file including an association between the electronic payment remittance, the electronic data, and the referential link. The payment file may be transmitted to a computer.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2016Date of Patent: August 10, 2021Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Seth M.
