Abstract: A method for operating a transaction processing system to provide location based language capabilities and dynamic receipts in connection with money transfer services. One embodiment includes storing, in a database, information representative of transaction location based attributes and associated one or more languages, and storing information representative of receipt field attributes and associated receipt fields. Send and/or receive transaction requests from points of sale are received at a transaction processor. The received transaction requests are processed using the stored information in the database to identify transaction location attributes of the requests and the associated one or more languages, and processed using the information stored in the database to identify receipt field attributes of the requests and to determine the associated receipt fields.

Abstract: Various embodiments concern methods of operating a server to facilitate transfer of a voucher to a receiver. Such methods include receiving a request at a server from a sender, the request indicating an identity of a receiver and a value designation, and receiving a selection of one or more vendors at the server. The methods further include sending a reference number to the sender from the server and receiving the reference number at the server from the receiver. The reference number is communicated from the sender to the receiver independently of the server. The methods further include authorizing release of a voucher to the receiver based on the reception of the reference number at the server and authentication of the identity of the receiver, the voucher redeemable only for goods and services with the selected one or more vendors.

Abstract: Systems, methods and devices which provide controls to a parent entity over computing resources residing with an agent entity are discussed herein. In one example, embodiments may allow a parent entity to control peripheral hardware devices which are otherwise controlled locally by a computing device at an agent location. Further, in one embodiment, a parent entity may control the receipt of information from an agent computing device in order to authenticate the agent device. In one embodiment, such control may be implemented via a shell application that executes on an agent computing device when the agent is processing a financial transaction via a web browser interface.

Abstract: Systems and methods which allow funds from one or more money transfer transactions to be delivered to a receiving party in a virtual form are provided. In some embodiments, a receiving party may receive a virtual credit card account for the money transfer amount, which can then be used to provide payment to an entity that accepts credit card transactions. In other embodiments, funds may be sent to a virtual account, such as a virtual wallet, which may be utilized to provide payments to third parties. In the event that a portion or all of the transferred funds are not utilized, embodiments may also provide for refunding the funds to the sending party.
