Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a method for improved security in a networked computing environment, the method comprising: receiving, from a user device, a registration request comprising a user identifier for a user; receiving, from the user device, user credentials to access one or more online accounts associated with the user; accessing the one or more online accounts to retrieve user activity data for the user; analyzing the retrieved user activity data to determine one or more merchants associated with the user; storing, in a database coupled to a server device, a mapping between the user and the one or more merchants; receiving, from a monitoring service, an indication that a first merchant of the one or more merchants has experienced a data breach; and sending a notification to the user in response to determining that the first merchant has experienced a data breach.

Abstract: A system and method for improved security in a networked computing environment. The method includes receiving, from a user device, a registration request comprising a user identifier for a user; receiving, from the user device, user credentials to access one or more online accounts associated with the user; accessing the one or more online accounts to retrieve user activity data for the user; analyzing the retrieved user activity data to determine one or more merchants associated with the user; storing, in a database coupled to a server device, a mapping between the user and the one or more merchants; receiving, from a monitoring service, an indication that a first merchant of the one or more merchants has experienced a data breach; and sending a notification to the user in response to determining that the first merchant has experienced a data breach.

Abstract: In a method for changing a user's bank account information in merchant account databases a server receives a login request including a user identification and first user authentication information. The server further receives a request to change bank account information from a first bank account to a second bank account for merchant accounts of the user and network login information for the first bank account. The server accesses an account information database for the first bank account and downloads transaction information for merchant transactions involving the first bank account. The server identifies a set of merchant user accounts involved in the merchant transactions and receives account login information for a data site associated with a selected account. The server accesses the data site and changes a bank account identification stored therein from the first bank account to the second bank account.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for utilizing virtual reality for virtual cards. For example, a method of determining verification information may include: obtaining an image of a merchant site of a merchant captured by at least one camera of a first computing device, wherein the merchant site is displayed on a display of a second computing device; identifying one or more characters in the captured image; determining that the identified one or more characters indicate a virtual credit card number associated with a user; determining a card verification value associated with the virtual credit card number and an expiration date associated with the virtual credit card number; and displaying information regarding the determined virtual credit card number on a display of the first computing device.

Abstract: A device may receive transaction information related to a transaction that an individual is completing. The transaction information may identify a location of the transaction and the individual that is completing the transaction. The device may determine, prior to completing the transaction and based on data from a sensor of a transaction terminal or from a user device associated with the individual, that the individual did not use a benefit account associated with the location in association with completing the transaction. The benefit account may be a rewards account, a loyalty account, or a discount account. The device may perform an action to facilitate use of the benefit account in association with completing the transaction. The action may be performed prior to completing the transaction. The device may perform another action to complete the transaction after performing the action to facilitate use of the benefit account.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, a receipt image may be augmented via a user device. In some embodiments, the user device may capture an image associated with a receipt and display the image associated with the receipt. The user device may perform image processing on the image to determine merchant data and transaction data (that are visually depicted on the receipt) and determine a tip recommendation based on the merchant data and the transaction data. The user device may overlay the tip recommendation onto the image associated with the receipt.

Abstract: A device may receive transaction information related to a transaction in association with the transaction being completed. The device may identify a set of identifiers included in the transaction information. The device may determine a time of interest associated with the transaction based on the set of identifiers included in the transaction information. Different identifiers or different combinations of identifiers included in the set of identifiers may be associated with different times of interest. The device may prompt, via a display associated with a remote computing device by providing instructions associated with a user interface for display via the display, a user of the remote computing device to indicate whether to generate a calendar reminder for the time of interest after determining the time of interest. The device may perform an action after receiving a response to the prompt from the user of the remote computing device.
