  • Publication number: 20260238494
    Abstract: Arrangements for generating and using client-side generated one-time passcodes (OTP) for transaction processing are provided. A request to register a user and/or user computing device for client-side OTP processing may be received. A request to register a merchant for client-side OTP processing may also be received and, in respond, a unique access key unique to the merchant may be generated and transmitted to one or more devices. A request to process a transaction may be received and may include the unique access key, transaction details, and user device data. The request may be analyzed to determine whether one or more criteria are met. If so, client-side OTP functions may be enabled. If not, client-side OTP functions might not be enabled and, instead, a request for additional authentication data may be generated and transmitted to the user computing device for display.

  • Patent number: 12574368
    Abstract: Arrangements for pre-authenticating users to interactive voice response (IVR) systems are provided. In some examples, a computing device may receive and store a valid telephone number associated with an enterprise organization IVR system and an enterprise organization application programming interface (API) access key. A request to initiate a communication session with the IVR system may be received and the request may include a telephone number. If the telephone number matches the valid telephone number, an API call to the enterprise organization may be made and a one-time passcode (OTP) may be received. The telephone number may be appended to include the OTP as a suffix and the communication session with the IVR system may be initiated. The IVR system may extract the OTP and validate the OTP. If the OTP is validated, the communication session may be initiated as a pre-authenticated call.

  • Patent number: 12563143
    Abstract: Arrangements for pre-authenticating users to interactive voice response (IVR) systems are provided. In some examples, a user may initiate, via an application executing on a mobile device of the user, a telephone call to an IVR system. A computing platform may intercept the call and may generate a one-time passcode (OTP). The OTP may be appended to the telephone number as a suffix and the telephone call may be initiated with the IVR system using the telephone number and appended suffix. The IVR system may extract the OTP and may validate the OTP. If the OTP is validated, the call may be initiated as a pre-authenticated call in which the IVR system might not request authentication data from the user. If the OTP is not validated, the call may be initiated as a standard call in which the IVR system may request authentication data from the user.

  • Publication number: 20250117791
    Abstract: User authentication and validation for performing transactions may be performed by a validation server of a service provider. For example, when a login request or purchase request is received, the request may be authenticated or validated before permitting the requested transaction. In some arrangements, the validation may be delegated to one or more devices or users external to the service provider. Multiple validation users may be consulted for each transaction request to determine a consensus validation decision. A consensus may be reached based on unanimous responses or based on a specified threshold level (e.g., more than 50% responding positively or negatively). The service provider may use this consensus determination to authorize or reject a transaction request.

  • Patent number: 12118523
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to using machine learning to simulate an interactive voice response system. A computing platform may establish a virtual assistant session with a mobile banking application executing on a mobile device, which may include authenticating at least one authentication credential associated with an online banking account. The computing platform may receive an assistance message from the mobile device requesting assistance. Using a machine learning model, the computing platform may identify an intent of the assistance message. The computing platform may generate a response message based on the intent of the assistance message. The computing platform may send the response message and one or more commands directing the mobile device to output an audio response file based on the response message to the mobile device, which may cause the mobile device to convert the response message into the audio response file and output the audio response file.
