Abstract: Funding source data, such as bank account information or credit card information, associated with a user is stored in an enterprise-wide database maintained by an institution, such as a financial services institution. The data in the enterprise-wide database may be accessible to entities associated with the institution upon the user's authorization. The user only has to provide the funding source data once and may then use that funding source to pay for any product, service, bill, etc. associated with any of the entities of the institution. A user may update funding source data once, and this updated funding source data may then be available to all the entities. After providing account details for the user's various funding sources, a user can assign any of the funding sources to a payment plan for any product or service in any entity of the institution.

Abstract: Systems and methods for directing the transfer of funds are described. Funds to be distributed to a user are received by the system. User distribution preferences are read and the funds are distributed to various sources according to the preferences. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for automatically identifying and managing potentially fraudulent transactions without adversely impacting legitimate customers. In one implementation, the methods and systems provide a transaction risk analyzer for analyzing a risk associated with a financial transaction. The transaction risk analyzer quickly and automatically evaluates a number of factors in connection with each transaction to determine the risk associated with the transaction. The factors may include, for example, the relationship of the customer to the financial services company, the identity of the customer, and the behavior pattern of the customer. A set of business rules may then be applied to these factors to help distinguish between potentially fraudulent transactions and legitimate transactions. Based on the business rules, the transaction risk analyzer may recommend certain actions to mitigate loss potentially resulting from the transaction.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing dynamic integration and access to disparate data sources are described. The apparatus may include an internal data source access engine, an external data source access engine, an integration engine and a user interface module. The method may comprise receiving a request for bill-pay services from a user, first retrieving internal bill-pay information, second retrieving external bill-pay information, integrating the first retrieved and second retrieved information into a single unified graphical presentation, presenting the unified graphical presentation to the user.
