Abstract: A credit card provider server device collects data indicative of at least one of i) environment of a user, ii) activities of the user, and iii) other characteristics of the user. When the credit card provider server device receives, from a payment issuer server device, a context request requesting a user context at a time a payment request is made, the credit card provider server device generates a user context for the user. The user context includes one or more indications related to the one or both of the environment of the user and the activities of the user at the time of the payment request. The credit card provider server device transmits the user context to the payment issuer server device for use in authenticating the payment request.
