Abstract: A method is provided. The method includes receiving a request message, the request message relating to a transaction between a first client and a second client, the request message including first client data and second client data, the first client data identifying an account to be used by the first client in the transaction, the second client data indicating if the second client is subscribed to a service. The method further includes determining if the second client is subscribed to the service, and generating an authentication request message if the second client is not subscribed to the service, the authentication request message requesting confirmation that a holder of the account is the first client. The method further includes sending the authentication request message, and receiving an authentication response message from the external server in response, the authentication response message including an indication whether the holder is the first client.

Abstract: A remote payments assurance system includes a Proxy Service Manager Server, an Authentication Service Manager Server computer, an Acquirer Financial Institution (FI) Server computer, a payment network, and an Issuer financial institution server computer. A storage device of the Proxy Service Manager Server computer stores instructions which causes a processor to receive a consumer authentication request from a merchant device obtained during a card not present (CNP) transaction, transmit the consumer authentication request to the Authentication Service Manager Server computer, establish a secure communications channel between the Proxy Service Manager Server computer and the Authentication Service Manager Server computer, and transmit the consumer authentication request via the secure communications channel to the Authentication Service Manager Server computer.

Abstract: Payments assurance methods and systems are described. In some embodiments, a Proxy Service Manager Server computer receives a consumer authentication request from a merchant device, and transmits that request to an Authentication Service Manager Server computer. The Proxy Service Manager Server computer then receives a non-repudiable accountholder authentication value (“AAV”) token, generates a payment authorization request that includes the AAV token, and transmits the payment authorization request to an Acquirer financial institution (FI) Server computer. The Proxy Service Manager Server computer is then operable to receive a payment authorization message, and to transmit the payment authorization message to the merchant device to enable a merchant to complete a purchase transaction with a consumer.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic currency conversion and a server for an intermediary that transmits messages between participants of a transaction which requires currency conversion are provided. An exemplary method comprises determining that a transaction requires currency conversion, and obtaining at an intermediary a currency conversion rate for the currency conversion, wherein the intermediary transmits messages between participants of the transaction and where the messages enable each of the participants to perform their part in the transaction. The method also comprises facilitating the currency conversion using the currency conversion rate to obtain an amount of the transaction in a desired currency.
