  • Publication number: 20210142326
    Abstract: A method for providing a gift includes receiving a gift token creation request representative of a selection of a gift recipient and gift limitations from a first computing device. The method includes generating a tokenized PAN associated with a gift account and transmitting the tokenized PAN and gift limitations to a second computing device. The method includes detecting a transaction authorization request that is representative of an attempted transaction at a merchant POS device based on monitoring of transaction authorization data originating from a plurality of merchant POS devices. The transaction authorization request represents an attempted tokenized PAN, an attempted transaction amount and a merchant code. The method includes determining that the attempted tokenized PAN matches the tokenized PAN associated with the gift account.

  • Patent number: 11004057
    Abstract: A method for providing a gift includes receiving gift information from a first computing device. The gift information includes a maximum gift amount, a gift recipient, and a gifter financial account and gift redemption information. The method includes generating a tokenized PAN associated with the gifter financial account, identifying a second computing device associated with the gift recipient, determining one or more gift redemption locations and receiving gift recipient location data. The method includes determining that the second computing device has entered a gift-eligible location based on the gift recipient location data and the one or more redemption locations and transmitting data indicative of a gift for display by the second computing device. The method further includes outputting an instruction to debit the gifter financial account with an amount of money in response to determining that a transaction has been executed using the tokenized PAN at the gift-eligible location.

  • Patent number: 10964126
    Abstract: A device may receive transaction data relating to a transaction event associated with a user and a merchant. The transaction data may include a merchant identifier and a transaction amount. The device may process the merchant identifier to determine whether the transaction event is associated with a rate-based service. The device may obtain, based on determining that the transaction event is associated with the rate-based service, location data from a user device associated with the user. The device may determine, based on the location data, a distance or a duration associated with the rate-based service. The device may determine, based on the distance or the duration, a transaction estimate for the rate-based service. The device may determine whether the transaction amount corresponds to the transaction estimate and perform one or more actions based on determining whether the transaction amount corresponds to the transaction estimate.

  • Publication number: 20210035134
    Abstract: A device may detect a first entry of a first user device of a first user into a merchant area. The device may monitor a movement of the first user device within the merchant area. The movement may include a transition from a shopping area of the merchant area to a checkout area of the merchant area. The device may detect a transaction between the first user and the merchant. The device may determine a shopping duration for the first user and a checkout duration for the first user. The device may detect a second entry of a second user device of a second user into the merchant area. The device may perform one or more actions based on detecting the second entry. The one or more actions may be performed selectively based on the shopping duration or the checkout duration of the first user.

  • Publication number: 20210019734
    Abstract: Using contactless cards to pay for offline transactions. An application executing on a mobile device may receive, via a communications interface of a contactless card, an account identifier of the contactless card, and transaction data received by the contactless card from a POS device via the communications interface, the transaction data comprising at least an identifier of a merchant account, a timestamp, and an amount of the transaction, a network connection between the POS device and a payment server not available. The application may transmit the account identifier and the transaction data to the payment server via a cellular network connection of the mobile device. The mobile device may receive, from the payment server via the cellular network connection, authorization of a payment for the transaction. The application may generate a graphical indication of the authorization of the payment for the transaction and output the graphical indication of the authorization.

  • Publication number: 20200327589
    Abstract: A device may receive, from a transaction device, transaction data relating to a transaction event involving a transaction card that stores user data associated with a user. The transaction data may include the user data and a category identifier of a merchant associated with the transaction device. The device may process the category identifier to determine whether the merchant is associated with an item that has a purchase restriction. The device may determine whether the user data of the transaction data satisfies the purchase restriction. The device may transmit a notification to a user device associated with the user requesting that the user indicate whether the transaction event is approved by the user. The device may receive a response to the notification and selectively process the transaction event or reject the transaction event based on the response.

  • Patent number: 10755337
    Abstract: A system and method for generating a user customized order interface, which displays a customer's previous orders and corresponding specific order information and order recommendations, that may be utilized for ordering and payment. A mobile application may request a merchant ID upon determination by the mobile device that a customer is within a close proximity of a particular merchant location. A payment terminal may pass the corresponding merchant ID to a transaction system, which may retrieve, for example, the customer's previous transactions and corresponding transaction IDs associated with the merchant ID, which may be utilized to generate a user customized order interface, which may be utilized to initiate a transaction by selecting a specific order item to order, and which may utilize the mobile application to confirm the order and proceed to payment, which will transmit the order to a merchant system.
