Publication number: 20170161741Abstract: A method of processing signals in a payment transaction. At a processor, telephonic signals conveying sensitive and non-sensitive information are received. The processor detects sensitive information conveyed by the received telephonic signals and sends the sensitive information to a token service provider. The token service provider is communicatively coupled to a payment transaction entity and configured to generate surrogate information for the sensitive information. The processor receives surrogate information from the token service provider, the surrogate information having been generated by the token service provider. The processor then outputs the received surrogate information to a transaction handling center such that the sensitive information is not provided to the transaction handling center. At the transaction handling center, the surrogate information is included in a transaction request message and the transaction request message is sent to the payment transaction entity.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2016Publication date: June 8, 2017Applicant: Eckoh UK LimitedInventors: Cameron Peter Sutherland Ross, James Heath, Thomas Edward Briden
