Patent number: 10803692Abstract: A system for authorizing a financial transaction of a financial presentation device such as a credit or debit card being presented from a customer to an online merchant. The system includes a peripheral device having a processor configured to generate a dynamic verification value for the card which changes for each financial transaction, and to transmit the dynamic verification value to a user computer via an I/O interface during an online transaction. The system also includes an authentication computer having a memory for storing information used to generate a comparison verification value, a communication device for receiving the dynamic verification value originating from the peripheral device, a processor and an authentication module executable by the processor adapted to generate the comparison verification value using information stored in memory.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2018Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: Visa U.S.A. Inc.Inventor: Thomas Manessis

Publication number: 20170366530Abstract: A payment authentication service authenticates the identity of a payer during online transactions. The authentication service allows a card issuer to verify a cardholder's identity using a variety of authentication methods, such as with the use of tokens. Authenticating the identity of a cardholder during an online transaction involves querying an access control server to determine if a cardholder is enrolled in the payment authentication service, requesting a password from the cardholder, verifying the password, and notifying a merchant whether the cardholder's authenticity has been verified. Systems for implementing the authentication service in which a cardholder uses a mobile device capable of transmitting messages via the Internet are described. Systems for implementing the authentication service in which a cardholder uses a mobile device capable of transmitting messages through voice and messaging channels is also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2017Publication date: December 21, 2017Inventors: Benedicto Dominguez, Thomas Manessis, Janet Roth, Pascal Achille Caillon, Jason Spielman, Terence Spielman, James Donald Reno

Patent number: 9818112Abstract: Systems and methods for authenticating a party are disclosed. A transaction may be initiated between a relying party and a presenter. The relying party can send the presenter a message with transaction information and requirements for authentication. The presenter can forward the message to a third party, which can authenticate the presenter to the relying party.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2014Date of Patent: November 14, 2017Assignee: VISA INTERNATIONAL SERVICE ASSOCIATIONInventors: Kiushan Pirzadeh, Simon Hurry, Thomas Manessis

Publication number: 20160358175Abstract: A payment authentication service authenticates the identity of a payer during online transactions. The authentication service of the present invention allows a card issuer to verify a cardholder's identity using a variety of authentication methods, such as the use of passwords. Also, the only system participant requiring a certificate is the issuing financial institution. One embodiment of the invention for authenticating the identity of a cardholder during an online transaction involves querying an access control server to determine if a cardholder is enrolled in the payment authentication service, requests a password from the cardholder, verifies the password, and notifies a merchant whether the cardholder's authenticity has been verified. In another aspect of the invention, a chip card and the authentication service independently generate cryptograms that must match in order for the service to verify that the correct chip card is being used by the cardholder.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2016Publication date: December 8, 2016Inventors: Kevin D. Weller, Stephen W. Ryan, Peter R. Hill, Thomas Manessis, Tony D. Lewis, Benedicto H. Dominguez, Peter Bray, James Reno

Patent number: 8904481Abstract: A method is disclosed, which includes receiving a message including an account identifier and a first verification value. The method uses the account identifier to select a dynamic verification value process from at least two dynamic verification value processes. Then, using the selected dynamic verification value process, a second verification value is determined. Next, the method determines if the first verification value and the second verification value match or are within an expected range.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2012Date of Patent: December 2, 2014Assignee: Visa U.S.A. Inc.Inventors: Thomas Manessis, Gary Gerber
