  • Patent number: 10210493
    Abstract: A system for routing an image file in a network includes primary network resources, secondary network resources, and an image routing processor that receives the image file from a user device via the primary network resources, creates an association in real-time between the image file and an image address that facilitates retrieving the image file from a repository of a financial institution, communicates a message enabling the user device to use the image address to immediately retrieve the image file stored in the repository of the financial institution, receives a user request to retrieve the image file associated with the image address, uses the image address to retrieve the image file from the repository of the financial institution, and routes the image file prior to the secondary network resources posting a financial transaction based on a financial instrument depicted in the image file.
