Abstract: A method for processing transactions includes receiving transaction details of a transaction performed by a payer for making a purchase from a first payee. The transaction details include a first payee identifier of the first payee and a purchase amount of the purchase. The first payee identifier is used to access one or more databases for retrieving account details of a second payee and a proportion value of the payment amount. Based on the proportion value, a first amount is withheld for the second payee from an account of the payer. The first amount is then deposited in an account of the second payee linked to the retrieved account details and a certificate of successful deposit of the first amount is communicated to the payer and the first payee.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to an electronic system, a computerized method, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for advertisement pricing. The system comprises a host server configured for performing steps of the method comprising: generating an electronic map representation of a geographical area; demarcating the electronic map representation into a plurality of demarcated regions; retrieving, from a transaction database, transaction data associated with merchant transactions in the plurality of demarcated regions; receiving, from a telecommunications service provider, mobile traffic data for generating consumer traffic data indicative of consumer traffic activity in the plurality of demarcated regions; and performing an advertisement pricing process to determine advertisement prices for each demarcated region based on at least the transaction data and consumer traffic data.

Abstract: A method for secure usage of a gift card via blockchain includes: storing a blockchain including a specific data value related to a gift card that includes a gift card number and a first recipient address; receiving a transfer request including the gift card number, a first digital signature, and a device identifier; verifying the first recipient address based on the first digital signature; generating a new data value comprising the gift card number, the device identifier, and a second recipient address; transmitting the generated new data value to a node associated with the blockchain; receiving a redemption request from a second computing system including the gift card number, a second digital signature, and a submitted device identifier; verifying the second recipient address and submit device identifier based on the second digital signature and the device identifier, respectively; and transmitting a result of the verification to the second computing system.

Abstract: A method for redemption of an electronic voucher via blockchain includes: storing transaction data for a proposed payment transaction comprising a transaction amount; receiving an electronic voucher and a blockchain transaction identifier from a computing device, the voucher including payment credentials associated with a transaction account; receiving blockchain data associated with a blockchain including a transaction data value corresponding to the blockchain transaction identifier including a redemption amount; validating eligibility of the electronic voucher based on a comparison of the transaction data value to the stored transaction data; updating the stored transaction data based on the transaction data value, including updating the transaction amount based on the redemption amount; and transmitting the updated transaction data and the payment credentials included in the electronic voucher to a third party system.

Abstract: A method for verified data storage via blockchain includes: storing a blockchain comprised of a plurality of blocks, each comprised of a block header and a plurality of transaction values, the block header including a timestamp; receiving a transaction notification including an entity identifier and data values; validating the data values based on a validation notification received from a verifying entity; generating a new block header comprised of a current timestamp, a block reference value, and a transaction reference value, the block reference value being generated via hashing of the block header included in a most recent block based on the timestamp, and the transaction reference value being generated via hashing of new transaction values including the data values; generating a new block comprised of the generated new block header and the new transaction values; and transmitting the new block to a node associated with the blockchain.
