Abstract: In operating a payment card account transaction acquirer computer, a transaction request message is received from a merchant. The message represents a purchase transaction accepted by the merchant. The transaction request message is in a format required by a payment card account system. The message includes an indication that funds corresponding to the purchase transaction are to be transferred to a bank account to benefit the merchant via an EFT system. The indication is detected by the payment card account transaction acquirer computer. That computer stores a record of the purchase transaction. In response to the detection of the indication, a flag is set in the record. The flag indicates that the record is not to be submitted for clearing in the payment card account system.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for systems and methods are described herein for providing a payment network platform that facilitates the integration of third-party value added service provider applications (“VAS Apps”) within the infrastructure of a payment device network. The systems and methods for providing a payment network platform described herein enable a series of operations whereby VAS Apps are selectively and under the control of the payment network platform system server, provided access to transaction data for transactions being processed by and through the payment device network system for the purpose of performing supplemental processing of such transactions and thereby providing value added services to transacting network participants that have subscribed to the services provided by the VAS App.

Abstract: A transaction authorization request message is received. The message includes a payment token and a merchant identifier. The payment token is detokenized to detect account mapping for the payment token. From the account mapping, it is determined that a debit transaction option and an ACH (automated clearing house) transaction option exist for the payment token. A selection is made between the debit transaction option and the ACH transaction option based at least in part on the merchant identifier.

Abstract: A method includes, receiving one or more merchant profiles, wherein each merchant profile includes data related to a related merchant including at least a respective merchant identifier, a respective merchant geolocation, and one or more payment methods accepted by the respective merchant as a form of payment; determining a geolocation associated with a mobile device of a consumer; identifying a first merchant profile, of the one or more merchant profiles, associated with a first merchant, wherein the geolocation associated with the mobile device of the consumer corresponds to the merchant geolocation included in the identified first merchant profile; transmitting an indication of the one or more payment methods accepted by the first merchant as a form of payment; and causing the mobile device of the consumer to output information associated with the one or more payment methods accepted by the first merchant.

Abstract: A method includes applying at least one fraud management machine learning algorithm to a corpus of payment card account transactions. A fraud management profile is built for a payment account holder who performed the payment card account transactions. After the algorithm is applied, the account holder is issued access to perform EFT (electronic funds transfer) transactions via an EFT network switch. The EFT transactions are initiated by the account holder at payment card account acceptance points. The EFT transactions are funded by a bank deposit account owned by the account holder. The fraud management profile is applied to perform fraud management review of the EFT transactions.
