  • Publication number: 20230206242
    Abstract: A system for payment routing according to a likelihood of settlement. The system includes processors and/or transceivers programmed to receive a payment transaction message relating to a putative payment transaction. The payment transaction message contains putative payment transaction data including a customer identification (ID) for an account and a transaction amount. The system generates a scaled score representing the likelihood of settlement of the putative payment transaction on at least one date for each of a plurality of potential payment rails. Based at least in part on the at least one scaled score for each of the plurality of potential payment rails, the system selects a payment rail from the plurality of payment rails. The system initiates, via the selected payment rail, a payment transaction corresponding to the putative payment transaction.

  • Patent number: 10650391
    Abstract: A system and a method that determine movement of one or more individuals or populations of individuals are provided. A residential zip code of an individual is determined. Long-term movements are identified. Short-term movements are identified. The long-term and short-term movements are classified. Anonymization removes personally identifying information of the individual. The short-term movements and long-term movements are aggregated by creating source-target zip code pairs. A population movement database is generated. The population movement database is accessible by a user device that has credentials allowing access.
