  • Patent number: 11196737
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for secondary authentication via contactless distribution of dynamic resources. When an event request associated with a user is received, a prompt for event information is transmitted to a computing device. Based on the event information that is received, a determination is made that the event request requires a secondary authentication in the form of a near field communication (“NFC”) interaction between an NFC chip associated with the user and a secondary authentication device. The NFC chip associated with the user may additionally be associated with a dynamic resource value element. Once the NFC interaction is detected, a dynamic resource value is extracted and compared to an expected dynamic resource value. If the values match, then the user is authenticated for the requested event at the secondary authentication level.

  • Patent number: 11190617
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for transmitting data to networked resources based on extracted contextual information from said networked resources. The system gathers contextual data from devices on the network, extracts contextual information from the contextual data, and determines supplemental resources to provide to the networked devices based on the contextual information. The system may further provide an augmented reality environment to a networked device that integrates identifies objects in an image and integrates notifications of supplemental resources in the augmented reality environment.

  • Patent number: 10998937
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed facilitating an electronic resource distribution by embedding a short-range wireless tag in a resource distribution request that stores instructions for processing the resource distribution in a fully electronic processing flow. As such, the resource distribution request holder is capable of processing the request without issuing a resource distribution document to the resource requester. In additional embodiments of the invention, the short-range wireless tag further stores instructions for arranging subsequent resource distributions to the resource requester to occur without the need for the resource requester to present a resource request document.

  • Patent number: 10986541
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for dynamic utilization of alternative resources based on token association. The system is typically configured for receiving a request from a user to generate a generic token for a digital wallet located on a mobile device of the user, generating the generic token and associating one or more resource credentials of the user with the generic token, transmitting the generic token to the mobile device of the user and storing the generic token in the digital wallet, receiving an interaction request from an authorization network to route an interaction, and routing the interaction to complete the interaction by selecting at least one resource credential from the one or more resource credentials associated with the generic token and transmitting the at least one resource credential to the authorization network.

  • Patent number: 10979306
    Abstract: The invention comprises a user friendly investment strategy platform. This invention allows for a drag-and-drop platform for various sectors, strategies, vehicles, and timing in the form of blocks. This allows a user to generate any desired resource management strategy and the system may deploy the strategy as a simulated resource management action. Furthermore, the system allows for deployment of the resource action live on a resource exchange upon user authorization. The blocks include object codes that are programmed to build out any possible resource management strategy. The invention may also suggest or recommend thresholds, and other templates that allow for customization.

  • Publication number: 20200349552
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for secure contactless distribution of dynamic resources. Resource information may be written onto a near field communication (“NFC”) chip associated with a user, and a dynamic resource value element can be associated with this NFC chip. When an NFC interaction between the NFC chip associated with the user and a computing device of the user is detected, the computing device of the user extracts the resource information from the NFC chip, along with a dynamic resource value. The dynamic resource value is compared to an expected dynamic resource value and, if the values match, the extracted resource information is populated into memory fields of the computing device of the user.
