Patent number: 11455634Abstract: Embodiments provide a method of facilitating a payment transaction with a payment card of a customer. The method includes receiving a payment transaction request initiated at a merchant terminal. The payment transaction request comprises a merchant transaction amount associated with a purchase entered at the merchant terminal and a fingerprint tap input provided by the customer on a fingerprint input module, the fingerprint tap input indicative of a customer transaction amount associated with the purchase. The method includes facilitating verification of a fingerprint obtained from the fingerprint tap input of the customer by comparing with stored fingerprint of the customer. The method further includes, upon successful verification, determining whether the merchant transaction amount conforms to the customer transaction amount obtained from the fingerprint tap input.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2019Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: MASTERCARD INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATEDInventors: Rahul Agrawal, Sudhir Gupta, Harsh Piparsaniya

Patent number: 11455858Abstract: In some examples, a system and method for activating a physical payment card are described. The method includes receiving from a mobile device of a user a request for a physical payment card and first state data indicating a state of the mobile device or an application executing on the mobile device at a time of the request. The physical payment card is mailed to the user. The mobile device reads an identifier on a surface of the container via a sensor of the mobile device and sends the identifier data and a second state data from the time of the reading. The identifier data is compared to a user identifier in a customer profile of the user and the second state data is determined to correspond to the first state data. The physical payment card is then automatically activated.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2020Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: Block, Inc.Inventors: Ayokunle Omojola, Robert Andersen, Daniele Perito, Joachim Bekmann

Patent number: 11449860Abstract: Wait times at ATMs may undermine the utility of these self-service machines. ATMs are configured to provide faster self-service kiosks that allow users to quickly perform common financial transactions. However, it has been increasing common for users to have to wait on a line to access an ATM. Apparatus and methods are provided for a smart card that stages transactions by capturing the amount, pin and other necessary information on the smart card itself, before the user begins interacting with the ATM. Information captured by the smart card may be transferred to ATM when the smart card is inserted into ATM. The user does not provide the ATM with any additional information after inserted the smart card into the ATM, thereby improving the transaction processing efficiency of the ATM and enhancing user satisfaction.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2020Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventor: Saurabh Gupta

Patent number: 11436887Abstract: Various embodiments for contextual tapping engines. For example, an application executing on a computing device may authenticate credentials associated with an account and detect a tap of a contactless card to the computing device. The application may receive, from a communications interface of the contactless card, action data used to determine an action associated with the tap of the contactless card to the computing device. The application may determine a context of the application based on a current output of the application. The application may determine, based on the action data, the determined context, and data associated with the account, a first action associated with the tap of the contactless card to the computing device, the first action associated with at least one of the application and an operating system (OS). The application may initiate performance of the first action based on the tap of the contactless card.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2021Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Jeffrey Rule, Daniel Herrington, Colin Hart, Melissa Yoemans Heng
