  • Patent number: 11126707
    Abstract: An entity may generate digital account credentials when a new account is approved for generation by an authorizing entity that controls or issues new accounts. A user may contact an authorizing entity to open a new account with the authorizing entity. The authorizing entity may authenticate the user and may approve a new account to be generated for the user. The user may wish to conduct transactions immediately upon approval. However, the authorizing entity may not immediately generate a physical identification device along with an actual account identifier associated with the new account. An intermediary entity may generate digital account credentials for the new account immediately after the authorizing entity approves generation of the new account, provide the digital account credentials to the account holder, and process transactions using the digital account credentials.

  • Patent number: 11128619
    Abstract: Techniques are described for secure access for assisted transactions in an online banking system. A server of the online banking system is configured to establish an assisted session during which both a primary user and an assistant user have secure access to the primary user's account via their respective computing devices. The techniques enable the assistant user to request transactions with the primary user's account on the primary user's behalf, and further enable the primary user to approve the requested transactions prior to performance. The techniques include translating the requested transactions into a natural language description that is understandable to the primary user, and presenting the natural language description to the primary user for approval or denial of the requested transaction. In this way, a primary user may receive the assistance necessary to use an online banking system without giving up all control over the primary user's account.

  • Patent number: 11120487
    Abstract: Systems and methods according to which a mobile application is running on a driver's mobile device for authenticating ride share drivers. When a driver initially registers with a rideshare service, the driver is prompted to provide biometric information via a mobile app running on the driver's mobile device. The biometric information is then stored in a database with a ride share management server in a file associated with the driver's account. Subsequently, when the driver expresses an offer to provide a ride share trip, the server performs an authentication check based on the pre-stored biometric information. Furthermore, the system discloses herein facilitates increased rideshare revenue generation by creating referral chains for a driver when a previously-registered driver, or an affiliate of the rideshare service refers a proposed new driver to the rideshare service and the proposed new driver then registers with the rideshare service.

  • Patent number: 11068894
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for tokenless authentication of a paying consumer during a payment transaction uses a computing device having a processor and a memory. The method includes receiving a plurality of biometric data sets for a plurality of consumers. Each biometric data set includes at least a biometric image of a consumer and an associated payment account identifier. The method also includes receiving, from a first biometric input device communicatively coupled to the processor, a first biometric image of the paying consumer including an iris image. The method further includes determining a payment account associated with the paying consumer based on at least the first biometric image and the plurality of biometric data sets. The method also includes authenticating use of the payment account by the paying consumer for a payment transaction at the retail location by comparing the first biometric image to the plurality of biometric data sets.

  • Patent number: 11055685
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for sorted parallel processing of large dataset to provide quicker search results to a user. An embodiment operates by receiving a search request containing a first attribute from a user, determining an intermediate result set of items in a database based on the search request, and sorting the items based on a second attribute of the items. The embodiment further operates by dividing the sorted items into a plurality of batches with sequential IDs, determining a result corresponding to the first attribute for each item in parallel, creating a sequentially-ordered list of determined results, identifying a subset of determined results based on a comparison between the determined results and a target result, determining a final result set of items, and returning at least a portion of the final result set of items to the user.

  • Patent number: 11055734
    Abstract: A communication portal coupled with a processing system and a host having a first resource. The processing system has a second resource addressable by a terminal using a predetermined communication protocol. The communication portal receives a first communication from a terminal identifying the first resource. In response, the communication portal identifies the second resource, stores a data record associating the first resource and the second resource, and provides a response to the first communication to identify the second resource. The terminal then uses the communication protocol adapted for the second resource as a way to request an operation on the first resource. The portal communicates with the processing system to identify a request for an operation on the second resource and in response, communicates with the host to perform a second operation on the first resource based on the stored data record associating the first resource and the second resource.

  • Patent number: 11048984
    Abstract: Disclosed are a system, apparatus and techniques for evaluating a dataset to confirm that the data in the dataset satisfies a data quality metric. A machine learning engine or the like may evaluate text strings within the dataset may be of arbitrary length and encoded according to an encoding standard. Data vectors of a preset length may be generated from the evaluated text strings using various techniques. Each data vector may be representative of the content of the text string and a category may be assigned to the respective data vector. The category assigned to each data vectors may be evaluated with respect to other data vectors in the dataset to determine compliance with a quality metric. In the case that a number of data vectors fail to meet a predetermined quality metric, an alert may be generated to mitigate any system errors that may result from unsatisfactory data quality.
