Patent number: 10755457Abstract: Various examples are directed to computer-implemented systems and methods for graphical representation of financial account outflow. The method includes obtaining, by a processor of a computer, a transaction of an account holder including an amount and frequency of the transaction, and categorizing the transaction on a continuum of discretionary spending and fixed expense spending. The transaction is displayed by the processor on a user interface using a graph having an x-axis providing a frequency of the at least one transaction, and a y-axis indicating the categorization of the transaction. The transaction is displayed as a bubble on the graph, where the bubble has a diameter that is proportional to the amount of the transaction.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2019Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Erik Schutzman, Tambra Nichols, Susan Bell McCraw, H.

Patent number: 10748136Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for verifying physical presence of a mobile device as part of an electronic transaction. Tags may be generated and displayed on one or more display devices. Those tags, which may be time-limited, may be read by a mobile device to verify physical presence of the mobile device as a prerequisite to initiating, continuing with, or completing an electronic transaction, and/or as a decision point in how the electronic transaction is to be conducted.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2019Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Zainab Zaki, Jackson Cheek

Patent number: 10733643Abstract: A variety of systems, methods and arrangements are implemented in connection with a processor-controlled routing arrangement. According to one such implementation, a computer-implemented method facilitates payment provided between disparate payment networks of buyers and sellers. The method uses a computer-arrangement to interface with a social website that has user profiles, each user profile corresponding to a user identifier, and for use with a seller website that offers products or services for purchase by users and that generates transaction data for a current user accessing the website. A current user identifier corresponding to a current user profile and the transaction data is communicates to the computer-arrangement. A buyer payment network is selected from a plurality of disparate buyer payment networks that are each associated with the current user identifier. Based upon the selection, the transaction data is formatted to facilitate payment against the selected buyer payment network.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2016Date of Patent: August 4, 2020Assignee: U.S. Bank National AssociationInventor: Mark Dickelman

Patent number: 10713732Abstract: Systems and methods of processing business related data arising from multiple revenue sources (e.g., sales, subscriptions, professional services, vendors, etc.). In some embodiments, the inventive system and methods enable a more flexible and efficient approach to identifying revenue source events (mediation), pricing those events (typically as part of a rating process), and subsequently leveraging those “ratable events” in the billing and revenue recognition subsystems according to configurable rules and schedules. Data regarding those charges or other aspects of a ratable event may then be used and processed by multiple sub-systems that are part of operating a business; such sub-systems may include one or more of ERP, CRM, HCM, financial, accounting, taxation, or other business-related system or function.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2016Date of Patent: July 14, 2020Assignee: NETSUITE, INC.Inventors: Dennis Paul Shak, Jeremy John Blanchard, Andrew Owen Vincent, Peter Fung, Xiaozheng (Michael) Ye, Stephen Clode, Truman (Clyde) Adley, Jr., Christopher Craxton, Jeffrey Jones, Brian Purville

Patent number: 10643189Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for activating a software product for use by a customer of a financial institution that accesses an on-line banking product on an on-line banking server. A request from the financial institution to activate the software product for use by the customer is received through an interface such as an extranet site of a host of the on-line banking product. An enablement request is transmitted from the interface to an activation server, and a script on the activation server is executed to modify a configuration element to automatically activate the software program for the customer. Thus, the financial institution, which does not host the on-line banking product, drives automatic activation of the software product without manual input by project managers or technical support persons of the on-line banking product host.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2009Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: INTUIT INC.Inventors: Leslie J. Smith, Michael C. Morgan, Marcus A. Holt, Eric T. Horne, Eric T. Hollinshead, Harriet A. Henderson, Gregory D. Yenney, Matthew M. Thomas

Patent number: 10628389Abstract: A proof of provenance system receives database logs from an existing system that does not natively provide data provenance verification. The system produces a local representation of the database (or a portion thereof). The system periodically or in response to another triggering event flattens the local representation of the database to generate an aggregated slice, which is stored in an aggregated slice store. A reduced representation of the aggregated slice (e.g., a hash or checksum) is determined and appended to a distributed ledger, such as a blockchain. The provenance of data from the existing system can then be verified by redetermining the reduced representation and comparing it to the version appended to the distributed ledger.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2018Date of Patent: April 21, 2020Assignee: Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.Inventor: Jacob Ryan Bordens

Patent number: 10621562Abstract: A user is initially registered during a session with a messaging platform through an out-of-band registration communication. When a user attempts to make a payment within the session or within subsequent sessions with the messaging platform or subsequent sessions with different messaging platforms, the user is presented token names representing registered forms of payment within the user's session. The selected token name is mapped outside the session to specific registered payment details and the payment processing is processed on behalf of the user during the session but through out-of-band session communications. Confirmation of payment is then sent back to the user in a session communication.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2016Date of Patent: April 14, 2020Assignee: NCR CorporationInventors: Patrick Goode Watson, Yehoshua Zvi Licht, Nir Veltman, Brent Vance Zucker
