Techniques for token proximity transactions

Systems and methods are provided to enable a user to conduct a transaction using their credentials stored on a secure server computer (e.g., a computer associated with a partner such as another merchant) by merely presenting their authentication data at a physical location via an auxiliary device. An auxiliary device may be provided for interfacing with a partner's backend server (e.g., the secure server computer). In some embodiments, biometric authentication may provide a mechanism for a true seamless and potentially frictionless (in the case of modalities that do not require physical contact) interaction. Payment can occur without any need for a card, phone, wearable, or any other user device as long as the auxiliary device is able to recognize the user and retrieve a credential that can be linked to that user.

Non fungible token (NFT) based licensing and digital rights management (DRM) for software and other digital assets

NFTs are used to provide software licensing and DRM in a manner that is transferrable, allowing licensees to swap and resell licensed software according to terms specified by the licensor. NFTs are used to prove ownership of software and other digital assets on a blockchain. The blockchain provides a distributed public ledger that enables the tracking of ownership of the assets, without the use of a centralized server. Since software and other digital content licenses concern digital assets, they can be granted, tracked, and revoked on the blockchain via the use of NFTs. NFTs and the blockchain therefore provide a mechanism which is used to verify and authenticate software licenses, digital content licenses, and other types of licenses for digital assets. Smart contracts may be used to define and enforce the terms of the licenses, at any level of granularity.

Authorization flow management system

An authorization flow management system provides multiple authorization options to a user when conducting an authorization event. The system provides options to a user during an authorization event to select a preferred interaction path without integrating the process into a merchant system. The system receives a request from a merchant computing device to authorize an interaction with a user and provides instructions to a user computing device to open a window on a user interface to receive a security code and to display options to select from one of at least two interaction paths, such as paying with rewards points or with an equal payment plan. When the user communicates a response to the opened window that selects one of the interaction paths and the communicated code, the system conducts the interaction utilizing the selected interaction path and communicates an authorization for the interaction to the merchant computing device.
