Systems and methods are presented for determining risk levels for consumer-to-consumer (C2C) transactions on brokering websites. The risk levels can be based on payment processing network (e.g. Visa) account data as well as external data, such as geo-location using IP addresses, fraud bureau data, and star ratings. The buying and selling consumers can have multiple risk scores for each transaction, such as a fraud, credit, return / chargeback, dissatisfaction, product misuse, nonreturnable, and defect risk scores. The buying and selling consumers can trade their risk levels before proceeding with the transaction.

A user may claim to have not made or allowed a transaction and that the transaction was made in error. Where it appears the user has not authorized the transaction, the funds of the transaction are returned to the user, or are charged back. Systems and methods provide a way to confirm whether or not a transaction was actually authorized by the user, thereby settling a chargeback dispute for a previously executed transaction. The method comprises receiving the dispute regarding the transaction including associated transaction data, and retrieving a digital signature associated with the transaction data, the digital signature computed by signing the transaction data. The digital signature is then verified using a public key, wherein the public key corresponds to a private key stored on a mobile device. It is then determined whether or not the transaction is fraudulent based on a verification result of the digital signature.

A job accounting and chargeback system for software products is comprised of a software license manager in the form of a software product use monitoring subsystem that handles requests for and grants rights to use software products, in such a manner that chargeback data is developed, which is then referenced to entities that are charged for the use of the software products. To better correlate the chargeback data with the use of software products, the chargeback data is referenced to the actual amount and type of use of software products being used, rather than on the use of computer facilities.

Processes for reducing fraudulent credit transactions, including financial (e.g., credit, charge, debit, etc.) card transactions, are introduced, in which merchants receive multi-digit authorization codes from a credit provider (e.g., a customer transaction account card user) with all approved transactions. To guarantee payment, all merchants are required to later resubmit the multi-digit authorization code with every record of charge, regardless of dollar amount, as verification that an authorization was obtained. Merchants that fail to provide any authorization code, or an incorrect authorization code, will be subject to a chargeback for non-compliance.

A simple, non-intrusive, fraud free payment method for customers to make Internet purchases without using credit cards or revealing personal information. Customers can purchase any specific dollar amount of pay codes via on-line purchase by logging into their financial institution and purchasing the codes, via phone banking (using mobile phone or fixed telephone line) or via Automated Teller Machine (ATM). There is no need for the customer to first open an account with the payment service. The easy and fast set-up of a secure payment gateway for website merchants to receive payments for their goods purchased at their websites, eliminates the need of setting up a merchant account, chargeback and being penalized by banks for chargeback on sales. The amount due to the web merchant from the Internet transaction is credited directly into the merchant's bank account when the transaction and payment is approved by the customer's bank.

A system and a method for determining financial health of a selected merchant based on chargeback transaction data in a database of transactions. An indication, which can be a number representative of financial health, is generated by comparing the number of chargeback transactions for the selected merchant with the total number of transactions not involving chargebacks for that merchant. The comparison can be made during various time periods, such as from a month to a year. The indication representative of financial health for selected merchants may be made available to a cardholder or consumer, especially a cardholder who has purchased one or more undelivered forward-sold goods and / or services from the merchant. The system and method helps ensure that a cardholder is informed in a timely manner of bankruptcy or insolvency of a merchant, thereby allowing the cardholder to take remedial action.

A method for application-specific chargeback of content cached at a wireless tower of a RAN includes receiving a request for content from an end user device in a base station of a RAN and routing the request to an application in a packet switched data communications network from the base station by way of a CN. Content from the application can be received in the base station within a response to the request, the response can be cached in a local cache of the base station in connection with the application and the response can be forwarded to the end user device. Subsequently, in response to a new request for the content received in the base station, the content can be served in a response from the local cache. Further, an identity of the application can be transmitted to a remote charging service external to the base station but within the RAN for charging the application in consequence of having served the content from the local cache of the base station.

A method and system for processing a credit request from a credit / charge cardholder which automatically applies a rules-based decision process to determine whether to credit the cardholder's account, the amount of the credit, whether to do a chargeback to the merchant, and the amount of the chargeback. Individual issuing banks who issue credit / charge cards and individual merchants may specify custom rules which must be considered before a credit is issued and / or before a chargeback to the merchant is performed. The rules set forth the conditions under which the merchant will waive its right to prove the disputed transaction such that a chargeback is automatically issued to the merchant. For example, a merchant may specify that if the transaction is $20 or less, it will accept an automatic chargeback without the merchant's involvement and if the transaction is greater than $20, the merchant wants to receive notice of the dispute and the opportunity to prove or verify the authenticity of the transaction. In one aspect, the system may optionally include the blocking of calls based upon a list of potential callers from whom further transactions or requests for chargeback will be declined. The callers ANI or calling number identification is compared against the list, and the calls are not answered by the system.
