581 results about "Payment card" patented technology

An ATM card is a payment card or dedicated payment card issued by a financial institution which enables a customer to access automated teller machines (ATMs). ATM cards are payment card size and style plastic cards with a magnetic stripe or a plastic smart card with a chip that contains a unique card number and some security information such as an expiration date or CVVC (CVV). ATM cards are known by a variety of names such as bank card, MAC (money access card), client card, key card or cash card, among others. Most payment cards, such as debit and credit cards can also function as ATM cards, although ATM-only cards are also available. Charge and proprietary cards cannot be used as ATM cards. The use of a credit card to withdraw cash at an ATM is treated differently to a POS transaction, usually attracting interest charges from the date of the cash withdrawal. Interbank networks allow the use of ATM cards at ATMs of private operators and financial institutions other than those of the institution that issued the cards.

Computer-based system for providing touchless transactions at automated teller machines

Techniques are described for providing touchless ATM transactions based on receipt of a pre-staged transaction initiated by an authenticated user via an online banking system of a bank and subsequent receipt of a cryptogram of the user's payment card at an ATM. A server device receives transaction data for the pre-staged transaction from a user computing device via a user interface of an application associated with the online banking system. The server device associates the pre-staged transaction with a bank account including one or more payment cards of the user. The server device later receives a cryptogram of a payment card from an ATM and, based on identification information included in the cryptogram, determines that the payment card at the ATM is one of the payment cards of the bank account associated with the pre-staged transaction. In response, the server device authorizes performance of the pre-staged transaction at the ATM.

Systems and methods for authentication based on personal network

A financial institution computing system includes a network circuit exchanging information over a network, a customer database storing financial information, and a transaction circuit. The transaction circuit receives a transaction request associated with a user computing device. The transaction request specifies a financial account. The transaction circuit receives payment card location information indicative of a location of a payment card with respect to the user computing device. The payment card location information indicates that the payment card is within a threshold distance of the user computing device. The transaction circuit authenticates the transaction request using the payment card location information and by determining whether the payment card is associated with an authorized user of the financial account. The transaction circuit authorizes the transaction request based on whether the transaction request is authenticated and transmits a confirmation to a transaction terminal over the network via the network circuit.

Systems and methods for session-scoped virtual identities bound to compliance jurisdiction tokens

PCT designated stageWO2025210622A2Securing communicationData packPrivacy protection
A system for privacy-preserving communication and compliance enforcement is disclosed. The invention introduces Virtual Identities (VIs) and Virtual Numbers (VNs) cryptographically bound to Compliance Jurisdiction Tokens (CJTs) generated in secure enclaves. Each CJT carries session identifiers, expiry, consent artifacts, and jurisdictional codes covering GDPR (EU), CCPA (US), HIPAA, PSD2, PCI-DSS, FATF AML, the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (India), and the Personal Information Protection Law (China). Forwarding of calls, payments, or data packets is blocked unless VI–CJT validation and ledger anchoring succeed. Unlike tokenization, the system enforces real-time consent revocation, immutable regulator-verifiable audit, cross-border adequacy validation, and dual cryptographic signatures (RSA / ECC with post-quantum upgrade). Industrial use spans telecom, finance, healthcare, e-commerce, SaaS, and IoT, ensuring privacy-by-design and data protection obligations are enforced at protocol level.

Systems and methods of encoding BNPL transactions for terminal devices

Systems, methods, and computer readable media may facilitate buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) transactions at brick-and-mortar locations of merchants that otherwise lack an ability to interface with financial institutions (FIs) that finance BNPL transactions. Likewise, the system may be used to conduct BNPL transactions for merchants that lack an electronic commerce presence. For example, a payment network used to process payment cards such as credit cards may be leveraged to communicate with user devices, merchant point of sale (POS) terminals, and BNPL servers operated by FIs to mediate BNPL transactions. In particular, the payment network may receive, from merchants, a list of items that are eligible for BNPL transactions and installment offers from FIs to pay for BNPL transactions. The payment network may match eligible items with installment offers, select the best installment offers for the buyer, and mediate exchanges between the parties to settle payments for the BNPL transaction.

Processing a payment transaction from a payer (operating a payer computing system) to a payee (operating a merchant computing system) by a secure computing system. The secure computing system outputs a financial account registration request form to the payer computing system (e.g., within a window or frame that is displayed within an ecommerce webpage provided by the merchant computing system) for the payer to provide sensitive financial account information, securely stores the sensitive financial account information, maintains compliance with an information security standard (e.g., a Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard), and provides a non-sensitive electronic data token representing the sensitive financial account information to the merchant computing system. The merchant computing system can then process the payment transaction using the sensitive financial account information represented by the non-sensitive electronic data token without actually receiving—and, therefore, having to secure—the underlying sensitive financial account information.

Identifying transaction processing retry attempts based on machine learning models for transaction success

There are provided systems and methods for identifying transaction processing retry attempts based on machine learning models for transaction success. A service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor for digital transactions, may detect a failure of data processing for a transaction when processed with a separate data processing system, such as a card processing system for payment cards. In order to minimize cost and wasted resources for retrying transactions that are likely to further fail, a machine learning model may be implements that generates a predictive score for whether a failed transaction is likely to be successful if retried with the data processing system. The predictive score may be used to predict a probability of success, which may then be used with a cost function to determine a cost to retry the failed transaction and a cost to stop a retry of the failed transaction.
