Dynamic Link Verification for Identity Confirmation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current ecommerce and identity verification processes are cumbersome and inefficient, requiring multiple steps and parties, and lack a quick solution for verifying identity or vaccination status in public or private settings.
Innovation Solution
A dynamic-link verification process between an electronic device and a transaction or event, where a mobile device engages with an initiator to auto-populate a text message with metadata, which is sent to a message gateway for verification, utilizing a management service and databases to confirm user identity and other aspects, with approval or denial sent back to the device and event host.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional identity verification processes are used for ecommerce transactions and public facility entry, then verification reliability is maintained through multiple checks and parties, but the process complexity and time required increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple verification functions (identity verification, vaccination status verification, event registration) into a single integrated system. The verification system merges the initiator app on mobile devices with the event host system and database services to create a unified verification process that replaces multiple separate verification steps with one consolidated interaction.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-registering users for events and pre-verifying identities before the actual verification event occurs. When a user presents at an event or transaction point, the verification data is already prepared and stored in the database, allowing instant verification without requiring multiple parties to manually check credentials at the moment of verification.
2Reliability
If traditional multi-party verification systems are implemented, then verification accuracy is improved through multiple checks, but the number of steps and time required increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical verification processes (multiple parties physically checking credentials, signing papers, verbal confirmations) with an automated electronic system. The mobile device initiator app automatically transmits verification data through the message gateway to the event host system, which queries the database and returns verification results electronically, eliminating the need for multiple human intermediaries to manually verify each credential.
3Ease of operation
If a simplified verification process is used, then ease of operation and speed are improved, but the number of verification checks and reliability may be reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary verification system consisting of the message gateway and centralized database service. This intermediary automatically performs comprehensive verification checks by querying pre-stored verification data (identity confirmation, vaccination status, event registration) without requiring the user to manually provide each piece of information or for multiple parties to independently verify credentials. The intermediary system ensures thorough verification while keeping the user experience simple.

AI summary
A system and method for a dynamic-link verification process between an electronic device and a transaction or event. The first step is engagement by a mobile electronic device with an initiator that is linked with a specific verification event that triggers a text message to auto-populate on a mobile electronic device. The message comprising metadata about the user and the event or transaction. The second step is for the electronic device to send the auto-populated message to a message gateway thus initiating the verification of the user. The message gateway works with a management service and one or more databases to verify the identify and other aspects of the user based on instructions provided by the event host. Approval or denial of the transaction or request to gain entry is sent to the mobile device and the event host.
