Solution Overview

Problem

Existing digital wallet systems limit the utilization of completed transaction data to budgeting and tracking, failing to provide expanded uses that would benefit both users and service providers.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a method to dynamically convert previously completed transactions into installment loans or revolving account transactions by analyzing transaction history, user budget, and financial information, using a machine learning engine to offer users the option to flip eligible transactions into installment loans, thereby providing immediate funds and allowing repayment over time.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If completed transaction data is displayed for budgeting and tracking, then users can access financial information, but the utility and engagement of the data is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveutility of transaction dataVSAvoiduser engagement
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically converts static completed transactions into dynamic loan offers by analyzing transaction history, user budget, and financial information. The interface elements are dynamically populated with conversion options based on real-time analysis, transforming unused data into active financial products.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the state of transaction data from completed historical records to convertible loan offers. By analyzing parameters such as transaction amount, user budget status, and financial profile, the system transforms the utility of the data from mere tracking to active funding solutions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If the system converts transactions to installment loans, then users gain access to funds for upcoming payments, but the complexity of the conversion process increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccess to fundsVSAvoidconversion process
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service by automatically analyzing transaction history, user budget, and financial information to generate conversion offers. The machine learning engine autonomously evaluates eligibility and populates interface elements without requiring manual user input or analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary analysis of transaction data and user financial status before presenting conversion options. By pre-processing and evaluating the data in advance, the system prepares conversion offers that are ready for immediate user action, reducing the perceived complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If the interface dynamically displays conversion options, then the likelihood of loan acceptance increases, but the complexity of the interface population increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveloan acceptance rateVSAvoidinterface population
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses feedback from machine learning analysis of user financial behavior and transaction patterns to dynamically adjust interface element population. The analysis continuously refines which transactions are presented for conversion based on user profile and market conditions, optimizing acceptance rates.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces manual interface configuration with automated machine learning-based population of interface elements. Instead of manually programming conversion logic, the system uses AI to intelligently determine which transactions to offer and how to present them, reducing development complexity while improving effectiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

There are provided systems and methods for intelligent population of interface elements for converting transactions. A service provider, such as an online digital wallet provider and/or transaction processor, may provide analysis of a transaction history output through a data display in an application or a website. The service provider may determine whether any past transactions may be converted or flipped from a past outgoing payment to one or more installment loans for all or a portion of the payment. This may be determined using a recommendation engine trained using one or more factors and past data. If a transaction qualifies for an offer to flip the past payment to an installment loan, the service provider may populate one or more interface elements and/or data that allows the user to accept or decline the offer.
