Saadat’s patent, “Facilitating Payments for Merchants That Use Multiple Payment Service Providers,” describes a way to coordinate payment services across a merchant’s providers. The system can establish an on-file grant for a first provider, associate a second provider with the merchant, and store that relationship as a group association. When a transaction is submitted through the second provider, the system can use the association to determine whether an identifier linked to the user’s account is available for the transaction. It can then establish a second on-file grant and return an approval indicating that the identifier may be used for payment.
