A provider computing system associated with a provider institution includes a network interface configured to communicate data over a network, and a processing circuit. The processing circuit is configured to receive, by the network interface, image data from a user computing device associated with a user, the image data pertaining to a bill of a user issued by a payee, scan the user computing device for tokens, transform the image data from a non-standardized format into computer-readable data, extract a data structure from the computer-readable data based on identified data from the bill of the user, identify the payee from the payee database based on determining a match level meets a threshold, and add the payee to an account of the user to enable authorization of a payment to the payee via the user computing device.

Systems and methods for payee identification via camera

A computer system includes a token repository configured to store payment tokens, and a server system. The server system includes a processor and instructions stored in non-transitory machine-readable media, the instructions configured to cause the server system to receive a request to provision a payment token based on a financial product, wherein the request includes information related to the financial product, provision a payment token based on the token request, including authenticating the financial product based on the financial product information and generating the payment token upon authenticating the financial product, wherein the payment token is useable to make a payment via the financial product, and store the payment token in the token repository.

Token management system

Systems and methods for using an information wallet system to deliver a gift and receive, redeem, or re-gift the gift are disclosed. The information wallet system's storage is securely maintained by a financial institution computing system (i.e. a bank) and receives and holds purchase transaction information. Purchase information transaction may be received from a user computing device or an entity computing system, such as a merchant computing system. In one embodiment, a user may purchase a gift through an online website or at a brick and mortar location and direct the gift to be deposited into the information wallet storage of a recipient. A recipient may then continue to hold the gift, redeem the gift, or re-gift the gift to another party.

Systems and methods for transferring a gift using an information storage and communication system

A system includes a processor and an information wallet application stored on machine readable storage media coupled to the processor and including program logic that causes the processor to receive a shopping list from a first information wallet adapter stored on a user computing device, send the shopping list to a second information wallet adapter stored on a merchant computing device, receive merchant data from the second information wallet adapter, wherein the merchant data includes one of price data and quantity data for at least one item included in the shopping list, and send the merchant data to the first information wallet adapter. The system also includes a cloud storage computing system accessible by the information wallet storage application and configured to communicate with the first and second information wallet adapters in order to store and retrieve shopping list data associated with the shopping list.

Systems and methods for managing lists using an information storage and communication system

A computer-implemented method includes receiving, from a mobile device, a deposit request including a first check image for funds to be deposited into a user account, determining a risk level associated with the deposit request, requesting a second check image having a restricted endorsement based on the risk level, receiving the second check image having the restricted endorsement, determining a confidence level based on the restricted endorsement, and transferring the funds to the user account based on the confidence level.

System and method for mobile check deposit with restricted endorsement

A computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a depository computing system, a check deposit for a first amount associated with a payee account of a payee, determining, by the depository computing system, the check deposit is an on-us transfer based on verifying that the payee account and a payor account of a payor are associated with a same financial institution, and posting, by the depository computing system in real time, the first amount to both the payee account and the payor account prior to settlement of the check deposit.

Interbank account verification and funds transfer system and method

The disclosed embodiments include a provided application executing on a mobile device of a payer, which receives a first image associated with a paper invoice and a first inputted payment amount, prompts the payor to capture a second image of the paper invoice, receives the second image and a second inputted payment amount, receives a selection of an account associated with the payor, and transmits to a server system the second inputted payment amount, an identification of the account, and image data, the image data comprises at least one of the second image or a portion of the second image. The server system identifies a payee of the paper invoice based on the image data, and causes funds to be provided to a payee account associated with the identified payee from the payment account in an amount based on the payment amount.

Systems and methods for authenticating parties and transactions are described herein. The systems and methods may be part of an information wallet system. The information wallet system or a separate authentication system in communication with the information wallet system may facilitate verification and/or authentication of the parties. In one embodiment, the authentication system includes an authentication server configured to receive an authentication request from a first party to authenticate a second party. The authentication server is further configured to transmit an information request the second party. The authentication server is configured to receive second party information and to configured to compare the second party information with a verified second party information. The authentication server is configured to transmit an authentication result to the first party device.

User and entity authentication through an information storage and communication system

A computing system includes an account associated with a user of the system, and a server. One or more processors are configured to receive user information from a user computing device, wherein the user information is related to a user of the account, determine, based on the user information, one or more user settings preferences related to a second computing device, receive an information request, wherein the information request includes a request to send the one or more user settings preferences to the second computing device, and to send the one or more user settings preferences to the second computing device, wherein the one or more user settings preferences are useable by the second computing device to adjust one or more settings of the second computing device.

Systems and methods for providing user preferences for a connected device

A provider computing system associated with a provider institution includes a network interface configured to communicate data over a network, and a processing circuit. The processing circuit is configured to receive, by the network interface, image data from a user computing device associated with a user, the image data pertaining to a bill of a user issued by a payee, extract a first structure of computer-readable data from the image data, associate a first payee identification parameter with the first structure, determine that the first structure is stored in association with a verified payee at a payee database based on the first payee identification parameter, and based on determining that the first structure is stored in association with the verified payee, update an account of the user to enable the user to utilize the user computing device to authorize a payment to the payee.
