Systems and methods relating to a lockbox bank for currency drop-offs are provided. A lockbox bank includes one or more lockboxes, a safe coupled to the one or more lockboxes, and a terminal of a lockbox computing system. Each lockbox includes a receptacle configured to receive a currency drop-off and a locking mechanism. The terminal includes a network interface, a display device, one or more input/output devices, and a processing circuit including a processor and a memory. The memory is structured to store instructions that are executable by the processor and cause the processing circuit to receive a request from the customer to use a lockbox for a currency drop-off, receive access credentials, verify the access credentials, in response to successful verification, grant the customer access to a lockbox, and in response to determining that the drop-off has been completed, move the drop-off from the receptacle to the safe.

Systems and methods for a night drop system

A provider computing system includes a processing circuit comprising one or more processors coupled to one or more memories having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to receive an indication from a user device that an automated teller machine (ATM) is compromised. The instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the one or more processors to generate, upon receiving the indication that the ATM is compromised, a reward message including a reward for reporting the ATM as being compromised. The instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the one or more processors to transmit the reward message to the user device.

Systems and methods for detecting compromised ATMs

A method includes receiving a request to open an account associated with a customer, information regarding the account, and a mobile device identifier. The mobile device identifier is received from a third-party computing system based on a first wireless communication between the mobile device and the third-party computing system. The method includes validating the mobile device as belonging to the customer based on the received mobile device identifier and binding the mobile device identifier to the customer based on the validation. The method includes establishing the account for the customer based on the received information regarding the account and generating a token for the account. In response to establishing the account and generating the token, the token is provided to the third-party computing system and provisioned to the validated mobile device via a second wireless communication between the mobile device and the third-party computing system.

A system includes a portable locker configured to contain contents and a remote server. The portable locker is configured to prevent access to the contents until the portable locker arrives at a preset destination from a starting location and notify a remote server in response to a determination that the portable locker is not within a threshold range of a user device during transit to the predefined destination.

Portable locker and docking station system

Systems and methods for mutual authentication of a user and a container administrator computer system. A container administrator computer system receives a request from a mobile computing device for a user to access a secure container. The request includes a user identifier. The administrator system receives a first authentication factor corresponding to the user. The administrator system authenticates the user by verifying that the first authentication factor matches a first reference authentication factor associated with the user identifier. The administrator system sends a second authentication factor associated with the administrator system to a human-machine interface associated with the secure container or the mobile computing device. The administrator system receives a notification of authentication of the administrator system using the authentication factor. The administrator system transmits an unlock signal to unlock the secure container.

Secure container mutual authentication

Examples described herein relate to apparatuses and methods of providing automated teller machine (ATM) status notifications. A method includes detecting a signal near an ATM, determining that the signal is indicative of the ATM being comprised, calculating a compromise score based at least on the determination that the signal is indicative of the ATM being compromised, and displaying an image on a user interface of the user device in a manner that reflects the compromise score.

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for executing a transaction via a locker. A seller is provided initial access to the locker to deposit a good in the locker. The seller deposits the good in the locker. Following the seller depositing the good in the locker, the seller's access is revoked, and the buyer is provided access to the locker. The buyer may then arrive at the locker and provide authentication information to an authentication device. When the buyer is authenticated, the locker door (with the good inside the locker) is unlocked. The buyer can then inspect and accept the good. When the good is accepted, funds may be transferred from an account associated with the buyer to an account associated with the seller.

A method implemented on a visual computing device to authenticate one or more users includes receiving a first three-dimensional pattern from a user. The first three-dimensional pattern is sent to a server computer. At a time of user authentication, a second three-dimensional pattern is received from the user. The second three-dimensional pattern is sent to the server computer. An indication is received from the server computer as to whether the first three-dimensional pattern matches the second three-dimensional pattern within a margin of error. When the first three-dimensional pattern matches the second three-dimensional pattern within the margin of error, the user is authenticated at the server computer. When the first three-dimensional pattern does not match the second three-dimensional pattern within the margin of error, user is prevented from being authenticated at the server computer.
