A method for handoff includes: scanning an indirect token displayed on a guest device, where a guest has previously registered a payment instrument with a server, and associated the payment instrument with a plurality of indirect tokens, and the server has stored a payment token that associates the plurality of indirect tokens with the payment instrument in a database record along with a notification identifier; transmitting the ephemeral token to the server; simultaneously displaying details for a transaction, where the server has accessed the notification identifier to transmit a push notification to the guest device, and where the guest device is executing a proprietary application that allows for simultaneously displaying details for the transaction; and receiving notification from the server that the transaction is complete, where transaction completion data was entered via the guest device and transmitted to the server.

A method for transaction handoff includes: registering a payment instrument with a server, associating the payment instrument with indirect tokens, and storing a payment token that associates the indirect tokens with the payment instrument and a device identifier in a database record; via a device, receiving an indirect token from the server; via a point-of-sale (POS) terminal, entering the indirect token, and transmitting indirect token via the internet cloud to the server; via the server, using the payment token to access the device identifier and transmitting a push notification; upon acceptance of the push notification, executing an application on the device and simultaneously displaying transaction details on both the device and POS terminal; receiving completion data that is entered via the device and transmitting the completion data to the server; and completing the transaction at the server and notifying the POS terminal and the device that the transaction is complete.

A system for automated origination of capital includes a rate processor, a revenue forecaster, and an offer processor. The rate processor generates prices for capital product offers to subscribers of a point-of-sale (POS) subscription service, where the prices are generated by employing probability of default (PD) values that are derived from historical POS data corresponding to each of the subscribers. The revenue forecaster employs the historical POS data to predict future POS data for establishments corresponding to the each of the subscribers and employs the future POS data to generate predicted total revenues corresponding to the each of the subscribers over a payback period. The offer processor generates and transmits the capital product offers corresponding to the each of the subscribers, where the capital product offers comprise the payback period, the prices, and maximum dollar amounts that are a percentage of the predicted total revenues.

System for automated origination of capital based on point-of-sale data

A server includes: a database that registers a payment instrument, associates the instrument with ephemeral tokens, and stores a payment token that associates the ephemeral tokens with the instrument in a record along with an identifier for a device; a communication circuit, that receives transaction details from a POS terminal, transmits one of the ephemeral tokens to the device, and receives the one of the ephemeral tokens from the POS terminal; and a code segment, that employs the payment token to access the identifier in the record, directs the communication circuit to send a push notification, and, upon execution of the proprietary application on the device, directs the communication circuit to transmit transaction details to the POS terminal and the device, receives transaction data from the device, completes the transaction, and directs the communication circuit to notify the POS terminal that the transaction is complete.

Server for transaction handoff and completion employing indirect token

A method for increasing a transaction amount corresponding a patron of an establishment, the method including: receiving inputs comprising transaction data corresponding to a transaction, where a portion of the transaction data comprises personally identifiable information (PII), and extracting the PII from the portion of the transaction data, and employing the PII to generate PII transaction data and metadata corresponding to the transaction; analyzing the PII transaction data and the metadata to generate a single universal guest record (UGR) corresponding to the PII transaction data and the metadata, where the single UGR corresponds to the patron, the single UGR comprising UGR transaction metadata corresponding to the transaction and historical transactions associated with the patron; statistically analyzing the UGR metadata to generate a guest segmentation record that corresponds to the patron; and generating content for display on point-of-sale (POS) terminals associated with the establishment, where the content is directed toward increasing an amount of the transaction.

Multichannel system for patron identification and dynamic ordering experience enhancement

A system for automated origination of capital client engagement is provided. The system includes a rate processor, a revenue forecaster, and an offer processor. The rate processor is configured to perform a binary logistic regression on subscriber data and metrics derived from historical POS data corresponding to subscribers of a point-of-sale (POS) subscription service to generate logistic regression coefficients that are used to calculate probability of default (PD) values for each of the subscribers, and configured to employ new subscriber data and metrics to generate updated PD values for the each of the subscribers. The revenue forecaster is coupled to the rate processor and is configured to employ the historical POS data to predict future POS data for establishments corresponding to the each of the subscribers, and to employ the future POS data to generate predicted total revenues corresponding to the each of the subscribers over a payback period, and configured to employ new POS data to generate updated predicted total revenues corresponding to the each of the subscribers. The offer processor is configured to compare the updated predicted total revenues with the predicted total revenues and the updated PD values with the PD values, and configured to automatically generate and transmit engagement instructions for establishments that have received a capital product offer and whose updated PD has increased by more than a threshold amount over the PD.
