A computer-implemented method for applying enrichment services hosted on a second interchange network to a payment transaction initiated over a first interchange network is provided. A transfer process module hosted on the first interchange network receives a first service request from a requestor, formatted in accordance with a first set of proprietary communications standards associated with the first payment network, and transforms the first service request to a second service request formatted in accordance with a second set of proprietary communications standards associated with the second payment network. An enrichment services computer system hosted on the second interchange network receives the second service request and generates a first service response formatted in accordance with the first set of proprietary communications standards. The first service response is transformed at the transfer process module to create a second service response formatted in accordance with the second set of proprietary communications standards.

Systems and methods for processing off-network transaction messages

A computer-implemented method for applying payment services to a payment transaction over a first payment network using a payment services computer system hosted on a second payment network is provided. The method includes receiving a service request at the payment services computer system from a requestor. The service request has a first format that is readable by the second payment network. The method includes determining, at the payment services computer system, the payment services the service request is registered to receive. The method includes processing the service request by applying the registered payment services to the service request. The method includes generating, at the payment services computer system, a services response. The services response is generated based on the registered payment services and the payment transaction data. The method additionally includes transmitting the services response to at least one of the cardholder and the requestor.

Computer systems and methods for identifying a potentially fraudulent payment card transaction in progress, and mitigating losses arising from completion of a fraudulent payment card transaction are provided. The computer system is programmed to receive an authorization request message for authorization of a payment card-initiated transaction, when the transaction is initiated using a payment card that includes a first security device operable for transactions initiated within a predefined geographic region and a second security device operable for transactions initiated both within the predefined geographic region and outside of the predefined geographic region. When the transaction is initiated outside the predefined geographic region, the computer system compares data on the payment card to stored data corresponding to a plurality of payment cards previously-approved for transactions outside of the predefined geographic region approval, and applies one or more sets of rules to the transaction as appropriate.
