Systems, apparatuses, and methods for providing an account token to an external entity during the lifecycle of a payment transaction. In some embodiments, an external entity may be a merchant computer requesting authorization of a payment message. In other embodiments, the external entity may be a support computer providing a payment processing network or a merchant support functions.

Securing external systems with account token substitution

A clearing delay estimate may be employed that provides issuers with an accurate estimate for when a transaction will be cleared, thus providing more transparency to issuers to more efficiently manage funds. An algorithm may be employed to estimate clearance timing information and insert the timing information into communications with the issuer or other parties to a transaction involving a payment device. The estimated clearance timing information may be determined based on machine learning and other artificial intelligence techniques using historical data related to clearance timing for the particular entities involved in each transaction.

Message delay estimation system and method

Systems and methods are described that allow users to continue utilizing their user accounts and user devices associated with a first authorization entity for transactions conducting with a second authorization entity. A processor server computer may translate a first data set including first account identifier and a first verification value associated with a first authorization entity during authorization processing into a second data set including a second account identifier and a second verification value that can be processed by a second authorization entity. The processor server computer may modify an authorization request message based on the translated data set. The processor server computer may also enable the authorization request message to be routed to an appropriate authorization entity during authorization processing.

System for data set translation of accounts

In one aspect, an account identifier is associated with a deal purchased by a user from a deal site. The deal has a face value applicable to a transaction with a predetermined merchant, if the transaction satisfies one or more predetermined criteria. The user pays the deal site an amount smaller than the face value. When the account identifier is used at a transaction terminal to initiate a payment transaction, a transaction handler determines whether the payment transaction satisfies the one or more predetermined criteria; and if so, the transaction handler provides the transaction terminal with an authorization response identifying the remaining balance, which is determined by deducting the face value from the payment transaction. The account identifier may be a one-time account number generated specifically for the deal purchased by the user, or an account number of the user used to purchase the deal from the deal site.

Systems and methods to process payments based on payment deals

A method includes receiving, at a server computer, first a clearing request message, where the clearing request message comprises a transaction identifier; generating a second clearing request message and transmitting the second clearing request message to a first computer, the second clearing request message including a first derived transaction identifier derived from the transaction identifier; and generating a third clearing request message and transmitting the third clearing request message to a second computer, the third clearing request message including a second derived transaction identifier derived from the transaction identifier.

Third party settlement

Systems and methods for transferring resource access from a sender to a recipient are disclosed that can allow a sender to specify an amount of a resource to provide access to (e.g., an amount of money or an amount of access rights), while still providing security for the sender's sensitive credential information (e.g., PAN and/or PIN). These systems and methods can allow a sender to transfer resource access from any location and at any time of the day. In the case of money transfers, the recipient can quickly and directly obtain the money from any ATM location associated with any bank and at any time of the day, even without a bank account.

Systems and methods for transferring resource access

Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for stand-in processing using data driven capabilities. Transaction activity of an issuer may be monitored to detect a major incident and to automatically invoke stand-in processing. By modeling each individual account holder's behavior, improved authorization outcomes may be provided by a payment processing network during stand-in processing.

Processor issuer detection and user level stand-in authorization

Processing of a transaction involving one or more third-parties and offers is described. Certain embodiments allow for suspending a received authorization request message which includes a transaction amount and a token mapped to a primary account number. One or more third-parties may be queried for an offer or discount eligible towards the transaction. The authorization request message may be adjusted to reflect one or more eligible offers from the one or more third-parties. The authorization request message may also be adjusted to replace the token with the mapped PAN. The authorization request message may then be sent to an issuer for further processing.
