Provided herein are systems and methods for rapid activation of electronic payment devices with a mobile device. The method includes generating, with at least one processor, activation data corresponding to a non-activated electronic payment device issued to a user, storing, on an activation element associated with the electronic payment device, a unique identifier corresponding to the electronic payment device, receiving, with at least one processor, an activation request from a mobile device in response to the user scanning the activation element with the mobile device, the activation request comprising identification data associated with the user and the unique identifier, determining, with at least one processor, that the activation data matches the identification data, and, in response to determining that the activation data matches the identification data, activating the electronic payment device.

System and method for rapid activation and provisioning of an electronic payment device

Provided is a system, method, and computer program product for conducting secure transactions with at least two appliances. The method includes monitoring audio data with a first appliance including a processor, a speaker, and a microphone; detecting, with the first appliance, an audible request to initiate a transaction from a user from the audio data; communicating, with the first appliance, a transaction request to at least one remote server in response to detecting the audible request to initiate the transaction; detecting, with the first appliance, a credential message received by the first appliance directly from a second appliance via an audio transmission, the credential message corresponding to the transaction request and including a limited use key provided to the second appliance from the at least one remote server or another remote server; and in response to detecting the credential message, initiating, with the first appliance, the transaction based on the limited use key.

Conducting secure transactions by detecting credential message with audio between first appliance and second appliance

A system and method of transacting a prepaid product with an electronic mobile device that is used to electronically interface with a code, such as a QR code, bar code, RF signal or NFC signal, representing a prepaid product. The codes of multiple prepaid products of multiple prepaid product providers are grouped together on a single structure or in a single computer displayed in a shopping area. The electronic mobile device subsequently electronically interfaces with a point of sale device after electronically interfacing with said code to provide prepaid product information.

System and method for using intelligent codes in conjunction with stored-value cards

A method is disclosed. A digital assistant device receives a biometric sample from a user and then converts the biometric sample to a biometric template. The digital assistant device can scan for user devices in communication range of the digital assistant device, thereby receiving user device identifiers. The digital assistant device can transmit, to a server computer, an authentication request comprising the biometric template and at least one user device identifier. The digital assistant device can then receive a cryptogram request message comprising the at least one user device identifier, from the server computer. The digital assistant device can transmit, to a user device corresponding to the at least one user device identifier, the cryptogram request message and can then receive a cryptogram. The digital assistant device can then transmit the cryptogram to the server computer. The server computer verifies the cryptogram before further processing of a transaction.

Audible authentication

Electronic stored value cards ('eSVCs') may be susceptible to fraud, theft, or unauthorized access. As eSVCs are still relatively new, the eSVC industry may not have fully developed sufficient safeguards to prevent such fraud, therft, and unauthorized access. Disclosed herein are systems, apparatus, and methods for evaluating whether or not to provide a service, which may include displaying, funding, or authorizing an eSVC. The evaluation may be in response to a request for such a service. The evaluation may be based on a risk due to fraud, theft, or unathorized access.
