An entity may generate digital account credentials when a new account is approved for generation by an authorizing entity that controls or issues new accounts. A user may contact an authorizing entity to open a new account with the authorizing entity. The authorizing entity may authenticate the user and may approve a new account to be generated for the user. The user may wish to conduct transactions immediately upon approval. However, the authorizing entity may not immediately generate a physical identification device along with an actual account identifier associated with the new account. An intermediary entity may generate digital account credentials for the new account immediately after the authorizing entity approves generation of the new account, provide the digital account credentials to the account holder, and process transactions using the digital account credentials.

Digital instant issuance with instant processing

A phone-based electronic wallet providing authenticated transactions across multiple channels of commerce. The electronic wallet may be used for point-of-sale payments, remote mobile payments and/or web-based payments, and may use authentication tools such as offline PINs, SecureCode PINs and/or online PINs.

Multi-commerce channel wallet for authenticated transactions

Payments assurance methods and systems are described. In some embodiments, a Proxy Service Manager Server computer receives a consumer authentication request from a merchant device, and transmits that request to an Authentication Service Manager Server computer. The Proxy Service Manager Server computer then receives a non-repudiable accountholder authentication value ('AAV') token, generates a payment authorization request that includes the AAV token, and transmits the payment authorization request to an Acquirer financial institution (FI) Server computer. The Proxy Service Manager Server computer is then operable to receive a payment authorization message, and to transmit the payment authorization message to the merchant device to enable a merchant to complete a purchase transaction with a consumer.

Methods and systems for payments assurance

A method includes receiving transaction information at a mobile device from a merchant device. The transaction information includes a transaction amount and merchant information that identifies a merchant that operates the merchant device. The method further includes generating a funds transfer request in the mobile device. The funds transfer request includes the merchant information, information that indicates the transaction amount and information that identifies a customer of the merchant. The funds transfer request is for requesting that funds be transferred from a payment card account that belongs to the customer to a payment card account that belongs to the merchant. The method also includes transmitting, from the mobile device, the funds transfer request, to a financial institution that issued the customer's payment card account.

System for personalized payments via mobile devices

A method and system for processing a financial transaction using a co-brand proprietary payment card through a multi-party payment card interchange network is provided. The method includes storing within a database a list of merchants participating in a co-brand program with the interchange network, receiving an authorization request for the transaction involving the co-brand payment card wherein the authorization request includes a merchant identifier, determining whether the transaction originated at one of the participating merchants by comparing the received merchant identifier to the list of participating merchants stored within the database, manipulating the authorization request to include a private label identifier when the transaction is determined to have originated at one of the participating merchants, and transmitting an authorization response from the interchange network to the acquirer. The authorization response includes the private label identifier and designates the transaction for processing as a private label transaction.

Methods and systems for managing co-brand proprietary financial transaction processing

A method and system for processing a financial transaction using a payment card through a third-party interchange network is provided. The financial transaction is initiated by a cardholder at a merchant location. The method includes storing a list of private label participating merchants, receiving an authorization request for the transaction involving the payment card wherein the authorization request includes a merchant location identifier for the merchant location where the transaction occurred, performing a merchant screening process on the transaction including validating the transaction as originating at a private label participating merchant location, manipulating at the interchange network the authorization request to include a private label identifier when the transaction is determined to have originated at one of the participating merchants, and transmitting the manipulated authorization request with the private label identifier to an issuer of the payment card for processing as a private label transaction.

Methods and systems for managing merchant screening

A method and system for processing a merchant identification request from a private label payment card issuer is provided. The issuer is communicatively coupled to a multi-party payment card interchange that includes access to a database. The database stores a plurality of historical multi-party payment card transactions. The method includes transmitting a list of private label merchant locations from the issuer to the interchange wherein the list includes physical location information relating to the private label merchants listed, processing the list at the interchange by applying thereto an identification analysis including one of merchant matching only, test transaction only, and merchant matching plus test transaction, identifying at least one private label merchant location included within the list including associating a unique identifier with the at least one identified private label merchant location, and outputting the at least one identified private label merchant location with the associated unique identifier.

Methods and systems for managing merchant identifiers

A mobile device includes an antenna and at least one control device coupled to the antenna. The at least one control device is selectively operable in a first mode and in a second mode. In the first mode, the at least one control device transmits a payment card account number via the antenna to a point of sale terminal. In the second mode, the at least one control device transmits a message to the point of sale terminal via the antenna to request that the point of sale terminal download transaction information to the mobile device.
