Abstract
Extracting card information comprises a server at an optical character recognition ('OCR') system that interprets data from a card. The OCR system performs an optical character recognition algorithm an image of a card and performs a data recognition algorithm on a machine-readable code on the image of the card. The OCR system compares a series of extracted alphanumeric characters obtained via the optical character recognition process to data extracted from the machine-readable code via the data recognition process and matches the alphanumeric series of characters to a particular series of characters extracted from the machine-readable code. The OCR system determines if the alphanumeric series and the matching series of characters extracted from the machine-readable code comprise any discrepancies and corrects the alphanumeric series of characters based on the particular series of characters extracted from the machine-readable code upon a determination that a discrepancy exists.
