System for resource distribution within an offline environment

Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for resource distribution within an offline environment. A merchant device internally stores a repository of reference codes and managing entity public keys that are paired with managing entity private keys. The user requests an amount of resources for offline exchange from the managing entity system. The managing entity system transmits certain authorization and encryption information to a user device. When the user device receives an exchange prompt from the computing device of the merchant through near field communication, it generates a digital token incorporating layers of content encryption ending with a managing entity's private key. The encrypted token and reference code are transmitted via near field communication to the merchant device. The merchant device matches the reference code to the managing entity public key and decrypts portions of the token with the managing entity public key to acquire the usable exchange information.
