Systems and methods employing a router for electronic transactions

Abstract

A system, including: a non-transitory memory; and one or more hardware processors coupled to the non-transitory memory and configured to read instructions from the non-transitory memory to cause the system to perform operations including: receiving a transaction request from an endpoint device on a network, wherein the endpoint device is registered with a transaction service provider; locating, based on the transaction request, an authorization token corresponding to a payment mechanism, wherein the authorization token is stored to a memory device of the router; in response to receiving the transaction request, transmitting the authorization token to the transaction service provider to retrieve transaction information from the transaction service provider, wherein the transaction information includes payment data for a user of the endpoint device; and transmitting the transaction information to the upstream network location, wherein the upstream network location includes a merchant server.
