Abstract
Systems and methods for authenticating a user are disclosed. An example method may be performed by one or more processors of a system and include generating an encoded identification tag including identification information associated with a user's account, embedding the encoded identification tag in a transaction description associated with a payment from the user, receiving a request to access the user's account, retrieving an existing identification tag from the transaction description, generating a decoded identification tag from the existing identification tag, determining whether information retrieved from the decoded identification tag matches the identification information, and granting the request to access the user's account if at least a portion of the information retrieved from the decoded identification tag matches the identification information or denying the request to access the user's account if the information retrieved from the decoded identification tag does not match at least a portion of the identification information.
