Abstract
Systems and methods for identifying a user to a merchant include creating a token for the user, the token identifying the user and user information of the user, where creating the token includes generating a string based on a user biometric and hashing the string to generate a hashed string, sending a notification indicating that a merchant requests the user information of the user, sending the token to a user device associated with the user where the token is configured to be activated via the user device before the token is selectively transmitted by the user device, receiving the token from a merchant computing system associated with a merchant, identifying the user and the user information based on the received token, receiving an indication from the user device, and withholding the user information from the merchant computing system based on the indication.
