Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for managing financial payments between parties using an electronic payment computing device is provided. The method includes receiving a payee debit account identifier from a payee computing device, the payee debit account identifier associated with a payee debit account; creating a payee user account using the payee debit account identifier, wherein the payee user account is linked to the payee debit account; receiving a first payment request from the payee computing device requesting payment from a payor; generating a unique link for accessing a payment page associated with the first payment request; transmitting a second payment request to a payor computing device, wherein the second payment request includes the unique link; receiving a payment response from the payor computing device authorizing payment from a payor debit account to the payee; and prompting a transfer of funds from the payor debit account to the payee debit account.
Abstract:
Systems, apparatus, methods, and computer program products are provided for determining a user's authentication requirements/credentials for function requiring authentication based on determining a location along an authentication continuum. The location along the authentication continuum defines the degree of authentication/credentials required to access the function and is determined based on a current state of the user and/or function attributes. The more or less that is known about the current state of the user the more or less likely the user is the user that is attempting to access the function and, thus, the authentication requirements required to access the function can be adjusted according (increased or decreased).
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for prompting categorization during payment authorization. The system includes a computer apparatus including a processor and a memory; and a software module stored in the memory. The software module includes executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor receive an authorization request for a transaction being conducted by a user; prompt the user to categorize at least one component of the transaction; receive a category from the user for the at least one component of the transaction; and store the category in association with the transaction. In some embodiments, the system will not authorize the transaction until the user categorizes at least one component of the transaction. In further embodiments, the system evaluates the transaction and only prompts the user to categorize the transaction if predefined criteria are met.

Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention include systems, methods, and computer-program products for scheduling and affecting appointment calendaring based on perceived user requirements. As such, the invention provides for a smart appointment calendaring based on the automatic and real time analysis of a user's financial information, transaction history, navigation history and the like. The system then identifies one or more relevant specialists and schedules one or more appointments. Based on needs identified from analysis of user information, the invention may create an appointment package for the user. Thus, the system may schedule appointments with one or more specialists based on the user's requirements.
Abstract:
The present invention includes a system for authenticating a second action based on a first action, wherein the system is configured to: receive a first request to execute a first action associated with a first application; determine that execution of the first action requires user authentication; request one or more authentication credentials from the user; receive a first authentication credential associated with the first action; validate the first authentication credential, thereby resulting in a successful validation of the received first authentication credential; in response to the successful validation, execute the first action; receive a second request to execute a second action associated with a second application; determine that execution of the second action requires user authentication; use the successful validation of the first authentication credential to validate a second authentication credential so that the second action may be executed.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, computer program products, and methods for modifying an estimated financial plan based on customer input. Embodiments access an estimated retirement plan comprising an estimated retirement date and an estimated retirement dollar amount; determine an estimated retirement plan confidence score; identify one or more external customer accounts; access one or more internal customer accounts; determine, based at least in part on the one or more external customer accounts and the one or more internal customer accounts, at least one likely customer account; present an inquiry to the customer requesting confirmation that the customer owns an additional customer account corresponding to the at least one likely customer account; and receive confirmation from the customer that the customer owns an additional customer account corresponding to the at least one likely customer account.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, computer program products, and methods for generating a one-click financial plan for a customer of a financial institution. Embodiments determine a set of outflow data comprising data corresponding to debits originating from accounts owned by the customer; determine a set of inflow data comprising data corresponding to credits applied to accounts owned by the customer; determine a set of customer information comprising a customer age; based on some of the plurality of debits, identify external customer accounts; based on the identified external customer accounts, determine characteristics associated with each of the external customer accounts; calculate, based on the customer age, the set of inflow data and the set of outflow data, an estimated retirement plan comprising an estimated retirement date and an estimated retirement dollar amount; and present retirement information based on the estimated retirement plan to the customer.
Abstract:
