摘要:
The present subject matter provided is a “real-time” (versus batch) process that utilizes a financial or insurance institution's customer's personal computer to gather “up-to-the-minute” competitor product premium pricing information that can be used by the customer and the customer's financial or insurance institution for competitive product premium pricing comparison. One way to provide pricing information is to use an aggregation vendor to transmit and receive online pricing information from competitors. Another way to provide pricing information is to use the customer's computer to transmit data and to request a price quote. An applet or other type of software may be loaded onto a computer being used by the customer to facilitate the transmission and reception of pricing information. A central repository may be used to collect and store pricing information to provide online quotes as well as monitor for pricing changes of competitors.

Various mechanisms are provided herein for automated institutional processing of payments. For example, fund can be transferred from one party to another party by transfer of funds from a static account into a dynamically created transaction account. Such a transfer can have additional features, including the refunding of the transfer funds and revocation thereof. According to another example, insurance claims can be automatically processed by transferring funds when claims are filed (with or without evidentiary documents). Such transfers can then be validated afterwards. Thus, when claims are received, they can be quickly examined for the relevant fields, such as claim amount, and then the amount can be disbursed in a matter of minutes after receiving a claim submission. Such disbursement, moreover, can be governed according to various heuristics, including the trustworthiness of claimants and rules regarding maximum disbursement amounts.
