Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for tokenless authentication of a paying consumer during a payment transaction uses a computing device having a processor and a memory. The method includes receiving a plurality of biometric data sets for a plurality of consumers. Each biometric data set includes at least a biometric image of a consumer and an associated payment account identifier. The method also includes receiving, from a first biometric input device communicatively coupled to the processor, a first biometric image of the paying consumer including an iris image. The method further includes determining a payment account associated with the paying consumer based on at least the first biometric image and the plurality of biometric data sets. The method also includes authenticating use of the payment account by the paying consumer for a payment transaction at the retail location by comparing the first biometric image to the plurality of biometric data sets.

Abstract:
A method and system for determining a status of a visitor to a physical location and associated with a handheld device using a computer device coupled to a database are provided. The method includes receiving, by the processor, a hello message from a radio associated with one or more handheld devices, capturing a unique identifier of the handheld device from the received hello message, determining visitor geographic information based on the captured unique identifier and a determined signal strength of the hello message, and outputting the visitor information.

Abstract:
An authenticating computing device for authenticating a user of a user computing device as a human being. The authenticating computing device comprises a processor configured to receive a request to authenticate a user as human and an identifier associated with at least one of the user and the user computing device. The processor is further configured to retrieve transaction data associated with a payment card account of the user based on the identifier, generate a challenge question based on the transaction data, and generate a plurality of images based on the transaction data. At least one of the plurality of images is a correct image and at least one of the plurality of images is an incorrect image. The processor is further configured to transmit the challenge question and the plurality of images for display on the user computing device.
Abstract:
At a photo server, a payment card account number is obtained from a cardholder. At the photo server, access is obtained to a database of payment card transaction information, using the payment card account number. At least one digital photo is putatively matched to a location of at least one transaction for the payment card account number in the database of transaction information, based on at least one of time stamp and geolocation, to obtain a first putative match. An indication of the first putative match is provided to the cardholder.

Abstract:
A method for generating a social network message linked to a payment transaction includes: storing a plurality of consumer profiles, each profile including data related to a consumer including a consumer identifier, social network identifier, device identifier, and preferences; receiving an authorization request for a payment transaction, the request including transaction data and a specific consumer identifier; identifying a specific consumer profile wherein the included consumer identifier corresponds to the specific consumer identifier; generating a social network message, the message including the transaction data and the social network identifier included in the specific consumer profile and generated pursuant to the preferences included in the specific consumer profile; transmitting the social network message to a computing device corresponding to the device identifier included in the specific consumer profile; receiving an indication of approval of the social network message; and transmitting the social network message to a social network for publishing.
