Embodiments of this application disclose a payment method, a client, an electronic device, a storage medium, and a server. The method includes: receiving a payment instruction of a user; generating, according to audio information in a voice input of the user, a voice feature vector of the audio information; performing matching between the voice feature vector and a user feature vector; and when the matching succeeds, sending personal information associated with the user feature vector to a server, so that the server performs a payment operation for a resource account associated with the personal information. The method can bring convenience to shopping by a consumer.

Example systems and methods for dynamic identity decisioning include: receiving a request, from a third-party server, to confirm an identity of a user attempting a transaction through a third-party website displayed in a first application window on a user device of the user; causing the user device to display a second application window for presenting an identity decisioning application and at least partially overlapping the first window; assessing a risk level associated with the transaction based on identity verification data retrieved from the user device; and if the risk level exceeds a predetermined threshold, selecting at least one identity authentication exam for presentation to the user via the second window, determining an outcome of the at least one identity authentication exam based on a user response thereto, and determining an identity decisioning result based on the outcome; and presenting the result to the user via the second application window.

Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a payment authorization to a real-time payment (RTP) network to initiate an RTP between a customer financial institution account and a merchant financial institution account. One method performed by a payment facilitator device includes, based on a user device of a customer and a point-of-sale (POS) device of a merchant performing a direct communication regarding a transaction, receiving a payment request for a transaction amount of the transaction and receiving a customer authorization for the transaction. The payment facilitator then provides a payment authorization to an RTP network to initiate an RTP for the transaction amount of the transaction from a customer financial institution account to a merchant financial institution account, based on receiving the customer authorization for the transaction.

Systems and methods for transaction authorization management based on user-defined account restrictions are provided. A financial services device may receive a transaction approval policy including one or more parameters defining account access restrictions. The financial services device may receive attempted purchases from a purchase device and determine, based on the transaction approval policy, whether to authorize or decline the attempted purchases. The financial services device may also be capable of notifying an account-holder about the attempted purchases and receive instructions from the account-holder whether to authorize or decline the attempted purchase.

Described herein is a computing device for applying merchant promotions to a push payment transaction. The computing device includes a processor and a memory. The processor is configured to receive a promotion request message. The promotion request message includes a merchant ID and an initial push payment transaction amount. The processor retrieves, from the memory, a merchant promotion and applies the retrieved merchant promotion to an initial transaction amount to determine an updated transaction amount. The processor then transmits a promotion response message, receives an authorization message and initiates a transfer of funds. The promotion response message includes the merchant ID and the updated transaction amount. The authorization message authorizes the push payment transaction in the updated transaction amount. The funds are transferred in the updated payment amount from the user account with the originating institution to the merchant account at the receiving institution.

A computing system can establish asynchronous network communications with exchanges to facilitate cross-medium transactions between originating and recipient clients. Such communications can result in filtering out errant responses that would otherwise cause an open transaction to fail.
