In some examples, an account is provisioned onto an electronic device. In some examples, the device receives a value to fund the account provisioned on the electronic device. In some examples, the electronic device transacts with a contactless transaction terminal using the provisioned account and displays an indication of the transaction. In some examples, the electronic device transmits information corresponding to the provisioned account without checking for authentication. In some examples, the device receives user input initiating a process for moving the account from a first device to a second device. In some examples, the device receives account payment credentials from a second device when a set of payment criteria are met.

A method includes a marketplace server establishing one or more security parameters for an exchange item and securely providing the one or more security parameters to a user computing device of the data communication system. When the user computing device desires to use the exchange item, the method further includes generating, by the user computing device, first dynamically secure exchange item data. The method further includes the marketplace server receiving the first dynamically secure exchange item data from the user computing device, generating second dynamically secure exchange item data, and comparing the first dynamically secure exchange item data with the second dynamically secure exchange item data. When the first dynamically secure exchange item data substantially matches the second dynamically secure exchange item data, the method further includes authorizing, by the marketplace server, the use of the exchange item by the user computing device.

Systems, methods, platforms, and devices that generate, store, transact, transfer, exchange, and/or otherwise process digital tokens are described. In embodiments, systems, methods, platforms, and devices obtain an identifier for an item that includes a set of item attributes, generate a digital token including a set of digital attributes that correspond to the set of item attributes, and cryptographically link the digital token to one or more units of the item. The digital token may be transferred, exchanged, redeemed, or otherwise transacted, which provides both the flexibility and convenience of virtual item transactions and the reliability and value of physical item transactions.

System allowing the use of more traditional Coin Operated Amusement Devices (COADs) into a deeply regulated a casino environment. Software monitors each individual game's performance allowing its computer player data to be reformulated for use in a cash-based rewards casino environment. Each COAD is outfitted with a Control Device (CD) that operates independently from the COAD to recalculate an amusement/redemption machines ticket/prize rewards and reformulate the existing rewards data into a cash-based reward meeting specific regulatory mandated requirements. The CD will receive all patron monetary, play and win data thru any one of the COADs analog, RS 232, MDB, CCTalk port configurations and reprocess that data in digital format resulting in a cash-based reward. The CD device will independently communicate each COAD's player results directly to the server(s) as well as simultaneously allowing the processing and recalculation of all monetary transactions between the player and the COAD.

SOME IMPLEMENTATIONS OF THE DISCLOSED SYSTEMS, APPARATUS, METHODS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS ARE CONFIGURED FOR IMPLEMENTING END-TO-END PROCESSING OF STORED-VALUE CARDS.
