A contactless card with power harvesting unit is described. The power harvesting unit is configured to harvest power from near field communication radio wave fields and supply power to a memory, processor, and communication circuit of the contactless card. In some embodiments, the contactless card may also include a capacitor for smoothing out power deliver or a rechargeable battery. The contactless card is configured to establish two-way communication with a secondary device and to store and execute applets. In some embodiments, the contactless card is a payment card which contains information associated with a primary profile and a secondary profile. The secondary profile may be activated using two-way communication if the primary profile is deactivated due to fraudulent activity.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media relate to smartcard biometric enrollment. In an embodiment that does not require a user to visit a central location to provide fingerprint images, an activation code corresponding to a unique ID that uniquely identifies a user of a service is generated and sent to the user. In response, at least one finger image is received from a user device. The image is processed to isolate a fingerprint image, which is used to generate a biometric template that is sent to a smartcard manufacturer and used to configure a smartcard for biometric authentication of the user. In another embodiment, a kiosk/ATM provides smartcard biometric enrollment by detecting a smartcard in the smartcard reader, verifying an ID of a user associated with the smartcard, capturing a biometric image from the user, processing the biometric image to generate a biometric template, and storing the biometric template on the smartcard.

The present invention relates to virtual code-based control system, method and program, a control device and a control signal generating means. A control method on the basis of a control signal comprising a virtual code according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a control signal receiving step for a control module receiving, from a control signal generating means, a control signal generated by means of combining a plurality of specific codes in accordance with a particular rule; a step for the control module extracting the plurality of specific codes comprised in the virtual code; and a command searching step for the control module searching for a storage location comprising a particular command on the basis of the plurality of specific codes.

Provided is an electronic cash-based offline transaction method and system. The method includes: receiving, by a back-end server from a smart card, an anti-replay factor generated by the smart card; determining, by the back-end server in accordance with a predetermined algorithm, whether an abnormal transaction occurs on the smart card, generating, by the back-end server when no abnormal transaction occurs, a security information signature by signing security information with a private key of the back-end server, and transmitting, by the back-end server, the security information and the security information signature to the smart card (S2).

Systems, methods, articles of manufacture, and computer-readable media. A computing device may wirelessly receive a network address for a resource from a contactless card that is in an inactivated payment state. A web browser executing on the computing device may access the resource at the network address. The resource in the web browser may operate a card reader of the computing device to receive a cryptogram from the contactless card. The resource in the web browser may transmit the cryptogram to a server. The resource in the web browser may receive, from the server, a response specifying that the contactless card has been transitioned from the inactivated payment state to an activated payment state.

Systems and methods involving a temporary card as well as features and functionality of an associated server and/or application resident on a computing device are disclosed. In one embodiment, an exemplary system may comprise a temporary card provided to a user to conduct purchase transactions for a period of temporary use as well as a server configured to manage operation of the temporary card and execute instructions causing the server to: communicate with an app resident on a computing device associated with the user, instruct the app to generate one or more graphical user interfaces (GUIs) configured to display first interactive GUI elements with first user-selection(s) and second interactive GUI elements with second user-selection(s), and/or control the temporary card based on the first and second user-selections.

A system for providing notifications to client devices that includes one or more processors and one or more storage devices. The storage devices may store instructions that, when executed, configure the processors to perform operations. The operations include receiving a transaction notification from a third party; identifying a user account associated with the transaction notification; generating a push notification with a payload describing instructions to display a message and an interactive icon, and a resource identifier associated with the interactive icon, where the resource identifier includes a message ID encoding an interactive session and an action ID encoding a requested action. The operations also include transmitting the push notification to a client device associated with the user account; receiving a first indication indicating a user interaction with the interactive icon, the first indication having the resource identifier and updating the user account based on the action request.

System and methods perform identity freezing. A user input requesting halting of operations related to a plurality of accounts or profiles of the user at different local systems is received. In response, a token mapping database is accessed to identify a personally identifiable information (PII) token for the user. A freeze message with the PII token is transmitted to the different local systems to halt operations associated with the plurality of accounts or profiles of the user. Thereafter, at the different local systems, the operations associated with the plurality of accounts or profiles of the user are halted to freeze an identity of the user. More efficient communication and operations to freeze the user accounts and profiles thereby result.

A device may receive an authorization request, associated with a transaction made by a user device as part of a checkout procedure of a website, that includes a virtual transaction card identifier of a virtual transaction card that is being used for the transaction, and a first merchant identifier for a merchant associated with the website. The device may perform a first authorization procedure to determine whether the first merchant identifier, included in the authorization request, satisfies a threshold level of similarity with a second merchant identifier associated with a request to generate the virtual transaction card that occurred prior to receiving the authorization request. The device may determine whether to forego a second authorization procedure based on a result of the first authorization procedure, and cause an authorization response, that includes an indication of whether the transaction is approved, to be provided to another device associated with the merchant.
