A smart card with secure and efficient image capture and analysis is provided. The card may include a non-transitory memory embedded in the housing storing computer-executable instructions. The instructions, when run on the microprocessor, are configured to capture, via the camera, an image of a building (or other suitable image), process the image via an image processing module, determine, based at least in part on the processing of the image, a payment amount and a payment recipient associated with the building. The smart card may also display payment information on the display screen. The payment information may include the payment amount and/or the payment recipient. When authorization is received via a tactile sensor, the card may execute a payment or other communication, over a payment gateway from an account associated with a user of the platform to an account associated with the payment recipient.

Provided is a method for managing a biometric sensor configured to collect a captured biometric data and a secure element able to communicate with the biometric sensor through a communication channel. The method comprises receiving a specific data by the biometric smart card, and checking the specific data by using a control data pre-stored in the biometric smart card. Only if said checking is successful, it then executes an erasing command for removing said reference biometric data from the biometric smart card and a disabling command for permanently deactivating the communication channel.

Systems and methods for authentication may include a first device including a memory, a communication interface, and one or more processors. The memory may include a counter value, transmission data, and at least one key. The one or more processors may be in communication with the memory and communication interface. The one or more processors may be configured to create a cryptogram using the at least one key and counter value, wherein the cryptogram includes the counter value and the transmission data; transmit the cryptogram via the communication interface; update the counter value after cryptogram transmission; receive an encrypted access token via the communication interface; decrypt the encrypted access token; store the decrypted access token in the memory; and transmit, after entry of the communication interface into a communication field, the access token via the communication interface for access to one or more resources, wherein the access token is encrypted.

An automated, dynamic digital financial management tool is described herein. The financial management tool enables a user to access all forms of payments, debt and transactions to be deducted automatically depending on which form of payment is chosen. The financial management tool documents every item/service purchased. The documentation enables a company/manufacturer/store to provide marketing and recall information to the user. The financial management tool is able to include any and/or all financial aspects of a user's life. The financial management tool is able to be implemented using a universal card. The financial management tool is able to include a pay station to receive payments. The financial management tool is able to include automated services.

Example embodiments of systems and methods for data transmission between a contactless card, a client device, and one or more servers are provided. The contactless card may include one or more processors and memory, which may include one or more applets. The client device may include one or more processors and memory. The client device may be in data communication with the contactless card. One or more servers may be in data communication with the client device. A first set of information may be transmitted from the contactless card to the client device. The first set of information may include one or more links to activate the contactless card via a designated email program. Upon validation of the first set of information by the one or more servers, the contactless card may be activated.

A method for managing programs associated with multiple entities on a payment card includes: storing lease profiles, each lease profile including a lease identifier, managing identifier, transaction account numbers, and one or more tenant identifiers; receiving a management request, the management request including a specific lease identifier, specific managing identifier, and requesting tenant identifier; identifying a specific lease profile that includes the specific lease identifier; verifying that the specific managing identifier corresponds to the managing identifier included in the specific lease profile; inserting the requesting tenant identifier into the specific lease profile; receiving a program request, the request including the specific lease identifier, the requesting tenant identifier, and program data; and transmitting the program data to a payment card corresponding to one of the transaction account numbers included in the specific lease profile.

A near field communication device included in a secure transaction card provides an addition and/or transitional communication link for communicating secure transaction information. The near field communication device may be selectively engaged or disengaged and, when engaged, either active or passive modes of operation of the near field communication device can be selected. in the active mode, secure transaction information is transmitted upon establishment of a communication link with a complementary near field communication device. In the passive mode, secure transaction information is transmitted upon interrogation from a complementary near field communication device. Secure transaction information is generated and stored for transmission in a memory and at least a portion of the memory is erased or nulled upon transmission or upon expiration of a selected period of time.

An electronic device for making a payment is provided. The electronic device includes a display configured to receive a user command, a transceiver configured to communicate with an external device, and a processor configured to request a token associated with a financial service from a payment server when a user requests the financial service and to generate data for providing the financial service by using the token and service information when the token and the service information associated with the financial service is received from the payment server.

A payment card (e.g., credit and/or debit card) is provided with a magnetic emulator operable to act as a magnetic stripe read-head detector and a data transmitter. A multiple layer flexible PCB may be fabricated to include multiple magnetic emulators. An emulator may include a coil that includes magnetic, ferromagnetic, or ferromagnetic, material in the coil's interior. Coils may be associated with zones. As a read-head is detected to move from zone-to-zone, coils may be activated to transmit information in those zones.
