A retrofitted credit card including a certified smart card chip, a display and retrofitted emulation circuitry operative to enable the certified smart card chip to communicate information to the display notwithstanding that the certified smart card chip is configured for communication only with an external read/write device.

An authenticated data transfer system may include generating, after entry of one or more processors of a transmitting device into a communication field, a link, the link comprising a near field communication data exchange format uniform resource locator including identifier data and user data; transmitting, to a first application comprising instructions for execution on a first device, the link to initiate data transfer; authenticating a user associated with the first device by activating one or more actions based on the link; transmitting one or more requests for confirmation of quantity and recipient data associated with the data transfer; receiving one or more notifications that are based on the one or more requests for confirmation of quantity and recipient data associated with the data transfer; and performing one or more login credentials that are responsive to the one or more notifications so as to complete the data transfer.

A method and system for communicating estimated blood loss parameters of a patient to a user, the method comprising: receiving data representative of an image, of a fluid receiver; automatically detecting a region within the image associated with a volume of fluid received at the fluid receiver, the volume of fluid including a blood component; calculating an estimated amount of the blood component present in the volume of fluid based upon a color parameter represented in the region, and determining a bias error associated with the estimated amount of the blood component; updating an analysis of an aggregate amount of the blood component and an aggregate bias error associated with blood loss of the patient, based upon the estimated amount of the blood component and the bias error; and providing information from the analysis of the aggregate amount of the blood component and the aggregate bias error, to the user.

The invention relates to an enabling card as well as a system and method for completing a financial transaction in a P.O.S. terminal comprising: a processor carried by the enabling card for: establishing a connection with a mobile device; receiving secure information from a mobile device and generating a digital signal; a coil carried by the enabling card for generating a magnetic field in response to the digital signal to simulate the swipe of card in the P.O.S. terminal and complete the financial transaction.

An offline transaction is conducted using a primary electronic device or a secondary electronic device communicatively coupled to the primary electronic device. A geographical zone where Internet connectivity is unreliable is determined for the primary electronic device. A detection is made that the primary electronic device is about to enter the geographical zone. In response to the detecting, an amount of funds is made electronically available offline for the primary electronic device. An offline electronic transaction is conducted using the primary electronic device based on the amount of funds. The offline electronic transaction is conducted within the geographical zone.

A payment card (e.g., credit and/or debit card) or other device (e.g., mobile telephone) is provided with a magnetic emulator operable to communicate data to a magnetic stripe read-head. Gift cards may be inputted by a user into such a payment card or other device such that a user can combine gift cards. Similarly, a user be provided with a global payment account that can be utilized in multiple countries that have different standards for formatting data. A user may be provided with a default country (e.g., United States) but may have a way to select that the user is in a different country (e.g., Japan). Accordingly, a user may select that a Japanese data structure be transmitted through a magnetic stripe reader when the user is in Japan.

A method and system for transferring encrypted data from a first electronic device to a second electronic device. The method includes the steps of displaying a first encrypted two-dimensional code at the output interface of the first electronic device, reading the first encrypted two-dimensional code with the input interface of the second electronic device, and decrypting the first two-dimensional code with the second electronic device, generating a second encrypted two-dimensional code with the second electronic device, and displaying the second encrypted two-dimensional code on the output interface of the second electronic device, reading the second two-dimensional code encrypted with the input interface of the first electronic device and decrypting the second two-dimensional code with the first electronic device and generating an action on the first electronic device based on the second decrypted two-dimensional code. The second two-dimensional code is a plurality of two-dimensional codes.

Embodiments of systems, computer program product, and related computer implemented methods to issue a closed-loop retail prepaid card including a user-designed external face using a chit, the chit being defined by an identification mechanism representing a financial commitment to issue a closed-loop retail prepaid card in an amount associated with a value paid for the chit, are provided. Embodiments of the present invention advantageously provide a service that enables a consumer to purchase, at the storefront of a retail establishment, a chit card that the consumer can subsequently redeem through a graphical user interface of an Internet website for a closed-loop retail prepaid card with a user-designed external face. The user-designed closed-loop retail prepaid card, for example, can be subsequently printed and delivered to an intended recipient. Advantageously, such a service can be made available to any retail establishment that uses a point-of-sale system.

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.

Systems and methods for authentication may include a first device having an association with a first account, including a memory containing one or more applets, a counter value, and transmission data, a communication interface, and one or more processors in communication with the memory and communication interface. The first device may create a cryptogram based on the counter value, wherein the cryptogram includes the counter value and the transmission data. The first device may transmit, after entry of the communication interface into a communication field, the cryptogram, and update, after transmission of the cryptogram, the counter value. The first device may receive, via the communication interface, one or more encrypted keys and one or more parameters. The first device may decrypt the one or more encrypted keys and, after decryption of the one or more encrypted keys, switch an association from the first account to a second account.
