A system for providing a payment includes a processor and a memory configured to cause the system to receive a payment request representative of a payment amount, a payor identification, and a payee identification. The system includes means for determining payor cash holdings and payor available credit as well as authenticating the validity of a payment request and identity of the payor via received biometric data from a payor device. The system may further receive data representative of payee approved payment methods and determine a payment composition based on the payment amount, payor payment preferences, payor cash holdings and payor available credit. Based on the payee approved payment methods, the system may determine one or more payment types. The system may convey the payment amount to the payee in the form of one or more payment types and may fund the payment amount according to the payment composition.

Systems and methods for autonomous payment routing are provided. A method may include storing in a smart card a database of contacts accessed from a digital contact directory. The method may include receiving a request to reroute a payment via an alternate payment channel, the payment including a recipient and an amount, and the alternate payment channel originating from an account associated with one of the contacts in the database. The method may also include resolving, via a wireless communication element that is embedded in the smart card, routing information for the account. The method may also include transmitting, to an administrator of the account, a request for authorization to reroute the payment, and, when authorization is received, executing the payment via the alternate payment channel.

A zero-step authentication system and method which uses wireless mobile devices to automatically make payments in a secure manner without requiring the customer to handle his or her mobile device. The system and method uses a payment facilitation device at the business location which automatically detects and recognizes registered mobile devices, displays a photo of the customer to a business employee for identity confirmation, and automatically deducts payments for purchases from a pre-authorized customer account. The customer account is managed by a payment processing server, which stores the customer account data, makes appropriate deductions, sends confirmation of deductions to the customer's mobile device, and automatically refills the customer's account by making pre-authorized charges to the customer's banking institution.

Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for dynamically re-authenticating a virtual resource. The present invention is configured to receive an indication that a user has initiated an execution of one or more resource transfer requests using a virtual resource; determine one or more resource usage metrics associated with the virtual resource; determine one or more conditions associated with the use of the virtual resource; determine that the one or more resource usage metrics meets the one or more conditions associated with the use of the virtual resource; automatically initiate a virtual resource re-authentication protocol; transmit an authentication request to re-authenticate the virtual resource; receive an authentication response from the user in response to the authentication request; and re-authenticate the virtual resource based on at least validating the authentication response received from the user.

An integrated record management (IRM) computing device is configured to receive and store incentive structures and a record of a credited amount to be credited to a pre-paid debit account associated with a user. The computing device is also configured to receive a first authorization request message for a transaction with a merchant, and compare a transaction amount of the transaction to a credited amount of funds identified in the record. When the transaction amount is greater than the credited amount of funds, the computing device modifies the first authorization request message to generate a second authorization request message and transmits the second authorization request message to an issuer of another payment account associated with the user for authorization processing. When the transaction amount is less than or equal to the credited amount of funds, the computing device initiates a pre-paid debit transaction with the merchant and excluding the issuer.

Disclosed are various embodiments for using aggregated transaction accounts to make purchases. A transaction authorization request for a transaction is received from a merchant device, the transaction authorization request comprising an aggregated transaction account identifier, a transaction amount, and a merchant identifier. Multiple linked transaction accounts associated with an aggregated transaction account identified by the aggregated transaction account identifier are then identified or selected. At least a portion of the transaction amount is debited from each of the multiple linked transaction accounts. Then, an authorization response is sent to the merchant device, the authorization response indicating that the transaction is authorized for the transaction amount.

Systems and methods are for executing an electronic transaction by a parallel transaction system. One method includes receiving, by a parallel transaction system, an electronic transaction request of a payment vehicle. The parallel transaction system may determine a type of the payment vehicle. The type of the payment vehicle is at least one of an open loop type, a closed loop type, or a parallel type. The parallel transaction system may execute an open-loop transaction, a closed-loop transaction, and/or a parallel transaction, based on the determined type of the payment vehicle. The parallel transaction system may complete the electronic transaction request.

Systems and methods for transaction processing control are presented. Transaction processing control may be obtained through interaction of a POS device, an account card, and a mobile device. Transaction processing control may be provided in the context of providing account information, including handling requests to select and provide a second account number via a mobile device in communication with a rejected card such that the rejected card need not be removed from the point of sale device and a second card need not be submitted to the point of sale device.

A method of performing a real-time non-inquiry electronic transaction is provided. The method includes receiving, by a paying bank computing system associated with a paying bank, a posting of a transaction from an account verification service, the transaction corresponding to a transfer of funds from the paying bank computing system to a depository computing system associated with a depository bank. The method further includes sending, by the paying bank computing system, an acknowledgement of the transaction to the account verification service, wherein the transaction is determined to be a non-inquiry transaction such that the transaction is posted at the depository bank computing system without performing an initial inquiry regarding the transaction at the account verification service.
