Monitoring Data for Determining Condition Satisfaction
Particular embodiments receive, by at least one computing device of a payment service, a request to configure a goal to associate with a user account of a user, where the goal is associated with a condition that, when satisfied, causes an incentive to be associated with the user account. The at least one computing device generates a data object for tracking completion of the goal, where the data object is stored in a datastore by the payment service. The at least one computing device monitors, in near-real-time, at least one of managed transaction data associated with users of the payment service or interaction data associated with the user. The at least one computing device determines, based at least in part on comparing at least one of the transaction data or the interaction data to at least the condition, satisfaction of the condition.
CARBON NEUTRAL BLOCKCHAIN PROTOCOL FOR RESOLVING CARBON OFFSETTER PAYMENTS FOR CRYPTOCURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
There are provided systems and methods for a carbon neutral blockchain protocol for resolving carbon offsetter payments for cryptocurrency transactions. A service provider, such as an online transaction processor, may provide a green wallet and network protocol that provides carbon offsetting fees and payments to carbon offsetters in order to account for carbon emissions and usage when processing cryptocurrency transactions on a blockchain network protocol. A green wallet may be provided, which allows registration of carbon offsetters and use of green addresses to cause cryptocurrency to be processed in a green transaction. A user's digital wallet may sign an initial cryptocurrency transaction and provide the fee to the green wallet. The green wallet may then resolve the cryptocurrency transaction by further signing the transaction and transmitting the fee to a digital wallet of the carbon offsetter over another cryptocurrency processing network.
Reduced friction for merchant interactions
Improvements to existing technologies associated with point-of-sale transactions and merchant ecosystems to, among other things, reduce in-person contact and, in some examples, improve the efficiency at which point-of-sale transactions are completed (i.e., reduce friction) are described. In some examples, such reduced in-person contact and/or improved efficiencies can limit transmission of infectious diseases. As such, techniques described are directed to modifying aspects of point-of-sale transactions such that they occur on different computing devices (e.g., customer computing devices instead of merchant computing devices), are automated, and/or occur at different times than with conventional point-of-sale transactions. Furthermore, in at least one example, techniques described can leverage a distributed, network-based merchant ecosystem—comprising multiple merchant computing devices and/or customer computing devices that are specially configured to communicate with a service provider—to facilitate social distancing, which can reduce in-person contact and, in some examples, improve the efficiency at which point-of-sale transactions are completed.
Network access authentication and authorization using a blockchain network
Some implementations of the disclosure are directed to receiving, at an authentication server system, a distributed ledger address transmitted by a client device to identify itself during an authentication process for accessing a network, where the distributed ledger address corresponds to a distributed ledger network; transmitting an authentication challenge message from the authentication server to the client device; in response to transmitting the authentication challenge message from the authentication server to the client device, receiving at the authentication server, a response to the challenge message including a signature; and using at least the distributed ledger network to determine if the signature used to sign the response to the challenge message is associated with the distributed ledger address transmitted by the client device.
Card present onboarding-utility
Method to generate onboarding flow for application starts with on-boarding server receiving request from electronic device to activate application. On-boarding server determines whether request is initial request. Request is determined to be initial request when minimal set of information associated with user is not stored in on-boarding server. When request is determined to be initial request, on-boarding server signals to electronic device to display request for minimal set of information associated with user which includes at least one of: user identification, legal name, phone number, or email address. Minimal set of information associated with user is then received and stored in on-boarding server. On-boarding server signals to allow initial access to application. Signaling to allow initial access includes signaling that user requires access to payment processing hardware to process user's physical payment instrument. On-boarding server receives default payment information entered using payment processing hardware. Other embodiments are also described.
System, Method, and Apparatus for Decentralized E-Commerce
A system, method, and apparatus for decentralized e-commerce and related transactions are provided. A computing system is configured to generate buyer and seller digital wallets on a distributed ledger, receive listings for products sales from a seller electronic device, display listings for sale, and receive requests to purchase any of the listings from a buyer electronic device. A computing system is configured to chain a new block of data to a previous block of related data each time an inquiry, transaction, or other interaction with data contained with a digital wallet, such as currency or product or service listings, are received. The computing system is further operative to authenticate, display, and even translate communications transmitted and received by and between buyer/seller user electronic devices.
Method and System for Facilitating Virtual Gifting
The present invention relates to a method, system, and computer program product for facilitating sharing of desired items stored in a digital wallet for gifting purposes. The invention includes selection of items by users to be saved in their digital wallets and sharing of the wallet and items saved therein with other users such as friends, relatives and others. The other users can view the content of the shared wallets and can purchase one or more items for gifting. The invention also includes registration of the sellers for listing items for sale at a discounted price, along with a percentage sharing with the server used in the digital wallet.
Information processing method, apparatus, device, and storage medium
The present application discloses an information processing method. The method includes: acquiring a resource package parameter determined by a sender client; invoking an interface with a second server, and acquiring a current conversion rate that is between the first-type resource and a second-type resource and is issued by the second server; calculating a quantity of second-type resources equal in value to the first quantity of first-type resources according to the conversion rate, and using the quantity as a second quantity; deducting the second quantity of second-type resources from a second-type resource account of the sender client, and generating at least one resource package, a sum of quantities corresponding to the at least one resource package being equal to the first quantity; and distributing the at least one resource package to at least one receiver client by using the link information.
System and method for inserting data into an internet browser form
Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for inserting payment information into payment forms without user interaction. A system can identify that a user has navigated to a web page operated by a merchant computer system for a merchant and identify a payment form within the web page. The system can then execute a payment request API which generates a query for saved payment credentials for the user from the merchant computer system. When the merchant computer system indicates it does not have the saved payment credentials for the user, the system can identify browser-saved payment credentials stored in the Internet browser, then generate a virtual payment information associated with the browser-saved payment credentials. The virtual payment information can then be inserted into corresponding fields of the payment form without the user entering any additional information.
Automatically adjusting order fulfillment due to offline ordering
A server receives an order request from a consumer device where the order request is be provisioned to a recipient at a later time and where the recipient is required to be physically present receive the order. The order request also includes a request location and a request time. As a function of the information, the method determines an estimated time to complete the order request. The method further sends a confirmation request to the consumer device requesting a confirmation response within a predetermined time. After an expiration of the predetermined time, the method completes a transaction for the order request and receives the confirmation response from the consumer device after the expiration of the predetermined time. The method sends a notification to the consumer device indicating the estimated time to complete the order request for the recipient to receive the order request.
