Abstract
Systems and methods are described for providing fraud deterrents during payment card transactions especially for e-commerce and e-transactions. Fraud deterrents may be selected and configured by a client, bank, or other third-party and provided to a client in customized manners which may be configured on a client's authorized device or otherwise as defined in an e-profile associated with a payment card. Fraud deterrent options may be contingent upon transaction features including a client's profile, transaction value, or other preferences. The deterrent features may be customized by the client and include use of conceptual passwords.
Claims19
A method of facilitating fraud prevention in payment processing, said method comprising:
- receiving a payment card transaction request of a processor of a merchant device to be remotely electronically authorized by at least one processor of an electronic fraud free transaction (e-FFT) payment card transaction entity containing an e-FFT payment card transaction server computer;
- operating the e-FFT payment card transaction server computer for obtaining information relating to the payment card transaction request by a client device associated with an e-profile, the client device having a processor configured for operating according to rules defined by an e-profile that is associated with a client payment card;
- obtaining, by the client device access to client data associated with an e-profile, the access being provided by an application installed on the client device for use in electronic transaction processing and authorization determination associated with the client payment card, wherein the access by the application to a set of e-profile data is controlled by client-based rules and preferences of a client and comprises the application accessing the e-profile of the client, and wherein the e-profile data remains unknown to at least one server computer of a payment card processing entity;
- evaluating, using information associated with the e-profile, a set of one or more rules associated with the e-profile according to preferences available on the client device, the evaluating to determine whether a payment card transaction is to be electronically authorized, and the evaluating using a set of personal data provided to the client device and to which access is provided for determining whether the payment card transaction is to be electronically authorized, wherein the application is configured for receiving a payment transaction request from the e-FFT payment card transaction server computer, the payment transaction request comprising information related to the payment card transaction, and performing the evaluation based upon the payment transaction request, and where the evaluating compares at least a portion of the information relating to the payment card transaction to at least a portion of the set of e-profile data according to a set of e-profile rules defined for said client device;
- providing based upon the evaluating, in response to a request by at least a server computer of a payment card processing entity, an indication of whether the payment card transaction request of a merchant is to be at least one of electronically authorized or rejected;
- and,
- allowing or rejecting a transaction based at least partially on an evaluation as to allow or reject the transaction, wherein said e-FFT processor, said client device processor and said processor of said merchant device are separate and distinct.
4 more elements
A computer system having a program application for facilitating fraud prevention in payment processing, said computer system comprising:
- a server computer with memory for storing rules in an electronic fraud free transaction (e-FFT) payment card transaction entity which can be implemented by a server computer processor for performing a method comprising:
- receiving a payment card transaction request of a processor of a merchant device to be remotely electronically authorized by at least one processor of an e-FFT payment card transaction server computer, obtaining information relating to the payment card transaction request by a client device with an associated an e-profile, the client device having a processor configured for operating according to rules defined by a set of e-profile data that is associated with a payment card;
- obtaining, by the client device, access to client data associated with the set of e-profile data, the access being provided by an application installed on the client device for use in electronic transaction processing and authorization determination associated with a payment card, wherein the access by the application to the set of e-profile data is controlled by client-based rules and preferences of the client and comprises the application accessing the e-profile of the client, and wherein the set of e-profile data remains unknown to at least one server computer of a payment card processing entity;
- evaluating, using information associated with the set of e-profile data, a set of one or more rules associated with the set of e-profile data according to preferences available on the client device, the evaluating to determine whether the payment card transaction is to be electronically authorized, and the evaluating, using a set of personal data provided to the client device and to which access is provided for determining whether the payment card transaction is to be electronically authorized, wherein the application is configured for receiving the payment transaction request from the e-FFT payment card transaction server computer, the payment transaction request comprising information related to the payment card transaction, and performing the evaluation based upon the transaction request, and where the evaluating compares at least some of the information relating to the payment card transaction to at least some of the set of e-profile data according to the e-profile rules;
- providing based upon the evaluating, in response to the request by at least the server computer of a payment card processing entity, an indication of whether the payment card transaction is to be at least one of electronically authorized or rejected;
- and,
- allowing or rejecting the transaction based at least partially on an evaluation as to allow or reject the transaction, wherein said e-FFT processor, said client device processor and said processor of said merchant device are separate and distinct.
