Confirming authenticity of a user to a third-party system

A method of authenticating a user to a third-party electronic device, the method comprising operations executable by one or more processors, the operations including:

• receiving, from a user device associated with a user, a command to share personal identification information about the user to a third-party electronic device, wherein the command identifies one or more types of the personal identification information to be shared with the third-party electronic device;
• receiving, from the user device associated with the user, an electronic transaction code and a digital identifier associated with the user, the digital identifier being usable to authenticate the user for transactions with third-party electronic devices that are communicatively separate from each other, the digital identifier being electronically tethered or bound to the user device, and wherein the electronic transaction code is correlated to the personal identification information of the user;
• and
• in response to confirming the electronic transaction code and the digital identifier, transmitting via a network communications port the one or more types of personal identification information about the user as identified in the command from the user device to the third-party electronic device to authenticate the user to the third-party electronic device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying program code for authenticating a user to a third-party electronic device, the program code comprising instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations including:

• receiving, from a user device associated with a user, a command to share personal identification information about the user to a third-party electronic device, wherein the command identifies one or more types of the personal identification information to be share with the third-party electronic device;
• receiving, from the user device associated with the user, an electronic transaction code and a digital identifier associated with the user, the digital identifier being storable in encrypted form in the user device and usable to authenticate the user for transactions with third-party electronic devices that are communicatively separate from each other, the digital identifier being electronically tethered or bound to the user device, and wherein the electronic transaction code is correlated to the personal identification information of the user;
• and
• in response to confirming the electronic transaction code and the digital identifier, transmitting via a network communications port the one or more types of personal identification information about the user as identified in the command from the user device to the third-party electronic device to authenticate the user to the third-party electronic device.
