Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for enabling the generation of a token corresponding to a tone generated by a telephony system, comprising receiving one or more dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) tones generated by a telephony system, generating a token based on the one or more DTMF tones; and transmitting the generated token to a merchant system.

1-20. (canceled)
A method for enabling the generation of a token corresponding to a tone generated by a telephony system, the method comprising:
- detecting, by a processor separate from a merchant system, a dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) tone generated by a telephony system;
- intercepting, by the processor, the detected DTMF tone;
- tokenizing, by the processor, the intercepted DTMF tone to create a token;
- and
- prompting usage of the token to complete a transaction.
A system for enabling the generation of a token corresponding to a tone generated by a telephony system, the system comprising:
- a data storage device storing instructions for enabling the generation of a token corresponding to a tone generated by a telephony system;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform a method comprising:
- detecting, by a processor separate from a merchant system, a dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) tone generated by a telephony system;
- intercepting, by the processor, the detected DTMF tone;
- tokenizing, by the processor, the intercepted DTMF tone to create a token;
- and
- prompting usage of the token to complete a transaction.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a transaction processor, cause the transaction processor to perform a method for enabling the generation of a token corresponding to a tone generated by a telephony system, the method comprising:
- detecting, by a processor separate from a merchant system, a dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) tone generated by a telephony system;
- intercepting, by the processor, the detected DTMF tone;
- tokenizing, by the processor, the intercepted DTMF tone to create a low-value token;
- and
- prompting usage of the token to complete a transaction.
