Systems and methods for authenticating a resource transfer in a peer-to-peer resource sharing electronic network

A computer program product for authenticating a resource transfer in a peer-to-peer resource sharing electronic network, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising code portions for:

• receiving a resource transfer request from a first endpoint device, wherein the resource transfer request comprises a selection of a second endpoint device as a recipient;
• initiating an authentication check associated with the resource transfer request, wherein the authentication check comprises prompting the second endpoint device to provide an authentication input;
• receiving the authentication input from the second endpoint device;
• validating the authentication input by comparing the authentication input with a shared authentication credential associated with the resource transfer request;
• and
• based on validating the authentication input, executing a resource transfer according to one or more parameters defined in the resource transfer request.

A computer-implemented method for authenticating a resource transfer in a peer-to-peer resource sharing electronic network, the computer-implemented method comprising:

• receiving a resource transfer request from a first endpoint device, wherein the resource transfer request comprises a selection of a second endpoint device as a recipient;
• initiating an authentication check associated with the resource transfer request, wherein the authentication check comprises prompting the second endpoint device to provide an authentication input;
• receiving the authentication input from the second endpoint device;
• validating the authentication input by comparing the authentication input with a shared authentication credential associated with the resource transfer request;
• and
• based on validating the authentication input, executing a resource transfer according to one or more parameters defined in the resource transfer request.
