Systems, methods, and devices for selling transaction accounts

A transaction account distribution device for facilitating distribution of transaction account cards by a distributor, said transaction account distribution device configured to:

• facilitate issuing transaction account cards in groups to said distributor, wherein each of said transaction account cards include a different randomized transaction account code associated with a respective transaction account, and a serialized tracking code which conforms to a MICR communication protocol;
• receive information from said distributor via said MICR communication protocol, wherein said MICR communication protocol includes rules governing syntax, semantics, and synchronization of communication, and wherein said information includes said transaction account codes and said serialized tracking codes which indicate said transaction account cards that have been distributed by said distributer;
• process said information via a pre-established Travelers Cheque infrastructure;
• transmit said processed information to a non-Travelers Cheque transaction account infrastructure;
• and
• receiving approval of said serialized tracking code to enable a purchase of said transaction account card.

A system for facilitating distribution of a transaction account through a third party distributor comprising:

• a network interface communicating with a memory;
• said memory communicating with a processor;
• and
• said processor, when executing a computer program, is configured to perform a method comprising:
• facilitating issuing transaction account cards in groups to said distributor, wherein each of said transaction account cards include a different randomized transaction account code associated with a respective transaction account, and a serialized tracking code which conforms to a MICR communication protocol;
• receiving information from said distributor via said MICR communication protocol, wherein said MICR communication protocol includes rules governing syntax, semantics, and synchronization of communication, and wherein said information includes said transaction account codes and said serialized tracking codes which indicate said transaction account cards that have been distributed by said distributer;
• processing said information via a pre-established Travelers Cheque infrastructure;
• transmitting said processed information to a non-Travelers Cheque transaction account infrastructure;
• and
• transmitting approval of said serialized tracking code to enable a purchase of said transaction account card.

A non-transitory, tangible computer-readable medium having stored thereon a plurality of computer-executable instructions that, if executed by a computing device, cause said computing device to perform operations comprising:

• facilitating issuing transaction account cards in groups to said distributor, wherein each of said transaction account cards include a different randomized transaction account code associated with a respective transaction account, and a serialized tracking code which conforms to a MICR communication protocol;
• receiving information from said distributor via said MICR communication protocol, wherein said MICR communication protocol includes rules governing syntax, semantics, and synchronization of communication, and wherein said information includes said transaction account codes and said serialized tracking codes which indicate said transaction account cards that have been distributed by said distributer;
• processing said information via a pre-established Travelers Cheque infrastructure;
• transmitting said processed information to a non-Travelers Cheque transaction account infrastructure;
• and
• approving of said serialized tracking code to enable a purchase of said transaction account card.
