Point-of-sale billing via hand-held devices

A payment resolution module is configured to communicate with hand-held devices (such as mobile phones, PDA's, or computers) to allow purchase of products using the hand-held devices, without requiring the user of the hand-held device to enter payment information for each transaction. The user of the hand-held device may be identified as the owner of the device either by having the option to enter a personal identification code, or by using a biometric to identify himself, for example. Accordingly, only an authorized user of the hand-held device may use the hand-held device to purchase products. After the payment resolution module receives authorization for payment, an authorization code is transmitted to the mobile device. The user may be required to present the authorization code at the point of sale, such as by entering the code into a computing device at the point-of-sale, prior to completion of the transaction.

Online payer authentication service

A payment authentication service authenticates the identity of a payer during online transactions. The authentication service of the present invention allows a card issuer to verify a cardholder's identity using a variety of authentication methods, such as the use of passwords. Also, the only system participant requiring a certificate is the issuing financial institution. One embodiment of the invention for authenticating the identity of a cardholder during an online transaction involves querying an access control server to determine if a cardholder is enrolled in the payment authentication service, requests a password from the cardholder, verifies the password, and notifies a merchant whether the cardholder's authenticity has been verified. In another aspect of the invention, a chip card and the authentication service independently generate cryptograms that must match in order for the service to verify that the correct chip card is being used by the cardholder.

System for managing multiple credit accounts

In an improved method and system for managing consumer credit accounts a consumer registers a plurality of credit accounts through a secure web page establishing a priority of accounts in the process. The web page aggregates data from all of the registered accounts and a single credit card or device is issued to access the aggregated accounts. The single card is used at points of sale like an ordinary credit card except that it requires a password like a debit card. When a purchase is made the request is relayed to the credit account that has the top priority and sufficient available credit. A single card can access a plurality of separate credit accounts so there is no need to carry multiple cards. If the single card is stolen, it can be rapidly inactivated with a single call. It will not be necessary to cancel the underlying accounts.
