| 20110137789 | Trust Based Transaction System - A configuration for more efficient electronic financial transactions is disclosed. Users input personal and financial information into a system that validates the information to generate trusted financial profiles. Each user can establish trusted financial links with other users. The trusted financial link provides a mechanism for the user to allow other users to withdraw money from the link provider account. The data from these relationships and the financial data flowing through the system enable a measure of trustworthiness of users and the trustworthiness of all interactions in the system. The combination of trusted financial profiles, trusted financial links, and financial transactions between users create a measurable financial trust graph which is a true representation of the trusting economic relationships among the users. The financial trust graph enables a more accurate assessment of the creditworthiness and financial risk of transactions by users with little or no credit or transaction history. | 06-09-2011 |
