| 20100198728 | OVER THE AIR MANAGEMENT OF PAYMENT APPLICATION INSTALLED IN MOBILE DEVICE - Systems, apparatus, and methods for managing a payment application installed on a mobile device, such as a mobile phone are provided. An Issuer of a payment device can remotely control the payment application by instructing a wireless network carrier or operator to transmit a message to the mobile phone, where the message contains an instruction to perform an operation related to the payment application. The Issuer can remotely reset a counter or a password associated with the payment application, lock or unlock a payment application, and set the access control data to a predetermined value, to prevent unauthorized use of the payment application in the situation in which the mobile phone is lost or stolen, or the Issuer desires to limit access to the payment application for other reasons, such as limiting its exposure to unauthorized uses of the payment device. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20100250956 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FACILITATING DATA ACCESS AND MANAGEMENT ON A SECURE TOKEN - A system for facilitating data access and management on a smart card is provided. According to one exemplary aspect of the system, a storage architecture is provided in the smart card which allows data stored thereon to be shared by multiple parties. Access to data stored on the smart card is controlled by various access methods depending on the actions to be taken with respect to the data to be accessed. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100252623 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING A DYNAMIC VERIFICATION VALUE - A method is disclosed. The method includes generating a verification value in response to a transaction involving a portable consumer device, where the verification value is generated using a first dynamic data element and a second dynamic data element. The verification value is sent to a service provider associated with the portable consumer device so that the service provider can verify the transaction. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20100262546 | PAYMENT SERVICE AUTHENTICATION FOR A TRANSACTION USING A GENERATED DYNAMIC VERIFICATION VALUE - Methods and systems for dynamically generating a verification value for a transaction and for utilizing such value to verify the authenticity of the payment service application. The dynamically created verification value may be generated on a payment device, such as an integrated circuit credit card or smart card, embedded into the payment data, and transmitted to a point of sale terminal. Alternatively, payment data is sent by a payment device to a point of sale terminal, which generates a verification value and embeds it into the payment data. The embedded verification value is used by a service provider to verify the authenticity of the transaction. The methods and systems may be used in a contactless (wireless) environment or a non-wireless environment. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20110016054 | SIGNATURE BASED NEGATIVE LIST FOR OFF LINE PAYMENT DEVICE VALIDATION - At each of a plurality of transit readers of a transit system, for each of a plurality of riders, where each rider seeks to conduct an access transaction with the transit system for access into the transit facility by using a payment device issued by an issuer in a payment system, data is read from the payment device. The data includes an encryption code that uniquely corresponds to the payment device and was created by the issuer using one or more encryption keys and a predetermined algorithm. A check will be performed, remotely and/or locally, of one or more lists of other encryption codes to determine if the encryption code is on the list. On the basis of whether the encryption code is on the list, the rider is permitted access to the facility of the transit system. The payment device need not be changed for the rider's fare. Decryption of the encryption code read from the payment device is not required to complete the access transaction. | 01-20-2011 |
| 20110247063 | Mutual Mobile Authentication Using a Key Management Center - A system, method, and server computer configured to authenticate a consumer device. The consumer device is authenticated via a mobile gateway using challenge-response authentication. If the consumer device is successfully authenticated, a secure channel is established between the consumer device and a first entity. The secure channel allows for secure communication between the consumer device and the first entity. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20110258280 | GENERAL PURPOSE MESSAGING - Embodiments of the present invention relate to systems and methods for enabling entities, such as issuers, merchants, payment processing networks, and mobile-network operators, to send account-related messages and marketing messages to a user's mobile device in response to a message request sent from the user's mobile device. According to some embodiments, the account-related messages and the marketing messages are sent to the user's mobile device in accordance with message parameters that are defined by the user and that are embedded in the message request. | 10-20-2011 |
| 20120022973 | TRUSTED INTERNAL INTERFACE - An interface and device architecture for a payment device. An interface between a payment application installed in a payment device and one or more value-add applications (such as loyalty programs, transit applications, etc.) that are also installed in the payment device. The API or interface design permits communications and data transfer between the payment application and one or more value-add applications. This reduces (and in some cases may prevent) the need for back-end server processing of data that may be relevant to both a payment transaction and to a function of the value-add application. Similarly, the same or another API or interface may enable communications and data transfer between a value-add application and the payment application. | 01-26-2012 |
