    Abstract: An electronic device may attempt to provision an unprovisioned credential, such as a payment instrument, by providing a message with information specifying the unprovisioned credential to a first computer. This first computer may be associated with a first region in which: a first provisioned credential of a user is supported, the user has registered, and the user can conduct transactions based on the first provisioned credential. However, the unprovisioned credential may be supported in or otherwise associated with a second region. Consequently, the electronic device may receive, from the first computer, redirect information that specifies a second computer associated with the second region. In response, the electronic device can provide the message to the second computer. Further, the electronic device can communicate provisioning information for the unprovisioned credential with the second computer, so the credential can be provisioned.

    Abstract: If a user loses an electronic device that has the capability to conduct financial transactions, the user may report that the electronic device is lost using a lost-device software application to a management electronic device associated with a provider of the electronic device. In response to receiving this information, a disabling command is sent to a payment network associated with the financial account of the user to temporarily disable use of the electronic device to conduct the financial transactions. In particular, the electronic device may include a secure element that stores a payment applet for a financial account, and the disabling command may disable a mapping from a virtual identifier for the financial account to a financial primary account number. Subsequently, if the user finds the electronic device, the user may re-enable the capability (and, thus, the mapping) by providing authentication information to the electronic device.

    Abstract translation: 如果用户丢失了具有进行金融交易能力的电子设备,则用户可以使用丢失的设备软件应用向与电子设备的提供商相关联的管理电子设备报告电子设备丢失。 响应于接收到该信息,禁用命令被发送到与用户的财务帐户相关联的支付网络,以暂时禁止使用电子设备进行金融交易。 特别地,电子设备可以包括存储用于金融帐户的支付小应用程序的安全元件,并且禁用命令可以禁用从财务帐户的虚拟标识符到财务主帐号的映射。 随后,如果用户发现电子设备,则用户可以通过向电子设备提供认证信息来重新启用能力(并且因此映射)。

    Abstract: To facilitate conducting a financial transaction via wireless communication between an electronic device and another electronic device, the electronic device determines a unique transaction identifier for the financial transaction based on financial-account information communicated to the other electronic device. The financial-account information specifies a financial account that is used to pay for the financial transaction. Moreover, the unique transaction identifier may be capable of being independently computed by one or more other entities associated with the financial transaction (such as a counterparty in the financial transaction or a payment network that processes payment for the financial transaction) based on the financial-account information communicated by the portable electronic device. The electronic device may also associate receipt information, which is subsequently received from a third party (such as the payment network), with the financial transaction by comparing the determined unique transaction identifier to the computed unique transaction identifier.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for the deployment of financial instruments and other assets are disclosed. In one embodiment, a security software protocol is disclosed that guarantees that the asset is always securely encrypted, that one and only one copy of an asset exists, and the asset is delivered to an authenticated and/or authorized customer. Additionally, exemplary embodiments of provisioning systems are disclosed that are capable of, among other things, handling large bursts of traffic (such as can occur on a so-called “launch day” of a device).

    Abstract: To facilitate conducting a financial transaction via wireless communication between an electronic device and another electronic device, a secure element in the electronic device receives, from a third party, a notification associated with a financial transaction. This third party may be independent of a counterparty in the financial transaction, such as: a provider of the electronic device or a payment network that processes payment for the financial transaction. In response to the notification, the secure element requests, from the third party, receipt information associated with the financial transaction, and then receives the receipt information from the third party. This receipt information may include a first-level information, such as payment status. Alternatively or additionally, the receipt information may include a second-level information, such as an itemized list of purchased items, links to information and/or discounts.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for user authentication and human intent verification of administrative operations for eSIMs of an eUICC included in a mobile device are disclosed. Certain administrative operations, such as import, modification, and/or export, of an eSIM and/or for an eUICCs firmware can require user authentication and/or human intent verification before execution of the administrative operations are performed or completed by the mobile device. A user of the mobile device provides information to link an external user account to an eSIM upon (or subsequent to) installation on the eUICC. User credentials, such as a user name and password, and/or information generated therefrom, can be used to authenticate the user with an external server. In response to successful user authentication, the administrative operations are performed. Human intent verification can also be performed in conjunction with user authentication to prevent malware from interfering with eSIM and/or eUICC functions of the mobile device.
