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 enabling programming of electronic identification information of a wireless apparatus. In one embodiment, a previously purchased or deployed wireless apparatus is activated by a cellular network. The wireless apparatus connects to the cellular network using an access module to download operating system components and/or access control client components. The described methods and apparatus enable updates, additions and replacement of various components including Electronic Subscriber Identity Module (eSIM) data, OS components. One exemplary implementation of the invention utilizes a trusted key exchange between the device and the cellular network to maintain security.
Abstract:
A commercial transaction method is disclosed. The method first establishes a secure link over a first air interface by a purchasing device. This secure link is between the purchasing device and a point of sale device. The method further identifies a second air interface, which is different from the first air interface, and the second air interface is used to conduct a secure commercial transaction.
Abstract:
The disclosed technology provides enhanced financial statements such as credit statements that provide customized payment options to a customer that takes into account the total amount owed by the customer, and past payments made by the customer. The customized payment options are determined with the goal of providing more payment options that encourage financial health, while not overwhelming the customer with too many options or irrelevant options. The customized payment options can be displayed in an interactive user interface for paying a credit statement that can visually inform a user of the benefit of the respective payment options with respect to the impact of the respective payment option on the customer's financial health—at least as it pertains to a credit account for which the statement was issued.

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:
Embodiments provided herein identify a certificate issuer (CI) to be relied on as a trusted third party by an electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) server in remote SIM provisioning (RSP) transactions with an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC). In an RSP ecosystem, multiple CIs may exist. Parties rely on public key infrastructure (PKI) techniques for establishment of trust. Trust may be established based on a trusted third party such as a CI. Parties need to agree on the CI in order for some PKI techniques to be useful. Embodiments provided herein describe approaches for an eUICC and an eSIM server to arrive at an agreed-on CI. Candidate or negotiated CIs may be indicated on a public key identifier (PKID) list. A PKID list is distributed, in some embodiments, by means of a discovery server, via an activation code (AC) and/or during the establishment of a profile provisioning session.
Abstract:
The present technology provides a technological infrastructure that overcomes common problems associated with cash back rewards cards. The present invention integrates a credit card account with cash account through an electronic wallet application such that cash can be transferred directly into a user's cash account after each transaction which cash back is earned. In some embodiments, the user's cash account and a cash account associated with a business associated with a credit card can be provided by the same financial institution. The above infrastructure further allows for more efficient payment of a credit card balance, wherein when cash is transferred from the user's cash account to the business' cash account in association with a credit card balance, an immediate release of open to buy funds is affected.
