[02] present patent application requires the U.S. Patent application 60/744 submitted on March 30th, 2006,013, the U.S. Patent application of submitting on April 15th, 2,006 60/744, the U.S. Patent application 60/870 that on Dec 18th, 930 and 2006 submitted, 484 right of priority is quoted in conjunction with in this application by the every other list of references of quoting in the application.
Background of invention
[03] embodiments of the invention relate generally to the electronic money funds transfer system, specifically, relate to basically operation in real time, and can be between the individual and carry out the money-transfer system of money transfer between individual and the businessman.The embodiment of payment system of the present invention is particularly suitable for such implementation, and wherein, the wireless device such as cell phone is to be used to one of consumer's interface that carries out such money transfer.
[04] from history, wish to carry out financial transaction-for example, buy commodity-the people all be the various financial instruments that rely on such as currency, check, credit or debit card.Regrettably, all there is safety issue in each in these financial instruments.When cash is lost or is stolen, there is not remedial measure usually, have the acceptance loss only.For other financial instruments, loss is not a subject matter, and still, swindle can cause paying the heavy losses of industry.Really, credit card, debit card and check fraud be always and be the bigger problem of the sector with continuing, and is a big test for the rate of return of payment industry.
[05] a check fraud common reason like this is owing to need show check to paying party bank of deposit physically.So, when check is accepted, can not guarantee that check has fund in financial transaction, or be sometimes referred to as " good fund ".On the contrary, check is a piece of paper, must be used for the signature of authority to pay together with employed account, and available balance is verified the legitimacy of the bank of drawing this check together.For credit or debit card, the user may not be authorized to, but can collect sizable expense before the stopped account in publisher.
[06] apparent, required is such payment system, and what the take over party of the fund in the financial transaction can verify like a cork that they receive is good fund.Further, required is that safer visit credit card and debit card are to carry out the mode of financial transaction.
[07] although each financial instrument of listing above is widely used in the past, obviously, the method for financial transaction is reached in a kind of simple, safe being used to of consumer wants.The generally use of credit card provides ample evidence to prove, for little shopping, consumer and businessman more are ready to use electronic payment system, rather than handle a large amount of cashes or open the negotiation check, like this can be very inconvenient.Yet the cost of credit card trade makes their use for the surprising costliness of little transaction.Even, obviously, strong demand is arranged for the faster more cheap electronic payment system more easily that is used to finish financial transaction along with the adopting of electronic payment system very popularly.Further, for the electronic payment system of individuation more demand is arranged also, so that carry out financial transaction like a cork in the mode that is similar to money transaction.
[08] although the use of credit card is more and more universal,, still have huge colony mainly to depend on money transaction, this colony still needs easily and economical electronic payment system sends payment and receive payment.This can cause the generally use of the debit card of advance deposit.Regrettably, debit card only is limited the substituting of money transaction at most, because they mainly are designed to use in the businessman that has bought point of sale (POS) transaction terminal there.If the individual wishes to someone (for example, another people) account transfer and do not have the POS terminal, if not the cooperation businessman that goes to time bank troublesomely or have the POS terminal of having to, such transaction is difficult, or impossible.Required is can reach financial transaction and the electronic payment system that need not directly to relate to the financial institution of third party financial institution or outside between the individual.
[09] though many people can not visit the POS terminal,, most of people can visit portable radio communication device, for example, cell phone or other mobile devices.
[10] handle mobile telephone equipment and other portable sets of communicating by letter by voice, Email, SMS text message, instant message and the Internet explosive growth has been arranged.People usually remember to carry their Mobile or cellular telephone, even they leave behind their wallet or automobile key.Mobile phone is omnipresent in the U.S. and global many countries.In 2005, according to estimates, 21.4 hundred million mobile phone users are arranged.About 80% of the population in the world has mobile phone and covers.Therefore, for allowing mobile phone to send payment and checking is received, just as cash, and the demands that allow to carry out the system that other finance and mobile banking conclude the business are huge.
[11] trial of using honeycomb equipment to create mobile-payment system has partly obtained limited success, because many such system requirements, mobile phone must have the extension wire equipment (or " chip ") that is used to store account balance and account information.When the people who holds phone wished allotted fund, fund was deducted from chip in the point of sale, and transferred into financial institution after a while, and carried out record by financial institution.Obviously, this hysteresis between the time that the time of selling and record are sold is inefficient, just in case before writing down sales data the POS equipment malfunction of businessman, the risk that just exists sales data to lose.In addition, if phone is lost, account balance may be held anyone use of this phone.Although this system can prevent fund preferably and lose and be better than carrying cash,, this system also lacks suitable security and is illegally used by other people with the fund that prevents the account holder.
[12] also there is critical limitations in credit card.Credit card shows that also the possessor has been given certain credit line by bank or other publishers, and it allows the possessor to do shopping in predetermined amount of money scope or extracts cash.Clause based on credit card protocols is collected interest, also collects annual fee to the possessor sometimes.Traditionally, provide a plastic clip that has account number to the possessor.
[13] the credit card trade utilization is come transaction is settled accounts by the proprietary network that businessman checks.Because the proprietary feature of payment system, and credit card trade is subject to swindle, and such system cost is very high.In addition, also participate in many ways in the credit card trade because of having, such system usually is called as " open loop " financial sector.
[14] Figure 34 [prior art] has shown a kind of example of proprietary network, comprises point of sale (POS) terminal 3401, be used for starting transaction in the position of businessman, and the process payment 3402 that is connected with POS terminal 3401 by proprietary network 3403.In some cases, proprietary network only with being connected of the Internet.Process payment 3402 is connected to credit card switching centre 3408 by proprietary network 3404 again.
[15] for starting transaction, the consumer will show credit card 3406 in the POS end, and perhaps the RFID key chain 3407.The RFID key chain is a kind of security token: the small hardware equipment that has embedded memory mechanism.Credit card 3406 and key chain 3407 boths comprise coded message, and the POS terminal detects this information, and is forwarded to transaction processor 3402 by proprietary network 3403.Regrettably, credit card and key chain all can not be worked under the situation of not visiting the POS terminal.
[16] transaction processor 3402 is submitted transaction by private network 3404 to credit card switching centre (communicate processing, clearance with managerial credit card transaction, and the network of the financial entity of clearing).Credit card switching centre is routed to transaction user's credit card issue person 3409 theres.Publisher discerns the consumer based on detected account number, and determines available credit line before approval or refusal transaction.If ratified transaction, then the amount of money is forwarded to the bank processor 3405 of businessman by credit card switching centre, the amount of money is added to the house account that the bank of businessman safeguards.
[17] because the information of transaction is in proprietary transmission over networks, businessman is the privilege and the high monthly service fee of these proprietary network payments of visit of receiving credit card.Businessman also further is appreciable each tranaction costs of transaction payment each time.For example, be to handle the simple transaction of buying the water of an one $1.00 at convenience store, businessman produces 3% of the each tranaction costs of produce $0.25 and dealing money possibly, though if businessman produces a large amount of refusing payment, it is common paying higher expense.After their managerial cost of payment, each tranaction costs can be the appreciable parts of overall expenses, in some cases, and can be greater than the rate of profit of particular commodity.Regrettably, for many small merchant, the summation of the expense of monthly service fee and each transaction may surpass the gross profit that the credit card of their this month is sold.For bigger businessman, tranaction costs hinder degree less for rate of return, but their rate of profit is still a unwelcome erosion.
[18] not only credit card is " expensive " expense items for most of businessmans, and they also often suffer serious swindle and abuse.For example,, then can in the POS terminal, be used, even they are not the possessors by anyone if credit card is stolen.For preventing such use, whether many POS terminals comprise that now the requirement consumer imports the postcode that sends the credit card bill, be the possessor to identify the consumer.Regrettably, postinfo can obtain on the Internet like a cork, and so, can the not be done extraneous information request of transaction of bold thief is frightened.Yet, must import such redundant information and also can make the possessor feel trouble.
[19] last, the open loop access also not exclusively be suitable for those wherein a side be not the person-to-person transaction of businessman.For example, if two students wish to share the expense of a pair of film ticket, a student wishes in the electronics mode to another student's transfer funds.In system,, stop and using even if having only tranaction costs can make that also transaction is very expensive based on credit card.In addition, the student agree to pay monthly fee and with the other fees of the account association of businessman so that visit credit card switching centre also is unlikely.Correspondingly, the open cycle system of being disposed and being operated by the credit card issue person also is suitable for person-to-person financial transaction hardly fully.
[20] therefore, required is economical electronic payment system, makes the account holder can utilize the fund that is equivalent to cash to carry out their financial transaction at any time Anywhere neatly.In addition, also need a kind of " mobile wallet ", people can be used as can be from the cash source visit of the visit of the mobile device such as cell phone.In addition, also need a kind of being used for to carry out the software application of mobile payment and managed service for the consumer, their conducts, for example, the mobile wallet on the mobile phone platform is operated.This moves wallet should be safe, wieldy, and is easy to obtain, so that it is all available to any account holder to carry out the function of mobile payment.In addition, also need a kind of open loop financial transaction system that is easy to pay, the not a large amount of charge related with the open loop financial sector of this financial transaction system for the possessor who participates in financial transaction, businessman and other, has the security of height.Correspondingly, the following example of the present invention and exemplary description are disclosed.

[216] In yet another embodiment, no matter be that payer or payee can identify by near field communication devices such as radio frequency identification equipment (RFID) or near-field communication (NFC) equipment.
[217] account holder and businessman
[218] account holder can extract fund in many ways or do shopping in affiliate businessman there:
[219] mobile phone of (1) mobile phone and businessman;
[220] (2) mobile phone and businessman's point of sale web application;
[221] (3) advance deposit partner debit card;
[222] (4) businessman by wishing to the code letter numeral explicit user of import of services sign product to do shopping;
[223] (5) are by selecting to pay from the electronic business transaction trolley of businessman or Web or mobile applications; Or

[228] many existing products are arranged, potentially, have a large amount of new products will benefit from the present invention.For example, the telephone plant of any support the Internet such as voip phone can be used for implementing the present invention, although can be fixed on an ad-hoc location, not necessarily moves.In other embodiments, can use e-mail address or in many ways as a side who replenishes or replace telephone number to identify participating in financial transaction of telephone number.
[229] be also to be understood that described in the accompanying drawing one or more elements also can with separate or integration mode realize, perhaps even remove or do not work in some cases, can be according to the incompatible use of specific applied field.
[230] for the operation revenue pattern that moves, architecture is transferred accounts in the individuation payment
[231] the mobile individuation payment of operation account transfer architecture provides the chance that produces revenue source, need not the high expense of transaction charge that businessman is participated.Should be realized that in mobile or wireless world, the cellphone subscriber usually is ready to buy a kind of small amount exclusive monthly fee and obtains some service.Correspondingly, produce income by the expense of each transaction of remittance being collected small amount.In an one exemplary embodiment, for the following transaction of the selected amount of money (as $25), the several cents of each tranaction costs.For further specifying problem, in alternative, " each transaction " expense can be Cong $0.05 to $0.10, though can collect any expense, from each transaction less than a cent to several dollars of each transaction.For example, expense can be concluded the business from $0.00001 to $10 at every turn.
[232] expense can be collected to beneficiary and paying party two aspects.Perhaps, can collect the charges to the account holder of remittance.In other embodiments, can collect the number percent of dealing money.In this embodiment, for the higher-value transaction, as, illustrate , $25, collect the charges.Under the preferable case, before the last approval of account holder and mandate are remitted money,, if any, be presented on the approval screen the expense notice.In other embodiments, for some or All Activity, for example,, can not collect the charges for penny ante.So, when little use payment account transfer architecture is carried out the small amount shopping, there is not " each transaction " expense.
[233] be not payment " each transaction " expense, every month exclusive monthly fee that the account holder can select to pay remittance and gathering is used.In this embodiment, there is not " each transaction " expense.Every month charge can change, and the expense of businessman's payment is higher (perhaps, low in some cases) than the expense of personal user's payment.
[234] correspondingly, the embodiments of the invention expection has multiple different revenue source pattern, and specifically, (1) at the side or the both sides that participate in financial transaction, assessment " is concluded the business " at every turn.Under the preferable case, Fee Amount from an about cent to $0.15; (2) monthly payment charge, each account holder pays every month service fee; (3) for surpassing the selected amount of money, as, , $50 as an illustration, transaction, higher tranaction costs, for every other transaction, abandonment cost is used; And (4) value-added service is as the linked accounts service, automatically to write down trade detail or to help to prepare to submit to tax form.Service can obtain to hold the unsteady income or the advertising income of fund, and these go for Merchant Rate (for example, tranaction costs).Perhaps, or in addition, can produce income by the interest of collecting combined account.
[235] Fig. 4 has shown the another kind of implementation of system of the present invention.Fig. 4 has shown an embodiment who uses value-added service between two account holders.As example,,, as quote shown in the arrow 404 then to server platform 403 transmission Payment Request if the account holder related with mobile device 401 starts an account transfer operation to mobile device 402.Payment Request can comprise the optional description of paying matters.For example, the account holder can annotate and comment on the payment item, is the account of disbursement commodity to represent it.Description can be selected from the menu on being presented at mobile device 401.Perhaps, description can be voice or the text message related with Payment Request.
[236] when receiving Payment Request, server 403 is from payer's the account account's allotted fund to the account holder related with mobile device 402.This transaction has taken place in the financial institution of notice management combined account 405, as quotes shown in the arrow 406.So, fund is added among the account related with mobile device 402, and from the account related with mobile device 401.Then, financial institution sends first and confirms, as quotes shown in the arrow 407.
[237] server platform 403 also sends the notice of payment to mobile device 402, as quotes shown in the arrow 408.Send second message to mobile phone 401, point out to pay, as quote shown in the arrow 409.If the user of mobile device 402 is not the account holder, the family of then can opening the books, as quote shown in the arrow 410.Perhaps, the user can extract fund from the ATM of appointment or other facilities related with the financial institution of management merging fund.
[238] then, server platform 403 passes through the description to account and record service 411 transmission dealing money and transaction, writes down transaction, as quotes shown in the arrow 412.After this, the account holder can connect (not shown) by mobile device 401 or by another kind of the Internet, and visit is by the information of their shopping situation of description of account and record service 411 storages and tissue.
[239] current system also helps accounting of robotization more and accounting process.In the prior art, small enterprise's usage billing program (can be stored on the personal computer) prints the paper invoice, sends its client with the paper invoice again.Then, the client must pay this small enterprise, and this is usually undertaken by check in the prior art.In case received check, small enterprise must be related with check with account number.If account number does not write on the check, and the copy of invoice do not send with check, and then the time can be wasted in the coupling of the copy of attempting searching the Zhi Fuyu invoice.In case coupling, small enterprise deposits their bank with check, and data manually are input in their the accounts receivable accounting program.Obviously, this old process is very slow, and effort supports costliness.
[240] yet, utilize the present invention, the option of drawing a bill only need be selected by small enterprise, this option exports to invoice from accounting program, for example, OFX form, or other importings/derivation form that can read by accounting program.Then, this electronic invoice is sent to payment platform (referring to Fig. 3).Payment platform is created " Request Payment " message that sends to the client.When the client ratifies the payment of invoice, payment data by OFX beamed back accounting program in, and fund is put into the account of small enterprise.OFX message is charged to this in accounting program.Because client's accounts receivable sign is their telephone number, therefore, follows the tracks of and write down and simplify manyly.Should be noted that fund on the way can be guaranteed, the check of not returning, or other such problems.
[241] for the account payable transaction, account and record service 411 send OFX message, by illustration, an employee's cost reimbursement (T ﹠amp have been described; E) payment.Fund is transferred into this employee's account, and notifies to their mobile device transmission.Under the preferable case, the present invention has omitted the process that manually input is concluded the business each time in accounting program.
[242] Fig. 5 has shown the further implementation of the system that pays between the individual who moves.As discussed above, specific embodiment of the present invention by Web (for example allows user or client, pass through explorer), WAP (for example, by the mobile Internet browser on mobile phone, smart phone, the personal digital assistant device), SMS (for example, text message by mobile phone), IVR (for example, understand the interactive voice response system of user's voice response or tone from telephone key-press), WSDL (for example, the web services that can conduct interviews by the mobile device such as smart phone) is connected with mobile-payment system.
What [243] system can be by in a plurality of operators is any, as Verizon, Cingular (AT﹠amp; T), Sprint, Nextel, Alltel, Virgin Mobile, Amp ' dMobile, U.S.Cellular, T-Mobile and other operators are connected with wireless telephone.This service also can be connected with the advance deposit phone.Some advantages of mobile operator comprise: based on the income shared model of transmission or reservation; Promote application program download/purchase; Promote network or data to use; Promote SMS to use; Enable " Off bill " payment solution, will help to alleviate surprising " big bill " problem.
[244] mobile-payment system allows for the user many different financial services is provided.The example of some services comprises the payment (P2M) between credit card loading, debit card loading, Automatic Clearing House (ACH) loading, ACH unloading, person-to-person (P2P) payment, remote payment (RPAY), virus-type, individual and the businessman, and recommendation.Other services comprise that ATM (Automatic Teller Machine) (ATM) network loads and unloading, as by NYCE, PLUS, or the STARATM system.System can comprise that also bill payment is integrated, and wherein, the user can be by the interface of their selection, and for example, their mobile phone is paid bill, as wired TV bill, electricity charge list, Internet service bill, telephone bill, household services bill, and other bills.
[245] load the account and be meant, can carry out fund there and handle the account of funds transfer to the mobile-payment system.For example, the user can be loaded into fund user's mobile-payment system account from check account or credit card, and this mobile-payment system account can be managed by the financial cooperation partner, or is managed by the operator of mobile-payment system.

[315] implementation of the present invention can comprise any in the function as described above.In system of the present invention, can realize top embodiment in combination respectively or with any other embodiment.
[316] the specific implementation mode has been described and has been used the identifier of Mobile Directory Number as the user.Yet, for each user, can use any identifier, as any telephone number (for example, home phone number, office telephone number, IP phone telephone number, facsimile recorder or pager), e-mail address, instant message user name, social security number, driving license number, membership number, credit number, debit card number, or other.
[317] Email has been discussed as the technology that between the user, sends message, still, also can have been used other communication technologys, comprised voice mail, automated voice message, instant message, or text message.Two representatives among a lot of users that user A and user B only can have as system.System of the present invention can have the user of any amount.
[318] Fig. 1 has shown an overview block diagram, and this block scheme has been described the mobile-payment system that utilizes between two or more people of the present invention.In an embodiment of system of the present invention, user A remits money to user B by unique identifier or ID.Unique identifier can use at large.Example comprises telephone number (for example, landline road, IP phone, mobile phone, pager or facsimile recorder), e-mail address, social security number, account number, registration number, the instant message user name, and other.This identifier can be used for contact user, is independent of through system of the present invention (for example, telephone number or e-mail address can be contacted directly the user, and not relate to native system).
[319] each unique identifier can be only related with a user, to guarantee account and security of system.User A also can provide the details of financial transaction, as the amount of money that will transfer accounts, or the form of payment, or the combination of these details, if the requests verification account then should also provide the PIN number.
[320] system is designated the member with user A, in some implementation, checks the PIN number, verifying account, and the account's of inspection user A remaining sum.Account at user A does not have enough funds to carry out under the situation of financial transaction, and system sends an electronic notification to user A, and insufficient funds are described.Conclude the business if the account of user A has enough funds, then system also gives user B by any suitable link (comprising mobile technology) with pending Notice Of Transactions.Because the instant electronic notification that user A and B receive, they will feel, financial transaction almost at once, or in real time or be close to and carry out in real time.
[321] in one embodiment, system can allow the user that the preference of the acceptance of relevant transaction is set.If user B has selected automatic acceptance setting (selected when the user registers) in system, be used for automatically accepting payment, fund transfers into the account of user B immediately from the account of user A.If user B has selected manual acceptance setting, then only just account transfer after user B approval transaction.System can comprise that also the user stipulates that they accept transaction with a member from appointment, and is perhaps opposite, the setting that they will can not accept to pay from the member of appointment.
[322] if in the certain fate (as 30 days) that is provided with by system also not approval transaction of user B afterwards, then some embodiment at least of system can be configured to automatically Cancel Transaction.In such scheme, system sends electronic notification to user A and user B, notifies them, and transaction is cancelled.User B also can have the option of refusal transaction, under these circumstances, by electronic notification, notifies the user A, refusal to pay.
[323] have under the situation of enough funds at user A, user B accepts transaction, marks this amount of money from the account of user A, and puts the account of user B under.In certain embodiments, depend on the mode of safeguarding the account, because the intrinsic delay in the electronic financial business system, finishing of transaction can be delayed.
[324] presented the concrete example of some flow processs in this application.Yet, should be appreciated that the specific flow process and the step that the invention is not restricted to present here.Flow process of the present invention can have the other step of not necessarily describing in this application, the different step of some steps that replacement presents, the subclass of less step or the step that presents, the step different, or any combination of these situations with the order of the step that presents.
[325] in addition, the step in other implementations of the present invention needn't be identical with the step that is presented.As a specific example, for illustrate convenient for the purpose of, employing be that the Mobile Directory Number of user B is as unique or electronic identifier (ID).In other embodiments of the invention, identifier is not limited to the telephone number of user B.Perhaps, identifier can be instant message user name, the e-mail address of user B, or any other suitable identifier.
[326] under the situation that does not depart from scope of the present invention, another example of the possible variation in the flow process is the particular message that receives in user A and the B various steps on stream.In other embodiments of the invention, these message can be different from those message that particularly point out in this application, and perhaps, some message will can not be sent out, and these message can combine.

[338] in the specific implementation mode, mobile-payment system does not allow the user of existing registration to pay from unregistered user's request.In another embodiment, the user is allowed to pay from unregistered user's request.
[339] Xia Mian flow process A has shown a kind of implementation of concluding the business between user (user A) who registers and unregistered user (user B).
[340] flow process A
Step Operation
1 Existing user A determines to converge some moneys to user B (unregistered user).A utilizes the Mobile Directory Number of B to send message and dealing money first to mobile-payment system.
2 Mobile-payment system checks whether the account of A has enough funds and finish transaction.
3 If insufficient funds then send message first to A: " insufficient funds.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " B can not receive message.If enough funds are arranged, then enter next step.
4 Check that B is the user or the unregistered user of registration.If the Mobile Directory Number of B is not identified as the user of registration, then A receives following message: " your request is accepted, with processed.[tel #], [value], the pending non-registered users of [trans #] request."
5 Account at A reserves this dealing money.
6 B receives following message: " payment is arranged, pending, from [tel #], [value], the registration of [trans #] system website of inviting."
7 Before B approval payment, A can cancel payment.If so, will send message to A and B: " payment is cancelled.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " if after A starts transaction and over and done with more than 30 days before B approval payment, then transaction is cancelled automatically.Then, will send message to A and B: " payment is cancelled.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
After past 30 days, the reservation of the dealing money among the account of elimination A.
8 B registers to mobile-payment system.In system, create an account for B.
9 After B successfully registered, notice B illustrated that A wishes to remit money to B.Provide a picture to B, inquiry B is the payment of accepting A, the payment of refusal A, and still request is changed the pending transaction of A.
10 If B rejects payment, then transaction cancellation sends message first to A: " payment is rejected.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
11 If B asks change, then will present a picture to B, B can consult or ask the clause of the transaction of A is changed.If B does not ask change, then enter step 13.
12 If B wishes change transaction (for example, the change dealing money), then send the message of the relevant change of proposing first to A.A can accept or refuse the change of the proposal of B.
13 If B accepts the payment from A, then whether systems inspection A has enough funds and finishes transaction.If no, will send message: " insufficient funds to A and B.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
14 If A has enough funds, will send message to A: " payment is accepted.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
15 Mark dealing money from the account of A, and put the account of B under.
[341] in the superincumbent step 1, user A passes through the Mobile Directory Number of user B to mobile-payment system identifying user B.In other implementations of the present invention, user A can pass through other means, as e-mail address, the instant message title of user B, or other unique identifiers, come identifying user B.These identifiers can be the electronic mark identifiers, can be the identifiers that perhaps is used for even identifies in the environment outside of mobile-payment system B.In other words, identifier not necessarily has only (for example, the account number) that mobile-payment system just has.
[342] in step 2, mobile-payment system checks whether the account of A has enough funds and finish transaction.Mobile-payment system also can be carried out PIN and account verification or other verification steps, is not suspended with the account who guarantees A, has enough funds or the like.For clarity sake, be omitted in the superincumbent flow process of these steps.
[343] in step 3, mobile-payment system is by SMS message informing user A, insufficient funds.In another embodiment of the present invention, user A can receive this message by other technologies, as Email, SMS message, or other forms of mobile communication.In certain embodiments of the present invention, the user can must not receive this message, as when user A decision and the message to system points out not receive.This flow process also can be applied to Email payment system or other payment systems, and is mobile, non-moving (that is, the situation that mobile phone is not participated in business), or other pattern.
[344] in step 4, mobile-payment system determines that user B is unregistered, and gives user A with this advisory.In another embodiment of the present invention, system can allow user A to send payment to user B, no matter the unregistered state of user B so, can be skipped this step.
[345] in step 5, mobile-payment system is reserved this dealing money on the account of A.Dealing money can not mark from the account of A, marks in step 15 up to this transaction.
[346] in step 6, send message first for unregistered user B by mobile-payment system, request user B registers to system.This message can be passed through SMS message, Email, MMS message, instant message, or other forms of mobile communication sends in the mobile phone of user B.
[347] in step 7, the option that can cancel payment before user B accepts payment is provided for user A.System also can be configured to, if after user A pays and user B accept before the payment over and done withly more than 30 days, then payment was automatically lost efficacy.The fate that transaction automatically is cancelled can change.For example, fate can be any numeral, as 5,10,14,15,16,21, or greater or less than 30.Depend on implementation, user A and B needn't the notified message that they conclude the business and have cancelled.
[348] in step 8, when user B registered, system was a user B create account user.In another embodiment of the present invention, system can not require that user B registers to system, but can be automatically with the bank account of systematic connection to user B.
[349] in step 9, only at user B after system registers, send relevant user A request just for user B and send the message of payment.In another embodiment of the present invention, user B receives the message of the payment of relevant user A, need not to register to system.
[350] in the step 10 of current embodiment, send the SMS message that relevant user B Cancels Transaction for user A.In another embodiment of the present invention, system sends different message for user A, can send by other forms of mobile communication.
[351] in step 11, change in some way is provided or has revised the option of concluding the business to B.In one implementation, "Yes" button, "No" button are provided for user B, and " request change " button.Perhaps, " request change " button can be called " negotiation " button, because by the chance of one or more clauses of changing transaction is provided, the chance of consulting with user A is provided for user B.Some clauses of the transaction that user B can seek to change comprise the amount of money, which account are fund put under among, and the distribution that recommendation takes, and what bank is with account executive.
[352] in step 12,, send the notice of a relevant change of proposing then for user A if user B request is changed transaction.Give the chance of the change of the proposal that user A provides acceptance or refusing user's B.In one embodiment of the invention, user A utilizes system may select the change that automatically declines an offer in his initial setting up.Then, send the message that user A refuses to change automatically can for user B.If user A refuses change, no matter be manually or automatically, the option that sends the change of another proposal to user A is provided can for user B, perhaps, the chance of accepting original transaction is provided also can for user B.As required, these steps can repeat, and up to reaching an agreement, perhaps Cancel Transaction.If reach an agreement, then forward step 13 to.
[353] in step 13, mobile-payment system is checked the account of user A once more, with the checking fund, if suitably, and then by SMS message informing user A, insufficient funds.In another embodiment of the present invention, user A can receive this message with other forms, as Email, MMS message, or other forms of mobile communication, perhaps, also can not receive this message.If the account of user A has enough funds, then forward step 14 to.
[354] in step 14, send a SMS notice that is similar to receipt for user A, notify him to conclude the business and finish.In another embodiment, send other forms of notice can for user A, as by Email, instant message, MMS message, or other forms of mobile communication.Some embodiment of system returns user B and sends notice, and transaction is finished, though in certain embodiments, the notice of not finishing needs to send.
[355] in step 15, carry out funds transfer.Depend on implementation, putting and mark transaction under needn't carry out in real time.Because the inherent delay in the electronic funds system, transaction may be after handling beginning about 60 seconds or manyly just can finish.
[356] depend on the design preference of specific implementation mode, the step of any amount among the flow process A with any combination, can be got up with any other mobile-payment system path combination, other flow processs that comprise among the application being discussed.
[357] Xia Mian flow process B has shown the another kind of implementation of carrying out transaction method between user (user A, member) who registers and unregistered user (user B).
[358] flow process B
Step Operation
1 Existing user A determines to converge some moneys to user B (unregistered user).A utilizes the Mobile Directory Number of B to send message and dealing money first to mobile-payment system.
2 Mobile-payment system checks whether the account of A has enough funds and finish transaction.
3 If insufficient funds then send message first to A: " insufficient funds.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " B can not receive message.If enough funds are arranged, then enter next step.
4 Check that B is the user or the unregistered user of registration.If the Mobile Directory Number of B is not identified as the user of registration, then A receives following message: " your payment is pending.Non-registered users must be opened an account.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
5 B receives following message: " you receive money! [tel #], [value], the registration of [trans #] system website of inviting."
6 Initial personal account from A marks funds transaction, and puts the B in the non-registered users combined account under.
7 If mark and put under Fail Transaction, send message then for A and B: " payment failure.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " otherwise, mark and put under the trade fair success.Do not send message.
8 If over and done with more than 30 days and also not registration of B after A starts transaction, then transaction is cancelled automatically.Then, will send message to A and B: " payment is cancelled.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " above step 6 in the transaction that marks and put under of request put upside down.To put the personal account of A from the dealing money that the non-registered users combined account obtains under.
9 B registers in system website, and becomes registered no card user.Fund transfers into nothing engaging and the account of B from the non-registered users combined account.
10 For B makes the plastics debit card, and send B.
11 After B received card, B activated this card by dialing interactive voice response (IVR) system.In activation, when B was connected to the IVR system, fund was not from there being the personal account that engaging and account transfer into B.
[359] implementation among the flow process B is similar to top flow process A.Yet A is different with flow process, and flow process B does not reserve the dealing money (step 5) of flow process A in the account of A.In the step 4 of flow process B, because do not have to reserve in the account of A and do not mark from the account of A, money still can spend by mobile payment or debit payments for user A, up to successfully mark dealing money from the account of user A in step 6.
[360] in step 5, send the message of relevant transaction first for user B, and require user B to register to system.
[361] in step 6, fund is marked.Depend on implementation, such transaction can be asynchronous thread, because the inherent delay in the electronic funds system, transaction may be after handling beginning about 60 seconds or manyly just can finish.The amount that postpones is uncertain, because there is the various factors influence to postpone.Generally speaking, postponing approximately is 60 seconds, and still, if for example, electrical network breaks down, then postponing will be much bigger.
[362] specifically, the payment processes of system needn't be carried out with the method for synchronization.A certain amount of requests verification at first will be carried out.In one implementation, the notice that sends to the consumer can point out that request is accepted, and will handle at once.Async server end line journey will start, with the actual treatment Payment Request.In one implementation, send notice to the user after, carry out asynchronous thread.This can provide the response of relevant transaction faster to the user.The asynchronous part of payment processes may be failed.For example, this may be to use and cause insufficient funds to cause owing to card time.Under the situation of asynchronous payment processes failure, will notify the user.
[363] in one implementation, two kinds of combined accounts are arranged, (i) non-registered users combined account does not (ii) have engaging and account.All non-registered users funds will be incorporated in the non-registered users combined account.If user A is the no card user that does not also have personal account, then the fund of A will leave in does not have among engaging and the account.In another kind of implementation of the present invention, non-registered users combined account and nothing engaging and account have single combined account.In another embodiment of the present invention, account to A and B in combined account puts under and marks, and " secret room " bank transaction of management normally utilizes the other system transaction jointly to carry out at when finishing in one day (or another special time) in batches in the affiliate of bank (affiliate handles debit card).
[364] in another kind of implementation of the present invention, single combined account type is arranged, wherein, there are two kinds of users of non-registered users and no card user to exist.For the funds transfer between such user, fund will rest in the same combined account.In another implementation of the present invention, two or more combined account types is arranged.
[365] in step 9, after B registered, B became no card user.As no card user, B can remit money as the user of registration and receive remittance.Yet because B does not also receive his card, therefore, B can not be by sticking into row consumption.In one implementation, after successfully registering, user B in 24 hours, creates the personal account of user B.Yet the account will not have fund, be activated in its step 11 below.In another embodiment of the present invention, do not use and do not have engaging and account, fund directly transfers into the account of user B from user A account.
[366] in step 10, need usually to spend about 7 to 10 working days, make new card, user B receives it by mailing.In another embodiment of the present invention, user B receives another kind of card, as credit card, also can select not receiving card.
[367] in step 11, when user B activated his card, user B became the user that the card registration is arranged, and no longer is no card user.In not using the embodiment that does not have engaging and account, when card is activated, do not need the remaining sum of transferring.
[368] Xia Mian flow process C has shown the another kind of implementation of carrying out transaction method between user (user A, member) who registers and unregistered user (user B).
[369]
Step Operation
1 Existing user A determines to converge some moneys to user B (unregistered user).A utilizes the Mobile Directory Number of B to send message and dealing money first to mobile-payment system.
2 Mobile-payment system checks whether the account of A has enough funds and finish transaction.
3 If insufficient funds then send message first to A: " insufficient funds.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " B can not receive message.If enough funds are arranged, then enter next step.
4 Check that B is the user or the unregistered user of registration.If the Mobile Directory Number of B is not identified as the user of registration, then A receives following message:
" your request is accepted, with processed.[tel #], [value], the pending non-registered users of [trans #] request."
5 B receives following message: " payment is arranged, pending, from [tel #], [value], the registration of [trans #] system website of inviting."
6 Before B approval payment, A can cancel payment.If so, will send message to A and B: " payment is cancelled.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " if after A starts transaction and over and done with more than 30 days before B approval payment, then transaction is cancelled automatically.Then, will send message to A and B: " payment is cancelled.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
7 B registers to system.In system, create an account for B.
8 After B successfully registered, notice B illustrated that A wishes to remit money to B.Provide a picture to B, whether inquiry B accepts the payment of A.
9 If B rejects payment, then transaction cancellation sends message first to A: " payment is rejected.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
10 If B accepts the payment from A, then whether systems inspection A has enough funds and finishes transaction.If no, will send message: " insufficient funds to A and B.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
11 If A has enough funds, will send message to A: " payment is accepted.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
12 Mark dealing money from the account of A, and put the account of B under.
[370] implementation among the flow process C is similar to top flow process A.Yet A is different with flow process, and flow process C does not reserve the dealing money (step 5) of flow process A in the account of A.The above discussion to flow process A and B also correspondingly is applicable to flow process C.
[371] in one implementation, although the payment of A is pending,, A also is allowed to the cancellation payment, and correspondingly notifies to B.In step 8, having under the situation of a plurality of pending payments, can present the tabulation of pending payment to B, and require B to point out to accept or each pending payment of refusal.If (for example, the failure of step 12) contingency is then with both advised for async server end line journey.
[372] Xia Mian flow process D has shown a kind of implementation of carrying out transaction method between user (user A) who does not have card and no card user (user B).
[373] flow process D
Step Operation
1 Existing user A (do not have card registration user) decision converges some moneys for user B (no card user).A utilizes the Mobile Directory Number of B to send message and dealing money first to mobile-payment system.
2 Mobile-payment system checks whether the account of A has enough funds and finish transaction.
3 If insufficient funds then send message first to A: " insufficient funds.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " B can not receive message.If enough funds are arranged, then enter next step.
4 Check that B is (do not have card or card is arranged) user or non-registered users of registration.Send following message: " you receive money because B is the user of registration! [tel #], [value], [trans #] "
5 Check that B is the user who does not have the user of card registration or the card registration is arranged.Because B is no card user, begins A from no card user combined account and mark transaction funds and put B in the no card user combined account under.
7 If mark and put under Fail Transaction, send message then for A and B: " payment failure.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
8 If B has opened automatic acceptance, then the A of fund from do not have engaging and account transfers into B.Do not send message.
9 If B has closed automatic acceptance, then mark and put under transaction and only after B approval transaction, just carry out.
10 If over and done with more than 30 days and also not approval of B after A starts transaction, then transaction is cancelled automatically.Then, will send message to A and B:
" payment is cancelled.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " if B rejection payment, then transaction cancellation sends message first to A: " payment would be rejected.[tel #], [value], [trans #] "
11 If B accepts transaction, and A and B be still no card user, and then the A of fund from do not have engaging and account transfers into B.If B accepts transaction, and A is no card user, and B has card user, and then the A of fund from do not have engaging and account transfers into the personal account of B.If A and B both have become card user is arranged, then fund transfers into the personal account of B from the personal account of A.If A has become card user is arranged, still, B is still no card user, and then fund transfers into the B that does not have engaging and the account from the personal account of A.
[374] remarks that provided above also correspondingly are applicable to flow process D.For example, in step 3, in the account of A, do not reserve dealing money.Can from the account of A, not mark dealing money.Up to successfully mark dealing money from the account of A in next step before, money still can spend by mobile payment or debit payments for user A.
[375] in certain embodiments, user B can be provided with white list or blacklist.The white list regulation, B accepts payment with a user's (can be stored in user's the data) from appointment.The blacklist regulation, B will can not accept payment from member's (yet can be stored in user's the data) of appointment.Various implementation of the present invention can have only white list, have only blacklist, or white list and blacklist are arranged.Unwarranted or be prevented from remitter is because white list or blacklist after they attempt the payment failure, will notify them that mistake has taken place.

[384] remarks that provided above also correspondingly are applicable to flow process G.
[385] flow process H has shown the recommendation flow process of non-registered users.User A is the user of registration, and user B is a non-registered users.
Step Operation
1 Existing user A determines to converge some moneys to user B (unregistered user).A utilizes the Mobile Directory Number of B to send message and dealing money first to mobile-payment system.
2 Mobile-payment system checks whether the account of A has enough funds and finish transaction.
3 If insufficient funds then send message first to A: " insufficient funds.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " B can not receive message.
If enough funds are arranged, then enter next step.
4 Check that B is the user or the unregistered user of registration.If the Mobile Directory Number of B is not identified as the user of registration, then A receives following message: " B is not the member.We have invited B to add system.[tel #], [value], [trans #] " can be from the account of A the deduction fund.
5 B receives following message: " A attempts the remittance to you.[tel #], [value], the registration of [trans #] system website of inviting."
6 B registers to system website, and becomes registered no card user.
7 A also receives following message: " B is the user of registration now, you are ready to submit to once more your transaction? "
8 A receives recommendation bonus (for example , $5) in his account.
9 A utilizes the Mobile Directory Number of B to resend message and dealing money first to mobile-payment system.If then transaction will be handled as the user of registration and the user's of registration transaction.
[386] remarks that provided above also correspondingly are applicable to flow process H.In this flow process, fund can automatically not transfer into B from A after B registers.On the contrary, B is invited adding, adds fashionablely at B, and (step 9), whether inquiry A wishes to attempt once more remitting money to B to send first message to A.If A wishes remittance, so, the follow-up A and the user of the processing between the B and any one registration are similar to account transfer between the user of registration.
[387] implementation can comprise recommendation bonus (for example , $5).Message in the step 4 can comprise the notice that mails to A, illustrates to add fashionablely at B, and A will receive the recommendation bonus.After B registered in step 6, user A put qualified acquisition into account's the recommendation bonus of A (referring to step 8).Step 8 still can be carried out before or after step 7 and 9 after step 6.
[388] in the various implementations of system, can only pay the recommendation bonus to the remitter, only to the payee, or remitter and payee pay the recommendation bonus.In addition, in the alternative of recommendation flow process, after user B registered, money can automatically transfer into B from user A, and user A needn't resend payment transaction.In another embodiment, flow process is: (1) user A (member) gives user B (non-member's) $X.(2) systems inspection user B finds that user B is not the member.(3) $X are marked as in the account of A pending.(4) notice B illustrates that A invites B to add system.The fund that the prize funds of wait Shou Qu $Y+A sends.(5) B selects to be registered as the member, and the award of receiving immediately (in the account).(6) then, B receives message first, points out from the payment of A Jie Shoudao $X.(7) in $X from the account of A.(8) pending " virus-type " transaction can be cancelled by A, but still can handle this invitation.(9) if B is not accepting the invitation in the section sometime, the then pending amount of money is released back the account.

[421] closed loop payment scheme
[422] in one embodiment, the invention provides the method that is used to operate as the payment account transfer architecture of closed loop payment system.The closed loop financial transaction system is convenient to pay, and does not have a large amount of payment charges related with the closed loop financial sector, and for the possessor, businessman and other each side that participate in financial transaction, has the security of height.
[423] the closed loop payment system is such, and the assembly of Value Transfer process is worked under the entity control that has this payment system.Because the owner has controlled this system, therefore, underlying price is also under possessory control.By contrast, cash and check are open payment systems, and each participant is provided with price for their processing of transaction, need not to pay the Virtual network operator expense.
[424] Figure 35 has shown the transaction flow in the closed loop payment system.Specifically, when from a mobile device 3501 when another mobile device 3502 is paid, to paying server 3503 transmission transfer request.Ask by reference arrow 3504 to be represented.The account holder's that server 3503 visit and mobile device 3501 are related T-ledgers (as quoting shown in the arrow 3505), if satisfied as some the speed rule shown in 3506, then the amount of money with appointment transfers into payee T-ledgers (as quoting shown in the arrow 3507).In case fund has transferred into the payee, shown in 3508, server 3503 just sends notification message first to the payee, as shown in 3509.At last, payer account possessor receives the confirmation message from server 3503, and illustrating concludes the business finishes.Under the preferable case, whole closed-loop system is had by single entities.System is by account holder's filling or loading, and the account holder is owing to the account balance of safeguarding on paying server, and acquisition dollar (referring to a Figure 36).
[425] the closed loop payment system has a plurality of advantages.Major advantage is, the owner of system can control the expense of collecting to remitter and payee, for the fund in the system of being loaded into, the chance of earn interest is arranged.The interest of all funds of the payment system owner in can the earning system is converted back to dollar or unload back dollar up to them.Along with greater functionality is added, owing to increasing of expense and remaining sum, it is more lucrative that closed-loop system can become.
[426] comprise for the participation benefit that the account holder brings:
[427] (1) safety-account holder's fund is locked in the mobile device safely rather than cash must be contained in pocket or the wallet;
[428] how much (2) security-checking in time looks to have among the account available;
[429] (3) information-be easy to obtain account activity and balance amount information;
[430] (4) convenience-account holder can be that unit is in the whole world or stride the mobile fund in ground, room with the second.
[431] benefit of bringing to businessman comprises:
[432] (1) safety-do not have cash;
[433] (2) less processing cost-do not count cash income, no effects is single, no tally sheet;
[434] (3) less tranaction costs-than the expense of credit card are low; And
[435] (4) fund guaranteed-no returned check.
[436] affiliate of businessman has scarcely ever chance earning and handles income at the transaction that the transaction or be used for of deposits funds in the advance deposit credit account put up cash to the account holder.Depend on implementation, when fund was added among the account, commission can be earned by businessman.
[437] independently closed loop payment system of the present invention is designed to integrate with partner's bank account.This account can be the account who is pre-existing in, perhaps, for the user of unbanked, can be by cooperative bank's create account user.
[438] closed-loop system has been safeguarded user profile database, the name and the consensus data that comprise the account holder, the information that being used for of each certain accounts possessor signs to risk, and will be used for loading or the bank account information of the account's of unloading fund link from this account to advance deposit credit account.User profile database also needs to satisfy the needs of consumers and the website of customer-oriented service, is used for collection log-on data when open.Under the preferable case, this closed-loop system is connected with the credit card exchange system, with available credit line under the visit credit card account.Perhaps, or in addition in certain embodiments, as noted earlier, current closed-loop system also is connected with various atm networks.
[439] paying server has been safeguarded " T " account record for each account holder.This account follows the tracks of each account holder's the transaction and the ledgers of remaining sum.With T type accounts database together, paying server provides history and balance data also by mobile device and satisfy the needs of consumers and the website of customer service.
[440] in order fund to be changed over to the closed loop payment system or to produce this closed loop payment system, the present invention provides three kinds of functions for different account holders.
[441] some account holder has bank account in the bank that is not the affiliate.This system allows the account holder to travel to and fro between this mobile fund in bank account ground by the ACH system.Owing to there is risk, the user must carry out risk control, can comprise the availability of funds (for example, just can use up to Thursday from the fund of your bank account account transfer on Monday) that delay is transferred.This defer time can shorten (move credit report or obtain financial statement) by extra signature.The shortening of time delay also can occur owing to the user has good credit rating there or utilizes the credit card that keeps to guarantee payment in affiliate operator.In certain embodiments, the method is not first-selected, though these risks can minimize by the participation of operator, operator can provide some signed data and enough users to prove that extra signature is proper.
[442] under the situation that the account holder is registered owing to the relation with cooperative bank, be connected with current deposit account (check account) system real-time and allow the account holder to obtain remaining sum and in real time transaction is charged among their account.
[443] in other cases, the account holder has an account at Bancorp Bank or similar financial institution, and bank founds banking, still, all websites, check, and customer statement will have the relationship brand.The method will allow us providing the relationship brand with partner's bank account (this account is free to the user) in the integrated environment closely.
[444] the present invention relates to tranaction costs closed loop financial transaction service lower or no deal expense and improved safety.Embodiments of the invention are included between any reciprocity partner or pay the method for account transfer quickly and easily between consumer and businessmans.A kind of implementation of this method comprises mobile telephone equipment, cell phone (mobile phone) or similar equipment, and the account such as advance deposit credit account also authorizes from the mechanism of this account to the opposing party's transfers as visit.Additional embodiments of the present invention relates to various affiliates, comprise mobile-phone carrier, nationwide brand businessman, and financial services provider, together with payment platform, this payment platform provide for the individual use they mobile phone or other telecommunication apparatus pay the bill fast, easy mode.
[445], the figure illustrates closed loop financial transaction system according to an embodiment of the invention now please referring to Figure 36.In this transaction system, consumer and businessman, one group of two or more consumer, perhaps one group of two or more businessman can finish financial transaction apace safely, and tranaction costs are seldom or do not have.
[446] this example of closed loop financial transaction system is utilized advance deposit credit account, therefore, can comprise point of sale (POS) terminal 3612, wherein, can be as in the prior art systems, using traditional debit card 3606-by in the magnetic reader 3613 related, swiping the card with POS terminal 3612.Card 3606 provides the account's who checks the account holder second approach.
[447] in certain embodiments, POS terminal 3612 further comprises near field (NF) antenna and circuit 3614.NF antenna and circuit 3614 detect such as the mobile phone of supporting NF, support the passive device the mobile phone of bluetooth, or other short range transmission equipment such as RFID or bar code related with mobile phone 3618.So, when mobile phone 3618 was positioned near POS terminal, account information was automatically transferred to the POS terminal.In other embodiments, POS terminal 3612 is included in to set up when transaction starts with the mobile phone that is connected of transaction processor 3630 (being also referred to as paying server or server) and connects.Should be appreciated that transaction processor 3630 comprises one or more server farms or data center, they can handle the transaction a large amount of the time.Understand well as current techniques, such server farm disperses on the geographic position usually, and adopts suitable technology, is linked at together, with the view accurately of the real-time status of safeguarding all accounts.The POS terminal directly transfers into paying server from the POS terminal with dealing money, authorizes so that connect 3615 by mobile phone.Paying server 3630 calling accounts possessors' mobile phone 3619, trade detail for confirmation.Those skilled in the art will recognize that the POS terminal can include only magnetic reader 3613, NF antenna and circuit 3614, and in the mobile phone 3615 one or two.It is also understood that POS terminal 3612 is related with businessman usually.

[473] in one embodiment, the present invention is the method that comprises the following steps: receive a plurality of businessmans contribution and think that member's payment system provides with funds; Businessman's contribution is put into the merging account in trust, and wherein, interest is not received to their contribution by businessman; Allow a plurality of consumers freely to become the user of the registration of mobile-payment system; Allow the user of registration freely to load fund or therefrom unload fund to the current account of member's payment system; And, allow businessman freely to load fund or from wherein unloading fund to the current account of member's payment system, thereby, provide with funds for member's payment system with the interest of merging account in trust.
[474] Figure 41 has shown that the loading in support of the present invention member's the payment system implementation trusts operation.
[475] Figure 42 has shown the consumer's registration process in the payment system of supporting the member.
[476] Figure 43 has shown loading and the unloading operation in the payment system of supporting the member.
[477] Figure 44 has shown the purchase transaction in the payment system of supporting the member.
[478] in one implementation, businessman's contribution can be the interior monthly payment plan of section sometime.The amount of money that depends on contribution, businessman will have bigger access rights or privilege in system.For example, the fixing amount of contribution can be arranged, the quantity of the transaction of qualified release extra-pay ground being carried out corresponding to businessman.In addition, businessman can also carry out follow-up donation, to enlarge the privilege of businessman.
[479] in one implementation, member's payment system allows the user of registration by the user-pay of mobile phone request to another registration.Member's payment system can allow the user who registers to pay the bill to businessman by the mobile phone request.
[480] member's payment system can be managed the user's of registration transaction record.Member's payment system can be managed the transaction record of businessman.Member's payment system can be managed the user of registration and the transaction record of businessman.This will reduce the cost of businessman, because they do not need to manage themselves transaction record.
[481] but contribution is reimbursement, so, businessman does not participate in after can determining.For example, when the fund of this businessman to member's payment system is contributed given back in businessman request, the user of registration will no longer be allowed to this businessman's account transfer.
[482] generally speaking, be under participant's the situation of member's payment system in businessman, do not collect regular regular tranaction costs to this businessman.System is subsidized by the unsteady income of the merging account in trust that comprises businessman's contribution.
[483] Zhu Ce user can by Automatic Clearing House (ACH) or directly at least one in the savings account (DDA) come the load or unload fund.In the further implementation of system, a lot of extra loadings and the mode of unloading fund are provided for the user of registration and businessman.For example, the user of registration can select to allow user's the paycheck or the part of paycheck directly be stored in the system.
[484] in one implementation, this method comprises: the user who allows registration pays to businessman by the mandate of member's payment system by using two factor mandated programs.This two factors mandate can comprise (for example, PIN, mother's birth name, the challenging problem) known to (1) (for example, phone, card) that the people had and (2) people.For example, system can allow the user who registers correctly to import personal identification number or PIN by user's mobile phone and the user who uses registration, pays to businessman by the mandate of member's payment system.
[485] alternatively, also can provide a debit card for the user of each registration.Utilize debit card, the user can not have, and for example, under the situation of mobile phone, charges.
[486] virtual combined account
[487] please referring to Figure 45, in the specific implementation mode in one aspect of the invention, for avoiding being each banker's record general ledger, mobile-payment system is configured to, and is general ledger of virtual combined account record of each country.This can reduce the clearing and the operation costs of system.Perhaps, virtual combined account can be configured to, and is that the group of combined account represents, wherein, according to any parameter easily or parameter group, as the affiliate of bank, geography, country, size or the like, select those combined accounts, so that be included in the particular virtual combined account.In certain embodiments, realize single virtual combined account, perhaps, realized the hierarchy of virtual combined account.Should be appreciated that virtual combined account is a large database basically, wherein, for comprehensive combined account in this virtual combined account has been safeguarded transaction record.
[488] because fund will be retained in the virtual combined account, therefore, the owner of virtual combined account (for example, mobile-payment system service provider) will receive the unsteady income or the interest of this fund.The payee of the unsteady income of virtual combined account can be distributed to some amount of money cooperative bank's (they no longer receive the unsteady income of their general ledger).An embodiment of method who is used to distribute floating fund is as follows:
[489] (1) will be considered to from this bank by the account that cooperative bank obtains.For example, if the Ci of bank sells the mobile-payment system service, and absorb client A, so, client A is he be marked as in life " being absorbed by Ci ".In such embodiments,, a field is arranged in basis, point out this specific user from which source recruits for each user record (discuss in other places in asking).Some example in possible source comprises direct mobile payment service, cooperative bank, corporate finance mechanism, and cooperation mobile phone provider.
[490] when finish every day, the mobile-payment system service is with the amount of money of estimating to be retained in the mobile-payment system services accounts that is marked as the fund that is absorbed by each cooperative bank.Let us is called X-Ci, X-BA, X-ING with this estimated amount, and wherein, Ci, BA and ING are the examples of financial institution or bank.
[491] for example, in Figure 45, member 6504044762 is absorbed by Bank One Corp. Ci, and member 4154443214 is absorbed by the 3rd BA of bank.In this example, the member identifies by telephone number.The example of the telephone number of the U.S. comprises 4158675309 or 2128675309.In a kind of implementation of the present invention, the phone number format of input can be got rid of area code, as 7762323 or 5550123.For example, this can be used for the situation that payee and remitter are positioned at same area code.The additional area code digit will automatically be filled by system.As other places are pointed in this application, the member can identify by the identifier of other types, as instant message user name, e-mail address, social security number, driving license number, and account number, and other.
[492] (2) let us is called Y with remainder.This is the estimated amount of the fund that is not marked as absorption that will keep in the mobile-payment system services accounts.These are the accounts by the mobile-payment system service directly absorbs or the non-banking affiliate absorbs.In Figure 45, this is represented by telephone number 6508622730, is expressed as by secondary bank MSPS (mobile-payment system service provider) to absorb.
[493] (3) every day, for example, in the time of appointment, the mobile-payment system service will be calculated the suitable fund that will be retained in the cooperative bank.For example, can be according to following formula: X-cooperative bank adds the number percent of Y.Number percent will be consulted when setting up bank's partnership relation, and will depend on the level of selling cost.For example, for Ci, the mobile-payment system service can be placed on 10% of Y in the mobile-payment system services accounts of Ci.Number percent can be any number percent, as, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 or other.Number percent can be integer, can be mark also, comprises 1.1,1.2,1.3,1.5, less than 1, less than 2, less than 3, less than 6, and other.
[494] the method can avoid putting down in writing the cost of a plurality of general ledgers and net settlement accurately.Also will give the deserved portion that cooperative bank gets the fund of serving more than mobile-payment system.
[495] Figure 46 has shown according to an embodiment of the invention shopping method fast.In one embodiment, pictorial poster, newspaper advertisement or television advertising comprise the mechanism that allows the shopper to obtain the detail that is presented at the relevant product on the mobile phone.This mechanism can comprise the bar code of printing or dial in the telephone number of the information of can obtaining.In another embodiment, utilize near-field communication to start connection between shopper and the remote-merchant, shown in 4601.By starting this connection, can activate MCA, if so that shopper's decision is done shopping, then MCA is waken up, and connects, shown in 4602.By selected Buy Request option, shown in 6503, the shopper can carry out purchase transaction with paying server, handles the details such as " delivery is given " address and funds transfer.Within a short period of time, can from a few minutes by several days, the product of order will be issued, shown in 4604.
[496] in another embodiment, the account holder has the option that selection " is delivered to current geographic position ", rather than account holder's billing address.When the account holder is on a journey and wishes to order and when not wishing anyone is said this function specific needs from the room service services menu.In the case, menu will comprise near-field communication equipment, and so, the account holder need only select Buy Request, and food will offer the room at account holder place.
[497] Figure 47 has shown another quick shopping function according to an embodiment of the invention.In this embodiment, the payment of the regular appearance of account holder's desired product or service.For saying something, please see typical commuter, climbing up before train sails the urban district into every morning, the purchase newspaper stops.For embodiment shown among Figure 47, the account holder can set up the account who authorizes in advance for the payment of so regular appearance, shown in 4701.The account of Shou Quaning can comprise the product that can obtain or the type of service in advance, shown in 4702, and the shopping amount of money that allows of the maximum that will authorize in advance, shown in 4703.So, when the commuter has bought newspaper, near field antenna detects the account information on the mobile phone, and dealing money sent to paying server, this paying server will need not to wait for that the consumer verifies confirming send it back businessman, particularly, authorize and carry out financial transaction, shown in 4704.This function also is to quicken the important means that shopping is handled for financial transaction it is pressed for time, as when the commuter wishes to use their mobile-phone payment subway ticket when they pass through turnsile.The amount of money of Shou Quaning can be deducted in real time in advance, perhaps, handles as the financial transaction of batch processing, and for example, one hour once.
[498] for minimizing the checking processing time, in certain embodiments, can be before the use of expection, authorization conditions is notified to businessman in advance.Authorizing in advance when receiving, telephone number can be placed in " green list ", points out that businessman can accept payment, need not the checking from paying server.Green list is stored in the POS terminal, or can be conducted interviews from home server by the POS terminal, rather than conducts interviews from trading server.
[499] if the account of Shou Quaning uses up in advance, and the account holder does not replenish this account in time, and then telephone number can be placed in " Red List ", and forbids following this service of using.Red List also can be stored among the POS by businessman this locality, or is stored in the home server that is connected to POS equipment.If telephone number is included in the Red List, the businessman's form of payment that can accept to substitute then.Perhaps, server can denial of service, and sends message first, and suggestion the account holder take this opportunity account holder's account is supplemented with money again.Businessman can accept to supplement payment again with money, and the incentive fees of collecting the fund of receiving that the account to the account holder supplements with money again are with (if any).
[500] shopping in order to accelerate to authorize in advance, in one embodiment, mobile phone comprises the visible bar code from the outside, can scan on POS, this bar code is to start and to close the trade.Perhaps, bar code may be displayed on the screen of mobile phone, and is scanned on POS.Because for many daily shopping speed and convenience is so important, bar code together with the green list of local cache, makes businessman's " dynamically " accept shopping, submits transaction with batch mode in seclected time in the interval then.
[501] advantage for the account holder is, if mobile phone is lost, can or pass through the visit Web page, upgrades subscriber data, or by called customer service centre, suspends mandate in advance apace.If the report mobile phone is lost, then new green list and Red List are distributed to affected businessman immediately, thereby dwindle the potential loss of account holder and businessman.If the situation of the monthly ticket of the advance deposit of more once losing-lose, then whole value of this monthly ticket are also lost, and whose benefit who has found.So, green list and Red List are to prevent the effective tool of swindling for the account who authorizes in advance by the theft phone.
[502] owing to each mobile phone that is not current use all is to be equipped with application program, therefore, paying server is adapted to the service class all available to each account holder.Being used between cell phone apparatus a kind of method of pass-along message is to use Short Message Service (to be also referred to as " SMS text message " usually, or simply, SMS) to transmit and receive, because most of mobile device is all supported SMS.SMS is the mechanism that is used for providing by the mobile network short message.It is " storage is transmitted " technology that is used to travel to and fro between the mobile phone message transfer.Message (only for text) from the transmit leg mobile phone is stored in the server related with the SMS transmission system, and this server is forwarded to target mobile phones with it after a while.This means that if the addressee is unavailable, then message is stored, and send after a while.Because SMS uses signaling channel rather than dedicated channel, therefore, these message can send simultaneously/receive by mobile network and voice service.For the mobile network based on all three kinds of cellular technologies, GSM, CDMA and TDMA support SMS, and SMS uses data in mobile phone service very widely.
[503] utilize SMS, SMS synthesizer route messages in real time between paying server and account holder, fund can be used for the payee immediately.If financial transaction comprises the opposing party, server also uses SMS, reuses the SMS synthesizer and communicates with the other side in real time.When non-account holder was payee from account holder's payment account transfer, SMS was the mechanism of particular importance.Non-account holder's problem is not embed MCA in their phone, and so, SMS is used for the mechanism that communicates with non-account holder.MCA management and insertion Transaction Identification Number, this Transaction Identification Number comprises the idempotence key, make Transaction Identification Number for data, services SMS, HTTP, and the HTTPS protocol message is unique, still, when using manual SMS, does not have Transaction Identification Number.
[504] SMS moves financial transaction system and has avoided and only add special chip (that is integrated circuit (IC)-components) related cost and problem for the financial function of supporting and enable equipment.In mobile phone or other mobile devices, add other assembly and can increase the cost of making and supporting.Licence fee or other proprietary expenses could be used this chip if desired, and then cost further increases.In addition, in mobile phone, add chip and can increase power consumption, and shorten that battery life-both have counter productive for the mobile device such as mobile phone.
[505] although the SMS text message is applicable to the mobile communication equipment of various types of cellular devices and some other types, as portable digital-assistant or PDA, but SMS can expose unencrypted password or personal identification number (PIN), and the details of balance amount information or relevant nearest transaction.Because anyone who has a phone can read the SMS message file and know account and other confidential information of how to visit another person immediately, therefore, preferably avoids using public SMS message to transmit PIN.Correspondingly, in one embodiment, the invention provides the mode of being undertaken by voice-grade channel in the situation next part transaction that starts financial transaction by the SMS text message.
[506] Figure 48 is the illustration of the system level of the financial transaction carried out by at least one SMS message mechanism according to an embodiment of the invention.Which mobile phone this method of commerce is used to not have support the situation of the Internet.In addition, mobile phone does not have the MCA of embedding yet, so, depends on SMS message and handles transaction.Those skilled in the art will recognize that, if one of them phone is to support the Internet, and MCA has been installed, so, the transaction of its this end will be undertaken by the HTTPS link, will be undertaken by SMS message with communicating by letter of another phone.Should be appreciated that HTTPS is meant the HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) on the security socket layer, or HTTPover SSL, this link is the Internet link.Should also be understood that the Internet connection provides profuse user interface, safer, start and carry out financial transaction and be more prone to.When HTTPS was unavailable, MCA can revise transaction to use http protocol, and this is the transmission mechanism that a kind of security is hanged down some slightly.In this case, the account can call software cryptography before Transaction Information is sent to server and before inserting Transaction Information.
[507] unavailable if the Internet connects, then use SMS (or Short Message Service) message in one embodiment.In one embodiment, MCA utilizes the data, services function to send scale-of-two SMS message.In disabled another embodiment of MCA, use plain language SMS message to carry out financial transaction, and taked special measure, with the integrality of protection PIN.It should be further apparent that, lack MCA and further can limit the UI function that so, the user can obtain limited satisfying from the present invention, still, yet, otherwise, can enjoy the repertoire and the advantage of this financial transaction system.
[508] utilize the present invention, MCA selects the pattern to server 4804 (also abbreviating transaction processor as) transmission financial transaction.For example, available if the Internet connects, then use HTTPS link (this is to the User Page request and the Web agreement of being carried out encryption and decryption by the page that server 4804 returns) to conclude the business.Use the Internet, the account holder only needs to import trade detail on the Web page, and selects " transmission ", to start transaction.If relate to the opposing party, and this side has the equipment of supporting Web, then provides trade detail on the Web page.In this embodiment, server 4804 serves as Web server.
[509] common, be not that all account holders have mobile phone or the equipment of supporting the Internet.Therefore, the invention provides the additive method that carries out financial transaction from mobile phone.Such method comprises to be used SMS data, services, SMS plain language (the two can use voice-grade channel to transmit PIN) or only uses voice-grade channel.
[510] for the mobile phone of supporting SMS, the account holder to server 4804 transmission SMS message, starts transaction with the mobile phone 5206 from them, by SMS gateway 4802 shown in flow arrows 4810.Gateway 4802 arrives server 4804 with the SMS message relay, shown in flow arrows 4811.When receiving SMS message, server 4804 is taked the assigned operation of asking in message, and sends a reply SMS message to gateway 4802, shown in flow arrows 4812.Gateway 4802 will be replied the SMS message relay to mobile phone 4806, shown in flow arrows 4813.This sequence of events can carry out over and over again, finishes up to financial transaction.Can come to judge transmission SMS message between the gateway 4802 by any circuit switching or packet switching network at the automatic numerical value of phone.
[511] in certain embodiments, set up voice communication channel, shown in voice-grade channel 4815 and 4835.When receiving initial SMS message from phone 4906, server 4804 can be opened voice-grade channel 4815 by dialing with the telephone number of account association.Use a kind of situation of voice-grade channel 4815 to be, obtain PIN (receiving) as DTMF or speech data, finishing proof procedure, and response SMS message, the user as the account holder is carried out authentication.DTMF is meant dual-tone multifrequency, is the signal that telephone operator receives when the contact-key of phone is pressed.
[512] initial SMS message begins-PAY, REQUEST PAYMENT, BALANCE, TRANSFER or HELP with the key word of type of transaction that request is provided.Comprise expression in SMS message and wish that from an account holder key word will be pay or requestpayment under the situation of the key word of another account holder's allotted fund.After key word, the input amount of money has radix point, also can not have radix point.After the amount of money, input destination phone numbers (or short code, e-mail address or other identification informations).This information can automatically obtain from the telephone directory book of mobile device.After telephone number, the account holder can be in the message of message field input to the other side's demonstration.In some cases, this message can be empty message.In certain embodiments, the account holder also can import additional message, the purpose that is used to write down.Special code in the message field has been described the message of replenishing, and to point out that the text after the special code is special-purpose, does not need to transmit.The example of representational special code can be */*/or/-/or other unique user-defined codes.
[513] in case SMS message is sent to server, just can import PIN, and send to server, with checking SMS message by the voice-grade channel connection by the account holder.PIN can be any alphanumeric code by the keyboard input.Then, PIN sends to paying server as dtmf code message.
[514] on server, server receives SMS message by SMS text message communications path, and receives PIN by voice-grade channel.Visit to server can be undertaken by the account holder, and the response that also can be used as receiving SMS message is started as " callback " function by paying server.Under the preferable case, PIN sends as the message of dtmf code, with maintenance safe, though in other embodiments, PIN can be said by the account holder, and by at paying server or be exclusively used in the interactive voice recognition software module of working on another server (not shown) of processed voice phone and change.
[515], please see the process that takes place when issuing the SMS message request account balance of server 4504 as the account holder who uses mobile phone 4506 for saying something.SMS message is formatd by the user, with the type of the financial transaction that comprises request, that is, and BALANCE (the acceptable simple form of this request can be BAL, or simply, B), and with their telephone number of account association, for example, 4081234567.Perhaps, also can determine account number by using Caller ID.
[516] when server 4804 is received SMS message, it is checking sequence number or Transaction Identification Number (for example, referring to Figure 54,55, and 56) at first.If sequence number is correct, then server 4804 is dialed the telephone number with account association, and the request user imports PIN.In other embodiments, PIN is included in the original SMS message, so, there is no need the calling accounts possessor so that verify.If mobile phone 1006 disposes MCA, then can before being included in SMS message, encrypt by password it.MCA will use data, services.Use the disadvantageous one side of SMS transmission of messages PIN to be, this secret number will to can contact phone anyone as seen, and may cause the unwarranted use of non-account holder.
[517] if PIN is correct, then server 4804 is handled the transaction of request.The user can select by the voice answer-back that utilizes voice-grade channel 4815 or by the SMS message returned (in the case, server sends the message that has remaining sum to gateway 4802, and gateway 4802 with forwards to mobile phone 4806) receive information requested.
[518] in other financial transactions, two mobile phones 4806 and 4808 have been related to.This type of financial transaction normally account holder can be payee's account transfer of the account holder related with mobile phone 4808 to one.In other transaction, payee's right and wrong account holder.
[519] identical with BAL request, the PAY request of giving the user of mobile phone 4808 is that to issue the SMS of server 4804 by use message initiated.SMS message is formatd by the user, with the type of the financial transaction that comprises request, that is, and PAY, payee's telephone number (for example, 6263456789), and with their telephone number of account association, once more for example, 4081234567.If account holder's phone is supported MCA, so, all SMS message of exchange can be through encrypting, to strengthen security between mobile phone 4806 and server 4804.
[520] when server 4804 receives SMS message, it is checking sequence number or Transaction Identification Number (if available) at first, and is only correct or be expressed as under the disabled situation in the account record by server maintenance and just proceed at sequence number.Then, server 4804 receives PIN, and judges whether PIN is correct.If sequence number and PIN both are correct, then server 4804 by from mark with account holder's accounts associated (referring to, for example, send to the account holder Figure 43) and by gateway 4802 and to confirm SMS message, handle the transaction of request.
[521] if payee 4808 is account holders, then server 4802 also sends the affirmation message of the fund that acknowledges receipt of.If mobile phone is the equipment of mobile PDA or other supports IP, then message sends by HTTPS, and can be through encrypting, to guarantee security.Encryption can be undertaken by any known method.
[522] if payee 4808 is account holders that MCA has been installed, then MCA can encrypt its message before sending a message to server 4804, and received encrypting messages from server 4804.
[523] if payee 4808 is account holders, but not being supported on the mobile phone, mobile phone downloads and carries out MCA, so, will be plain language from the message of server 4804.Use the disadvantageous one side of plain language SMS transmission of messages PIN to be, this secret number will to can contact phone anyone as seen.This may cause non-account holder's unwarranted use, unless the account holder spends a time to delete SMS message from the mailbox of their mobile phone.If payee 4808 is not the account holder, so, SMS message also will be plain language message.
[524] although the SMS text message is applicable to the mobile communication equipment of mobile phone and some other types, as portable digital-assistant or PDA, but SMS can expose unencrypted password or personal identification number (PIN), and the secret details of balance amount information or relevant nearest transaction.Because anyone who has a phone can read the SMS message file and know account and other confidential information of how to visit another person immediately, therefore, preferably avoids using public SMS message to transmit PIN.
[525] like this, for the mobile device that is sent by affiliate service provider, under the preferable case, mobile device should comprise that MCA is as the software module that is pre-existing in.Perhaps, under the preferable case, MCA can download to from the service provider and not be equipped with the mobile phone of MCA at first.MCA has significant enhancing for the use of financial transaction system.MCA or directly call, or the activation of the SMS text message function on the response mobile device and calling by the account holder.
[526] be to have illustrated in the embodiment that has MCA to use below, use the SMS text message to make the account holder support the detailed description of the device access paying server of SMS from the mobile phone of any support SMS or other.
[527] in operation, the account holder uses the existing text message function on their phone to come to send text messages to server 4804.Function comprises Pay, RequestPay, Balance, History and Help, calls these functions by using in these functions any one as key word.The account holder imports key word together with side information in the text of text message, send to the order of server with structure.Visit to server can be undertaken by free telephone number, short code or e-mail address, and all these are all to this server of SMS gateway identification.An example of short code is 62729, is used as the destination phone numbers that the text message order sends to paying server.An example of e-mail address is sms@obopay.com, and this is the Email target that sends to the SMS text message order of server.
[528] will use the SMS method to pay to other people or businessman, the account holder can import the shown command string of table C.
[529] table C
Key word PIN The target Mobile Directory Number The amount of money Message (optional)
pay ### ############ Abed
[530] in some scheme, each and last between all should have at interval.In one implementation, key word case-insensitive.Mobile number can comprise that area code adds Mobile Directory Number, does not have the space in mobile number.The account holder can import guiding 1 in telephone number, or does not import.Dollar mark () does not need to import with the amount of money, but allows input.Alternatively, the user can comprise message first with their payment.MCA encrypts message, and sends with binary mode as data, services SMS message, rather than sends as plain language.
[531] table D
Key word The target Mobile Directory Number The amount of money Message (optional)
pay ############ Abed
[533] when receiving SMS message, the mobile phone of server 4804 callings and SMS message relating obtains PIN to set up voice-grade channel.PIN is by voice communication channel-promptly, cellular network-send to server 4104.In alternative, PIN sends by the Internet or POTS.
[534] when the SMS that uses SMS method or combination adds speech method the account holder is made Payment Request, they can use manual SMS text message system to accept or refuse this request.
[535] at server end, one or more data centers will have the system that is used for processes financial transactions.Each data center all will comprise the combination of PBX/ACD/VRU technology, to allow the call treatment of a plurality of whiles.Can use the VRU technology that inbound and departures DTMF support able to programme is provided.VRU can be connected to the J2EE system of enterprise of expression actual service logic and the register system of record financial transaction.Then, the J2EE system can be integrated with the actual bank that is used to carry out settlement of transactions.
[536] under the preferable case, MCA is identified for sending the best approach of PIN, as passing through application program SMS (data, services), wherein, SMS message is through encrypting, and is converted into scale-of-two (that is, message is not transmitted with plain language), perhaps, use DTMF to come maintenance safe by voice-grade channel.In other embodiments, PIN can be said by the account holder, and by at server or be exclusively used in the interactive voice recognition software module of working on another server (not shown) of processed voice phone and change.
[537] in an alternative, PIN is encrypted by MCA, and is included in the follow-up SMS message that sends to server 4804.Server 4804 by with telephone number and each then the transmitting time of message mate and make message relating.If PIN sends comparing in the message far away in time with SMS message, then can refuse transaction.If received only in two message, then can refuse transaction.Yet,, so, carry out financial transaction if receive in time and verified SMS message (having key word at least) and the PIN code that has the financial transaction details.
[538] in an alternative, but as the voice-grade channel time spent, MCA can call the module that PIN is encoded to the DTMF form.Then, DTMF sends to paying server by MCA along the voice-grade channel connection of being set up by the mobile client application program.Module can be based on the input of keypad and generate the Java API of suitable tone.DTMF is meant dual-tone multifrequency, is the signal that telephone operator receives when the contact-key of phone is pressed.
[539] in another alternative, MCA provides user interface (UI) on the display screen of mobile device, and the guiding account holder carries out financial transaction.In this embodiment, by automatic insertion key word, the amount of money, destination phone numbers, password, and message (if any), guide the account holder to finish the process that makes up the SMS text message.
[540] in another alternative, SMS message can comprise key word, the amount of money, destination phone numbers and password.The shortcoming of this implementation is, password will to controlling mobile equipment anyone all as seen.Yet the present invention is by sending message to the account holder, and the message that deletion sends the SMS log folder of indication user from account holder's phone is controlled this problem.This message can advise that also the account holder should close the function that writes down the SMS message that spreads out of when using the SMS function to carry out financial transaction in the future.
[541] the present invention also can not use plain language SMS message, but can use the JAVA API that downloads in the mobile phone to carry out financial transaction.JAVA API generates user interface screen, and the guiding user prepares transaction request.Message format and table C or table among the D shown form similar.
[542] in case the account holder has finished transaction request, then the user selectes the SEND option that is presented on the user interface.JAVA API uses cell phone to connect to start voice call, with (IVR) module of the interactive voice recognition on the access server 7104 or DTMF interface.When the DTMF interface was picked up calling, JAVA API used dtmf tone to transfer to transmit transaction request.JAVA API also can use the form of encryption, so that can not deciphered like a cork under the situation that contingency dtmf tone accent is write down in confidence.When IVR provided response to transaction request, response also was through encrypting, then, using DTMF to encode, and transmit back the interested party by voice-grade channel.Because JAVA API has improved security, this embodiment is better than sending plain language SMS.
[543] therefore, communication can transfer to carry out by voice-grade channel and dtmf tone.This just provides another communications conduit of being used to conclude the business (remove SMS, data, services or application program SMS, HTTP, and outside the HTTPS).By having many communications conduits, this provides bigger reliability in system, because when some channel is unavailable, can use other any channels.
[544] Figure 49 has shown the method for the financial transaction that is used to protect SMS-Based according to an embodiment of the invention.More particularly,, MCA is installed on mobile phone relates to, be called as and encrypt and the Transaction Identification Number maker, or abbreviate maker 4902 as, with intercepting SMS message communicating with physics mode insertion minitype circuit board for the mobile device such as GSM mobile handset.
[545] maker 4902 comprise be inserted in the phone can with SIM card 4903 alive circuits.In one embodiment, maker 4902 is to be inserted in SIM card 4903 cover on every side.Perhaps, maker 4902 is to be inserted in the transmitter module 4904 of mobile phone and the pad between the SIM card 4903.SIM card 4903 is Subscriber Identity Module cards, and this is that a kind of mobile phone or other of being inserted into are based on the electronic cards to identifying customer by network of being used in the mobile device of GSM, GPRS or 3G.
[546] though SIM card be used most widely in the gsm system,, compatible module also is used for UMTS UE (USIM) and IDEN phone.SIM card 4903 comprises user's personal identification number, the information such as user's telephone number, telephone directory, SMS message, and other and user-dependent information.
[547] maker 4902 intercepts the SMS message of importing into, seeks the message (referring to Figure 48) from server 1004.When maker 4902 detected the SMS message that is sent by server 4804, it was by being decrypted SMS data, services message, and presented plain language message to the account holder, just as MCA works.
[548] maker 4902 also intercepts the SMS message that spreads out of that mails to server 4804.Moreover maker 4903 also adds the service that Transaction Identification Number provides MCA by concluding the business to each time, and SMS message is encrypted.Because maker 4902 comprises plug in software module, therefore, it can be used as data, services SMS message rather than sends SMS message as plain language.
[549] maker 4902 is intended to be independent assembly sale or otherwise provides, and makes the mobile phone acquisition MCA that is not equipped with MCA reside in the advantage on the mobile phone.In other embodiments, SIM 4903 comprises maker 4902 as card circuit, and offers the user's by the service provider of mobile phone.
[550] Figure 50 has shown the purposes of safe SMS aggregation server according to an embodiment of the invention, wherein, maker 4902 also is redirected to safe SMS aggregation server 5011 with the SMS message that spreads out of, rather than is redirected to service provider's standard SMS server.By send the SMS message that comprises financial transaction information to the SMS of safety aggregation server, reduced the stolen chance of data to greatest extent, reduced the message delay that causes owing to the overload in the SMS server 5010 or lost, and improved overall control the message jettison system.
[551], the figure illustrates new account possessor's registration process according to an embodiment of the invention now please referring to Figure 51.When the payee of fund also was not the account holder, one embodiment of the present of invention were called new client's obtain manner of a virus-type, and existing account holder brings the new account possessor into by remitting money to non-account payee simply.Non-account payee receives a SMS message, illustrates that they have received remittance, and invites them to register, and ability visit fund is shown in 5101.Web is provided the address.
[552] registration can be carried out any affiliate of bank there, or registers online by the access to the Internet Web page, shown in 5102.Registration process allows the payee to open an advance deposit (fund that use is transferred) credit account.This process is similar to opens any other bank account, does not just have minimum account balance, so, even does not have qualification also can participate in the individual that bank obtains check or savings account.
[553] in a single day register, new account possessor has " not having card " restricted account, shown in 1203.In this stage (Phase I), new account possessor can check the fund among their the advance deposit credit account in real time.Yet because bank regulations, new account possessor's account's the access rights to fund are restricted, and up to finishing the OFAC report, shown in 5104, such there that is reported in is suitable for." OFAC " is meant the foreign assets control office of the Treasury Department of USA, this office is according to U.S.'s foreign policy and national security objective, foreign country, terrorist, unauthorized international drug trafficker at appointment, and those participate in the people of the activity relevant with the diffusion of unauthorized mass destruction weapon, manage and implement economy and trade sanction.
[554] contrast a suspect list examination account holder is the basic step in the OFAC adaptive plan.If the account holder is marked as potential and OFAC list coupling, then investigate, in fact really mate judging whether.Before solving, fund can not let pass.On market, can buy software program package and be used to carry out suitability test.The user logging that suitability test identification repeats, between individual and company, set up link, so that carry out traditional and unconventional family finance, creating multi-functional " family finance " key changes As time goes on to follow the tracks of, and set up rule-based processing procedure and repeat, and create link and family finance to solve.
[555] in case the OFAC suitability test is finished (this process approximately will be spent 24 hours usually), do not find disadvantageous link, the account holder can become " not having card " account, this means, financial institution can open advance deposit debit card account, and the plastics debit card sent to the new account possessor, shown in 5105.Yet in this stage (Phase), new no card account holder has only the limited right of eminent domain to fund.For example, new account possessor can use financial transaction system of the present invention that funds transfer is arrived other people, but because extra governments limit, fund can not be extracted or transfer into a businessman.
[556] in the back-end processing part of system of the present invention,, then merge the reservation account and keeping the fund of transferring if the payee also is not the account holder.Ledgers clauses and subclauses sign belongs to the fund (referring to Figure 39) of each telephone number.These funds can transfer into other accounts (if they have registered the account) by the payee.Owing to can not force individual registering account, therefore, the payee might refuse fund on one's own initiative or not respond simply.Under these circumstances, after trading window expires (trading window can be the duration of selecting, as 30 days or 60 days) or when initiatively refusing, fund is returned to the account holder who starts this transaction.Trading server can send regular reminder message to the remitter and the payee of fund.In other cases, if the payee does not also register to obtain the authority of visit fund, then the remitter of fund can non-payment.This function is under the situation that each side's agreement cancellation wire transfer is also concluded the business in another way, and is very important.
[557] if all account holders' fund all is retained in the combined account, so, when new account change " work ", then the new account possessor has instant completely access right to fund.If fund all is retained among the independent account for each account holder, then when the account became " work ", fund transferred into account holder's account from reservation.Have some delay, fund just can appear in the personal account.
[558] in case opened the account, and passed through suitability test, financial institution sends to the plastics debit card address in new account possessor's the record.When snapping into when reaching, the account holder dials free call numbers, acknowledges receipt of.This affirmation phone shows that also this account possessor's address is correct.
[559] in dialing this phone process, the account holder also selectes their PIN.PIN is linked to the telephone number of card and account holder's mobile phone.In addition, account number and the phone on the plastics debit card also is locked in together.Card can be used for extracting cash or save cash from the account in the account by the ATM of any bank.It also can have POS equipment to receive credit card and use any businessman merchandising location of bank card.At this stage (Phase I), account holder's account is activated fully, uses for the possessor.
[560] now please referring to Figure 52, the fraud detection system 5200 of layering is to show as the part of transaction processor 3630.The ground floor of the system 5200 of layering comprises the assembly 5201 that rule-based engine and user select.The second layer of hierarchical system 4502 comprises proprietary assembly, and the account holder can not visit these assemblies.
[561] assembly selected of user comprises that for example, the account holder is the ability of their account's custom security.The account holder can link a plurality of phone numbers of the kinsfolk who is authorized to visit the advance deposit account.For each designated telephone number, the account holder can specify every day, weekly or every month the highest cost restriction.The account holder can get rid of some businessman, account number or telephone number by being the establishment individual of each side " blacklist " of the eliminating of appointment.
[562] specific blacklist implementation allows the account holder to specify asterisk wildcard to get rid of item, transfers accounts to any phone with specific area code or to any " 900 " or foreign number as stoping.The account holder can create independent individual blacklist for authorized users.The unsuitable cost of child that this function is furnished with mobile phone for control is particularly useful.Can there be the number or the account of any amount to be included in the blacklist.
[563] opposite, the account holder also can specify some businessman or the telephone number that can be included in the financial transaction that relates to some authorized users.Every other businessman and telephone number can be regarded as on individual blacklist alternatively.Moreover this function is bought ticket, lunch by allowing child, and the supply of school, but does not allow to buy magazine or other novelties, and is particularly useful for control child's cost.
[564] except that specifying individual blacklist and white list, the account holder also can authorize in advance in the shopping that appears at each the businessman there on the white list, and other numbers on the white list is provided with the restriction of each transaction.
[565] account holder can self-defined rule-based fraud detection mechanism, and this mechanism also realizes at ground floor.
[566] account holder also can specify each time the Maximum Amount of transaction, and the quantity of manageable transaction on mobile phone in the seclected time section.The account holder also can specify the Maximum Amount that will deposit and be retained in the fund among the advance deposit credit account.3630 every days of transaction processor are transferred to the account of another appointment with unnecessary money, as personal savings account.
[567] second layer of hierarchical system 5202 comprises proprietary assembly, and the account holder can not visit these assemblies.For example, the second layer 5202 comprises based on history average, geographical checking, the highest cost restriction that the historical quantity of current transaction has been done.Here also can realize other rule-based fraud detection and trading frequency (speed) controlling mechanism.
[568] swindle and risk rule engine (not shown) are by using the cost restriction, and determine the acceptability of the transaction of asking from the angle of risk, control risk.Such fraud detection system is known, usually is used for monitoring swindle when using credit card.Can excavate the information of collecting, use for businessman and consumer's value-added application, commercial monitor application, system operation application program and security monitoring application program into each financial transaction.
[569], the figure illustrates the combined account embodiment that minimizes ACH and credit card trade expense now please referring to Figure 53.Present embodiment is not for each account holder safeguards an independent advance deposit credit account, merges advance deposit credit account 5300 but utilize.When concluding the business between the account holder, shown in 5301, fund is retained in the combined account 5300, still, moves on to another account holder's account from an account holder's account.Account transfer is directly, for system operator, can not produce any tranaction costs.Therefore, can charge, almost not have tranaction costs, perhaps seldom to the account holder.
[570] sometimes, the account holder can be in combined account the interpolation fund, shown in 5302.Such fund can leave agreement in accepts the cooperation businessman there of fund from the account holder, and then, these funds are saved in the combined account.Perhaps, the plastics debit card that the account holder can utilize them is carrying out on the Internet, or is transferring accounts with phone, or automatically carrying out at ATM deposit cash gold or check, as specified with the subscriber data page of each account association.
[571] other the time, the account holder can be outside combined account allotted fund, shown in 7103.When maintaining a balance in the new account possessor does not wish advance deposit credit account at them, they can extract such fund.
[572] in this embodiment, system operator is that the account comprehensively discusss, and with regard to risk and risk control, becomes register system.System operator also is responsible for carrying out the OFAC suitability test.System operator can be bank, financial institution, also the combined account management can be subcontracted to another bank.
[573] in one embodiment, use near-field communication between mobile device, to communicate to use architecture of the present invention to carry out financial transaction.In another embodiment, use near-field communication between mobile device and POS terminal, to communicate, to carry out financial transaction.
[574] security and anti-swindle
[575] security and anti-swindle are important subjects under discussion for the payment industry, and are the problematic sources that continues.According to mobile payment account transfer architecture of the present invention and method of operating, be effective tool at these problems.Specifically, carry out financial transaction by using mobile device, can carry out real-time transaction, the fund of use guarantees available.The take over party can verify the legitimacy of the entity of holding fund, and whether the account has enough remaining sums and conclude the business.Under the preferable case, needn't provide account information (credit number, debit card number or be arranged in other accounts of financial institution) to conclude the business.
[576] at the originating end of transaction, transmit leg uses the PIN code to identify the people who takes on the telephone.This checking provides high-caliber security, because paying server can use Caller ID to discern mobile device, and discerns the people who uses mobile device by PIN.Under the preferable case, the fund of transferring accounts in the mode of safety can not be stored in the mobile device with visible form.
[577] in addition, transaction also can identify by unique serial number, and this unique serial number is determined by MCA, and sent to paying server as the part of command stream.On paying server, safeguarded the history of employed sequence number, so, the transaction of employed sequence number will can be not processed before having.After transaction each time and before transaction next time, this sequence number of sequence number update that the mobile device utilization is new.For example, new sequence can be that old sequence number increases by 1.In a kind of alternative implementation, sequence number can be any numeral, comprises random number.In addition, also can use the algorithm of creating predictable or pseudorandom number sequence.This Serial No. can use from relevant information or the seed created of the hash function of other information such as telephone number, constantly and generate.When carrying out initialization, provide initial sequence number to paying server, know algorithm and seed, so, it can predict that what sequence number the next one should be.If sequence number is incorrect, then server refusal transaction.This can help to prevent to inveigle attacks.
[578] sequence number helps to prevent swindle, has also avoided the repetition of financial transaction, and repetition may be because communication protocol causes that Transaction Information may be sent out repeatedly.This is similar to such situation: if facsimile recorder is not received normal affirmation, it can attempt moreover send fax.
[579] if use SMS message to finish transaction, then authorizing under the PIN preferable case is the bright oral code of reading in the mobile device and being transferred to paying server, so that use speech recognition software to verify.
[580] be to use movable mandate under the merchant transaction preferable case, wherein, account holder's phone receives first message and sounds, and allows the dollar amount of money of approval account transfer.Credit card and check can not utilize operating alternately of this level.
[581] by using the PIN code to activate MCA, provide bigger security.In this embodiment, the PIN code appears in first example, opens MCA, and starts its operation.Same PIN code, perhaps, under the preferable case, an independent PIN code is used for by network transaction being authorized.This pair of PIN code process is unavailable to credit card, check or smart card.
[582] when detecting swindle, can forbid this mobile device, and stop it to use network to visit the account.Generally speaking, mobile device has a plurality of determinant attributes, promotes following safeguard protection.If not all at least great majority these attributes be not present on the card.Particularly, mobile device comprises that independently power supply moves physical equipment, as special chip, and the Secure Shell that can cover the equipment such as intelligent chip.Mobile device allows to communicate by voice and by cellular network or by the Internet, so, speech verification and PIN can be combined use, or uses individually, with the identified account possessor.Can start and the checking transaction by using speech recognition technology and utilizing the data of importing by keyboard.In other embodiments, Image Communication provides by using camera.
[583] another safe floor is to provide by use location technology (as earth-fixed system), and perhaps GPS can determine devices'physical locations.So, if the account holder in atypical position (as when they just on holiday the time) use payment services, then can be by requiring to re-enter the user that PIN identifies the account.Another advantage of location technology is to adjust the service that can use the account holder based on the position at account holder place.For example, when the position of account holder's location matches businessman, can send discount or special promotion information with the affirmation of transaction.In other embodiments, if the account holder is positioned at the area that certain is providing the businessman of special discount, if the then this account possessor's who is safeguarded by paying server data mandate then can send promotional messages to this account possessor.
[584] Figure 54 has shown mechanism and the method that is used to according to an embodiment of the invention to prevent to swindle with multiple repeat business request.Anti-swindle mechanism is included in the register on each mobile phone and storage sequence number in paying server.Usually, shown in 5401, when Activating Phone payment services, initialization sequence number.Simultaneously, the identical sequence number of initialization in paying server, and be stored in the database with other information of account holder.
[585] when receiving transaction request, shown in 5402, paying server is received a sequence number from mobile phone, and it is compared with the sequence number that keeps in the paying server.If two sequence numbers match, shown in 5403, so, the payment authorization server transaction is proceeded.Then, with the sequence number update in mobile phone and the paying server be a new sequence number.This security mechanism is used to prevent inveigle attacks or clone's phone.Then, require the user to import their PIN, shown in 5405.By sequence number and PIN and phone number are combined use, there are three level securities to cover, user (PIN), telephone number (detecting and be linked to certain accounts by Caller ID) and sequence number are verified, prevent that with the checking transaction invador from attempting to catch transaction, and then submit the transaction request that repeats to).Sequence number also is used to distinguish the repeatedly trial and the effective a plurality of transaction that are used to provide transaction message of SMS system.
[586] if sequence numbers, paying server refusal transaction request then, shown in 5406, anti-swindle measure is activated, shown in 5407.As example, when sequence numbers, the account can be frozen, can determine the reason of sequence numbers up to the Customer Service Representative.This may need to phone the account holder, inquires whether they still have their phone, and whether they authorize and carry out the transaction attempted.
[587] Figure 55 has shown another embodiment that is used to according to an embodiment of the invention to prevent to swindle with the mechanism and the method for multiple repeat business request.
[588] 5510, user (that is account holder) goes up at mobile telephone equipment (for example, mobile phone) and starts financial transaction.5511, the user is transmission PIN (option A) when starting transaction.Perhaps, as shown in 5512, the user is not transmitted PIN (option B) when starting transaction.
[589] at 5513 places, paying server receives the request that starts financial transaction from mobile device.Server is checked by caller ID (Caller ID) numbering of mobile device transmission 5514, is looked at whether mobile device is the authorized users of system.If on phone, do not enable Caller ID, then forbid transaction, as shown in 5915.Can show an error message, be under an embargo to point out transaction, because the Caller ID not enabled.The user can retry request after enabling Caller ID.
[590] if selected option B, then server must send a request to mobile device, requires the user to transmit PIN, shows as 5516 places.This PIN can be by mobile device keypad or voice interactive voice response (IVR) unit of server (for example, to) transmit.
[591] in a single day verified Caller ID, the PIN that then writes down in the server contradistinction system checks from the PIN of mobile device transmission, whether PIN mates the telephone number of expection with checking, shows as 5517 places.During PIN coupling that and if only if, server just allows to conclude the business.If PIN does not match, then forbid transaction, show as 5518 places.
[592] then, server receives the Transaction Identification Number (also abbreviating sequence number as) of financial transaction from mobile device.Transaction Identification Number can send when starting transaction, or later part transmission as the information transmission between mobile device and the server.Transaction Identification Number comprises makes its unique idempotence key.
The current Transaction Identification Number from mobile device was checked in already used Transaction Identification Number tabulation before [593] server also contrasted, and showed as 5519 places.This list storage is in the database related with server.If current sequence number is mated in the previously used sequence number any one, then the user is not tested and appraised, and transaction will be under an embargo, as shown in 5520.This verification step to a plurality of copies that prevent message by as new and independently message is useful.Intercepted the situation that old transaction is resubmited in message first and attempt for the hacker, also prevented hacker attacks.
[594] in certain embodiments, server also contrasts the Transaction Identification Number that is stored in the expection in the server, checks the Transaction Identification Number that receives from mobile device, shows as 5521 places.If sequence numbers, then the user is not tested and appraised, and transaction will be under an embargo, as shown in 5520.
[595] if be stored in sequence number on the server from the sequence numbers match of phone, or not have the numbering of use in the past, then the user is tested and appraised, and will allow financial transaction to carry out.In certain embodiments, server only carries out the Transaction Identification Number checking, shows as 5519 places.In other embodiments, server only carries out the Transaction Identification Number checking, shows as 5521 places.In other embodiments, server only carries out the Transaction Identification Number checking, shows as 5519 and 5521 places.As long as it is not have usedly in the past that server is determined the sequence number from phone, and/or the sequence number of expection then will allow to conclude the business and carry out.Sequence number also can be used as unique transaction identifiers.
[596] server is also stored former sequence number, or otherwise is expressed as already used sequence number in server, shows as 5622 places.These previously used sequence numbers can be stored in the database on the server.If the sequence number of an expection of server maintenance, then the sequence number in phone and the server increases progressively, and thinks that transaction is prepared next time, shows as 5623 places.Then, server continues to finish financial transaction, shows as 5624 places.
[597] a kind of three factor authentication technology are identified based on following factors:
[598] (1) checks Caller ID
[599] (2) check PIN or personal identification number
[600] (3) check Transaction Identification Number
[601] Shang Mian verification method presents some verification steps by specific order.A kind of implementation of the present invention is by carry out these steps to definite sequence.Yet, in other implementations of the present invention, other steps can be arranged, perhaps also can omit some steps, perhaps the order of step can be different from top order.For example, Caller ID, PIN, and transaction can be not in order.Therefore, in one embodiment, can before Caller ID, check PIN.In another embodiment, can before PIN, check Transaction Identification Number.In addition, some top steps can also be carried out in the heart at different processors or processor core simultaneously with the implementation of parallel processing.
[602] in one implementation, system of the present invention can omit top listed one or more verification techniques.For example, Caller ID can be do not identified, so, two factor authentication methods will be used.
Traditional pattern of [603] two factor authentication is based on (1) you had and (2) known to you.First factor is the whatsit that the user has, as mobile phone, personal digital assistant, smart phone, or plastic clip.Second factor is the whatsit known to the user, as personal identification number (PIN), mother's birth name, street address, social security number, driving license numbering, or home phone number.
[604] be to use three factors also to be to use two factor authentication can depend on mobile device and the employed communications conduit of server.For example, when using SMS or data, services SMS, there is Caller ID to use, then can uses three factor authentication.Yet when using HTTP or HTTPS, Caller ID is unavailable usually, will can not use three factor authentication.Can be useful on the extra factor of identifying account holder or user, so, technology can have the factor more than three.In addition, the 3rd factor of checking can be managed by client and server end component software.
[605] exemplary three factor authentication flow processs
[606] (1) is gone up at mobile telephone equipment (for example, mobile phone) and is started financial transaction
[607] (2a) (option A) transmits PIN when execution in step 1.
[608] (2b) (option B) do not transmit PIN when execution in step 1.
[609] (3) receive the request that starts financial transaction from mobile device on server.
[610] (4) are checked by the caller ID (Caller ID) of mobile device transmission on server, look at whether mobile device is the authorized users of system.If on phone, do not enable Caller ID, then forbid transaction.Can show an error message, be under an embargo to point out transaction, because the Caller ID not enabled.The user can retry request after enabling Caller ID.
[611] (5) in case verified Caller ID, then enter step 6 if selected option A.If selected option B, in case verified Caller ID, then server sends the request of transmission PIN to user's mobile device.This PIN can be by mobile device keypad or voice interactive voice response (IVR) unit of server (for example, to) transmit.
[612] (6) Caller ID empirical tests, therefore, the PIN that writes down in the contradistinction system checks from the PIN of mobile device transmission.If the PIN coupling then enters step 7.
[613] (7) receive the Transaction Identification Number or the sequence number of financial transaction from mobile device.This Transaction Identification Number can send when execution in step 1, also can send in the information transmission between mobile device and server later on.Enter following 8a (option C) or 8b (option D).
[614] (8a) sequence number of storing in (option C) contrast server is checked the sequence number from mobile device.If sequence numbers, then the user is not tested and appraised, and transaction will be under an embargo.
[615] (8b) (option D) contrast is stored in the tabulation or the database of the former employed sequence number in the server, checks the current sequence number from mobile device.If current sequence number is mated in the previously used sequence number any one, then the user is not tested and appraised, and transaction will be under an embargo.
[616] (9) if be stored in sequence number (for option C) on the server from the sequence numbers match of phone, or not have the numbering (for option D) of use in the past, and then the user is tested and appraised, and will allow financial transaction to carry out.For option D, in other words, be not have usedly in the past as long as server is determined sequence number from phone, then will allow to conclude the business and carry out.
[617] if (10a) selected option C, then the sequence number in phone and the server increases progressively, and thinks that transaction is prepared next time.
[618] if (10b) selected option D, then the sequence number in the phone is incremented to next sequence number.Sequence number in the past is stored in the server, or otherwise is expressed as already used sequence number.These previously used sequence numbers can be stored in the database on the server.
[619] the various implementations of Transaction Identification Number or sequence number checking
[620] (1) uses the initial transaction number value that is stored on mobile device and the server when the service initialization.Initial transaction number can be (1a) or (1b).
[621] (1a) initial transaction number can be an integer, as 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, or other numerals.
[622] (1b) initial transaction number can be a random number, as the random number by pseudorandom number generator and given seed generated.This seed can be based on the attribute of equipment or the hash code of feature.For example, seed can be based on the attribute in the integrated circuit of the sequence number of telephone number, equipment, equipment or the value of storage, or the real-time clock value.
[623] (2) when the user uses those application programs of using Transaction Identification Numbers checking, the Transaction Identification Number value will from initial or before the Transaction Identification Number value become next one value the sequence.Sequence can be any progression, and is mathematics, pseudorandom or other kinds.Sequence can be limited, unlimited, or the progression that repeats.If repetition progression, then the quantity of the Transaction Identification Number in the progression can be based on the quantity of the binary bits that is used to represent Transaction Identification Number before its repeats.
[624] (2a) for example, sequence can be arithmetic or how much.For the example of arithmetical series, Transaction Identification Number can increase progressively 1 or any other value (or successively decrease 1 or any other value), to obtain the next Transaction Identification Number in the sequence.If use eight binary bits to represent Transaction Identification Number, then sequence will just repeat every 256 numerals.If use 16 binary bits to represent Transaction Identification Number, then sequence will just repeat every 65536 numerals.Therefore, employed bit number is many more, and sequence is just long more.
[625] (2b) sequence can be the pseudo random number that is generated by pseudorandom number generator.The sequence of pseudo random number will be based on initial seed.Pseudo random number can use floating number to represent.Floating number can use the binary floating point representation to store.
[626] (3) after transaction each time, mobile device and server (in server, will contrast identifying the Transaction Identification Number of mobile device) both is according to the next Transaction Identification Number in the identical algorithm formation sequence.If mobile device uses arithmetical series, then server also will use arithmetical series.If mobile device uses pseudo random number progression, then server also will use pseudo random number progression.The employed same seed of mobile device also will use for server.Depend on the specific implementation mode, this seed can be transferred to server by slave unit, otherwise perhaps, perhaps determines independently.
[627] (4) mobile device and server will be stored corresponding Transaction Identification Number separately.Transaction Identification Number on the mobile device can abbreviate the mobile device Transaction Identification Number as.Transaction Identification Number on the server can abbreviate the server Transaction Identification Number as.
[628] (5) when transaction was carried out, server can compare the Transaction Identification Number of storing on the Transaction Identification Number of its storage and the mobile device.If the Transaction Identification Number coupling, then checking is passed through, and transaction will be allowed to carry out.Otherwise transaction will be under an embargo.
[629] (6) after allowing transaction, on mobile device and server, Transaction Identification Number will advance to the next Transaction Identification Number in the sequence.
[630] use Transaction Identification Number to identify that these technology of mobile device can help prevent swindle, repeat business, reach other and do not wish situation about taking place.The specific implementation mode of Transaction Identification Number checking has many variations, can use these any in changing, also can with the method as described above use that combines.For example, not to check from the Transaction Identification Number of the mobile device numeral of the correspondence on the match server whether, (a) the do not match numeral of the correspondence on the server that whether verification technique can check Transaction Identification Number, (b) do not match on the server before employed numeral (noted earlier) as the application.
[631] Figure 57 has shown the example of sequence number checking.Consumer's computer equipment (for example, telephone plant, smart phone, or portable computer) and enterprise application are arranged.On consumer's computer equipment, sequence number checking (SNA) client software component is arranged.Enterprise application comprises sequence number authentication server component software.When consumer device when server sends transaction, these assemblies are verified.This checking can be the 3rd factor in the three factor authentication methods.
[632] in the specific implementation mode, the counter of client sequence number checking component tracks through encrypting, this counter begins with nonzero value at random, is provided with in the client installation process.When concluding the business each time, client SNA assembly all increases progressively a nonzero value at random with client count device value.Server sequence number checking assembly is followed the tracks of " receiving at last " Counter Value of client based on client identifier.If the client count device value of importing into is greater than the value of receiving at last, then transaction is accepted.Counter Value is stored, and transaction is performed.Otherwise if Counter Value is not more than the value of receiving at last, it is invalid then to conclude the business, and can suspend the account.This implementation is a kind of, and the sequence number checking has many possible variations.
[633] Figure 58 has shown another example of sequence number checking.In this particular technology, depend on the client of initiating transaction, use dissimilar sequence numbers, and send it to the mobile payment service server.For example, can use Fat Client or thin-client.
[634] example of Fat Client is included in application program or the program of carrying out on mobile phone, smart phone, portable computer or other electronic equipments.The part of application program or application program can be write with the programming language such as J2ME, BREW or .NET CF.Application program can be the specific application program that is used to carry out mobile payment.User's screen of having described the example of such program and followed in the application's other places.Perhaps function can be the part of another program, as, instant messaging program, real-time the Internet chatting programme, file transfer program, music player program, video player program, file sharing program, charging payment services interface routine, or bill separable programming.
Messenger, Microsoft Windows Live Messenger, GoogleTalk or Skype) time, will have an option of paying to another user.The option of paying can conduct interviews by the right-click mouse or by pull-down or cascading menu.The recipient can pass through user name, member's name, telephone number, membership number, account number, or another identifier identifies.Payment will be handled by the mobile payment service server.
[636] example of the thin-client phone or other equipment that comprise web browser application, have the SMS text message has phone or other equipment of WAP browser or terminal emulator.
[637] in specific implementation mode of the present invention, when using Fat Client, the sequence number of storage will for good and all be stored in the counter in the Fat Client.The sequence number of this storage can be followed any arbitrary sequence, as continuous integer or binary counter (for example, 1,2,3,4, or the like), and based on the random series of known initial seed, or according to the sequence of equation, formula or rule.The sequence number of storage can be stored in, for example, and (E^2) storer of flash memory, electric erasable, nonvolatile memory, battery-backed storer, hard disk drive, or in other storeies.
[638] for transaction each time, send idempotence key (in other implementations of the present invention, being called sequence number) to mobile-payment system.For Fat Client, key will comprise the combination of the sequence number of member ID and storage.The sequence number of this storage can be the sequence number of next untapped storage.When mobile-payment system received the idempotence key of Fat Client, transaction was stored in the tran list with the idempotence key.In tran list, each idempotence key is unique with hope all.So, if mobile-payment system receives the transaction that another has the idempotence key that receives in the past, then this transaction can be ignored, because it may be repeat business or safety issue.
[639] in the specific implementation mode, can come mark user's account with potential breach of security mark, study for the people.If the user has many such violations or have many such violations in special time period, so, can automatically suspend this account, so that investigate.
[640] in specific implementation mode of the present invention, when using thin-client, the idempotence key will comprise member ID, Target id, dealing money, and the time (or timestamp).Mobile-payment system will receive this idempotence key, and handle similarly with situation when receiving Fat Client idempotence key.
[641] therefore, mobile-payment system of the present invention goes for dissimilar clients, and each client type can send dissimilar idempotence key or sequence number.This embodiment has two kinds of dissimilar idempotence keys, still, in other embodiments, the idempotence key or the serial number type of any amount can be arranged.For example, can there be three kinds, four kinds, five kinds, six kinds, seven kinds, eight kinds, or more kinds of Key Tpe.
[642] used and guaranteed that Request System carries out the technology of authenticity in the wireless transmission source of transaction.Transaction can be person-to-person remittance or the transaction of other exchange of value.The wireless transmission source can be mobile phone or other similar equipment.The wireless transmission source is with the transaction request transmission security key.System will determine the authenticity of transmission based on the key of transmission.If it is real that transmission is confirmed as, then transaction is handled.The whole bag of tricks that is used for determining authenticity has been discussed.Also can use and prevent to handle the technology that repeats to transmit.
[643] in one embodiment, the present invention includes reception from the electronic request of subscriber equipment with the exchange of value transaction of wireless mode transmission; With electronic request with the key that receives with the related transmission of electronic request; And whether the key of judging described transmission is present in the tran list.If the key of transmission is not arranged in tran list, then transmission will be regarded as real.Therefore, the key of transmission and exchange of value transaction are imported in the tran list, by system exchange of value are concluded the business and handle.If the key of transmission is arranged in tran list, then transmission is not regarded as real (maybe may be to repeat transmission).Therefore, system does not conclude the business to exchange of value and handles.Subscriber equipment can be a mobile phone.
[644] in one implementation, the key of transmission comprises and has identified the electronic identifier of having asked the exchange of value transaction, and sequence number.Sequence number is stored in the subscriber equipment, advances to the next one numbering in the sequence before the next exchange of value transaction of user device transmissions.Then, effective each time transmission all should have different or unique sequence number.
[645] sequence number can be stored in the permanent memory of non-volatile or other form in the subscriber equipment, as (E^2) storer, the magnetic store of quickflashing, electric erasable, or in the battery-backed storer.This will guarantee to transmit each time all and will have unique value.
[646] Chuan Shu key can comprise pseudo random number, as the pseudo random number of using pseudorandom number generator and using the specific seed value to generate.When generating new pseudo random number, seed all will change at every turn, so, will generate the sequence of pseudo random number.
[647] in one implementation, the key of transmission comprises first electronic identifier that has identified the user who has asked the exchange of value transaction, identified the user's of the target of concluding the business second electronic identifier as exchange of value, the amount of money of exchange of value transaction, and with the related time of exchange of value transaction.
[648] in one implementation, the exchange of value transaction can be to remit money to second user with another user device association from first user with user device association.For example, first user can ask to pay a certain amount of fund from first user's account to second user.
[649] Chuan Shu key can not be presented on the subscriber equipment, and so, the user will can not know it.This can be for the people of the fund among the account who prevents to attempt " clone " another user's account and use another user of great use.If show the key of transmission, then another user can low weight loose ground determines the next one numbering in the sequence, use function or equation to generate key, or other can help key is carried out the information of reverse engineering.In further implementation, the key of transmission is encrypted, make the wireless transmission of intercepting key be difficult to carry out.
[650] can send electronic request by the SMS text message service of subscriber equipment.Key also can use the SMS text message service to transmit.
[651] when using dissimilar clients or program, the key that can generate in a different manner or obtain to transmit is as passing through different functions.For example, key can comprise different information.When subscriber equipment uses first application client to send electronic request, key can comprise the first information, when subscriber equipment used second application client that is different from first application client to send electronic request, transmission security key can comprise second information.The example of the first information can be to comprise the key of the sequence number of storage for good and all.The example of second information can be the key that comprises time or timestamp.
[652] first application clients can be Fat Clients, as the exchange of value transactional services application program (for example, writing with J2ME, BREW or .NET CF) or the instant message application program of the special use carried out on subscriber equipment.Second application client can be a thin-client, as the SMS message application on the subscriber equipment, the WAP browser on the subscriber equipment, or the Web browser on the subscriber equipment.When from Fat Client transmission request, the value (as the counter of storage) of permanent storage can be arranged, this will be used for key.Yet, when from thin-client transmission request, may there be the value of permanent storage, on the contrary, time or timestamp can be used for key.System can handle and receive different keys or different Key Tpes.
If the key of transmission is arranged in tran list, this means that [653] transmission sends before may being, perhaps someone attempts invasive system.Can suspend user's account, and further study incident.This will prevent the further illegal transaction to user's account.
[654] in addition, the process that transaction is handled to exchange of value can be included as the exchange of value transaction and generate the transaction ID symbolic code.This transaction ID symbolic code will be generated by the system that request is handled.Can send the electronic information that comprises the transaction ID symbolic code to subscriber equipment.The transaction ID symbolic code can be checked on subscriber equipment.This can make the user have the Ref. No. of transaction, and so, the user can directly discuss or inquire the situation of relevant transaction with the customer service representative.This transaction identifiers can be uncorrelated fully with authentication key (generating on subscriber equipment).Transaction identifiers can be generated by the affiliate of bank who handles transaction.In alternative implementation, key can be used for generating or creating transaction identifiers.
[655] in one embodiment, the present invention includes reception from the electronic request of subscriber equipment with the exchange of value transaction of wireless mode transmission; Receive the key of the transmission related with electronic request; Generate the key of expection; The key of transmission and the key of expection are compared; And, if the key of the key match of transmission expection, then salvage value exchange transaction.The exchange of value transaction can be to remit money to second user with another user device association from first user with user device association, and wherein, subscriber equipment is a mobile phone.
[656] process of the key of generation expection can comprise that using is that the seed that the user account related with the exchange of value transaction stored carries out evaluation to a function or equation.In addition, user account also can be stored the specific function of the relevant key that is used for generating expection or the information of equation.For example, some users can use a specific function to generate key, and other users use other functions.For different users, use different initial seeds, after using each time,, be used to generate next key with creating new seed.In other words, this method further is included in carries out determining the next seed in the sequence after the evaluation to function, and replaces with the seed of user account storage with the next seed in the sequence.
[657] for example, subscriber equipment has counter, is used for the counting of particular sequence, and uses specific function (for example, pseudorandom number generator) to generate the key in this sequence.At server end or system end, server will be known the key of expection, because it is stored in user's the data, also will know with the function that generates key.If the key of the key match of expection transmission, so, user's request is tested and appraised.As mentioned above, employed function or equation can each user ground or each equipment ground, change when perhaps even at every turn using.To be stored in somewhere in the system with the sign of the function of the key that generates expection or equation, as be stored in user's the data.
[658] specifically, the present invention can comprise: retrieve seed from the subscriber data related with the exchange of value transaction; The relevant information of using the function of the key that generates transmission of retrieval from subscriber data; And, use seed that function is carried out evaluation.As discussed above, method of the present invention can comprise also can not comprise different functions.Under these circumstances, function information will not need in the data of being stored in.
[659] key of expection if the key of transmission does not match, then not salvage value exchange transaction.Can suspend and the related user account of exchange of value transaction, to prevent the further transfer of funds, because the situation of the breach of security has taken place.Can carry out mark (for example, be presented on the screen, send Email transfers immediate news) to the account to the system manager, allow the system manager further study.Perhaps can send a robotization Email, with contact customer service representative, because the situation of the breach of security has taken place user's account.
[660] process that transaction is handled to exchange of value can comprise: the transaction ID symbolic code that generates the key that is different from expection for the exchange of value transaction, send the electronic information that comprises the transaction ID symbolic code to subscriber equipment, wherein, the transaction ID symbolic code is presented on the subscriber equipment.
