Definitions
- This invention relates primarily to payment systems and, more particularly, to a protocol for handling messages between multiple wallet servers and payment servers from many different providers.
- Dealers and service providers are increasingly involved in business processes that are carried out via several channels.
- a customer visits a department store, selects items to be bought and exits (checks out), i.e. purchases the items at the retailer's cash register.
- the customer typically pays for the items in cash, with a credit card or check.
- a retailer may be able to increase sales by improving customer friendliness when shopping for goods and services.
- customers who purchase items over the Internet may also wish to complete the actual transaction over the Internet.
- the fact that customers can buy goods over the Internet without physically entering a department store enables a retailer to increase sales and find more goodwill.
- the trader can actually lose sales and good will lose.
- Another customer friendliness available to merchants is to enable customers to make purchases even when the customer does not carry cash, credit card, or check.
- known systems allow a customer to make purchases using wireless devices (for example a cell phone, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant)).
- wireless devices for example a cell phone, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant)
- Retailers therefore typically want to provide customers with multiple payment options and multiple accesses through which goods and services can be purchased.
- these traders are reluctant to offer such flexibility until the transaction can be carried out correctly and on time.
- legacy systems exist to carry out transactions and significant investments have been made to build the legacy system infrastructure.
- Traders are typically reluctant to invest in systems that require the replacement of such legacy systems if the time it takes to get a return of such investments is too long. This means that if a merchant needs to replace an existing legacy system with a completely new system to make payments through a wireless device, the merchant will not be willing to make such an investment.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a method and an arrangement for the simplified processing of payment transactions using a telecommunication network which takes account of the legal regulations existing in various countries and established and proven procedural procedures for monetary transactions.
- the present invention relates to a protocol for performing transactions between multiple customers and merchants.
- the protocol controls the flow of messages and the execution of instructions contained in these messages across a payment system that enables conventional and non-conventional payment methodologies.
- the protocol offers a variety of advantages including that complex transactions can be completed in a reasonable time and with an acceptable customer experience.
- the protocol comprises various sub-protocols. Each sub-protocol has its own defined scope with a clear distinction from other sub-protocols.
- the protocol contains two sub-protocols.
- a sub-protocol is the wallet server, central processor platform and payment server protocol, sometimes referred to as the interoperable mobile payment protocol (IMPP).
- the other sub-protocol is the payment server and merchant server protocol, sometimes referred to as the open payment protocol (OPP).
- OPP controls the exchange of information between a wallet server, a merchant system and a payment server.
- a merchant system can access a payment server via the merchant API rather than the OPP.
- the IMPP is supported by a central processor platform (CPP), which is a central instance for forwarding (routes) messages and other uses payment-related processing.
- CPP central processor platform
- the CPP manages central offer data and, in certain scenarios, finds out a customer's wallet server during payment initiation.
- the CPP also provides the forwarding of payment reports in both directions between a wallet server and a payment server.
- the wallet server contains core customer data, which is required for authentication and payment as well as a transaction history.
- the wallet server is triggered during the payment initiation phase and subsequently sends payment reports to the payment server through the CPP.
- the payment server sends notification messages to the wallet server through the CPP.
- each party can send demand reports to update and review the status of a transaction.
- the payment server keeps the core customer data on payment and transaction history data.
- the payment server also receives payment reports from the CPP and processes the reports.
- the payment server sends a message to the authorized person on the buyer side in accordance with the IMPP and triggers a result report to the CPP and the merchant system.
- the payment server sends and receives the required information to / from the merchant system during the various phases of the payment process.
- All transaction-related messages and message attributes are not stored in each of the three servers, i.e. the wallet server, the payment server and the CPP.
- generation data for the OfferlD are only saved in the CPP.
- the term "merchant system” refers to a purchasing system (for example a commercially available commerce server) and payment plug-in components which are available in a local merchant domain of an SD model-compliant payment system.
- the dealer system sends and receives the required information to / from the Payment server during the different phases of the payment process.
- the transmission of messages between the CPP and the payment server is handled via the IMPP.
- the IMPP makes it easier for merchants to give customers the option to make payments using mobile devices in a reliable, correct and timely manner.
- integration with existing legacy systems is made possible by providing a gateway through which standardized, open protocols (e.g. the IUTP protocol) can be used to communicate with the system.
- the gateway uses the IUTP protocol to translate IUTP messages into IMPP messages and data streams. Retailers therefore do not need to replace old systems and simply connect to the platform (plug-in) on which the IMPP is implemented.
- the invention includes the essential idea of specifying a largely universal payment method based on a conventional bank account ("postpaid”) or electronic credit (“prepaid”), which is particularly suitable for payment processing in so-called B2C (business-to- Consumer) area as well as in the P2P (person-to-person) area is applicable, that means shopping in real and virtual shops, payment in gastronomic or cultural institutions etc. and the "sending" of money amounts in the private area.
- postpaid bank account
- prepaid electronic credit
- the invention also includes the idea of using the possibilities of a telecommunications network for this, in particular the possibility of extensive processing in almost real time (real time).
- the invention also includes the central idea of providing and using a unique identifier - the context identifier - for the cross-transactional identification of goods or services offered by a provider (in particular an entire “shopping cart”) for handling all data transmission associated with offering and paying - and processing operations, in particular the reliable authorization of payment.
- no period of validity is established when the context identifier is generated, so that it is potentially is valid for a limited period.
- the term "static offer” can be used for this. It will be used in particular for the payment of goods or services offered via television channels ("TV Shopping") and for the products offered on vending machines (VM) via a telecommunications network using a telecommunications device.
- TV Shopping television channels
- VM vending machines
- a period of validity is defined and is automatically invalidated when it expires.
- a dynamic offer it will be used for various other shopping and payment processes, in particular for individual shopping campaigns in virtual shops or real shops or department stores.
- the context identifier can be deleted or destroyed at the request of the provider of the goods or services.
- an elimination signal is sent to the provider upon expiry of the period of validity or at the request of the provider, in order to inform the provider of the invalidation of the identifier in question.
- the information transfer of the context identifier to the - potential - customer or customer takes place in a first variant as an invariant optical display, in particular lettering on a shop window display or automatic dispenser or printing on a brochure or catalog or the like.
- the context identifier is transmitted to potential customers as a variable optical display on an electro-optical display device or by voice output or an acoustic signal.
- the context identifier is used in a broadcast procedure outside the telecommunications network, in particular by radio or television transmission or sales sand or distribution of printed matter or e-mail broadcast, during the period of validity is transmitted to a large number of potential customers.
- the possibilities for purchasing goods or services (information!) Offered directly via a telecommunications network have become significantly more important.
- a variant is advantageous for this, in which the context identifier, in particular in a broadcast process, in a short message or via WAP, is transmitted to the customer's telecommunications terminal via the telecommunications network and displayed there.
- the steps of requesting a context identifier by the provider and sending such to the provider or dealer (merchant) preferably run as essentially automated data transmissions between the system administration server and a dealer server or provider data terminal via a data and / or telecommunications network, especially the Internet. This applies both to Internet shopping and to the use of the proposed system by "classic" retail establishments.
- the context identifier is transmitted by the customer via the telecommunications network to a customer server of the network operator or a service provider in the telecommunications network, by the customer server, service server or dealer Server sent a request message to the provider for a binding offer, the provider sent an offer data record to the customer server and the offer data record was transmitted from the customer server to the telecommunications terminal of the potential customer and there for menu navigation Confirmation of the transaction displayed.
- the data transmission is carried out in the steps of the request for a binding offer and the transmission of the offer data via the system administration server, which in particular carries out search and routing functions between network operator or service provider and provider.
- the context identifier can be generated entirely by a suitable generator at a system management server of the proposed system. However, it can alternatively also be generated entirely externally and transmitted to the system management server for confirmation by the provider as part of the request.
- a variant is particularly advantageous for “catalog providers”, in which the context identifier has a first and a second section, the first section being a provider identifier generated or managed by the system management server and the second section being a provider identifier generated or managed by the provider Is goods or goods group identifier and the method comprises a transmission of the second section to the system administration server, the linking of the first and second section in the system administration server and the sending or confirmation of the entire context identifier to the customer or to the customer ,
- the provider can be assigned "number ranges", whereby he continues to use his own catalog number behind a section ("prefix") that represents his identity as a provider. This makes it much easier to use context identifiers in catalog scenarios.
- the combination of the first section (prefix) with the second section (catalog number) - after the prefix has been assigned by the system administrator - can also be done by the provider himself, whereby the responsibility for the uniqueness of the context identifier lies naturally with the provider.
- the customer who is informed of the context identifier will enter it himself on his telecommunications terminal or, if necessary, also by voice input.
- the above-mentioned options for issuing the identifier to the customer can result in an automatic entry process, which is of course more error-resistant than manual entry.
- the identifier is converted in or on a telecommunications terminal, in particular by a camera or a scanner connected to it, from an optical or acoustic signal to an electrical signal.
- the proposed system can be implemented in a number of different configurations, whereby it is technically fundamentally centered around a system management server to which a customer server (hereinafter also referred to as a valid server) and a merchant server (payment server) are assigned and with which these are connected by communication channels.
- a customer server hereinafter also referred to as a valid server
- a merchant server payment server
- a dealer or customer server is used in this context, this also means a plurality of servers from different service providers, financial institutions, etc., which have a corresponding function in the overall system.
- a telecommunications company or customer-oriented service provider, which connects both providers and customers to the system.
- Telco the telecommunications company
- the customer service provider operates Customer and dealer server
- the system administration server is operated by a separate company (hereinafter also referred to as Opco) and is essentially only required for the generation of the context identifier and the ongoing determination of the responsible dealer server.
- the relevant information for the assignment of the dealer and customer servers responsible for a specific transaction is in this case in particular the system administration server.
- a third configuration there are separate customer and dealer service providers, each of which only operates the associated server, while the system operating company (Opco) operates the system management server.
- the system management server essentially only generates or confirms the context identifier and is used to find the dealer server later.
- the system administration server essentially carries the transaction in terms of processing and transmission technology. Finally, it makes sense to configure the system in which the operating company management server as well as the dealer server, while only customer servers are operated by Telco or the customer service provider.
- the second and third of the system configurations mentioned above where there is an independent system management company and thus a so-called "opco domain", are advantageous for the implementation of a very large, in particular global, system with a connection of a large number of providers and customers. They enable the central data storage of the relevant data (OfferlD and server addresses) for a large number of users who process electronic transactions via a large number of dealer servers and / or customer servers.
- the system management server has a code generator unit for generating the context identifier in response to a received request and a code transmission device for transmitting the generated context identifier directly or indirectly to the requesting provider terminal.
- the code generator unit In a modification to a special procedure (“catalog provider”) already mentioned, the code generator unit only serves to generate a first identifier section that identifies a provider, and in a further modification, instead of the code generator unit, means for receiving and for checking the uniqueness are provided externally generated codes and to issue a confirmation signal to confirm the uniqueness (and thus usability) of an externally generated offer.
- the system management server has timer means assigned to the code generator unit and time storage means for assigning and storing a validity period to each context identifier, and a time comparator unit connected to the timer and time storage means for monitoring the process a specified period of validity and for the output of an elimination signal for invalidating the context identifier when expired. It is understood that in the case of the use of static remote IDs, these components are replaced by a deletion unit which responds to a deletion request received from the outside and eliminates the identifier.
- An essential functional component of the proposed system architecture is furthermore a data storage system (OfferlD Repository) for storing and managing all valid context identifiers and information associated with them in the system, in particular data relevant to payment transactions and identifications of data transmission processes that have taken place. With the help of this, for example, for every transaction the responsible customer or Find the dealer server.
- the TK network devices of the customers or customers using the network and on the other hand at least one customer server of the operator of the TK network or a customer-oriented service provider are connected to the TK network.
- the invention also includes the idea of providing a system administration server for the administration and routing of the transaction-related data in relation to the customer as well as the provider side, which is network-connected to at least one dealer server of a dealer-oriented service provider. This will typically involve data network connections that can be linked to the telecommunications network to connect customers, but do not necessarily have to.
- the invention includes the idea of providing suitable data traffic routing means for routing the data records to be exchanged between the parties involved in the course of offer and payment processes.
- the main component of the proposed system thus forms a system management server which, in a practical practical implementation, is essentially permanently connected to a plurality of customer servers in a number of telecommunication networks, in particular mobile radio networks.
- the system management server can be connected to a plurality of dealer servers, each dealer server in turn being connected or connectable to a plurality of provider terminals, and it has a dealer memory for storing identification and Address data of the connected providers.
- the system management server and / or the dealer server (s) are arranged in a telecommunications network, in particular a mobile radio network, and one or more of these form a functional unit with the customer server or customer servers.
- the proposed system can also be implemented in a number of different configurations, although technically it is basically centered around a system management server, which is normally a customer server (hereinafter also called a valid server) and a merchant server (payment server). assigned and with which they are connected by message transmission channels. If "a" dealer or customer server is used in this context, this is also to be understood in the following as a plurality of servers from different service providers, financial institutions etc., which have a corresponding function in the overall system.
- a system management server which is normally a customer server (hereinafter also called a valid server) and a merchant server (payment server). assigned and with which they are connected by message transmission channels.
- a customer server hereinafter also called a valid server
- merchant server payment server
- a telecommunications company or customer-oriented service provider, which connects both providers and customers to the system.
- Telco the telecommunications company
- the customer service provider operates customer and dealer servers, but the system management server is operated by a separate company (hereinafter also referred to as Opco) and essentially only for the generation of the context identifier and the ongoing determination of the responsible dealer server is required.
- Opco a separate company
- a third configuration there are separate customer and dealer service providers, each of which also operates only the associated server, while the system operating company (Opco) operates the system administration server.
- the system management server essentially only generates or confirms the context identifier and is used to find the dealer server later.
- the system management server carries processing and transmission From a technical point of view, essentially the transaction.
- a system configuration also makes sense in which the operating company operates both the system management server and the dealer server, while only customer servers are operated by the Telco or the customer service provider.
- the second and third of the system configurations mentioned above, where there is an independent system management company and thus a so-called "opco-domain", are advantageous for the implementation of a very large, in particular global, system with a connection of a large number of providers and customers. They enable central data storage of the relevant data (OfferlD and server addresses) for a large number of users who process electronic transactions via a large number of dealer servers and / or customer servers.
- the system administration server has a code generator unit for generating the context identifier in response to a received request and a code transmission device for sending the generated context identifier directly or indirectly to the requesting provider terminal.
- the code generator unit In a modification to a special procedure (“catalog provider”) already mentioned, the code generator unit only serves to generate a first identifier section that identifies a provider, and in a further modification, instead of the code generator unit, there are means for receiving and for checking the uniqueness externally generated codes and to issue a confirmation signal to confirm the uniqueness (and thus usability) of an externally generated offer.
- the system management server has timer means and time storage means assigned to the code generating unit for assigning and storing a validity period to each context identifier, and a time comparator unit connected to the timer and time storage means for monitoring the expiry of a specified period of validity and for the output of an elimination signal to invalidate the context identifier on expiry. It is understood that if static information is used, these components are replaced by a deletion unit that is based on one of these components are replaced by a deletion unit which responds to an externally received deletion request and eliminates the identifier.
- An essential functional component of the proposed system architecture is furthermore a data storage system (OfferlD Repository) for storing and managing all valid context identifiers and information associated with them in the system, in particular data relevant to payment transactions and identifications of data transmission processes that have taken place. With the help of this, for example, for every transaction determine the responsible customer or dealer server.
- At least one account management server is directly assigned to the or a telecommunications network, and this works with the system administration server and / or with the customer server to carry out a payment, in particular with access to a prepaid credit , together.
- the or at least one account management server can be arranged outside the network-internal control area of the or each telecommunications network and in particular can be connected directly to the customer's telecommunications terminal.
- the system administration server has a sequence program memory for storing at least one transaction sequence program for data communication between the or each customer. Server and the provider end devices or the or each dealer server.
- a unique identifier - the context identifier - for the cross-transactional identification of goods or services offered by a provider (in particular an entire “shopping cart”) for handling all the offers and Payment related data transmission and processing operations, in particular the reliable authorization of payment, provided.

- the context identifier can be generated entirely by a suitable generator at a system management server of the proposed system, but alternatively it can also be generated entirely externally and transmitted to the system management server for confirmation by the provider.
- a variant is particularly advantageous for "catalog providers", in which the context identifier has a first and a second section, the first section being a provider identifier generated or managed by the system management server and the second section being one generated by the provider or managed goods or goods group identifier and the method comprises transmitting the second section to the system administration server, linking the first and second sections in the system administration server and sending or confirming the entire context identifier to the customer or to the customer ,
- the provider can be assigned "number ranges", whereby he continues to use his own catalog number behind a section ("prefix") that represents his identity as a provider. This makes it much easier to use context identifiers in catalog scenarios.
- the combination of the first section (prefix) with the second section (catalog number) can - after the prefix has been assigned by the system administration - also be carried out by the provider himself, whereby the responsibility for the uniqueness of the context identifier lies naturally with the provider.
- the customer who is informed about the context identifier will enter it himself on his telecommunications terminal or, if necessary, also by voice input.
- the above-mentioned options for issuing the identifier to the customer can result in an automatic entry process, which is of course more error-resistant than manual entry.
- the identifier is converted in or on a telecommunication terminal, in particular by a camera or a scanner connected to it, from an optical or acoustic signal into an electrical signal.
- the invention includes the essential idea of specifying a largely universal system for processing financial transactions on the basis of a conventional bank account ("postpaid”) or electronic credit (“prepaid”), which is particularly suitable for payment processing in the P2P area is applicable, that is, the "transmission" of amounts of money allowed in the private sector.
- postpaid bank account
- prepaid electronic credit
- the telecommunications terminals of the subscribers using the network and, on the other hand, at least one transaction server of the operator of the telecommunications network or a customer-oriented service provider are connected to the telecommunications network.
- a person-to-person payment in the sense of the present invention presupposes the existence of an account “wallet account” suitable for electronic credit transfer on the part of both the payer and the payee.
- the implementation can be done on the one hand in a two-step process by (1) paying to a "merchant" (P2P engine) and (2) crediting to a payee account on the part of the "merchant” or on the other hand - more user-friendly - by integrating the P2P engine implemented at a payer's account management server.
- P2P engine essentially stands for the P2P engine
- the account management server which was also mentioned above, also means "payment instrument”. (PI) can be called.
- PI payment instrument
- the payer contacts the transaction server or the P2P engine via his telecommunications terminal via a telecommunications network (in particular a mobile network) or via his data terminal via a data network (especially the Internet) and specifies an address or another Identifier of the recipient and the payment amount.
- a telecommunications network in particular a mobile network
- a data network especially the Internet
- the payment currency and a text message can be entered.
- a second payment instruction record which is ultimately used to credit the payee, is formed from a first payment instruction record created from the payer entry. In this case (unless already entered when entering) the specification of an account identifier of the payee takes place.
- the transformation between the first and second payment instruction data records typically includes the determination of the server address of the (second) account management server of the payee and a request to the payee's account identifier , After they have been answered, the payment amount can be credited.
- Authentication of the payer with access to subscriber data identifying him as a subscriber of a telecommunications network is provided in the payment process in any case. If the payment process is triggered by its TK terminal (mobile terminal), the authentication uses its MSISDN for an ab initio authentication. If, on the other hand, the payment process is initiated from a data terminal, a confirmation step with access to the telecommunications network, the subscriber of which is the payer, is provided. A confirmation request is also optionally provided as an additional step in the first-mentioned method.
- the first payment instruction record has a first currency code and the second payment instruction record has a second, different currency code, and when the second payment instruction record is created, a conversion from the amount information of the first payment instruction record into an amount information of the second payment instruction record performed due to a pre-stored exchange ratio.
- the hardware and software equipment required for this is provided by the system operator or service provider, and it can be thought of as being implemented in a conversion server or as an additional functionality of one of the account management servers involved.
- the exchange ratio to be applied is provided by the system operator's transaction server, or the latter also performs the conversion as an additional functionality.
- the data transmissions are carried out by and to the payer's telecommunications terminal for a payment, all by short message in accordance with SMS, data file transmission in accordance with WAP or via IVR voice communication.
- SMS variant - especially without additional confirmation - is more useful for low amounts (including "micropayments").
- WAP shop the P2P engine is implemented in the manner of a "WAP shop” that is now known. In any case, it is advantageous to avoid changes in the access medium during the sub-steps of triggering the payment, authenticating and confirming the transfer of credit.
- one of the payee is preferably provided on the basis of user data stored in the system (in particular the transaction server or second account management server). This represents an important measure against the misdirection of substantial payments.
- a procedure is also advantageous in which the payer triggers a deletion process regarding the payment data transfer via a suitable execution of the first transaction server - or also a special interface to his account management server who can cancel the payment.
- a notification of the payee about the proposed credit transfer is provided, and in a special further training the latter can also specify a special payment instrument (an account management server) to which the electronic payment is to be directed. In this sense, current interventions in the payment process by the recipient are also possible.
- the realization of a commercial operation for the system operator or service provider involves the implementation of transaction fees on the message or data side (hereinafter referred to as "settlement amount information").
- the transaction costs can be borne by the payer or payee or split between the two Together with the settlement amount information, a corresponding identification is added to the second payment instruction data record as to whether the payer account or the payee account or both are to be debited proportionately.
- a so-called spread must be implemented in the data transfer process.
- corresponding spread information is included in the conversion of the amount information of the first payment instruction record (in the first currency) into that of the second payment instruction record (in the second currency). This is stored in particular in a database assigned to the transaction server or system management server.
- transaction servers represent an essential component of the proposed system and - depending on the specific system design - with telecommunications terminals and optionally additional data terminals from the payer and - directly or indirectly via further transaction servers - with account management servers on payer and Communicate the payee side.
- the centerpiece of the system is a system administration server, which is connected to several transaction servers in the is essentially permanently connected and can also form a functional unit with a transaction server.
- the system administration server is assigned to a telecommunications network or to several telecommunications networks (in particular mobile radio network (s)). In a preferred system version, this assignment also applies to the (or at least one) account management server.
- the system management server typically has a sequence program memory for storing at least one transaction sequence program for data communication between a payer's telecommunications terminal and the account management server or the transaction server or the transaction servers, and it is expediently a dedicated data storage system for storing and managing all valid user data and, in particular of data-relevant data and identifications of data transfer processes that have taken place.

- an interoperable mobile payment protocol (IMPP) is described in connection with a system which provides for message transmission between a publisher domain and an acquirer domain. Both mobile devices and non-mobile devices can be used in conjunction with the IMPP.
- the IMPP is not limited to use in connection with the specific system described here and can be used in other systems with architectures that differ from the system architecture described here.
- the term "interoperable” refers to the interoperations that are performed between the publisher domain and the acquirer domain.
- the term "publisher domain” (sometimes referred to herein as “publisher”), as used herein, refers to wallet issues. Means of payment are authorized by, for example, banks or are value storage cards. An editor declares a customer valid and the customer has payment methods in his wallet. In some transactions, such as micro payments, a telco or ISP can be a publisher.
- acquisition berdomäne (sometimes referred to here as an" acquirer "), as used here, refers to institutions that acquire transaction-related data from merchants and send this data to a compensation network for authorization.
- customer and “buyer” used here refer to the owners of means of payment (e.g. credit cards) who make purchases from a retailer.
- dealer refers to those who offer goods for sale and / or provide services to a customer against payment by the customer.
- wallet server refers to a secure repository for payment credentials from cardholders that allow a customer to complete a remote payment transaction from any of the multiple devices.
- payment server refers to a server that accepts payment requests from the issuer domain (e.g. a customer or wallet server) to merchants. A payment server may also have merchant deployment capabilities.
- the system requires that a publisher has contracts with consumers and that their accounts (account) handle information.
- the account information includes payment and security information.
- the retailer has contracts with retailers and provides payment services.
- a central processor platform (interop domain) manages interoperability and offers central services such as transaction settlement and billing.
- This architecture maintains traditional merchant and merchant acquirer workflows and extends the existing payment infrastructure with mobile payments.
- the system includes a central processor platform (CPP) which communicates with a wallet server and a payment server.
- the CPP carries out both real time and non-real time processing. For example, the CPP performs routing, OfferlD, search (look-up), currency conversion and transaction management functions in real time.
- Non-real-time processing includes, for example, micro payment billing and settlement, fee processing and invoicing, and asset distribution.
- the CPP includes a routing engine for routing transaction related messages between wallet servers and payment servers in accordance with the IMPP.
- the forwarding machine interrupts the IMPP and forwards requests that include payment transactions as well as responses between external parties. Transactions (macro and micro payments) are therefore carried out by the forwarding machine.
- the CPP also includes a currency conversion server, which is coupled to an exchange rate file, an offer identification (OfferID) server, which is connected to an OfferlD repository (repository), a search (look-up) server, which is connected to a wallet server (WS) / Payment server (PS) directory and a negative file server, which is connected to a customer and merchant negative file.
- the CPP also includes back end processing functionality such as micro-payment settlement and billing, and billing and management.
- the CPP comprises a billing and administration server and a micro payment server, which are coupled to a transaction protocol (lock).
- the billing and administration server is coupled to a new company rule database, which contains rules for the billing and distribution of investments to companies that are new to the system.
- the billing and management server is also coupled to a database which contains billing data.
- the CPP forwarding engine listens to IMPP messages, allowing multiple wallet servers to communicate with multiple payment servers through a single entity. By forwarding payment transactions through the CPP, adding additional participants has no impact on the existing installation and simplifies adding additional participants.
- the CPP forwarding engine receives external notifications of macro payment entitlements and completes the transaction logs and exchanges notifications of any status changes between the other involved parties to keep the WS, MS and Encorus processor platform transaction logs consistent.
- the authorization between WI and providers of micro payment means is carried out.
- the authorizations are therefore transferred to the payment server with the payment message flows.
- the forwarding machine maintains transaction records and stores all information about a transaction together with a unique transaction ID (transaction ID).
- the search for the payment server and merchants involved in a transaction is carried out on the basis of an OfferlD (OID) or RangelD.
- OID OfferlD
- RangelD RangelD
- the BasketlD is dissolved and transferred to the MC together with the OID in order to inquire about the shopping basket.
- the specific retailer determines whether the OID or the BasketlD are used to identify the shopping basket.
- the combination of RangelD and dealer catalog number is transferred to the MC to inquire about the shopping basket.
- the participant list contains all MSISDNs and pseudonyms (aliases) of the customers, which are registered for mobile payment.
- the home wallet server ID (home wallet server ID) is also saved for each MSISDN / pseudonym.
- the MSISDNs / pseudonyms, which are not entered, can be rejected early by the CPP during processing.
- the OfferlD identifies a shopping basket. In order to identify the basket information in a comprehensive (cross) WI / MA scenario, the OfferlD is generated centrally. The OfferlD can be used for the mobile payment scenarios for both micro and macro payments. In most cases, OfferlDs are entered via a mobile device with limited capabilities regarding the size of the display and usability of the keyboard.
- the OfferlD generator generates an OfferlD on request and the OfferlD repository stores generated OfferlDs together with additional data for search purposes and manages the OfferlD lifespan. Subsequent payment transactions can use the same offer for payment transactions (e.g. VM, TV purchase (shopping)). Static OfferlDs can be "rented" by dealers on a monthly or yearly basis. Dynamic OfferlDs mark a temporary offer, have a certain lifespan and are used by a single customer. A dynamic offer is automatically deleted as soon as a transaction is completed or the maximum lifespan is exceeded.
- the OfferlD repository stores information about a requested OfferlD. If age checks, address changes or GI data transfer are requested, the relevant identifiers are set in the OfferlD repository data record.
- the OfferlD repository also monitors the issued OfferlDs and sets one OfferlD status to "locked" (black-out) as soon as the associated service life expires.
- the OfferlD repository also supports manual deletion requests.
- the search services use the OfferlD repository to find the associated payment server.
- the merchant negative file either prevents registered merchants from signing up for mobile payment with any merchant acquirer or initiating any transaction in the registered state.
- the ID, the URL and the dealer name are saved together with a time.
- the buyer negative file either prevents registered buyers from signing up for mobile payment on any wallet server or initiating any transaction in the registered state.
- the ID, name, name, date of birth and MSISDN are saved together with a time.
- CPP Since international transactions are handled by CPP, CPP provides a central foreign exchange (FX) rate acquisition, spread management and a currency conversion service.
- the CPP calculates amounts in customer currency (if they are different from the merchant transaction currency).
- the FX server stores foreign currency exchange rates and performs currency conversions to settle international micropayments and fee statements.
- the wallet server communicates with buyer devices e.g. via device-specific gateways such as WAP and SMS gateways and stores buyer and transaction-related data such as MSISDN, billing and shipping address, credit card numbers.
- the wallet server provides customer support functionalities and handles payment protocol processing.
- the wallet server sends authorization requests to a micro payment instrument ( ⁇ PI).
- ⁇ PI micro payment instrument
- Each wallet publisher provides at least one micro-payment means, which is either operated by the publisher or is accepted on the wallet server of a third party.
- the ⁇ PI can be different Type, for example a dedicated value storage account system, a Telco prepaid account or a Telco telephone exchange.
- the payment server PS processes the IMPP protocol between the CPP and the merchant and processes an open payment protocol (OPP (open payment protocol)) in the direction of a merchant component.
- the PS is connected to macro payment officers (e.g. credit card payment officers) via a payment gateway in order to forward authorization requests.
- the merchant component (MC) is integrated in the merchant's purchasing system to enable an OPP.
- a buyer accesses a merchant's shop, e.g. via a specific purchasing channel (e.g. WEB, WAP, IVR, TV) or reads information and product offers on a vending machine.
- a specific purchasing channel e.g. WEB, WAP, IVR, TV
- the buyer uses his mobile phone to connect to a wallet server (access scenario (pull scenario)) or is called by a wallet server (push scenario).
- the authorization is provided by the mobile phone network and the authorization to pay for any type of payment means (e.g. micro-payment means, credit card, debit card) can be carried out.
- a 3-domain model defines a process for electronic payments.
- issuer domain refers to the issuer and owner of bank cards or other means of payment (e.g. publishers and customers) and to those who act on behalf of the issuer (e.g. the wallet server).
- issuer domain refers to those who acquire payments from a publisher domain.
- agreement domain refers to the interface between the publisher and acquirer domains to enable interoperations (i.e., processes between the publisher domain and the acquirer domain) for electronic payments.
- the usual payment flow is described below as a sequence of steps and with reference to FIG. 2.
- the payment flow described below is based on a a purchase that was carried out via a network such as a wide area network (e.g. the Internet).
- a network such as a wide area network (e.g. the Internet).
- a wide area network e.g. the Internet
- Step 1 Shopping. A customer browses (buys) an offer of a merchant's goods / services. As a result, an order is stored in the retailer's purchasing system.
- Step 1 Initiate payment.
- the URL contains information that enables the wallet server to determine the context of the payment (e.g. merchant URL and order identification).
- the customer provides the trader with the URL of the wallet server (e.g. the customer can select the URL from a drop-down list) so that the trader can compile the correct URL for the reference.
- the wallet server can at least identify the trader and the order.
- Step 2. Authorization The customer logs into the wallet server. The authorization is carried out by the wallet server (which in many cases is the same as the publisher). Once the customer is authorized, the customer retains access to the customer data.
- Step 3 Obtain the order information.
- the wallet server retrieves the order information (order description, payment amount) from the trader.
- the merchant also returns the URL of his payment server and the accepted payment methods.
- the wallet server shows the customer the order data.
- Step 4. Choosing the payment method.
- the wallet server represents a list of available payment methods / means from which the buyer can choose, based on the list of payment types accepted by the merchant and the stored payment means of the buyer.
- the wallet server retrieves the order details and the accepted payment methods.
- Step 5. Check the payment method.
- the wallet server first contacts the publisher to verify that the selected form of payment is valid.
- the publisher can return further data (in addition to a simple yes / no answer) at this point (eg for a one-time token, which is used specifically for the upcoming payment).
- Step 6 Payment.
- the wallet server sends a payment request to the payment server on behalf of the customer.
- Step 7. Review the job.
- the payment server connects to the merchant's shopping system to verify that the order data received from the wallet server is authentic.
- the payment server receives all the data needed to process the payment.
- Step 8 Capture.
- the payment server forwards the payment data to the acquirer.
- the acquisition step can be performed asynchronously if a postponed delivery is used.
- Step 9 Compensation.
- the acquirer makes a physical payment, i.e. the acquirer executes the payment request through a financial institution in a backend operation.
- the compensation can take place asynchronously (e.g. in stacks (batches)).
- the clearing network processes the transaction and the money is transferred to the merchant's account.
- Step 10 Notification.
- the payment server notifies the merchant of the success of the transaction.
- the notification can also be done asynchronously.
- Step 11 Delivery request.
- the wallet server provides the merchant with the delivery address. This step can be carried out at other points in the message sequence, e.g. before payment or later, asynchronously.
- the SET gateway checks the Signature of the cardholder.
- Current payment systems may also omit some of these messages, or the way certain information is processed may vary, for example, the buyer notification may be returned to the merchant or, in some cases, omitted entirely.
- the steps can also be intertwined or further split.
- the protocol includes various sub-protocols. Each sub-protocol has its own defined scope with clear boundaries to other sub-protocols.
- a sub-protocol is referred to as the interoperable mobile payment protocol (IMPP) and is used for messages between and via the wallet server OpCo and the payment server protocol.
- the other sub-protocol is the open payment protocol for the exchange of information between the payment server and the merchant system.
- the IMPP determines the communication between the following components through the OpCo domain.
- the IMPP introduces a central instance for forwarding messages and other payment-related processing, which are sometimes referred to here as the OpCo domain.
- the OpCo keeps the central offer data and in certain scenarios finds out the customer's wallet server during the payment initiation.
- the OpCo (via the CPP) provides the forwarding of payment reports in both directions between a wallet server and a payment server.
- the wallet server contains core customer data that is primary to authorization and payment, as well as a transaction history.
- the wallet server is driven during the payment initiation phase (triggered) and subsequently sends payment messages to the Becomposingsser ⁇ ver on the OpCo.
- the wallet server is notified by the OpCo when the status of a payment transaction has changed and can query the status of a particular transaction to update the transaction history.
- the payment server keeps the merchant core data for the payment and the transaction history.
- the payment server also receives payment reports from the OpCo and processes the reports.
- the payment server sends messages to the authorized person on the part of the acquirer and triggers result notifications to the OpCo and the dealer system.
- the payment server sends and receives the required information to / from the merchant system during the various phases of the payment process.
- the term “merchant system” relates to a purchasing system and payment plug (p! Ug-in) components, which are provided on the local domain of a 3D system II-compliant payment system of the merchant.
- the merchant system sends and receives the required information to / from the payment server during the various phases of the payment process.
- the merchant system provides a local technical indication of the payment system in the merchant's purchasing system, often supplemented by a shopping plug-in.
- Step 1 A description of the method or protocol which is used in connection with the messages between the wallet server and the payment server in connection with a transaction follows, as shown in FIG. 3.
- Step 1. Shopping. A customer searches (buys) goods / services and an order is stored in the retailer's purchasing system.
- Step 2 and 3 Initialize the offer context.
- the request is forwarded to the OpCo by the payment server.
- the offer context is saved and the related OfferlD is sent back to the payment server and the merchant system in the response.
- the offer context includes information which indicates whether an age check should be carried out and whether a delivery address is required by the dealer.
- Step 4 View the OfferlD.
- the buyer is either shown the OfferID to continue the interaction via the (different) payment channel, or the buyer is forwarded to his wallet server via the OpCo (with the same payment channel, not shown).
- Finding the wallet / payment server URL is done within OpCo and URL if necessary.
- the URL is not required if the wallet server does not need the payment server address.
- the payment channel can be different from the purchasing channel. Sufficient information is provided to the buyer to identify the order and to enable the CPP to generate a payment call.
- Step 5 Enter the OfferlD.
- the buyer is asked to enter the OfferID received from the store in their wallet.
- the buyer is identified and authorized on the wallet server by the MSISDN of the buyer's cell phone in the payment channel.
- Step 6 Payment call.
- the wallet server forwards the OfferlD to the OpCo and receives the payment request information back. This includes whether an age check should be carried out and whether a delivery address is required from the dealer. The buyer is authorized and receives access to his data.
- Step 7. Submit the offer. The wallet server looks up the order information (e.g. order description, final payment amount).
- Step 8 The data is forwarded by the OpCo to the associated payment server.
- Step 9 The payment server queries order details from the merchant.
- the merchant system also returns the accepted payment methods.
- the wallet server then shows the customer the final order data.
- the message exchange takes place through the OpCo, but not directly to the dealer as in the 3D model.
- the wallet server therefore does not need to know the retailer's network address.
- the wallet server also forwards the delivery address to the merchant to recalculate the final payment amount and the result of an age check that may be desired by the merchant.
- the wallet server receives the order details and the accepted payment methods.
- the means of payment to be used are selected and declared valid.
- Step 10 Select the payment method.
- the wallet server represents a list of available payment methods / means, from which the customer can choose, based on the list of accepted payment methods of the merchant and stored means of payment of the customer.
- Step 11 Pre-authorization.
- the wallet server contacts the authorizing officer on the publisher's side to check whether the selected means of payment are valid, to carry out limit checks and to pre-authorize payment in the case of a new company scheme that conforms to interoperable micropayments.
- Steps 12 and 13 Authorize payment.
- the wallet server sends a payment request to the OpCo on behalf of the customer. This can include the result of pre-authorization in the case of schema-compliant micropayments.
- the OpCo forwards the request to the associated payment server.
- the payment server receives all the data required to process the payment. Step 14. Cross-check the offer.
- the payment server connects to the merchant's purchasing system to check whether the order data received from the wallet server is authentic.
- Step 15 Eligibility.
- the wallet server forwards the payment data in the case of macro payments to the payment authorized person on the part of the acquirer or checks the result of the pre-authorization in the case of schema-compliant micro payments. Both steps 11 or 16 are carried out mutually exclusive in order to authorize payment by OpCo.
- the clearing network processes the transaction.
- Step 16 Billing.
- the payment officer on the part of the acquirer makes the physical payment, i.e. processes the request in the financial end components (financial back-ends). Equalization can be carried out asynchronously (e.g. in batches).
- the wallet server notifies the merchant of the success of the transaction. Such notification can also take place asynchronously. The trader therefore knows whether the payment was successful and is able to start delivering the goods.
- Step 17. Delivery.
- the result of the payment is displayed to the customer. Once the ongoing payment is complete, the customer can continue to interact with the store.
- a payment slip is typically important for the customer, especially to start accessing the digital content immediately after payment.
- the goods are delivered in the shopping channel or asynchronously.
- the wallet server receives a payment receipt on behalf of the buyer.
- Step 18 through 19 Capture.
- deferred or split amounts can be recorded and the payment is (partially) refunded or a credit is given asynchronously by the dealer.
- This action can be triggered by retailers in the purchasing systems and is forwarded to the payment server.
- the payment request is sent by the payment server to the authorized payment officer forwarded on the part of the acquirer.
- the money is booked to the dealer and transferred after settlement.
- Steps 20 through 23 Status notifications and request status.
- the OPP manages the exchange of information between the wallet server, the merchant system and the payment server.
- the IMPP manages the communication between these components and the OpCo domain.
- the OPP specifies additional messages for information exchange via IMPP and the OPP manages the information exchange via the OpCo domain, which depends on the specific purchase and a payment channel or a combination of both.
- the OPP depends in part on the supported payment and purchasing scenario.
- the OPP determines the exchange of information between the components involved via the OpCo domain by using the IMPP.
- the OPP does not manage communication within the publisher and acquirer domains.
- the OPP message flow is described in the "Payment initiation" phase and the "Post-payment" phase of the 3D model.
- the "initiation of payment” phase of the model describes the location of the wallet server and the wake-up message.
- the "postpay” phase describes the notification and delivery process.
- the OPP does not manage the communication between the customer and the dealer system, since this communication is determined by the dealer or the purchasing system.
- the OPP hides the payment, the shopping and scenario-specific data so that the underlying IMPP does not have to take this data into account.
- the OPP uses the underlying protocol to exchange messages between the wallet server and the payment server. This means that the wallet server and the payment server do not support direct network communication. All communication between the wallet server and the payment server is managed by the same IMPP, which manages the entire communication between the three components wallet server, process platform and payment server. Therefore, message pairs must be encapsulated by the OPP in additional messages in order to use the to transfer the underlying sub-protocol. Two new pairs of messages are required for the exchange server (WS Transfer (WSTransfer)) and the payment server (PS Transfer (PSTransfer)). The message pairs are described below.
- the wake-up call request is issued by the merchant system in order to initiate a wallet attempt in certain payment scenarios. This request is sent to the processor platform, which initiates payment through the customer's corresponding home wallet server.
- the wake-up call process depends on the combination of the purchasing and payment channels.
- Delivery request and response message The delivery request is submitted by the wallet server in order to inform the merchant system of a completed payment transaction.
- the dealer system can use this notification to initiate the delivery process.
- the delivery process depends on the payment and purchasing scenario.
- the Resume Request is issued by the Wallet Server to complete an interrupted delivery of online content.
- the IMPP manages the payment-specific communication between the wallet server, the dealer system of the processor platform and the payment server.
- the OPP manages the exchange of information via the OpCo domain, which depends on a special purchasing and payment channel or a combination of both.
- the IMPP is independent of the supported payment and purchasing scenario.
- the IMPP performs the following functions: It provides a brand transfer between customer and dealer, recalculation of amounts through the dealer system; it provides job information exchange; it provides age testing skills; it provides address exchange with and without payment; it provides an extension mechanism for the exchange of additional information in the defined message flow. supply; it provides payment entitlements including "capture now" facilities for macro and micro payments; it provides an OfferlD administration; and it provides an extension mechanism for the exchange of additional messages through the CPP.
- Wallet server and between a merchant and the payment server is independent of the IMPP.
- the IMPP takes no account of the combination of different purchasing and payment channels. Problems resulting from the combination of different purchasing and payment channels are managed by the OPP part of the protocol stack.
- the IMPP provides a protocol layer to manage global communication between wallet servers and payment servers through a single processor platform.
- the OPP and IMPP take account of payment, purchasing, customers, dealers or telco-specific requirements.
- the IMPP provides a mechanism for the transmission of messages from higher protocol layers via the CPP.
- Different wallet servers or payment server providers are able to extend the function to a higher protocol layer without direct communication between the wallet server and payment server outside the IMPP.
- Providers of wallet servers or payment servers implement the IMPP for communication via the CPP.
- the IMPP processes messages between all components involved via the OpCo domain. It does not cover communication within the publisher or the domain of the acquirer.
- the IMPP processes the message flows described in the "order exchange” phase and "payment” phases of an SD payment phase model.
- IMPP reports are classified according to different areas.
- all message pairs in a payment area are interpreted as OpCo.
- these messages are issued by the wallet server to perform a payment transaction.
- the OpCo receives the message and interprets its content for transaction logging or fee management.
- the messages to the payment forwarded for special processing.
- the corresponding message response is sent to the wallet server via the CPP.
- the CPP picks up the incoming request and sends a response back to the wallet server.
- the CPP interprets all messages within this area.
- Other areas include an extension area, a notification area and an offer area.
- FIG. 5 shows IMPP messages and each message type would be explained below.
- the PayPurchase request is submitted by the wallet server in order to initiate a purchase via IMPP.
- This request is sent to the payment server via the CPP.
- the CPP acts as a proxy for this pair of messages.
- the Paylnquire request is given by the wallet server to initiate a request via IMPP. This request is sent to the payment server via the CPP.
- the CPP acts as a proxy for this pair of messages.
- the PayStateUpdate request is submitted by the payment server to update the transaction status on the wallet server. This request is sent to the wallet server via the CPP.
- the WSTransfer request is submitted by the wallet server to initiate a transfer of additional information via IMPP. This request is sent to the payment server via the CPP.
- the CPP acts as a proxy for this pair of messages.
- the WSTransfer message pair can be used to transfer messages from a higher protocol layer via IMPP.
- the content of this pair of messages is processed as an anonymous date by the CPP.
- the PSTransfer request is issued by the wallet server to initiate a transfer of additional information via IMPP.
- This request is sent to the payment server via the CPP.
- the CPP acts as a proxy for this pair of messages.
- This PSTransfer message pair can be used to transfer messages from a higher protocol layer via IMPP.
- the content of this pair of messages is processed as an anonymous date by the CPP.
- the WSNotify request is made by the wallet server to notify the CPP of additional information.
- the CPP processes the request and replies with an appropriate response. For example, this request is used to inform the CPP about the interruption of the message flow by the customer. In this way, the CPP is able to handle the situation within the CPP, for example deleting the dynamic OfferlD in the context repository.
- the PSNotify request is made by the payment server to notify the CPP of additional information.
- the CPP processes the request and replies with an appropriate response. For example, this request is used to inform the CPP of an interruption in the message flow.
- the OfferCreateContext request is submitted by the payment server to create a new OfferlD in the context repository. After processing the request in the corresponding OfferlD server, a response message is sent back to the payment server. This pair of messages is not visible to the wallet server.
- the OfferDestroyContext request is submitted by the payment server to delete an OfferID entry in the context repository. After processing the request in the corresponding OfferlD server, a response message is sent back to the payment server. This pair of messages is not visible to the wallet server.
- the OfferModifyContext request is given by the payment server to change an OfferID entry in the context repository. After processing the request in the corresponding OfferlD server, a response message is sent back to the payment server. This pair of messages is not visible to the wallet server.
- FIG. 6 shows a valid message sequence for the protocol.
- FIG. 7 shows an OfferID message sequence.
- the currency conversion is on the side of the Wallet servers performed.
- FIG. 8 shows a WAP-WAP micro payment sequence. In FIG. 8 there are two redirects, in particular a redirection to the CPP, which was initiated by the trader, and one to the home wallet server, which is initiated by the CPP was initiated.
- FIG. 9 shows a WAP-WAP address transmission without a payment sequence and
- FIG. 10 shows a vending machine macro payment sequence.
- FIG. 11 shows a static OfferID generation sequence.
- the OfferlD has the following status.
- Deactivate The dynamic transaction models for macro payment have in common that the owner of the transaction status is the payment server. In the status model shown in FIG. 12, the transaction states and transitions are used for an immediate macro payment, often referred to as “sales” transactions. No separate step to finance the payment is carried out on the part of the dealer / acquirer.
- the status model shown in FIG. 13 describes the transaction states and transitions which are used for a macro payment credit. It is used by traders to issue a credit on a macro cash. This is done by merchants to refund payment after the actual transaction has been cleared.
- the status model shown in FIG. 14 describes the transaction states and transitions which are used when the macro payment is delayed. This is used when the merchant makes an authorized payment with some delay, e.g. when the goods are shipped. If only partial dispatch is possible, the partial entry can be used once or continuously. The customer can track the detailed payment status in his wallet.
- One state machine is provided for the life of the initial transaction and another state machine is provided for the life of partial transactions.
- FIG. 15 represents a status model for partial macro payment.
- a partial macro payment transaction has its own lifespan and the buyer's wallet is notified of all events relevant to partial payment.
- the dynamic micro-payment transaction models have in common that the owner of the transaction status is the wallet server, due to the fact that the customer's billing system maintains payment until billing.
- Figure 16 illustrates the status model for the transaction states and transitions which are used for immediate micropayment, e.g. a low value transaction is used, which was initiated at a vending machine.
- Figure 17 illustrates a status model for the transaction states and transitions used in delayed micropayments. This is used if the trader only partially or several times with an authorized schema-compliant micropayment with very low entry amounts ("Sofort (Instant)” payment, eg "Pay per time” or “Pay per extent (pay per volume) "transactions).
- Figure 18 illustrates a status model for transaction states and transitions, which is used to execute a micro-payment credit. This is used by merchants to transfer a credit to a customer microbe payment medium. Merchants need this to refund payment after the actual transaction has been cleared.
- the IMPP message structure consists of a two-layer structure, namely a message wrapper and (an HTTP request or response) and a message (an XML unit (entity)).
- An IMPP message is processed synchronously and has an XML message element (request / response pair), which is contained in the corresponding HTTP request and response (wrapped). This request / response pair represents a complete protocol conversation unit. If an IMPP message is simply forwarded to another unit by a specific technical function, only the message envelope is processed by the forwarding unit. The message itself can remain unprocessed in order to avoid additional processing above XML syntax analysis (parsing) and writing (writing).
- the message envelope depends on the protocol used
- the transport wrapper is a valid one HTTP / 1.0 request header / response header according to RFC822.
- the HTTP request procedure (verb) used is POST.
- Figure 19 shows an IMPP message structure.
- the request and the response to a message are both shown as a serialized XML structure.
- the XML basic element (root element) ⁇ ImppMessage> contains an XML 'element only' element ⁇ Header> and exactly one request or response XML 'element only' element.
- the ⁇ Header> element contains the sub-elements Id (for message idepotency) and version.
- a generic example message is the following: ⁇ ImppMessage>
- a connection that has been established can be reused after the exchange of a complete protocol conversion unit in order to exclude a TCP connect / accept / close overhead and to increase the efficiency.
- the HTTP keep-alive protocol is used to coordinate the technical functions involved at the application level.
- a connection that has already been established can be reused in the same direction, i.e. within the same client / server role allocation.
- the applications of the wallet server and payment server process recognition (non-repudiation). Either corresponding attributes in the protocol elements or extended elements / attributes can be used.
- the VPN processes the encryption of all communication between wallet servers and OpCo as well as between payment servers and OpCo. The VPN only establishes connections between two parties that have successfully mutually authorized. The sending of application data requires the authorization process to be ended.
- the protocol also specifies a version negotiation mechanism between the technical functions, but is independent of the specific version compatibility rules applied.
- the protocol includes sending the protocol version used in the message header.
- the version agreement process is shown in FIG. 20 and described further below.
- Step 1 A payment component sends an IMPP request to the OpCo using the highest IMPP version that is supported by the sender.
- Step 2 The OpCo checks the version and processes the result.
- Step 3 a) Check OK: The request is forwarded to the recipient.
- the payment component sends the IMPP request again using the highest common version or stops with an error.
- Step 4. The payment component checks the version and processes the result.
- Step 5 The answer is sent back to the OpCo.
- Step 6 The OpCo creates an average between own and by versions supported by the recipient and sends cisa error messages back to the sender, which contains this information.
- the payment component sends the IMPP request again using the highest common version or stops with an error.
- IMPP flows occur in pairs. Every message sent by a requesting participant is replied to by a responding participant. The flow of errors (in contrast to other flows) is determined with regard to the inquirer and respondent, since this is used when the respondent cannot reliably identify the incoming message. An error indicates that a respondent rejects a message because of a format error or content verification tests have failed. The responder sends an error (rather a negative response code) if the responder cannot trust any of the fields in the incoming message. Typically, an error is used to respond directly to the sender of a message if it is not possible to clearly limit the error to an incorrect value of a field. The error message is not used to display normal business results such as a denied authorization. Business results are displayed using explicit codes in standardized response messages.
- IMPP messages may be grammatically determinable (parseable) but malformed by not following the protocol requirements, values may be incorrect, or messages may be corrupted, usually as a result of transmission errors.
- duplicate messages enough information appears in the plain text of the message cover so that it can be found out whether a message is a retransmission or not.
- the response of the recipient to a double Message depends on the indemotency property (described in detail below) of the message type, the number of doubled messages, the source of the double messages and the observed frequency between subsequent double messages. If a system is suspected of being exposed to flooding or ad fraud, duplicate messages can be ignored.
- a damaged message is a message that cannot be parsed. Typically, a possibly corrupted message should not be received because the message transport mechanisms cause corrupted data to be returned. However, if a damaged message is received, a corresponding error message is returned, which indicates that a damaged message has been received and provides a request / response pair identifier of the message if it is available. It is accepted to ignore the message completely if insufficient data has been extracted to be able to respond to it. With regard to malformed messages, a corresponding error message is returned by the sender if a message can be determined grammatically but is otherwise incorrect due to values outside of a range or inconsistent options.
- An application does not generate an error message in response to another error message. All IMPP components send an error message if a low-level processing error occurs on an IMPP response avoidance. Any message that is not recognized as an IMPP message is ignored. The IMPP components usually avoid sending error messages on the same channel as request messages.
- ErrorCode Numbered code that defines the error condition.
- ErrorDescription A free description of the cause of the error.
- ErrorObjectID The object identifier of an unsupported critical extension that triggered the error.
- ErrorMessage The message that generated the error.
- the IMPP protocol is based on request / response pairs throughout the protocol.
- the error message does not conform to this paradigm because it can be an answer to either a request or an answer.
- the former case is not a problem.
- difficulties can arise if the underlying transport is based on a request / response paradigm, as in a World Wide Web browser.
- the error message can be sent as a request message and the protocol will not request a response message (the underlying protocol can be time out). User permission may be required for an error message sent as a result of the operational limitations of a World Wide Web browser.
- the HTTP message header contains a status code which indicates the processing status of the corresponding message unit as a whole. Each business error is indicated by the components regardless of the notification status.
- the following status codes are defined as a specific message, which the 5xx status code areas of the HTTP standard use to display application-specific errors.
- the XML body of the HTTP response is omitted.
- the application-independent status codes as defined by HTTP are used for all HTTP-specific outputs (eg 400 bad requests).
- idempotency is a property of how a recipient replies to a message. Every request in the IMPP that does not receive a response is sent again because the sender does not know whether the request or response was lost. The transmitted message is bitwise identical to the original request message. Usually a double message is not an error condition.
- the IMPP protocol works in environments where reporting is not guaranteed. If an IMPP application does not receive a response in a reasonable amount of time (determined by the application or possibly in response to a user question), it sends the message again. If the received IMPP application determines that it has previously processed the same message, it retrieves the previous response and sends the previous response again. If the sender of a message does not receive the response, it is usually not possible to determine whether the request or response has been lost. To further complicate this condition, the original request may simply have been delayed anywhere in the network and then possibly processed shortly before the retransmitted request arrives. Therefore, the protocol allows the sender to repeat the request with the guarantee that the result will be the same regardless of whether the request or response was lost.
- the IMPP contains messages that are designed so that they can be sent at any time, so that it is not necessary for a recipient to save every request to determine whether a duplicate has been received.
- the IMPP products guarantee the identity of the protocol by checking a transaction ID and generating a time stamp in the message header. For example, a payment server refuses attempts to repeat pay authorization requests from a wallet server. The payment server recognizes these attempts by checking the message header of the Authorization request. If an IMPP component detects that it is exposed to malicious flooding or adware attacks that involve no or more idempotent IMPP message types, it is not necessary to respond to these messages in this situation.
- the IMPP component can use any method to identify idempotent requests.
- One possible method is to store the SHA-1 hash of the message header for all messages. If a duplicate is recognized, the hash of the message header can be generated and used to look up a stored Idempot entry. In this approach, the IMPP component must keep a full copy of every incoming request, but can produce a bit-by-bit identical response. A bit-wise response is generated here as a new response with the same information. If multiple responses to an idempotent request are received, the recipient can ignore all such responses after the first.
- An IMPP component is not required to respond to messages if it detects that it is exposed to malicious flood or adware attacks that involve one or more types of IMPP messages.
- the IMPP components can build their own criteria for detecting such attacks.
- a protocol extension is used.
- the mechanism used to extend IMPP messages is the same as how X.509 certificates are extended.
- an extension field is made available which contains a sequence of extension data.
- the extension data indicate the type of extension and the criticality of the extension.
- An extension has three components.
- an object identifier that uniquely identifies the extension. This identifier allows IMPP components to recognize an extension and to process data.
- a criticality indicator indicates whether the recipient understands the extension to process the message that contains the extension.
- the data provide the additional business information, which makes it necessary to define the extension. The interpretation of the data is determined by the organization that created the extension.
- the criticality indicator is a boolean value. An extension is considered critical if this value is True. Otherwise the extension is classified as uncritical. The default value is False. If an extension is critical, recipients of the report recognize and process the extension. If an extension is not critical, recipients who cannot process the extension can safely ignore the data. A set of information objects was created for each data structure, which can contain an extension. These records define the extensions that are allowed in the data structure for processing.
- IMPP applications fall into one of two categories. In particular, in an application that does not support message extensions and in an application that supports some selected sets of message extensions.
- An IMPP component that does not support message extensions detects the presence of an extension in a message and checks the criticality indicator. If the extension is critical, the IMPP component does not process the message and rejects it with an error code unrecognizedExtension. If the extension is not critical, the application can ignore the data in the extension and process the rest of the message.
- An application that supports message extensions detects the presence of an extension in a message and processes the extension as follows.
- the application does not support the object identifier for this avoidance and the extension is critical, the application does not process the message and rejects it with an unrecognizedExtension error code.
- the OpCo is the ultimate decision-making body as to whether a given data element is encrypted within a message.
- the OpCo can do that
- Extension Refuse to use any extension that contains data that may affect the integrity of the IMPP.
- Each extension is identified by its extension name, owner name, and a unique extension identifier.
- An IMPP component can decide to add a critical extension to carry additional information in the normal IMPP message flow to use. If the receiving IMPP component does not understand the data without the extension and therefore cannot process it, the message should be rejected.
- transaction management is distributed, i.e. a wallet server and payment server involved in a transaction communicate using IMPP messages.
- Both servers contain a status mechanism, e.g. Waiting for replies, checking for interruptions (time-out) and sending query and recovery messages in the event of errors.
- the CPP also maintains status information because IMPP messages are forwarded by the CPP.
- the "owner" of a transaction is the party responsible for the primary status transitions during the life of a particular transaction.
- the synchronization mechanism used depends on the technical ownership of the transaction. There are different possible ownerships for different payment models supported by IMPP, as described below.
- the IMPP provides the corresponding messages or message sequences to support the payment model. There are at least two different ways to synchronize transactions using IMPP.
- Notify the distribution of information about a status transition is carried out by the owner of the transaction.
- Synchronize The distribution of information about a status transition is triggered by a remote participant of the transaction.
- Notify / Confirm is available if it is supported in the corresponding protocol flow. If available, only one notification is made per transition. As a result, unacknowledged notifications from the owner are not considered.
- the synchronization is available for remote participants in order to query transitions to a final status several times. The statuses and their transitions are described in detail from the protocol perspective, which means an abstraction from the implementation in the payment components. If a component needs the "history" of a status, i.e. the transition that leads to a status, the component can instead maintain a 'composite state'.
- each payment component defines its own way to delete transactions, i.e. to convert a particular transaction from an ultimate business status to an ultimate technical status. This is done asynchronously and is not covered by IMPP protocol messages.
- CPP components that perform centralized tasks, such as the OfferID generator, the search (look-up) service and the FX server, are used by the forwarding engine to support the payment process.
- Transaction log entries are created to meet legal requirements and to enable decoupled (offline) mode processes such as billing.
- Address change inquiries, age verification inquiries and inquiries about changing the means of payment are also supported together with regular payment inquiries. Quality marks are transmitted together with these inquiries / answers and indicate the level of quality of the underlying data.
- the forwarding engine receives external notifications of macro payment entitlements and acquisitions, completes the transaction logs and status change exchange notifications between the other involved parties to keep WS, MS and CPP transaction logs consistent.
- the redirection engine provides a redirection component which processes redirects 1 in which the customer's browser moves from the merchant URL to his or her home wallet URL via a CPP URL and directly back to the merchant URL is redirected after the transaction is completed.
- the redirection component provides a central redirection URL, which traders can usually use to display the OfferlD.
- the buyer can enter MSISDN / pseudonym / alias in a familiar environment to enable push-back or fall-back scenarios (if MSISDN cannot be recognized).
- the redirection component forwards the buyer's pseudonym to the wallet server.
- the WS then triggers an IVR call (WAP) to the buyer.
- the redirection component should not be used for non-mobile customer authorization (web-web scenario), for example with a pseudonym PIN, because customer authorization is the responsibility of the wallet server.
- the redirect engine supports redirects, in which the customer's browser redirects from the merchant URL to his home wallet URL via an OpCo URL and directly back to the merchant URL after the transaction is completed is redirected.
- the CPP provides a central URL to display the OfferlD. Therefore, the retailer does not need to integrate the OfferlD display into the purchase flow.
- this URL provides input fields for MSISDN / pseudonym to initiate a start.
- Each transaction by the CPP is checked to see if the type of transaction is 'under us', in which case the 'under us' flag is set within the transaction record (affects both variants).
- the initiated payment flow is ended by sending the PS search information to the WS.
- All requests originating from either the wallet server or payment server are logged together with the ID of the corresponding wallet server or payment server.
- the logging of 'among us' transactions is done in the same way as for schema transactions, but the 'under us' indicator is set.
- the search service performs searches for the wallet server and payment server on request. Based on an OfferlD, the search service determines the corresponding payment server by searching the OfferlD repository. In the opposite direction, the home wallet server can be accessed by accessing the subscriber list.
- the search for the PS and retailer involved in a transaction is based on the OfferlD or RangelD.
- the BasketlD is resolved and transferred to the MC together with the OID in order to request the shopping basket.
- the retailer decides whether the OID or the BasketlD is used to identify the shopping basket.
- the combination of RangelD and dealer catalog number is transferred to the MC in order to query the shopping basket.
- the participant list contains all MSISDNs and pseudonyms of the buyer who is registered for mobile payment.
- the HeimgeldbörsenserverlD is also saved for each MSISDN / pseudonym.
- the wallet server instances use online inquiries or generate a flat file that contains all new or changed participants and transfer the file to the OpCo to update the participant list.
- Pseudonyms are generated on the WS in accordance with the alias generation rules (3 digits identify the WI, 8 digits as the buyer ID and a checksum number).
- the OfferlD server component of the CPP comprises the OfferlD generator, which generates an OfferlD on request, and the OfferlD repository, which saves generated OfferlDs together with additional data for search purposes and manages their lifespan.
- the OfferID numbering system ensures, depending on the number of OfferIDs used at a certain time, that the number of digits used can vary in order to always provide the smallest possible number. For some mobile payment scenarios, the size of the OfferlD is not critical at all (e.g. bank nodes). Depending on the requested service life, the following table shows the minimum length of an OID:
- the length of the OfferlDs (table above) is configurable. Depending on the contract with a dealer, certain areas of OfferlDs can be reserved for a dealer. The dealer pays a usage fee for the area and can use any (catalog) number after the area code to map the ID for his offer. By using this mechanism, the dealer can reuse existing catalog numbers by simply adding up his specific dealer prefix.
- Checksum tests enable the wallet server to check an OfferlD immediately and to request additional user input without having to communicate with the CPP. The probability of accidentally identifying another active shopping basket by incorrectly entering an incorrect OfferID should be low enough to make the risk tolerable. At least a single wrong digit, additional / missing digits and mixed up digits can be recognized. The checksum digit is not available for RangelDs.
- the prefix (not necessarily a whole number) carries certain tax information, where it is important to call it up directly from the OfferlD without access to the OID repository.
- the CPP_ID is encoded in the OfferlD prefix to enable OID forwarding.
- the OfferlD generator generates OfferlDs on request. Static and dynamic OfferlDs can be generated. OfferlDs are issued once. Subsequent payment transactions can use the same offer for payment transactions (eg VM, TV purchase). Static OfferlDs are 'rented' by traders on a monthly or yearly basis. When the rental period expires, the OID switches to the 'black-out' status, from which the OID can be reactivated if the dealer continues the rental agreement. The trader must handle the parallel use of the static OID. OfferlDs identify a temporary offer with a certain lifespan and are used exclusively by a single customer.
- An offer is automatically deleted as soon as a transaction is ended or the maximum lifespan is exceeded.
- Bank node scenarios use, for example, a dynamic OfferlD with an extended lifespan. If a customer cancels a transaction after entering the OfferlD, the OID is not deleted. However, all OfferlDs can be explicitly deleted on request.
- an OfferlD is determined by the dealer upon request for dynamic OfferlDs. After the lifespan has expired, the status is set to 'lock (black-out)'. The maximum lifespan will be one month. OIDs cannot be reissued during the blocking period. The lockout period is configurable and depends on the lifespan of the OID:
- the merchant can set certain attributes to indicate the type of request (payment, age verification, address transfer, PI transfer of details).
- the retailer can issue a list of brands to support brand matching with PI detail transfers.
- the shopping basket can be connected to the offer.
- the OfferlD is determined by the dealer upon request for a static OfferlD. After the rental period has expired, the OfferlD status is switched to 'blocked'. The minimum rental period is 1 month. The rental period begins with the generation of the OID, not with activation.
- the request for a single OID can be made by the MC (same for dynamic OIDs). Because the shopping basket is transferred with the request, the static OID is automatically activated after the request.
- the trader can request batch generation of OfferIDs according to the CPP numbering scheme. This request is carried out by the dealer self-service and not directly by the dealer component. As a result, the dealer receives a file that contains all generated OIDs and the expiry date of the rental period.
- the retailer has the opportunity to reuse existing catalog numbers with the mobile payment scheme.
- the dealer Upon request for a RangelD, the dealer specifies the number of sub-IDs that he wants to use. The dealer is identified during the search. The combination of RangelD and catalog number is forwarded to the retailer to receive the shopping basket.
- the OfferlD repository contains all information about requested OfferlDs. If age checks, address exchange or PI data transfer is required, the relevant flags are set in the OfferlD repository record.
- the OfferlD repository monitors the issued OfferlDs and sets statuses to 'lock' as soon as an associated lifespan expires.
- the OfferlD repository also supports the manual deletion of inquiries.
- the search service uses the OfferlD repository to inquire about related payment servers.
- the OfferlD repository supports the deactivation of OIDs.
- the MC only allows deactivation for individual OIDs. This feature can also be used if an item is temporarily unavailable or the retailer wants to have an extended blocking period. The deactivation does not extend the rental period. If several OIDs have to be deactivated, the MSS is used.
- the repository supports changing static OIDs (ie linking other BasketIDs, change request types or extending the rental period).
- the repository supports batch modification of static OIDs (ie linking of other BasketIDs, change request types or extension of the rental period). This request is carried out by the MSS.
- a single OID can be activated. Multiple OIDs can also be activated by the MSS. In order to carry out such an activation, the dealer loads a list of BasketIDs together with all other request parameters. After the OID block has been generated, the dealer receives a location file.
- the OfferlD repository automatically deletes OIDs when the lifespan expires or when a transaction is ended. A buyer's termination does not result in the OID being deleted.
- the OID repository also allows the deletion of OIDs in simple (single) and batch (batch) mode. With dynamic OIDs, deletion results in immediate removal, while with static OIDs, deletion sets the OID status to 'lock (black-out)'.
- the MSS enables the trader to restore an OID with the status 'blocked'. Static OIDs must be blocked when the lease expires. During the blocking period, the dealer is able to reactivate the OID by asking the MSS to extend the rental period.
- the negative file service provides a central and common (consolidated) database to block traders as well as customers.
- the wallet server and payment server instances can check against the database on the basis of a query, just as can synchronize their local negative file directories with the negative file service on the processor platform.
- a single trader can be added to the negative file together with a time entry.
- the negative file can be checked to determine if a record exists for a single trader.
- a dealer-acquirer can trigger this check from outside.
- a single dealer can be removed from the negative file.
- a list of dealers can also be imported into a negative file. When a Dealer is already listed in the negative file, the associated data record is skipped. Merchant file records in the file can also be flagged for removal. These dealers are removed from the negative file during the import.
- a dealer negative file can also be exported. For example, a file can be downloaded (downloaded) or transferred to a dealer-acquirer to update a local negative file.
- a single buyer can be added to the negative file along with a time entry in the record.
- the negative file can be checked to see if it contains a record of a single buyer.
- a purse issuer can trigger this check from outside.
- the CPP can also check every transaction against the internal negative file.
- a single buyer can be removed from the negative file.
- a list of buyers can also be imported into the negative file. If a buyer is already listed in the negative file, the associated data record of the file can be skipped.
- Buyer records in the file can also be flagged for removal. These buyers are removed from the negative file during the import.
- a file that contains all negative file records that have been generated after a certain time can be exported. This file can then be downloaded or transferred to a wallet issuer to update a local negative file.
- the system supports three different currencies: the currency on which the transaction is based; the registration currency of buyers at WI; and the currency that the MA settles with the CPP.
- the amount of a transaction from the transaction currency to the WI settlement currency is calculated before the authorization of the Customers and deduction converted by the SVA. Since both currencies are displayed to the customer and the SVA is deducted based on the underlying exchange rate, there may be currency risks that are covered by additional exchange rates.
- the OpCo contains a currency risk if a ⁇ PI is justified if the settlement with the MA cannot be carried out on the same day. In these cases, the OpCo can add a surcharge to the exchange rate.
- the currency conversion table stores currency rates.
- a record is generated for each currency pair (EUR / GBP) and (GBP / EUR).
- the time stamp stores the information of the last update of the data record. Additional status information can be saved in the 'Status' field (e.g. expired).
- the currency conversion table is updated on a predetermined regular basis by contacting an exchange rate service provider and importing the updated exchange rates into the conversion tables. The timestamp and status are also updated.
- the status field of the currency conversion table is set to 'expired' 1 when the currency pair has been updated for a certain number of days (ie one day, configurable). Expired currency pairs have no influence on the currency conversion.
- the conversion table can be exported to a file that can be downloaded by the wallet provider or the OpCo finance department.
- the courses include the OpCo surcharge.
- An example table is shown below.
- Timestamp status (current, expired) With regard to the spreadsheets, additional OpCo spreads are stored in an additional spreadsheet (ie a spreadsheet). A record is generated for each currency pair (EUR / GBP) and (GBP / EUR). The time stamp stores the information of the last update of the data record. Additional status information can be saved in the 'Status' field (eg expired). Administrators can update markup percentages for currency pairs by transferring a flat file to the FX server, which is then imported into the markup table.
- An example of a surcharge table is shown below:
- the CPP converts amounts based on exchange rates and CPP surcharge and transfers the amounts in TX currency, converted currency, and conversion rate. With this process, the exchange rate synchronization can be omitted because the most current exchange rate is used.
- Currency conversion is carried out in accordance with the rules of the European Central Bank (ECB European Central Bank)). When units of national currency are expressed in EUR, the amount includes six numbers before and / or after the decimal point. When converting the currencies into EUR, interim results are calculated to a minimum of 3 decimal places (after the decimal point). Currency amounts that are shown in EUR are rounded up or down to the nearest euro cent.
- Administrative facilities for OpCo administrators and the finance or securities department of OpCo are provided. This facility Examples include managing the process for getting exchange rates via the defined interface to the exchange rate provider, setting rules for updating the status, viewing and manual editing of exchange rates, viewing and manual editing of exchange rate surcharges and viewing the exchange log and historical data.
- the administrator alerts certain event triggers. For example, the following event triggers trigger messages to the administrator:
- the administrator receives alarms as a message in the administrator GUI. In addition, he can choose to also receive alarms by email or SMS.
- the administrator uses the administrator service GUI to access detailed error lists / reports. Detailed error messages are not transmitted with a notification.
- Log events only with key attributes Log events only Log errors only.
- the log files are stored for processing for up to three months.
- the transaction logs are then archived for 10 years. All operational processes comply with legal requirements, such as the Data Protection Act.
- a NewCo data protection strategy should be established and made binding for all NewCo participants in order to increase buyer confidence.
- the CPP Compensation and Billing (C8-S) service processes compensation requests initiated by dealer acquirers, collects amounts to be settled by the MA and settled with the ⁇ PI provider. Additional billing data records and information are generated in order to make billing details available to all ⁇ PI providers (WI and MAs). The transfer of funds is triggered on a general ledger system.
- the clearing and billing service supports both single currency billing and multi-currency billing. With multi-currency billing, the MA is billed in different TX currencies. For each MA, the main data record shows all the accounting currencies of the MA and whether the MA was selected for single or multi-currency accounting.
- preprocessing Mediation and coordination
- Collecting PIs and MAs can be done in parallel.
- the result of the process is documented in a settlement report (including error codes) and a 'aggregation table', which is used for posting in the general ledger.
- the dealer-acquirer initiates C-S by sending the compensation file containing the registration / authorization token to the CPP-C&S service.
- the C8 ⁇ S service reconciles the MA clearing file with the internally collected transaction logs.
- a settlement report is generated to inform the trader of all transactions that are being settled and of all rejected transactions.
- a TX clearing data record contains the AcquisitionID, PaymentMediaD, TransactionID, amounts and the processing status as described below:
- Transaction data from the MAs are compared with the internal CPP-TX protocols belonging to the same time period for validation purposes. Data records that do not match are collected in an error file.
- the error file serves as the basis for error detection and the parts that are to be assigned to a special employee are copied into the employee's billing report. Four classes of matching results are possible.
- TX incompatibility incompatibility between data belonging to the same TX in the accounting file and in the EPP TX protocol.
- Missing TX The EPP TX protocol contains an entry that has a counterpart in the MA's accounting file. (The log record is marked with "missing TX” if a collection for compensation was not received within a certain time, e.g. a week; "garbage collection").
- the compensation with the MA provider takes place according to the MA compensation process.
- Reconciled transaction records of the preprocessing procedure are collected for each merchant acquirer.
- the collection process leads to an MA billing report and provides the basis for the MA billing (aggregation table).
- the collection table stores amounts that were collected over a certain accounting period.
- the format of the collection table is shown below:
- a separate collective table is calculated for each billing currency.
- the collective table forms the basis for the posting (instructions for billing) and part of the billing report is sent to the MA.
- the settlement report contains results of the reconciliation and collection steps (including error messages) with regard to a special dealer acquirer. According to the report process, the billing report is saved in the corresponding MA directory (probably daily).
- the compensation with the ⁇ PI provider is done according to the PI compensation process.
- Reconciled transaction records from the preprocessing procedure are collected for each payment method provider.
- the collection process leads to PI billing reports and provides the basis for the PI
- the collective table is the basis for posting (initiation of settlement) and part of the settlement report is sent to the PI provider.
- the settlement report contains the results of the reconciliation and collection steps (including error messages) regarding a payment method provider.
- the accounting report is saved in the corresponding PI directory (probably daily).
- the CPP-C&S service triggers the G / L system to initiate the physical transfers of funds to the MA and from the ⁇ PI provider.
- the OpCo settles gross amounts with the PI provider (car payment). Fees are billed separately.
- the CPP scrolls through the PI collective table for PI posting and creates a flat file with posting data records (eg direct debit inquiries) for batch input to a G / L system (eg SAP FI) and sets the indicator for the associated log records and the collection table.
- posting data records eg direct debit inquiries
- G / L system e.g SAP FI
- the CPP scrolls through the MA collective table and creates a flat file with posting data records for batch input to a G / L system (e.g. SAP FI) and sets the indicator for the associated log data records and the collective table.
- SAP FI e.g. SAP FI
- the G / L prints invoices and instructions and initiates transfers of funds.
- the transfer of funds can follow a different process than posting, for example, depending on the value to be settled.
- the reconciliation step identifies incorrect transactions which are stored in an error TX file. An attempt is made to correct errors manually. Results of this error correction step (eg 'corrected', 'rejected' 1 ) are included in the corresponding MA billing report. Rejected data records are marked with error codes.
- reports are generated to track the correct processing of billing-related data and to detect suspicious behavior (eg there * s Deleting collection tables, manual Buchun- gene, log file manipulation).
- intelligent deception detection algorithms can be used to update negative files, eg user profile checks: detection of unusual user behavior, suspicious increases in a user's turnover, payment location checks: checking whether payments came from distant locations within a short time.
- a process mechanism triggers the switching, the coordination and MA and ⁇ PI compensation.
- the booking step can be planned for each MA or ⁇ PI.
- the booking process and the threshold for the minimum settlement amount are stored in the main data record. The administrator monitors the correct process and manually triggers processing steps if this is necessary.
- a batch process (e.g. daily, weekly, monthly) is carried out for billing transaction fees, since the number of transactions can be very high, i.e. in the range of several million a day.
- the task of fee processing can be split into the following steps, as shown in FIG. 26.
- the rating catalog contains event definitions and pricing / rating information. Rules for special fees (e.g. monthly fee) and discounts are stored in the calculation catalog. Stored procedures define processing and billing periods and trigger the various processing steps.
- the invoice detail repository contains the cleared events and forms the basis for detailed reports such as EPA (electronic payment advice). Invoices are sent to the G / L to initiate billing (payment run).
- a mediation module keeps track of the log files that are received from various log file sources.
- the main source is the daily log files from the processor platform routing module.
- Other sources include data that could not yet be processed, e.g. corrected records from the rejected and returned processes.
- the data is filtered and possibly reformatted.
- measuring means to assign a price to each event.
- a valuation table is used to set the prices for each event class.
- the evaluation table is generated before the evaluation process is started and remains unchanged during at least one billing period.
- An individual evaluation table can be used for each invoice or instruction recipient, depending on the individual business agreements between OpCo, NewCo, the MAs, PI providers and the WIs.
- the fee structure is designed in such a way that it is generally sufficient to cover all fees that usually occur in transaction invoicing.
- Transaction pricing may depend on the actual number of transactions and the average value of the merchant or merchant acquisition payment transactions.
- a general approach to covering such a fee structure is to use a price table in matrix form.
- Event type (OfferlD request, address verification, recording, etc.) payment channel (WAP, IVR, SMS)
- the settlement currency (a separate price table for each currency can be used if an MA has been selected for multi-currency settlement).
- IMPP expansion messages volume-related, for example per message or per kilobyte
- Other central services tbd.
- ie PayPurchase request ie PayPurchase request
- currency conversion ie PayPurchase request
- PS search ie PayPurchase request
- the billing process gathers all rated events related to an account (receivable or payable) in a single billing record. Recurring participation fees or special fees are added up and discounts are deducted. Special fees and discounts may vary for each instruction recipient.
- the evaluated events are compiled by invoice (receivable accounts / affordable accounts) and the fees are collected. A valued event that contains multiple sub-fees is part of multiple invoices. Discounts or other fees (e.g. participation fees) are added to each invoice.
- the invoices contain the total amount to be calculated (credited or collected).
- the invoice detail reports contain the data records that are used to calculate an invoice for a special recipient.
- the files of the invoice detail reports are sent to the participant on request.
- the invoice instructions contain collected items in an invoice. Formatting and issuing instructions is subject to the general booking system.
- the booking initiates the collection of charges and the distribution via the main booking system. Invoices are marked “booked” as soon as the booking has been initiated. At the end of the billing cycle, all invoices are transferred to the general ledger (payment run).
- invoice details are marked “delivered” or invoices are marked “booked"
- the data is archived in a mass storage device.
- Archived transaction logs and invoice files form the basis for the settlement of disputes.
- the CPP provides an access interface to the logged transaction details and invoice details for the disputed managing authority available, such as a customer care center. Disputes regarding the collection and distribution of fees (transfers of funds) are managed by downstream services (back office). Deception detection reports should also be generated in order to track the correct processing of invoice-related data and to find suspicious behavior (eg deletion of invoice files, manual postings, manipulation of log files).
- the Securities Department uses a General Ledger (G / L) system to manage fee collection and distribution bookings and micropayments.
- G / L General Ledger
- the clearing and billing service and the billing machine initiate bookings on the G / L system.
- Bookings can be made to reception customers and payment customers of OpCo, NewCo, all WIs, PI providers and MAs.
- Recurring bookings are made for each micro-payment billing cycle and for each billing period (daily, weekly or monthly). Instructions are printed for each booking (micro-booking billing or billing) and sent to each recipient. Physical transfers of funds to / from MA, to / from WI and to NewCo bank accounts are initiated. Micropayments with MAs should not be done until the ⁇ PIs receive payment.
- Irregularities in the flow of funds are tracked and reported, and calls are generated automatically when funds transfers are late.
- the G / L operator can request reports on cash flow and pending cash transfers (for cash management). In the event of incorrect postings, retransmissions can be be initiated manually due to incorrect fee calculations.
- Connection data address, telephone, email, etc.
- ID payment server address URL
- Internal G / L booking account number Bank account number
- Billing and billing processes (possibly multiple) Billing currencies status (registered, active, inactive, deleted)
- Connection data (address, telephone, email, etc.) ID

- NewCo main data name Connection data (address, telephone, email, etc.) Internal G / L booking account number Bank account number
- Billing and billing processes (possibly multiple) billing currencies status (registered, active, inactive, deleted)
- connection data address, telephone, email, etc.
- the administration service encapsulates the diverse administration facilities of the various components, provides a single sign-on for the administration user and logs of all user activities. The following administration tasks are carried out centrally since they are valid for all CPP components.
- the security manager has exclusive access to security and system logs to review system operations and detect inside delusions
- the main data administrator creates and changes main data entries and changes the status of the shareholders (e.g. active / inactive),
- the customer care role assigns these access rights to the main data, transaction logs, billing details and settlement reports.
- the customer and dealer validity check during the registration process is carried out centrally.
- the WS sends a test request to the CPP for each customer.
- the CPP carries out the validity check by checking information such as name, address and age.
- the test result is sent to the WS together with a quality indicator that indicates the service used for the validity check (this can be based on agreements between the CPP and WI / MA).
- IMPP interoperable mobile payment protocol
- the protocol has a core or base layer (IMPP Core Layer) and an extension layer (IMPP Extension Layer), whereby for the former the actual payment area (payment ranks), the context identifier area (OfferlD ranks) and the message area (Notification ranks) belong.
- the extension layer includes optional requests and responses between the customer and dealer server instances. It also enables a communicative connection to third customer servers. Communication between the customer and the customer server on the one hand and the provider and dealer server on the other is outside this protocol.
- FIGS. 29A to 29C, 30A to 30C, 31A to 31C, 34A to 34C and 36A to 36C for essential types of transactions or payment transactions are self-explanatory.
- FIGS. 32A and 32B and 33A and 33B This also applies to the processes illustrated in FIGS. 32A and 32B and 33A and 33B during the generation and the deletion or destruction of a static offer.
- FIGS. 35A and 35B The steps and aspects of a clearing procedure illustrated in FIGS. 35A and 35B depend on whether a so-called merchant acquirer is involved or not. They follow the organizational practices of established clearing procedures in conventional money transactions.
- Figures 37 to 40 are essentially self-explanatory due to their labeling, so that an additional verbal description is not necessary.
