Abstract

An apparatus and method of effecting an electronic transfer of funds between a payer account and a payee account wherein the payer account and the payee account are each held at a financial institution that is a member of a financial settlement network. A payer 101 transmits a purchase order 200 to a payee 102 via a business hub 103, which purchase order identifies the payer. The payee, in response to receipt of the purchase order, transmits an invoice 201 to the payer via the business hub, which invoice identifies the payee account for crediting funds for the purchase. The payer, in response to receipt of the invoice and subsequent to approval of the purchase, transmits a secured payment instruction 202 to a payment gateway 104, which payment instruction identifies the payer account for debiting. The payment gateway, in response to receipt of the secured payment instruction and subsequent to ensuring authenticity 203 of the payment instruction, creates a payment request message 204 for the payer's financial institution 106 and passes the payment request to the settlement network 105. The payment gateway 104, in response to a payment authorisation message 205 from the payer's financial institution, notifies payment approval 206. The financial settlement network 105 facilitates settlement 209 of the transfer on a net basis between the payer's financial institution and the payee's financial institution.

Description of Invention (/) ⑴ Field of Invention The present invention relates to an electronic payment system that facilitates integration with existing financial services networks. And international fund transfers, Father Easy ', whether it is business-to-business transfers, business-to-consumer transfers (and vice versa), and consumer-to-consumer transfers. In particular, the present invention (though not unique) is a method and device related to achieving electronic fund transfers, similar to a wire transfer, which uses a global public communication network (such as the "Internet") and a business hub to integrate credit card payment configurations And financial networks used by financial institutions. The transaction of different currencies can also use the electronic payment system of the present invention. (Π) Discussion of the background technology Existing configurations for enabling fund transfers usually involve an enterprise or consumer providing instructions to a financial institution via a branch. The above operations may be provided in person or in writing, or directly through a corporate office, providing dedicated Workstation financial structure. Manually preparing instructions is slow and inefficient, and the cost of building and maintaining dedicated workstations for consumers, businesses, or financial institutions will be prohibitive. Consumers and businesses include parties who want to trade in goods or services, and anyone who may want to remit funds to other parties, or those who are required by the environment and who are authorized signers. At present, when a financial institution performs cross border payments on behalf of a payment party (payer), the payment instruction of the party is usually manually converted into a message by the payer's financial institution, and then transmitted to the receiver (receipt) people). Such messages must usually be combined according to specific agreements, such as SWIFT. These agreements are usually bankable and other gold. 4 paper sizes are applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210 X 297 mm) --- ----------------- Order -------- * line (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 513680 A7 '_ B7 ..... — V. Description of the invention (2) Identification and acceptance of financial institutions. If the financial institution of the payer and the financial institution of the payee do not maintain a specific relationship with each other ’, additional information * must be sent to the financial institution of the payer's financial institution. The role of the SWIFT financial network is to route information between member financial institutions (usually banks). Some data verification actions are performed, but such verification usually does not include verification of transaction-related information, such as the payer's account number at the payment financial institution, because financial networks like SWIFT do not maintain such information. Member financial institutions pay each other for individual transactions. If financial institutions are also included, multiple payment “legs” are required. Payments must be executed for each transaction, which increases service costs and may cause delays in the transfer of funds. When a financial institution wants to provide different foreign currency services, it must maintain a separate relationship for each currency they want to provide in each place. When the payment takes place several days after the payment is authorized, the payer of the foreign currency will also bear the risk of inappropriate exchange rate changes. Summary of the invention 的 Objective of the present invention The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a device and method for achieving electronic funds transfer. As with wire transfer, it is compared with the traditional fund transfer configuration, which provides faster and more economical payment processing. Methods. Another object of the present invention is to provide a device and method for achieving electronic funds transfer, which can be quickly and easily established through integration with existing financial networks, especially networks and configurations used for credit card payment purposes. . 5 ^ The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (cns) a4 specification (210 X 297 mm) " " " " " " " " (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page)

發生率,這在以前的系統中就需要被修復,因而本發明的 系統能降低處理的成本。 本發明也爲在信用卡支付網路中的所有金融機構的當 事人,提供了一種直接的介面。金融機構不需要花費金錢 和資源來發展專屬的工作站來支援當事人。 當事人能透過一個網頁應用程式即可操作它們在不同 金融機構內的不同的帳戶,而且如果大多數相關的金融機 構都採用此系統則會產生經濟規模。針對金融機構之當事 人的建立和維護之網頁應用程式的成本會比金融機構的專 屬系統還低。 付款人的付款指不被此系統轉換成一種支付訊息,其 可在信用卡網路上被載送。金融機構不須任何人工作業, 因此能更進一步地節省成本。信用卡網路能方便地提供企 業對企業交易路徑及處理服務。 許多金融機構已經擁有支援信用卡網路所須的基礎建 設。金融機構可以網路爲基礎上支付,而非以每一筆交易 爲基礎,這可降低支付金融機構所需維護的收支。

Financial Institution of the Invention (s). The electronic funds system of the present invention provides several payment systems that are superior to traditional payment systems such as SWIFr. Although the client's application procedure reduces the error rate when making and receiving payments, the system can perform party verification immediately when each transaction is established. This verification is strengthened by the financial institution certification information obtained when each payment instruction is reviewed and approved. Therefore, the error rate is reduced, which needs to be repaired in the previous system, so the system of the present invention can reduce the processing cost. The invention also provides a direct interface for parties to all financial institutions in a credit card payment network. Financial institutions do not need to spend money and resources to develop dedicated workstations to support the parties. The parties can operate their different accounts in different financial institutions through a web application, and if most relevant financial institutions adopt this system, it will generate economic scale. The cost of building and maintaining a web application for parties to a financial institution is lower than that of a financial institution's proprietary system. The payment by the payer is not converted into a payment message by this system, which can be carried on the credit card network. Financial institutions do not need any manual work, so they can further save costs. Credit card networks can easily provide business-to-business transaction paths and processing services. Many financial institutions already have the infrastructure required to support a credit card network. Financial institutions can pay on a network basis, rather than on a per-transaction basis, which can reduce the revenue and expenditures that financial institutions need to maintain.

In this example, the payer 101 (e.g., the buyer) wants to obtain a particular item or service, and the payee 102 (e.g., the seller) provides the item or service for sale. The payer and payee may know each other through the introduction of a commercial hub or commercial portal 103, where the commercial hub or commercial portal 103 is associated with the payment gateway 104. In this example, portal 103 allows businesses to provide goods and services that are directly electronically ordered by other businesses that have specific needs and have used the portal to search for and obtain details of the required goods or services. The payer 101 and the payee 102 can communicate with the portal 103 and the payment gateway 104 through a public communication network 109 such as the Internet. The system 100 typically allows additional commercial portals 105 and 106, which, like portal 103, can also communicate with the payment gateway 104 via the Internet. However, for the sake of clarity, only one payer and one payee are shown in the illustration. It will be understood that such business entrances or hubs can each provide multiple payees and more Potential payer interaction device. For example, portals may work with specific relevant business units. 15 This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 x 297 mm) ------------- installed (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Order- ------- Line 1 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 513680 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Description of the Invention (ί)) Payment gateway 104 provides an access to the payment network The interface of Road 105, here is the credit card network, which uses a specific communication protocol to connect the payer financial institution (such as payer bank 106) and the payee financial institution (such as payee bank 107), and the agent finance Institutions (such as correspondent banks 108). In this embodiment, the financial network includes a private security communication network that can connect to member financial institutions, the purpose of which is to maintain credit card transactions like VISANET. Again, although many financial institutions are members of the relevant credit card alliances, only the payer bank 106 (of the payer 101) and the payee bank (of the payee 102) are shown in the figure. In other embodiments, the processing capacity of the payment gateway or the processing capacity of the selected module may be located in a selected financial institution. In order to use the electronic funds transfer system 100 of this embodiment, each party may be configured with a unique configuration, whether the party is a payer 101 or payee 102, or both. This will include at least the details of the payer account 111, and the payee account 112 if necessary. The parties of a business entity can also create user groups to define the functional access and data access rights of individual users in the business entity to the system. Each business entity may also have the right to access multiple accounts from multiple financial institutions, so financial institution accounts are mapped to specific parties. As mentioned above, if the parties are commercial entities, the set-up procedure also includes designating signers and assigning each account to an authorized signer. In one configuration, the payer account is associated with a signature matrix, in which the signing unit of which the party is a commercial entity is in the fund transfer system. This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 public love)- ------- ^ --------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) 513680 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Invention Description (w) Granted specific access rights. Digital signatures for consumers, whether they are payers or employees of the paying business entity, are issued to the account signing unit. Digital signatures issued to consumers are used by multiple accounts, but are usually specific financial institutions. Consumer users can then initiate their digital signature through a trusted certification authority 110. Preferably, each party is responsible for all internal security matters. The electronic system's authorized signatures will be checked for expiration due to processing (explained further below). However, in this configuration, the liability for pre-processing fraud is usually borne by the payer. To establish the configuration, the financial institution needs to establish a card account for each payer, and then assign the card account number to the payer. Similarly, a common, trusted certification body should be agreed by financial institutions. The trusted unit 110 is preferably independent and external, and will assume the responsibility of registration and certification of the signing agency through a security configuration such as a digital signing mechanism. A database linked to the payment gateway 104 stores the information of the necessary parties, accounts and financial institutions, which will be detailed below. A method for achieving electronic funds transfer in the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 2. In this embodiment, the payment party will already be registered in the payment gateway 104. In this example, the payer 101 has previously logged in to a business hub, such as a business-to-business (B2B) portal 103, via the Internet, and has decided to purchase specific goods or services provided by the payee 102. The payer 101 transmits a purchase order 200 to the payee through the B2B entry 103. After receiving the purchase order, the payee 102 creates an invoice 201 which can be used to identify an account 112 of the payee's lender funds for this purchase. The 17 paper sizes are applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210 X 297 public love) -------------------- ^ -------- -Line (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 513680 Printed by the Consumers' Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Description of Invention (c) The account is preferably registered from a gateway 104 The beneficiary account is selected from the list, so the possibility of incorrect information is reduced (this will cause delayed payments). The invoice is sent to the payer through B2B entry 103. It must be understood that in other variations of the present invention, the purchase order and invoice may be provided by mail on paper or by phone orally. Upon receipt of the invoice 201, the payer 101 or a suitable signatory in the payer's business establishment will check and approve the order by creating a payment instruction 202. The payer will choose which currency and that account number to pay before the invoice and other invoices are processed for approval. The B2B portal may also allow payers or managers or other payers who are signers of business entities to review through a payment gateway login and approve payments on an individual or batch basis. The payer can also set the foreign exchange rules from the commonly used exchange rate or request a capital inquiry. Although the payer continues to interact with the B2B portal 103, when the payment instruction is completed, it will be transmitted to the payment gateway 104 along with information identifying the payee and the transaction. The information with payment instructions (which will be encrypted and signed by the payee) will appropriately include the payee name, account number, invoice number, purchase order number, payment amount and currency, as provided by B2B portal 103.

Protocol processing. Each installation for financial institutions 308 and 309 preferably includes a payment service enhancement kit 322. This suite can provide easy use of electronic funds transfer payment services with minimal development needs, and can also make payment financial institutions 308 and collection financial institutions 309 go online in the shortest time. The payment service enhancement kit 322 is integrated with the existing back-end system 323 of the financial institution system to appropriately provide a complete solution for payer verification, message transmission, and enhanced service operations. The present invention hopes that financial institutions will be responsible for establishing their own consumers on the payment gateway 301 to provide electronic funds transfer services. A party's profile is created for each party by using the management sub-module 318 to store party information and obtain a unique party ID. In this embodiment, the existing party account and credit card account are then mapped to the party ID. The payment gateway also generates a user management ID to allow the parties to perform user management. The security server 315 then creates a signature matrix for each account, and the digital signatures of the signers whose parties have been approved are mapped to specific accounts. Typically, a ‘financial institution’ sends an electronic funds transfer service suite with all relevant components to each party. Sequentially, the payment gateway 301 must be set up by the parties when they receive the kit from the party's financial institution. Individual user data is generated for payers who have access to the payment gateway 301. Individual users are best assigned to groups of users that align with their functional responsibilities within the payer's business organization.

The invention description (w) must pass the appropriate trusted certification Agency 302 initiates their digital signature. One is that the parties to a business entity may establish a hierarchical signatory for the initiation of a transaction, preferably on a matrix basis. Each signature confirmation matrix will be assigned to a specific account. In general, a business party will have three signer groups, and on average, two signatures will be required. Consider a hypothetical account that can be operated by the signers of three user groups A, B, and C, as described in Table 1 below: Account group ABC itself 10 20 30 A 40 50 60 B 70 80- ----- 1 C 90 Table 1 · Signature matrix An individual from the user group A of the account can sign up to 10 times by himself. If he is with another member of the group A who is assigned to the same account, he can go to 40. If you are a member of group C assigned to the account, you can go to 60 ... and so on, as described in the table above. Electronic transaction signatures do not need to be attached to the company and accounts controlled by financial institutions. Individual configurations can also be defined in an Electronic Commerce (EB) agreement agreed by the company's management committee. Looking at the client side of the electronic fund transfer system 300, a business entry function is provided through a web page 311 embedded in the business center 3004. The function of the entrance includes making it easy for the payee to set up the invoice and the payer to pay. 24 ^ Paper size UiT National Standard (CNS) A4 Specification (210 X 297 ϋΤ -------------- ------ Order ---------- line (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 513680 A7 B7_ V. Description of the invention (θ The client's computer system 303 uses a traditional web browser 324 (such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator) to access the B2B hub 304 via the Internet 305. The client's browser preferably includes a smart card insertion component 325, Because the present invention hopes that the authentication and private keys issued by the trusted authentication party 102 to confirm the signatory are stored on a smart card. When in a globally distributed environment, using the Internet, and connecting with external parties ( Including financial networks (such as VISANET; business hubs and financial institutions, such as banks) when operating under the main application, the security considerations for the operation of the electronic funds transfer system 300 are best to ... Confidentiality, • Confirm the identity of all parties involved in the transaction, and • Ensure the integrity of the data during transmission. In this embodiment, confirm the identity of the payee in the payment system and verify the payer ’s identity to the payee. Identity is the responsibility of the B2B hub. The B2B hub recognizes that the payer can securely conduct e-commerce with that retailer. The retailer registration process eliminates the need to confirm the identity of the retailer. Registration with the electronic funds transfer system ensures that the retailer It is associated with financial institutions so that they can receive electronic payments. When the B2B Hub web application 312 starts the payment service, the payer ID, payee ID, invoice information and digital signature of the B2B hub will be passed to Payment gateway 301. The B2B application uses the private key of the B2B hub to sign this data, and then encrypts it through a virtual private network (VPN) tunnel. This ensures the confidentiality and integrity of the data during transmission.

Description of the invention (w) The encryption of the private key of the B2B hub also ensures the non-repudiation of the data during transmission. Payment gateway The system decrypts the information and uses additional digital certificates issued by a trusted certification authority to confirm the identity of the B2B hub. When the payer completes and sends the payment instruction, the details of the payment instruction and the SHA1 clutter will use the payer's private money Key encryption. The payer's digital authentication and the payer's private key are stored in a smart card held by the payer. This ensures the non-repudiation of payment instructions and the integrity of the information. Encrypted packets are transmitted to the payment gateway 301 via the Internet 305 using SSL to ensure confidentiality. The security server 315 in the payment gateway decrypts the data. The security server 315 will use a suitable verification authority to verify the identity of the payer. The certification authority may be a payment financial institution 308, a payment gateway 301, or a trusted certification authority (CA) 302. Therefore, the electronic funds transfer system 300 ensures the confidentiality and integrity of the payment information of each and every process transmitted through each data transmission of the payment system. Each piece of information can only be accessed by the necessary parties. For example, the payer's account information will only be known by the payment gateway, the payer's financial institution, and the payee's financial institution, but not by the payee or B2B hub. The electronic funds transfer system 300 can implement various protection mechanisms now available that are compatible with the communications industry standards.

Only when required, a 128-bit encrypted SSL (Secure Socket Layer) connection is used to maintain the confidentiality of information transmission. Unless necessary, there is no need to encrypt the directory to increase the load. User 401 must use their own digital signature to sign orders and invoices. User connection 2 to the payment gateway includes the transmission of payment instructions containing financial information. The identity of the transaction hub will be verified by using a digitally authenticated payment gateway. User 401 will have to digitally sign the payment instructions using a digital signature mechanism that may be certified by a trusted certification authority (CA) 406. Java applets are used to sign the data that will be passed. SSL ν · 3 secures the encrypted data transmitted to the payment gateway 403. The connection from the parent hub to the payment gateway 3 contains communication between payment notification and payment consent. The hub 402 and the payment gateway 403 exchange digital authentication in the data message for identity verification. Secure communications between the parties use point-to-point encryption or virtual private networks (VPNs), with clutter functions if needed. The link 4 of the payment gateway to the payment gateway includes a payment instruction containing financial information. At 403 and 404, communications between the parties are encrypted using a point-to-point link on the leased line. 27 This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm)-^ ----------------- line (please read the precautions on the back before filling (This page) 513680 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (η) The connection between the payment gateway and the financial institution 5 includes payment instructions containing financial information. Secure communication between the parties uses point-to-point encryption or virtual private networks (VPNs), along with clutter functions. The payment gateway to the trusted CA link 6 contains the public key retrieved for decryption. There is no security risk in this link, because the public money is public information. Link 7 of the payment gateway to VISANET includes data containing VISA Base I and 11 messages. Confirm that the gateway will have Station IDs issued by VISA to confirm identity. The secure communication with viSANET 407 is via the Visa Access Point (VAP) interface. To further understand the present invention, the essential diagram of the electronic funds transfer system of the second embodiment of the present invention is drawn in Figs. 5A and 5B. System 500 provides a highly reliable and predictable service for mission-critical business-to-business payments. It can withstand high-capacity online real-time transactions on the basis of 24x7x365 continuous operation all year round. The system of the second embodiment has an estimated daily transaction processing capacity of approximately 1.8 million. The page click rate is about 300,000 times a day. If the electronic funds transfer business is expected to have high capacity and the dynamic growth of Internet-related operations, the main payment agent application components will use the first server farm (Server Farm) 510 to run, for example, 14 with 4 The Sun Enterprise 4500 server with CPU has a storage capacity of 30TB each. The server farms 501 will be connected to each other by a high-speed switching hub with a high-bandwidth backplane, and communicate with the database 502 and the GSM-SMS / email / fax channel through a closed loop 504. 28 This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 public love) -------- ^ ---------- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this (Page 7) A7 B7 5. Description of the invention (d) Similarly, the server farm 510 of the second network server, such as the Sun Enterprise 450 server, can handle the Internet's carrying capacity requirements, together with a wireless application protocol ( WAP) server 5 u, which can be connected to the Internet through a pair of firewall servers 512 and a pair of high-performance routers 513 (such as those manufactured by Cisco). Also included in this figure is an email server 514, a virtual private network (VPN) server 515, an authentication and authorization server 516 (for financial institutions), and a key management server 517. The web server farm 510 is connected to the payment agent server farm 501 through a further pair of firewall servers 508. The financial institution host system 520 can use the service enhancement suite system 521 through a VPN gateway server and the Internet (See FIG. 5A), or if necessary, directly to the closed loop 504 (see FIG. 5B) and connected to the electronic funds transfer system 500. To ensure that the system has the capacity to adjust its size as the capacity grows, two strategies are necessary. The first is to adopt an operating platform that can be upgraded to higher throughput and higher storage capacity, and the second is to provide a server farm plan with corresponding application software architecture, application software functions, and database partition design. support. Application software architecture and application software functional design will support access to different partitioned databases on different servers to perform good load balancing and coordination. The database will be divided by groups of payment financial institutions.

Description of the Invention (V)) Interconnected capacity Components, including processor components, I / O components, network components, and storage components. The complexity of the entire system capacity model requires capacity planning and simulation tools to be used. A highly automated system management and monitoring application software is best used to ensure efficient, reliable and continuous system operation to meet the high capacity and mission-critical requirements of the system during operation. The large number of processors and other system components used by the system 500 indicates that automated system management and monitoring is important. Part of the light out operation will be the goal. Given the geographical distribution, cross-border monitoring and management to review global payment services is required, but requires tightly integrated operations. A set of multi-system management and monitoring tools, such as Tivoli, may be used as the backbone and center console for integrated systems. A set of communication management tools, such as HP Openview provided by HP, will be the central control and monitoring tool for the network components of the system of this embodiment.
