Abstract

Methods and systems of processing a plurality of payments. One method can include receiving the plurality of payments from a plurality of customers, the plurality of payments payable to at least one receiver, determining a first set of payments included in the plurality of payments to automatically accept based on validation parameters, determining a second set of payments included in the plurality of payments to reject based on the validation parameters, determining a third set of payments included in the plurality of payments to conditionally accept based on the validation parameters, and electronically prompting at least one user to accept or reject payments included in the third set of payments.

Claims (19)

1. A method for managing payments, the method comprising:

receiving a plurality of payments from a plurality of senders, each of the plurality of payments made by one of the plurality of senders to a receiver;

generating, at a processor, a user interface on a display;

receiving through the user interface a plurality of validation parameters from the receiver of the payments;

receiving through the user interface an automatic action and a predetermined wait period from the receiver;

determining, at the processor, how to process each of the plurality of payments based on the validation parameters, wherein processing each of the plurality of payments includes one of (1) automatically accepting a payment, (2) automatically rejecting a payment, and (3) conditionally accepting a payment and holding the payment for manual review;

displaying in the user interface a plurality of conditionally accepted payments included in the plurality of payments made to the receiver and being held for manual review by the receiver of the plurality of payments, the plurality of conditionally accepted payments including at least a first payment and a second payment;

receiving through the user interface an indication from the receiver of the plurality of payments to accept or reject the first payment;

if the indication is to accept the first payment, receiving through the user interface an account selection for the first payment from the receiver of the plurality of payments and directing, at the processor, processing of the first payment based on the account selection; and

automatically, at the processor processing the second payment based on the automatic action when the receiver fails to provide an indication of whether to accept to reject the second payment through the user interface within the predetermined wait period.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising processing a plurality of automatically accepted payments included in the plurality of payments to deposit at least one of the plurality of automatically accepted payments based on the account selection.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising processing a plurality of automatically rejected payments included in the plurality of payments to reject the plurality of automatically rejected payments.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving the account selection includes receiving a selection of an account associated with a third-party receiver.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the account selection as part of the plurality of validation parameters.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving through the user interface a plurality of transaction status search parameters to access the plurality of payments made to the receiver; and

displaying, in the user interface, at least one of the plurality of payments to the receiver based on the transaction status search parameters.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the automatic action includes automatically accepting the second payment when the receiver fails to provide an indication of whether to accept to reject the second payment through the user interface within the predetermined wait period.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the automatic action includes automatically rejecting the second payment when the receiver fails to provide an indication of whether to accept to reject the second payment through the user interface within the predetermined wait period.
