SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FACILITATING SECURE TRANSACTIONS
A system for secure transactions receives an authorization request from a mobile device, the mobile device having received the authorization request by scanning a QR code and/or other encoded data. The system processes the authorization request using one or more transaction accounts that are paired to the mobile device, and transmits a response indicating approval or denial of the authorization request.
1 . A method comprising:
providing, by a computer-based system for secure transactions, a quick response (QR) code, wherein the QR code encodes a merchant identifier;
receiving, by the computer-based system and from a payment processor, an authorization response to an authorization request, wherein the authorization request is transmitted to the payment processor by a mobile device that scans the QR code, and wherein the authorization response is based upon a transaction account that is paired to the mobile device and transmitted by the payment processor to the computer-based system based upon the merchant identifier.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the QR code comprises displaying the QR code.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the QR code comprises displaying the QR code via a merchant electronic commerce website.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the QR code comprises displaying the QR code with a tangible product.
5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing, by the computer-based system, data associated with a shopping cart to the mobile device.
6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the mobile device requests the data associated with the shopping cart via a uniform resource locator (URL) encoded in the QR code.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the merchant identifier is a uniform resource locator (URL).
8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying, by the computer-based system, the response to the authorization request.
9 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising prompting, by the computer-based system, a user to select a different transaction account based on a response to the authorization request denying the authorization request.
10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the computer-based system, a shipping address.
11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the QR code comprises displaying the QR code in association with a billing statement.
12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising receiving, by the computer-based system, automatic payments initiated by the mobile device.
13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the QR code comprises displaying the QR code in association with a travel itinerary.
14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the QR code encodes at least one of: a travel destination, an arrival date and time, and a departure date and time.
15 . The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the QR code comprises displaying the QR code in association with a taxicab.
16 . The method claim 15 , wherein the QR code encodes an identifier associated with a taxi driver.
17 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising receiving, by the computer-based system, a payment initiated by the mobile device.
18 . The method of claim 17 , further comprising transmitting, by the computer-based system, the authorization response to a mobile device associated with the taxi driver.
19 . An article of manufacture including a non-transitory, tangible computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a computer-based system for secure transactions, cause the computer-based system to perform operations comprising:
providing, by the computer-based system, a quick response (QR) code, wherein the QR code encodes a merchant identifier;
receiving, by the computer-based system and from a payment processor, an authorization response to an authorization request, wherein the authorization request is transmitted to the payment processor by a mobile device that scans the QR code, and wherein the authorization response is based upon a transaction account that is paired to the mobile device and transmitted by the payment processor to the computer-based system based upon the merchant identifier.
20 . A system comprising:
a tangible, non-transitory memory communicating with a processor for secure transactions,
the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
providing, by the processor, a quick response (QR) code, wherein the QR code encodes a merchant identifier;
receiving, by the processor and from a payment processor, an authorization response to an authorization request, wherein the authorization request is transmitted to the payment processor by a mobile device that scans the QR code, and wherein the authorization response is based upon a transaction account that is paired to the mobile device and transmitted by the payment processor to the computer-based system based upon the merchant identifier.
