Abstract

In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a device is configured to capture data using an image sensor, decode the data to identify a unique electronic token providing access to a database, process the unique electronic token, access the database and retrieve information associated with an account corresponding to the unique electronic token, generate an electronic user interface displaying the information, and in response to receiving, via the electronic user interface, login information associated with the account, provide access to the account.

Claims (53)

1 . A system comprising:

an image sensor;

non-transitory computer readable media storing instructions; and

one or more hardware processors coupled to the non-transitory computer readable media and configured to read the instructions from the non-transitory computer readable media to cause the system to perform operations comprising:

capture data using the image sensor;

decode the data to identify a unique electronic token providing access to a database;

access the database using the unique electronic token;

retrieve information associated with an account corresponding to the unique electronic token;

generate an electronic user interface displaying the information associated with the account and a request for login information associated with the account; and

access the account in response to receiving, via the electronic user interface, login information associated with the account.

2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the login information includes a biometric identifier.

3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the system to perform operations comprising:

store the retrieved information associated with the account in the non-transitory computer readable media.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the database is remote from the system and connected to the system over a network.

5 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the information associated with the account comprises an image of an invoice.

6 . The system of claim 5 , wherein the instructions further cause the system to perform operations comprising:

generate an actuatable permission button for display on the electronic user interface; and

reconcile the invoice in response to receiving an actuation of the actuatable permission button.

7 . The system of claim 6 wherein the instructions further cause the system to perform operations comprising:

store a merchant information in the non-transitory computer readable media after reconciling the invoice.

8 . Non-transitory machine readable media having stored thereon machine-readable instructions executable to cause a machine to perform operations comprising:

associate an account in a database associated with a unique electronic token;

generate a printable identifier code with the unique electronic token embedded in the identifier code;

receive a request to access the account based on the unique electronic token embedded in a printed identifier code;

request login information in response to receiving the request to access the account;

receive login information; and

provide information associated with the account in response to receiving the login information.

9 . The non-transitory machine readable media of claim 8 , wherein the login information includes a biometric identifier.

10 . The non-transitory machine readable media of claim 8 , wherein the information associated with the account comprises an image of an invoice.

11 . The non-transitory machine readable media of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

generate an actuatable permission button for display; and

reconcile the invoice in response to receiving an actuation of the actuatable permission button.

12 . The non-transitory machine readable media of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

provide merchant information associated with the invoice in response to receiving the actuation of the actuatable permission button.

12 . The non-transitory machine readable media of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

provide merchant information associated with the invoice in response to receiving the actuation of the actuatable permission button.

13 . The non-transitory machine readable media of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

sending an electronic message including an image of the identifier code to an address associated with the account.

14 . A computer implemented method, the method comprising operations of:

capturing data using with an image sensor;

decoding the data to identify a unique electronic token providing access to a database;

using the electronic token to access the database over a network;

retrieving information associated with an account corresponding to the unique electronic token;

displaying on a display an electronic user interface with the information associated with the account and a request for login information associated with the account; and

accessing the account in response to receiving from a user, via the electronic user interface, login information associated with the account

15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the login information includes a biometric identifier.

16 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising storing the retrieved information associated with the account in memory.

17 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the information associated with the account comprises an image of an invoice.

18 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

generating an actuatable permission button for display on the electronic user interface; and

reconciling the invoice in response to receiving an actuation of the actuatable permission button.

19 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising storing a merchant information in memory after reconciling the invoice.

20 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the captured data is a 2D barcode.
