Securing contactless payment

1. A method for securing contactless transactions, the method comprising:

receiving a wireless data communication from a contactless terminal, the received wireless data communication including a requested contactless transaction involving a user device, the wireless data communication received via contactless interface of the user device;

identifying a current GPS location of the user device via a global positioning system (GPS) at a time that the contactless transaction is requested by the wireless data communication; and

transmitting information regarding the requested contactless transaction and the identified current GPS location over a communication network to a network server, wherein the network server further identifies a merchant location associated with the requested contactless transaction , and conditions approval of the requested contactless transaction on the current GPS location of the user device matching the merchant location at the time that the contactless transaction is requested.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a request for a contactless transactions statement associated with an account of the user device, wherein the request is sent to the network server; and

generating a display of the requested contactless transactions statement on a screen of the user device based on a response sent from the network server, wherein the generated contactless transactions statement includes the requested contactless transaction among a plurality of contactless transactions.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the contactless transactions statement includes a map that illustrates the merchant location where the requested contactless transaction was made and one or more other locations where other contactless transactions were made.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the received request specifies a time period, and wherein the display further comprising identifying that other contactless transactions fall into the specified time period.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing one or more rules for contactless transactions in memory, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on compliance with the stored rules.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the rules specifies a location where contactless transactions are not allowed, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on identifying that the current GPS location is not at the specified location.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the rules specifies an amount above which contactless transactions are not allowed, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on identifying that an amount of the requested contactless transaction does not exceed the specified amount.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the at least one rule further specifies a time period, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on identifying that a total amount of contactless transactions made within the specified time period does not exceed the specified amount.

9. The method of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the rules specifies a set of devices that are allowed to make contactless transactions, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on identifying that the user device is part of the specified set.

10. A device for securing contactless transactions, the device comprising:

a contactless interface comprising a radio frequency antenna that receives a wireless data communication from a contactless terminal, the received wireless data communication including a requested contactless transaction ;

a global positioning system (GPS) coupled to the contactless interface, wherein the GPS identifies a current GPS location at a time that the contactless transaction is requested by the wireless data communication; and

a communication interface coupled to the contactless interface and the GPS, wherein the communication interface transmits information regarding the requested contactless transaction and the identified current GPS location over a communication network to a network server, wherein the network server further identifies a merchant location associated with the requested contactless transaction , and conditions approval of the requested contactless transaction on the current GPS location matching the merchant location at the time that the contactless transaction is requested.

11. The device of claim 10 , further comprising a user device that:

receives a request for a contactless transactions statement associated with an account of the user device, wherein the request for the contactless transactions statement is sent to the network server, and

displays the requested contactless transactions statement on a screen of the user device based on a response sent from the network server, wherein the displayed contactless transactions statement includes the requested contactless transaction among a plurality of contactless transactions.

12. The device of claim 11 , wherein the contactless transactions statement includes a map that illustrates the merchant location where the requested contactless transaction was made and one or more other locations where other contactless transactions were made.

13. The device of claim 11 , wherein the received request specifies a time period, and further comprising identifying that other contactless transactions fall into the specified time period.

14. The device of claim 10 , further comprising memory that stores one or more rules for contactless transactions, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on compliance with the stored rules.

15. The device of claim 14 , wherein at least one of the rules specifies a location where contactless transactions are not allowed, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on identifying that the current GPS location is not at the specified location.

16. The device of claim 14 , wherein at least one of the rules specifies an amount above which contactless transactions are not allowed, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on identifying that an amount of the requested contactless transaction does not exceed the specified amount.

17. The device of claim 16 , wherein the at least one rule further specifies a time period, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on identifying that a total amount of contactless transactions made within the specified time period does not exceed the specified amount.

18. The device of claim 14 , wherein at least one of the rules specifies a set of devices that are allowed to make contactless transactions, and wherein approval of the requested contactless transaction is further based on identifying that the device is part of the specified set.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, having embodied thereon a program executable by a processor to perform a method for securing contactless transactions, the method comprising:

receiving a wireless data communication from a contactless terminal, the received wireless data communication including a requested contactless transaction involving a user device, the wireless data communication received via an contactless interface of the user device;

identifying a current GPS location of the user device via a global positioning system (GPS) at a time that the contactless transaction is requested by the wireless data communication; and

transmitting information regarding the requested contactless transaction and the identified current GPS location over a communication network to a network server, wherein the network server further identifies a merchant location associated with the requested contactless transaction, and conditions approval of the requested contactless transaction on the current GPS location of the user device matching the merchant location at the time that the contactless transaction is requested.
