Abstract

A request to separate a transfer into a plurality of parts may be received, the request defining a total amount and a total time period. A plurality of request for transfer links may be prepared. Each of the links may be associated with a different transfer time period, each transfer time period being less than or equal to the total time period. Each of the links may be associated with a separate transfer part amount, and a summation of the separate transfer part amounts may be equal to the total amount. A plurality of request for transfer links may be provided to a transferor device, each link allowing a transfer to fulfill the separate transfer part amount to be performed without requiring input of the separate transfer part amount or recipient information.

Claims (43)

1. A computing system comprising:

a communications module;

a processor coupled to the communications module; and

a memory coupled to the processor storing instructions that, when executed by the computing system, cause the computing system to:

send a document to a transferor device, the document including a selectable option to request separation of a transfer into a plurality of transfer time periods;

receive a request to separate the transfer into the plurality of transfer time periods, the request defining a total amount and a total time period, and wherein the transfer is associated with the document;

prepare a plurality of request for transfer links, each of the links associated with a different transfer time period, wherein each transfer time period is less than or equal to the total time period, each of the links associated with a separate transfer part amount, wherein a summation of the separate transfer part amounts is equal to the total amount;

provide the plurality of request for transfer links displayed on an interface to the transferor device, each link allowing a transfer to fulfill the separate transfer part amount to be performed without requiring input of the separate transfer part amount or recipient information; and

receive, from the transferor device, at least one transfer associated with one of the plurality of request for transfer links;

associate the at least one transfer with the document; and

in response to receiving all the transfers associated with the plurality of request for transfer links, reconcile the transfers with the document.

2. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein the separate transfer part amounts are equal.

3. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein each of the request for transfer links is only valid during the transfer time period associated with the request for transfer link.

4. The computing system of claim 3 , wherein the total time period is determined based on a final transfer due date included in the request.

5. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of request for transfer links are provided to the transferor device at once.

6. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of request for transfer links are provided to the transferor device at scheduled times.

7. The computing system of claim 6 , wherein each of the plurality of request for transfer links are sent to the transferor device at or near an end of the different transfer time period associated with the request for transfer link.

8. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein the request to transfer is a request to transfer value from a transferor account to a recipient account.

9. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein the selectable option includes an option to define the total time period.

10. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein prior to preparing a plurality of request for transfer links, the instructions, when executed by the computing system, further cause the computing system to:

validate the request to separate the transfer into the plurality of transfer time periods.

11. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

sending a document to a transferor device, the document including a selectable option to request separation of a transfer into a plurality of transfer time periods;

receiving a request to separate the transfer into the plurality of transfer time periods, the request defining a total amount and a total time period, and wherein the transfer is associated with the document;

preparing a plurality of request for transfer links, each of the links associated with a different transfer time period, wherein each transfer time period is less than or equal to the total time period, each of the links associated with a separate transfer part amount, wherein a summation of the separate transfer part amounts is equal to the total amount;

providing the plurality of request for transfer links displayed on an interface to the transferor device, each link allowing a transfer to fulfill the separate transfer part amount to be performed without requiring input of the separate transfer part amount or recipient information;

receiving, from the transferor device, at least one transfer associated with one of the plurality of request for transfer links;

associating the at least one transfer with the document; and

in responding to receiving all the transfers associated with the plurality of request for transfer links, reconcile the transfers with the document.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the separate transfer part amounts are equal.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein each of the request for transfer links is only valid during the transfer time period associated with the request for transfer link.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 , wherein the total time period is determined based on a final transfer due date included in the request.

15. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of request for transfer links are provided to the transferor device at once.

16. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of request for transfer links are provided to the transferor device at scheduled times.

17. The computer-implemented method of claim 16 , wherein each of the plurality of request for transfer links are sent to the transferor device at or near an end of the different transfer time period associated with the request for transfer link.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that when executed by a processor of a computing system cause the computing system to:

send a document to a transferor device, the document including a selectable option to request separation of a transfer into a plurality of transfer time periods;

receive a request to separate the transfer into the plurality of transfer time periods, the request defining a total amount and a total time period and wherein the transfer is associated with the document;

prepare a plurality of request for transfer links, each of the links associated with a different transfer time period, wherein each transfer time period is less than or equal to the total time period, each of the links associated with a separate transfer part amount, wherein a summation of the separate transfer part amounts is equal to the total amount;

provide the plurality of request for transfer links displayed on an interface to the transferor device, each link allowing a transfer to fulfill the separate transfer part amount to be performed without requiring input of the separate transfer part amount or recipient information;

receive, from the transferor device, at least one transfer associated with one of the plurality of request for transfer links;

associate the at least one transfer with the document; and

in response to receiving all the transfers associated with the plurality of request for transfer links, reconcile the transfers with the document.
