Transaction identification by comparison of merchant transaction data and context data
Transaction identification is described. A payment processing platform can receive (i) transaction data associated with a transaction between a merchant and a customer and (ii) a transaction code from a payment making platform. The payment processing platform can receive an indication of an interaction between a computing device of the customer and the transaction code, wherein the indication is associated with context data associated with the interaction. Based at least partly on comparing the transaction data with the context data, determining that the customer is associated with the transaction and causing an association between the customer and the transaction, wherein the association causes at least a portion of the transaction data to be provided to a mobile payment application, associated with the payment making platform, on the computing device of the customer.
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving, by one or more computing devices of a service provider, data comprising (1) an indication of an interaction between a computing device of a customer and a transaction code and (2) first context data associated with the interaction, wherein the transaction code comprises a deep link to a payment application;
determining, by the one or more computing devices of the service provider and based at least in part on the first context data and second context data associated with a transaction with a merchant, that the customer is associated with the transaction with the merchant; and
causing, by the one or more computing devices of the service provider, an association between the customer and the transaction, wherein the association causes transaction data associated with the transaction to be provided to the payment application on the computing device of the customer.
2. The computer-implemented method as claim 1 recites, wherein, at a time of the interaction, the transaction code is presented via a user interface of a point-of-sale application on a computing device of the merchant.
3. The computer-implemented method as claim 2 recites, wherein the user interface comprises at least one of a cart building user interface or a payment type selection user interface.
4. The computer-implemented method as claim 1 recites, wherein the second context data is received from a point-of-sale application executing on a computing device of the merchant, and wherein determining that the customer is associated with the transaction based at least in part on the first context data and the second context data comprises determining a correspondence between the first context data and the second context data.
5. The computer-implemented method as claim 4 recites, wherein:
the first context data includes a first timestamp;
the second context data includes a second timestamp; and
determining the correspondence comprises correlating the first timestamp and the second timestamp.
6. The computer-implemented method as claim 4 recites, wherein:
the first context data includes a first location,
the second context data includes a second location, and
determining the correspondence comprises correlating the first location and the second location.
7. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more computer-readable media comprising instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from one or more computing devices, data comprising (1) an indication of an interaction between a computing device of a customer and a transaction code and (2) first context data associated with the interaction, wherein the transaction code comprises a deep link to a payment application;
determining, based at least in part on the first context data and second context data associated with a transaction with a merchant, that the customer is associated with the transaction with the merchant; and
causing an association between the customer and the transaction, wherein the association causes transaction data associated with the transaction to be provided to the payment application on the computing device of the customer.
8. The system as claim 7 recites, wherein, at a time of the interaction, the transaction code is presented via a cart building user interface of a point-of-sale application on a computing device of the merchant, the cart building user interface being usable for adding one or more items to a virtual cart.
9. The system as claim 7 recites, wherein the association further causes a movement of funds from an account of the customer to an account of the merchant to process payment for the transaction.
10. The system as claim 7 recites, wherein the association further causes information associated with the transaction to be presented via a cart building user interface of the payment application.
11. The system as claim 10 recites, wherein the information indicates at least one of:
the merchant;
one or more items associated with the transaction;
a total cost of the transaction; or
an incentive associated with at least one of the merchant or the one or more items.
12. The system as claim 7 recites, wherein the second context data is received from a point-of-sale application on a computing device of the merchant, and wherein determining that the customer is associated with the transaction based at least in part on the first context data and the second context data comprises determining a correspondence between the first context data and the second context.
13. The system as claim 12 recites, wherein:
the first context data includes a first transaction identifier;
the second context data includes a second transaction identifier; and
determining the correspondence comprises correlating the first transaction identifier and the second transaction identifier.
14. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving, by one or more computing devices of a service provider, first context data associated with an interaction between a computing device of a customer and a transaction code, wherein the transaction code comprise a deep link to a payment application;
determining, by the one or more computing devices of the service provider and based at least in part on the first context data and second context data associated with a transaction with a merchant, that the customer is associated with the transaction with the merchant; and
causing, by the one or more computing devices of the service provider, an association between the customer and the transaction, wherein the association causes transaction data associated with the transaction to be provided to the payment application on a computing device of the customer.
15. The computer-implemented method as claim 14 recites, wherein:
the first context data is received in association with an indication of the interaction; and
the indication indicates that the customer captured the transaction code using a sensor of the computing device of the customer.
16. The computer-implemented method as claim 14 recites, wherein:
the first context data is received in association with an indication of the interaction; and
the indication indicates that the customer interacted with the transaction code via a user interface.
17. The computer-implemented method as claim 14 recites, wherein the second context data is received from a point-of-sale application executing on a computing device of the merchant, and wherein determining that the customer is associated with the transaction based at least in part on the first context data and the second context data comprises determining a correspondence between the first context data and the second context data.
18. The computer-implemented method as claim 14 recites, wherein the association further causes information associated with the transaction to be presented via a cart building user interface of the payment application.
19. The computer-implemented method as claim 14 recites, wherein the association further causes a movement of funds from an account of the customer to an account of the merchant to process payment for the transaction.
20. The computer-implemented method as claim 14 recites, wherein the second context data comprises at least a portion of the transaction data.
