SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PAYMENT PROCESSING ON PLATFORMS
Systems and methods for payment processing on devices are provided. Such systems and methods enable payment processing to be completed with a peripheral device (such as a magnetic card reader) and a point of sales system, without the need for extensive developer integration. The system receives a payment charge amount from a point of sales system. The system also detects (or dynamically populates) peripheral devices that are used to capture account information. The peripheral device is a supported device type with an associated library, which includes data for properly interfacing with the peripheral device. The system provides the captured account data, a merchant ID and the amount of the charge to a payment management system. The system likewise receives a response (approve or decline) from the payment management system.

receiving, at the payment processing interface, a selection of an electronic transaction type to facilitate payment for the electronic transaction amount;
detecting, via the payment processing interface, connection of a peripheral device to the mobile device, wherein the peripheral device is configured to interface with a payment vehicle associated with the selected electronic transaction type to collect transaction information;
querying, in response to determining that a library entry comprising data utilized by the payment processing interface to interface with the peripheral device is not present, a payment management system for the library entry;
receiving, in response to the querying and from the payment management system, an update containing the library entry; and
interfacing, by the payment processing interface system and using the update containing the library entry, with the peripheral device in accordance with the selected electronic transaction type.
