System and method for tokenizing information from a digital wallet host by an acquirer processor
Systems and methods are provided for receiving an encrypted payment payload from a digital wallet host, transmitting a low value token to a merchant, receiving an authorization request, requesting authorization for the transaction from an issuer financial institution using financial data from the encrypted payment payload, receiving an authorization decision from the issuer financial institution, and transmitting an authorization response to the merchant.
1 . A method comprising:
receiving, by an acquirer processor from a digital wallet host, an encrypted payment payload including consumer financial data in response to a digital wallet based transaction initiated by a consumer at a merchant;
generating, by the acquirer processor, a low value token devoid of the consumer financial data in response to receiving the encrypted payment payload from the digital wallet host;
transmitting, by the acquirer processor to the merchant, the low value token, devoid of the consumer financial data, corresponding to the digital wallet based transaction initiated by the consumer at the merchant;
receiving, by the acquirer processor from the merchant, an authorization request for the digital wallet based transaction, the authorization request comprising the low value token;
in response to receiving the authorization request comprising the low value token, decrypting, by the acquirer processor, the encrypted payment payload including the consumer financial data;
transmitting, by the acquirer processor to a payment network, the authorization request and the payment payload decrypted by the acquirer processor;
receiving, by the acquirer processor from the payment network, an authorization response;
generating, by the acquirer processor, a high value token by converting the low value token, wherein the high value token is a randomized unique value that acts as a surrogate for the consumer financial data; and
transmitting, by the acquirer processor, the authorization response and the high value token to the merchant.
2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
generating, by the acquirer processor, a merchant-specific payment interface for the merchant; and
transmitting, by the acquirer processor, the merchant-specific payment interface to the merchant to be displayed to the consumer via a merchant web page or a merchant mobile application,
wherein the encrypted payment payload is received via the merchant-specific payment interface.
3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
requesting, by the acquirer processor, authorization for the digital wallet based transaction from an issuer financial institution using the consumer financial data from the encrypted payment payload; and
receiving, by the acquirer processor, an authorization decision for the digital wallet based transaction from the issuer financial institution.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the consumer financial data is isolated from the merchant.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein transmitting the low value token to the merchant comprises transmitting the low value token to the digital wallet host for transmission to the merchant.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the consumer financial data comprises login information to a digital wallet account.
7 . An acquirer processor computing system comprising:
a memory that stores instructions; and
one or more processors that execute the instructions to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a digital wallet host, an encrypted payment payload including consumer financial data in response to a digital wallet based transaction initiated by a consumer at a merchant;
generating a low value token devoid of the consumer financial data in response to receiving the encrypted payment payload from the digital wallet host;
transmitting, to the merchant, the low value token, devoid of the consumer financial data, corresponding to the digital wallet based transaction initiated by the consumer at the merchant;
receiving, from the merchant, an authorization request for the digital wallet based transaction, the authorization request comprising the low value token;
in response to receiving the authorization request comprising the low value token, decrypting, the encrypted payment payload including the consumer financial data;
transmitting, the authorization request and the payment payload decrypted by the acquirer processor to a payment network;
receiving, an authorization response from the payment network;
generating, a high value token by converting the low value token, wherein the high value token is a randomized unique value that acts as a surrogate for the consumer financial data; and
transmitting the authorization response and the high value token to the merchant.
8 . The acquirer processor computing system of claim 7 , wherein the operations further comprise:
generating a merchant-specific payment interface for the merchant; and
transmitting the merchant-specific payment interface to the merchant to be displayed to the consumer via a merchant web page or a merchant mobile application,
wherein the encrypted payment payload is received via the merchant-specific payment interface.
9 . The acquirer processor computing system of claim 7 , wherein the operations further comprise:
requesting authorization for the digital wallet based transaction from an issuer financial institution using the consumer financial data from the encrypted payment payload; and
receiving an authorization decision for the digital wallet based transaction from the issuer financial institution.
10 . The acquirer processor computing system of claim 7 , wherein the consumer financial data is isolated from the merchant.
11 . The acquirer processor computing system of claim 7 , wherein transmitting the low value token to the merchant comprises transmitting the low value token to the digital wallet host for transmission to the merchant.
12 . The acquirer processor computing system of claim 7 , wherein the consumer financial data comprises login information to a digital wallet account.
13 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of an acquirer processor computing system, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a digital wallet host, an encrypted payment payload including consumer financial data in response to a digital wallet based transaction initiated by a consumer at a merchant;
generating a low value token devoid of the consumer financial data in response to receiving the encrypted payment payload from the digital wallet host;
transmitting, to the merchant, the low value token, devoid of the consumer financial data, corresponding to the digital wallet based transaction initiated by the consumer at the merchant;
receiving, from the merchant, an authorization request for the digital wallet based transaction, the authorization request comprising the low value token;
in response to receiving the authorization request comprising the low value token, decrypting, by the acquirer processor, the encrypted payment payload including the consumer financial data;
transmitting, by the acquirer processor to a payment network, the authorization request and the payment payload decrypted by the acquirer processor;
receiving, by the acquirer processor from the payment network, an authorization response;
generating, by the acquirer processor, a high value token by converting the low value token, wherein the high value token is a randomized unique value that acts as a surrogate for the consumer financial data; and
transmitting, by the acquirer processor, the authorization response and the high value token to the merchant.
14 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the operations further comprise:
generating a merchant-specific payment interface for the merchant; and
transmitting the merchant-specific payment interface to the merchant to be displayed to the consumer via a merchant web page or a merchant mobile application,
wherein the encrypted payment payload is received via the merchant-specific payment interface.
15 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the operations further comprise:
requesting authorization for the digital wallet based transaction from an issuer financial institution using the consumer financial data from the encrypted payment payload; and
receiving an authorization decision for the digital wallet based transaction from the issuer financial institution.
16 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein transmitting the low value token to the merchant comprises transmitting the low value token to the digital wallet host for transmission to the merchant.
17 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the consumer financial data is isolated from the merchant.
