Abstract

A method of performing a fund transfer at an ATM includes receiving an active authentication transaction key at an ATM from a mobile financial transaction instrument via a wireless communication protocol, generating a PIN at the ATM, and storing the PIN in a machine readable storage medium. An authorization request message is transmitted to a financial institution identified by the active authentication transaction key. The authorization request message includes the PIN and at least a portion of the active authentication transaction key. The PIN is received from a user of the mobile financial transaction instrument, and the funds are dispensed in response to receiving the PIN.

Claims (54)

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by one or more processors associated with a financial institution, a funds transfer request from a transferor device;

generating, by the one or more processors, a first code and a limited-use active authentication transaction key;

transmitting, by the one or more processors, a message comprising the first code to a transferee device;

receiving, by the one or more processors, a second code from the transferee device;

responsive to validating the second code, transmitting, by the one or more processors, the limited-use active authentication transaction key to the transferee device;

receiving, by the one or more processors, an authorization request for a funds transfer from a kiosk, the authorization request comprising a received limited-use active authentication transaction key from the transferee device; and

responsive to a portion of the received limited-use active authentication transaction key matching a portion of the limited-use active authentication transaction key, transmitting, by the one or more processors an authorization message to the kiosk authorizing dispersal of funds.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the limited-use active authentication transaction key and the received limited-use active authentication transaction key lack static identifiers.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the kiosk receives the received limited-use active authentication transaction key from the transferee device via a wireless transmission.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second code is received by the one or more processors via an encrypted communication channel.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the kiosk transmits a request to receive contact information from a registry, and the registry transmits the requested contact information to the kiosk based on at least a portion of the received limited-use active authentication transaction key.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising authenticating, by the one or more processors, the transferor device.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transferring, by the one or more processors and responsive to receiving confirmation of the funds transfer request from the transferor device, funds associated with the funds transfer request into a wash account from an account associated with the transferor; and

dispensing, by the one or more processors, the funds from the wash account responsive to validating the second code.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating, by the kiosk, the fourth code; and

transmitting, by the kiosk, the fourth code to the one or more processors.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the funds transfer request further comprises a time period during which the funds transfer is authorized, the method further comprising:

storing, in the non-transitory memory device, the time period of the funds transfer request;

validating, by the one or more financial institution processors, that the authorization request from the kiosk was received during the stored time period; and

responsive to the authorization request from the kiosk being received outside of the stored time period, transmitting, by the one or more processors, a message declining the authorization request to the kiosk.

10. A system comprising:

one or more processors;

a kiosk in communication with the one or more processors;

a first memory in communication with the one or more processors and storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, are configured to cause the system to:

receive, a funds transfer request from a first device associated with a transferor account;

generate a first code and a first limited-use active authentication transaction key;

transmit a message comprising the first code to a second device;

receive a second code from the second device;

responsive to validating the second code based on the first code, transmit the first limited-use active authentication transaction key to the second device; and

a second memory and storing instructions that, when executed, are configured to cause the kiosk to:

receive a portion of a second limited-use active authentication key from the second device;

transmit an authorization request for a funds transfer to the one or more processors, the authorization request comprising the portion of a second limited-use active authentication transaction key; and

responsive to the portion of the second limited-use active authentication transaction key matching a portion of the first limited-use active authentication transaction key, receive, an authorization message authorizing dispersal of funds.

11. The system of claim 10 , further comprising an active authentication registry, wherein the active authentication registry is configured to provide the kiosk contact information for the one or more processors.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first limited-use active authentication transaction key and the second limited-use active authentication transaction key lack static identifiers.

13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the portion of the second limited-use active authentication key received by the kiosk is received via a wireless transmission.

14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first memory stores further instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, are configured to cause the one or more processors to receive the second code via an encrypted communication channel.

15. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

a memory in communication with the one or more processors and storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, are configured to cause the one or more processors to:

receive, from a transferee device, an active authentication key;

generate a first code responsive to receiving the active authentication key;

transmit the first code and the active authentication key to the one or more external processors to request authorization for a disbursement of funds;

receive authorization for the disbursement of funds from the one or more external processors based on the active authentication key;

receive a second code from the transferee device; and

authorize dispersal of funds upon verification of the second code.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein transmitting the first code and active authentication key to one or more external processors further comprises using an active authentication registry, the active authentication registry configured to be queried using several characters of the active authentication key to determine contact information.

17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the second code is received from the transferee device via near field communication (NFC) or Bluetooth.

18. The system of claim 15 , wherein responsive to the second code not matching the first code, the one or more processors decline the dispersal of funds.

19. The system of claim 17 , wherein the first code and the second code comprise alpha numeric codes.

20. The system of claim 18 , wherein the memory stores further instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, are configured to cause the one or more processors to transmit a message to one or more external processors identifying that the dispersal of funds has been declined.
