System and method for token based mobile payment

1. A token-based mobile payment device comprising:

a memory component that stores tokens and corresponding token use data;

an interactive display that receives user input and in response to the user input, displays output data;

a processor, coupled to the memory component and the interactive display, configured to perform the steps of:

requesting an indirect sharing of money in the form of a token to be transmitted to one or more non-merchant recipients for use with a merchant to purchase goods or services;

identifying an amount for the token and a plurality of restrictions on use of the token, the restrictions comprising a time until token expiration and at least one of a limitation on how and where the token may be used;

providing, via a wireless communication network, the token to the one or more non-merchant recipients for use by the non-merchant recipient consistent with the one or more restrictions;

tracking the token and providing active token use data, via the interactive display;

providing, via the interactive display, a request for a modification to the token;

receiving, via the interactive display, an approval of the request for a modification to the token; and

wherein the processor executes a machine learning algorithm that automatically modifies the token based on historical data associated with the one or more recipients and token use history.

2. The token-based mobile payment device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of restrictions on use of the token comprise a geographic boundary.

3. The token-based mobile payment device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of restrictions on use of the token comprise a specific category of use, selected by an issuer of the token.

4. The token-based mobile payment device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of restrictions comprise any transactions are limited to in-person transactions.

5. The token-based mobile payment device of claim 1 , wherein the processor receives a request to modify the amount of the token.

6. The token-based mobile payment device of claim 1 , wherein the token is a temporary token.

7. The token-based mobile payment device of claim 1 , wherein loyalty points earned by the token are credited to an issuer of the token.

8. The token-based mobile payment device of claim 1 , wherein the token is modified automatically based on a detected fraud condition.

9. The token-based mobile payment device of claim 1 , wherein the token is associated with an additional authentication feature that requires a biometric input from the one or more recipients.

10. A computer implemented method for implementing a token-based mobile payment device comprising the steps of:

storing, via memory component, tokens and corresponding token use data;

receiving, via an interactive display, user input and in response to the user input, the interactive display provides output data;

requesting, via a processor, an indirect sharing of money in the form of a token to be transmitted to one or more non-merchant recipients for use with a merchant to purchase goods or services;

identifying, via the processor, an amount for the token and a plurality of restrictions on use of the token, the restrictions comprising a time until token expiration and at least one of a limitation on how and where the token may be used;

providing, via a wireless communication network, the token to the one or more non-merchant recipients for use by the non-merchant recipient consistent with the one or more restrictions; and

tracking, via the processor, the token and providing active token use data, via the interactive display;

providing, via the interactive display, a request for a modification to the token;

receiving, via the interactive display, an approval of the request for a modification to the token; and

executing, via the processor, a machine learning algorithm that automatically modifies the token based on historical data associated with the one or more recipients and token use history.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of restrictions on use of the token comprise a geographic boundary.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of restrictions on use of the token comprise a specific category of use, selected by an issuer of the token.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of restrictions comprise any transactions are limited to in-person transactions.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the processor receives a request to modify the amount of the token.

15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the token is a temporary token.

16. The method of claim 10 , wherein loyalty points earned by the token are credited to an issuer of the token.

17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the token is modified automatically based on a detected fraud condition.

18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the token is associated with an additional authentication feature that requires a biometric input from the one or more recipients.
