Abstract

The disclosed embodiments provide systems and methods for transacting at a local financial service provider device using a mobile device. The system may include one or more processors configured to execute instructions to receive transaction data associated with a transaction request including a customer identifier received from a mobile device associated with the customer. Additionally, the processors may receive authentication data associated with the customer that may be provided by the customer operating the mobile device and without requiring the customer to input data directly at the local financial service provider device. The processors may further determine whether the received authentication data authenticates the transaction, authorize the transaction, and provide an indication to the local financial service provider device to perform the transaction based on a determination that the customer operating the mobile device is physically located within a threshold distance away from the local financial service provider device.

6. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to transmit an identification signal as the short-range wireless signal to the ATM,

wherein receiving the data from the remote server comprises, in response to (i) the mobile device wirelessly transmitting the identification signal to the ATM and (ii) the mobile device being detected, based on the identification signal, as being within the first predetermined distance and farther than the second predetermined distance from the ATM, receiving, from the remote server, the data that causes the mobile device to display a prompt comprising multiple transaction initiation options on the user interface of the mobile device.

7. A computer-implemented method for authenticating mobile devices, the method comprising:

wirelessly transmitting, by a mobile device, a short-range wireless signal to an automated teller machine (ATM), the mobile device being detected, based on the short-range wireless signal, as being within a first predetermined distance of and farther than a second predetermined distance from the ATM;

in response to (i) the mobile device wirelessly transmitting the short-range wireless signal to the ATM and (ii) the mobile device being detected, based on the first short-range wireless signal, as being within the first predetermined distance of and farther than the second predetermined distance from the ATM, receiving, by the mobile device, from a remote system, data that causes the mobile device to display a prompt comprising multiple transaction initiation options on a user interface of the mobile device;

determining a selection of a first option via the user interface to initiate a transaction with the ATM and, in response to the selection, transmitting, from a transaction request for the transaction from the mobile device to the remote system;

receiving, at the mobile device from the remote system, an authentication request comprising authentication requirements that include an authentication tier;

wirelessly transmitting, by the mobile device, another short-range wirelessly signal to the ATM after the transmission of the short-range wireless signal, the mobile device being detected, based on the other short-range wireless signal, as being within the first and second predetermined distances of the ATM;

in response to (i) the mobile device wirelessly transmitting the other short-range wireless signal to the ATM and (ii) the mobile device being detected, based on the other short-range wireless signal, as being within the first and second predetermined distances of the ATM, transmitting, from the mobile device to the remote system, authentication data for completing the transaction with the ATM, wherein transmitting the authentication data to the remote system comprises:

determining one or more authentication options associated with authenticating capabilities of the mobile device;

selecting an authentication option of the one or more authentication options, wherein the authentication option conforms to the authentication requirements;

generating a prompt for user input based on the selected authentication option;

generating the authentication data based on the user input; and

transmitting the generated authentication data to the remote system; and

in response to transmitting the authentication data, receiving, at the mobile device, an authentication confirmation.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , further comprising:
