5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein how the personalized visual code should move comprises at least one of blinking, rotating, traversing, flashing, or increasing/decreasing in size.
6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the personalized visual code is a quick response (QR) code, and wherein the information unique to the user is encoded in the QR code.
7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the information unique to the user is integrated with the personalized visual code as text or an image recognizable to the user.
8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the information unique to the user is encoded in the personalized visual code, the information unique to the user comprising at least one of an account number, a state identification number, a birth date, a physical address, a phone number, or a social security number.
9. A system, comprising:
a memory configured to store operations; and
one or more processors configured to perform the operations, the operations comprising:
receiving, by one or more computer devices, a request to complete a transaction from a mobile application on a user device;
pairing, by the one or more computer devices, the transaction with an Automated Teller Machine (ATM);
retrieving, by the one or more computer devices, information unique to a user of the user device;
generating, by the one or more computer devices, a personalized visual code based on the information unique to the user for display;
generating, by the one or more computer devices, a rule for presenting the personalized visual code on the ATM, the rule comprising at least one of: i) when the personalized visual code should be presented, ii) how long the personalized visual code is to be presented, or iii) how the personalized visual code should move when presented on the ATM; and
sending the rule to the ATM to guide display of the personalized visual code on the ATM.
10. The system of claim 9 , the operations further comprising sending the personalized visual code to the ATM for display of the personalized visual code on the ATM.
11. The system of claim 9 , the operations further comprising:
generating, by the one or more computer devices, a new rule for presenting the personalized visual code based on unique information received from the ATM, the unique information comprising at least one of: a number of users visiting the ATM daily, a location of the ATM, or a number of fraudulent attempts to complete transactions at the ATM; and
sending the new rule to the ATM to guide display of the personalized visual code on the ATM.
12. The system of claim 9 , wherein how the personalized visual code should move comprises at least one of blinking, rotating, traversing, flashing, or increasing/decreasing in size.
13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the personalized visual code is a quick response (QR) code, and wherein the information unique to the user is encoded in the QR code.
14. The system of claim 9 , wherein the information unique to the user is integrated with the personalized visual code as text or an image recognizable to the user.
15. The system of claim 9 , wherein the information unique to the user is encoded in the personalized visual code, the information unique to the user comprising at least one of an account number, a state identification number, a birth date, a physical address, a phone number, or a social security number.
16. A computer-readable storage device having instructions stored thereon, execution of which, by one or more processing devices, causes the one or more processing devices to perform operations comprising:
receiving, by one or more computer devices, a request to complete a transaction from a mobile application on a user device;
pairing, by the one or more computer devices, the transaction with an Automated Teller Machine (ATM);
retrieving, by the one or more computer devices, information unique to a user of the user device;
generating, by the one or more computer devices, a personalized visual code based on the information unique to the user for display;
generating, by the one or more computer devices, a rule for presenting the personalized visual code on the ATM, the rule comprising at least one of: i) when the personalized visual code should be presented, ii) how long the personalized visual code is to be presented, or iii) how the personalized visual code should move when presented on the ATM; and
sending the rule to the ATM to guide display of the personalized visual code on the ATM.
17. The computer-readable storage device of claim 16 , the operations further comprising:
generating, by the one or more computer devices, a new rule for presenting the personalized visual code based on unique information received from the ATM, the unique information comprising at least one of: a number of users visiting the ATM daily, a location of the ATM, or a number of fraudulent attempts to complete transactions at the ATM; and
