Systems and methods for initiating payment from a client device
The disclosed embodiments include a mobile client device for automatically performing a mobile financial service function, including a memory storing software instructions, the software instructions including a mobile financial service application configured to perform financial service processes. The system may also include and one or more processors configured to execute the software instructions to detect a physical action performed on the mobile client device, and determine a first financial service function to perform based on the detected physical action, wherein the first financial service function is a function provided by the mobile financial service application. The one or more processors may also determine whether verification of a user is required, verify the user if verification of the user is required, and automatically initiate the first financial service function.
1. A computer-implemented method for automatically initiating a financial service function using a mobile client device, comprising;
detecting, by a mobile client device executing a software application configured to perform financial service processes, a motion pattern associated with a physical drawing action performed on the mobile client device by a user;
determining, by the mobile client device, a financial service function of the software application based on the detected motion pattern;
analyzing, by the mobile client device, the detected motion pattern based on predefined criteria;
verifying the user, by the mobile client device, based on the analysis of the motion pattern; and
automatically initiating, by the mobile client device, the financial service function based at least on the verification.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the motion pattern is associated with a drawing performed on a touch-sensitive component of the mobile client device.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the motion pattern represents a code word, a name, or a set of initials associated with the predetermined criteria.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the predetermined criteria is preconfigured with the software application.
5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the predetermined criteria comprises the motion pattern and is selected by the user.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the financial service function is a deep linked function provided by the software application.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the financial service function is a payment function provided by the software application.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the payment function includes a payment method comprising at least one of an optical payment code payment method, a near-field communication payment method, an audio payment signal method, an internet-based payment method, or an SMS-based payment method.
9. A mobile apparatus for automatically initiating a financial service function, comprising;
a memory storing software instructions, the software instructions including a financial service application configured to perform financial service functions; and
at least one processor configured to execute the stored software instructions to:
detect a motion pattern associated with a physical drawing action performed on the mobile client device by a user;
select at least one of the financial service function based on the detected motion pattern;
analyze the detected motion pattern based on predetermined criteria;
verify the user based on the analysis of the motion pattern; and
automatically initiate the least one selected financial service function based at least on the verification.
10. The mobile apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the motion pattern is associated with a drawing performed on a touch-sensitive component of the mobile client device.
11. The mobile apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the motion pattern represents a code word, a name, or a set of initials associated with the predetermined criteria.
12. The mobile apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the predetermined criteria is preconfigured with the software application.
13. The mobile apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the predetermined criteria comprises the motion pattern and is selected by the user.
14. The mobile apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the financial service function is a deep linked function provided by the software application.
15. The mobile apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the financial service function is a payment function provided by the software application.
16. The mobile apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the payment function includes a payment method comprising at least one of an optical payment code payment method, a near-field communication payment method, an audio payment signal method, an internet-based payment method, or an SMS-based payment method.
17. A transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
detecting, in a mobile client device executing a software application configured to perform financial service processes, a motion pattern associated with a physical drawing action performed on the mobile client device by a user;
determining, by the mobile client device, a financial service function of the software application based on the detected motion pattern;
analyzing, by the mobile client device, the detected motion pattern based on predetermined criteria;
verifying the user, by the mobile client device, based on the analysis of the motion pattern; and
automatically initiating, by the mobile client device, the financial service function based at least on the verification.
18. The storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the motion pattern is associated with a drawing performed on a touch-sensitive component of the mobile client device.
19. The storage medium of claim 18 , wherein the motion pattern represents a code word, a name, or a set of initials.
20. The storage medium of claim 19 , wherein the predetermined criteria is preconfigured with the software application.
21. The storage medium of claim 19 , wherein the predetermined criteria comprises a motion pattern and is selected by the user.
22. The storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the financial service function is a deep linked function provided by the software application.
23. The storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the financial service function is a payment function provided by the software application.
24. The storage medium of claim 23 , wherein the payment function includes a payment method comprising at least one of an optical payment code payment method, a near-field communication payment method, an audio payment signal method, an internet-based payment method, or an SMS-based payment method.
