The payment device in this embodiment of the present disclosure uses the local security chip to store the transaction information including two types: the digital currency and the identification information, and supports the dual-offline payments and single-offline payments with a higher transaction rate. The payment device decides to transmit the digital currency or the identification information based on the instruction sent by the collection device, and initiates the dual-offline payment or the single-offline payment. The identification information may be configured to identify a parent wallet account, an another online wallet account, local wallet accounts, and local digital currencies. Different identifiers correspond to different user experiences. Moreover, based on different terminal forms, different networking capabilities, and different identified accounts, a storage mechanism for the local account balance varies. For example, for payment devices such as the mobile phone terminal, the online wallet account balance and the local balance may coexist and be maintained separately. However, for payment devices such as an IC card terminal, during transmission of the digital currency or identification information, a unified local balance may be maintained. According to this embodiment of the present disclosure, the transaction may be performed by replying on the local digital currency or an institution backend account system. Link mapping between the identification information and the wallet account may also be customized based on businesses, and strong scalability is achieved.
The both parties involved in transaction refer to a payer and a payee. The payer is a payment device, such as a payment terminal, and the payee is a collection device, such as a collection terminal. The payer and the payee may establish a connection through respective short-range communication modules. The short-range communication modules are configured to establish a payment channel between the both parties and transmit transaction information such as certificates. The communication methods may include near field communication (NFC), Bluetooth communication, wireless local area network (WLAN) direct, ultra wide band (UWB), etc.
Both the parties involved in transaction are respectively provided with security chip storage modules. The security chip storage module is mainly configured to store transaction sensitive information, including a digital currency and further including identification information of an operating institution backend for identifying an account or digital currency, transaction logs, wallet balances, etc. Based on different terminal forms, the identification information may identify a local wallet, and a local digital currency, and may also identify an online wallet of the user.
There may be three methods for performing transaction information storage on the security chip and establishing the association relationship of the operating institution backend in this embodiment of the present disclosure. According to a first method, when a payer user opens a digital currency wallet, the operating institution backend saves user information and issues identification information to a local security chip of the payer. The identification information identifies a local wallet account and is called a local wallet account identifier. When the user recharges, the operating institution backend issues a digital currency to the local security chip of the payer, and meanwhile records a mapping relationship between the identification information (local wallet account identifier) and the digital currency. According to a second method, when a payer user opens a digital currency wallet, the operating institution backend saves user information and issues identification information to a local security chip of the payer, and the identification information identifies a parent wallet of the user, called a parent wallet account identifier. Alternatively, the identification information identifies an another online wallet account of the user, called an another online wallet account identifier, and subsequent local digital currency recharge performed by the user is unrelated to the identification information. According to a third method, when the user recharges, the operating institution backend issues a digital currency and meanwhile records information of the digital currency, and when the user subsequently transmits information such as a serial number, the operating institution backend updates a backend account.
There may be two methods for the both parties involved in transaction to establish a communication connection and initiate a transaction. Firstly, when the payee is online (i.e., in a case that the collection device is a device with a networking capability in device form and is in an online network status), the payer transmits identification information or a digital currency to the payee, the identification information may be a local wallet identifier, an online wallet identifier, or a digital currency identifier, and the payee transmits the identification information to the payer operating institution backend for verification. Secondly, when the payee is offline (i.e., in the case that the collection device is a device without a networking capability in device form, or the collection device is a device with a networking capability in form, but is in an offline network status), the payer transmits the digital currency to the payee, and the payee performs local verification. Digital currency transmission refers to digital currency string transmission.
The both parties involved in transaction may determine the transmitted transaction information type based on the network status and the terminal form of the both parties. For example, after the payee receives an inputted payment amount, the payee determines an instruction required to be sent to the payer based on the network status and the terminal form (i.e., device form) of the both parties, and then sends the instruction to the payer. The payer presets a preset corresponding relationship between the instruction and the transaction information type, such that the payer may determine, based on specific content in the instruction of the payee, that the corresponding transaction information in the security chip storage module needs to be transmitted in the current payment.
The security chip storage module may invoke the transaction information through the local security chip, and then transmit the transaction information. The payer may invoke, based on an instruction sent by the payer, the transaction information through the local security chip, and send the transaction information to the payee.
As at least one alternative embodiment, the payee may determine, based on the transaction information type, whether to perform the local verification or perform transmission to the corresponding operating institution backend for verification. For example, if the payer sends a digital currency, the local verification may be performed by the payee. If the payer sends a parent wallet account identifier, the parent wallet account identifier may be transmitted to the corresponding operating institution backend to be verified.
The payee may establish a connection with the operating institution backend through a terminal communication module, and the terminal communication module is configured to transmit the transaction information to the operating institution backend.
An institution backend transaction module of the operating institution backend records a mapping relationship between identification information and a user wallet/digital currency, verifies legitimacy of the user transaction information, and records a user transaction status, balance information, etc. corresponding to the identification information.
After receiving a return result that the payer verification succeeds, the payer records the transaction log, and updates the digital currency balance.
There may be four methods for initiating a deduction and updating the balance in the case of the successful transaction information verification. According to a first method, if the identification information is a local wallet account identifier of the payer, the operating institution backend performs the deduction, and the payer receives the deduction completing instruction and updates the local wallet balance. According to a second method, if the identification information is a parent wallet account identifier or an another online wallet account identifier of the payer, the operating institution backend performs the corresponding account deduction, a parent wallet or an another online wallet receives a deduction notification within the application or through a short message, and the local account balance of the payer is not updated. According to a third method, if the identification information is a digital currency identifier of a local wallet of the payer, such as a digital currency serial number or an another identifier of the digital currency, the operating institution backend performs the deduction, and the payer receives the deduction completing instruction and updates the local wallet balance. According to a fourth method, the payer transmits a digital currency (currency string itself) to the payee, and after the payee verification succeeds, the payer receives a successful verification instruction returned by the payee, and the payer updates the local digital currency balance.
According to this embodiment of the present disclosure, the payer stores the digital currency and the identification information. Different types of transaction information are transmitted according to the instruction of the payee. The instruction of the payee is related to the network status and the terminal form of the terminal, and the dual-offline payment or single-offline payment is achieved through verification by a terminal side (terminal) or the operating institution backend. This embodiment of the present disclosure may be used for payment devices with a networking capability and payment devices without a networking capability, and can identify different wallets, parent-child wallets, or single wallets.
When the method and system according to this embodiment of the present disclosure are applied to a digital currency wallet with a networking capability such as a mobile phone terminal, the user can perform an off-screen payment. Particularly, in a parent-child wallet system, when the payee is online, a transaction identifier of a parent wallet may be transmitted to perform a wallet parent account payment; and when the payee is offline, transmission of a digital currency is supported to perform a local wallet payment.
When this embodiment of the present disclosure is applied to a digital currency wallet without a networking capability such as an IC card and a visual IC card, when the payee is online, identification information (an account identifier of a local wallet) or a digital currency serial number of a local account may be transmitted to perform a local wallet payment. When the payee is offline, transmission of a digital currency (i.e., a digital currency string) is supported to perform a local wallet payment. Dual-offline and single-offline operations are supported, and the security chip maintains unified updates of the balance. According to this embodiment of the present disclosure, the transaction rate is greatly increased in the case that the both parties involved in transaction are online. The dual-offline transaction can be performed by transmitting the digital currency in the case that the both parties are offline, and therefore the transaction scalability and coverage are improved.
During applied to a networked device such as a mobile phone terminal, if the payment is performed by using identification information of the parent wallet, a deduction notification is received through a parent wallet App or a short message, and the local balance is not updated. During applied to a non-networked device such as the IC card, the local wallet identification information, the serial number (digital currency identifier), and the digital currency are used for the payment, and the local balance is updated uniformly, so as to effectively solve the problem of inconsistency in account display. The user can combine the dual-offline transaction and single-offline transaction of the digital currency without touch. During the single-offline transaction, the transaction rate is greatly increased, and the user experience is effectively improved.
The transaction information determination module 601 is configured to determine transaction information of a current digital currency transaction based on an instruction sent by a collection device.
The security chip storage module 602 is configured to invoke, by a local security chip, the transaction information, and send the transaction information to the collection device for verification, wherein the transaction information includes a digital currency or identification information, and the identification information is configured to identify a wallet account or digital currency of the payment device.
The balance update module 603 is configured to update a digital currency balance after determining that the transaction information passes the verification.
The transaction information determination module 601 may be configured to: determine, based on the instruction sent by the collection device, the transaction information of the current digital currency transaction according to a preset corresponding relationship between an instruction and a transaction information type. The instruction sent by the collection device is related to the network status and/or device forms of the payment device and the collection device.
In a case that the collection device is a device with a networking capability in device form and is in an online network status, the transaction information includes one of a wallet account identifier, a digital currency identifier, and a digital currency. The security chip storage module 602 is configured to obtain one of the wallet account identifier, the digital currency identifier, and the digital currency from the local security chip so as to generate the transaction information.
The security chip storage module 602 is further configured to: obtain a digital currency issued by an operating institution backend system of the digital currency during a recharge operation by the payment device, and store a corresponding digital currency identifier in the local security chip.
In a case that the transaction information is generated based on the digital currency identifier, the balance update module is further configured to: perform, by the operating institution backend system of the digital currency, a deduction operation after the payment device determines that the transaction information passes the verification, and update the local digital currency balance after the payment device receives a deduction completing instruction returned by the operating institution backend system.
In a case that the payment device is a device with a networking capability in device form, the wallet account identifier is one of a parent wallet account identifier, an another online wallet account identifier, and a local wallet account identifier of the payment device. In a case that the payment device is a device without a networking capability in device form, the wallet account identifier is the local wallet account identifier of the payment device.
The security chip storage module 602 is further configured to: receive a wallet account identifier issued by the operating institution backend system of the digital currency during the creation of a wallet account by the payment device, and store the wallet account identifier in the local security chip. In the case that the wallet account identifier is the local wallet account identifier, when the payment device performs a recharge operation, the operating institution backend system records a mapping relationship between the digital currency for recharge and the local wallet account identifier.
In the case that the transaction information is generated based on the local wallet account identifier, the balance update module 603 is further configured to: perform, by the operating institution backend system, a deduction operation after determining that the transaction information passes the verification, and update the digital currency balance of the local wallet account based on the deduction completing instruction returned by the operating institution backend system.
In the case that the transaction information is generated based on the parent wallet account identifier or another online wallet account identifier, the balance update module 603 is further configured to: perform, by the operating institution backend system, a deduction operation after determining that the transaction information passes the verification, and update the digital currency balance in a corresponding parent wallet application or online wallet application without updating the digital currency balance of the local wallet account.
In the case that the collection device is a device without a networking capability in device form, or the collection device is a device with a networking capability in form but is in an offline network status, the transaction information includes a digital currency. The security chip storage module 602 is further configured to: obtain, by the payment device, a digital currency from the local security chip so as to generate transaction information.
In the case of generating transaction information based on the digital currency, the balance update module is further configured to update a local digital currency balance after determining that the transaction information passes the verification.
According to this embodiment of the present disclosure, when the payee is offline, after identity verification of the both parties, a digital currency expression is transmitted, and the verification is successful, thereby achieving the dual-offline payment. Meanwhile, a transaction log is recorded in the security chip, and the digital currency balance is updated. When the payee is online, the payer transmits transaction information mapped at the backend, and verification is performed through a symmetric key of the security chip and the institution backend. After the verification is successful, a deduction on a backend mapped account is performed, meanwhile, the security chip records a transaction log, and the digital currency balance is updated. The solution greatly improves coverage of the digital currency payment, effectively shortens the transaction time, and ensures validness of the balance.
In addition, the specific implementation content of the digital currency payment apparatus in this embodiment of the present disclosure is described in detail in the above digital currency payment method, and therefore the repeated content is not described any more.
