In the various embodiments, the user system 110 is a computer system, mobile device or other computing device used by a client 104 or other user to interact with an organization's online content and applications, such as by communicating with the financial institution location system 120. The user system 110 includes, in the embodiment shown, a processing device 112 communicatively coupled with a communication device 114 and a file system 116. The processing device, in some embodiments, is configured for controlling operation of the communication device 114 in order to communicate across the network 102, such as, for example, with the financial institution location system 120 and/or the financial institution backend system 150. The file system 116 is or includes a memory device or other memory configured for storing computer readable instructions 118 such as an operating system, applications, such as a browser and others, other computer program code and the like. In some embodiments, the computer readable instructions include a proximate banking program 119 configured for instructing the processing device 112 to perform one or more of the methods and/or steps discussed herein. The proximate banking program 119, in some embodiments, is configured for instructing the processing device 112 to communicate with the financial institution system, 120 and/or 150 either directly or over one or more external networks such that the user device may connect with a financial institution system to receive communications such as instructions and information about products and/or offers related to the customer's purpose in visiting the financial institution location and/or to begin and potentially complete a transaction. The processing device 112, of course, is configured for accessing and/or retrieving some or all the computer readable instructions 118 and executing some or all of them.
In one embodiment, for example, the network 102 is an intranet or other local area network (LAN) and the user system 110, the financial institution location system 120, and the financial institution backend system 150 are all part configured for communicating with one another across the intranet. In such an embodiment, the user system, when directed by the user 104 to access a particular intranet webpage, uses a browser program to navigate to the intranet webpage. The browser and/or the proximate banking program 119 then requests online interaction, such as webpage content, from the financial institution location system 120.
The financial institution location system 120, in some embodiments, is a server such as an organization server. In some embodiments, the financial institution location system 120 is maintained and/or owned by a financial institution such as a bank. In some such cases, the financial institution location system 120 is considered part of one or more backend systems of the bank. The financial institution location system 120 includes, in some embodiments, a processing device 122 communicatively coupled with a communication device 126 and a file system 124, such as a memory device or memory. The processing device 122 is configured for controlling operation of the communication device 126 for communicating over the network 102 such as with the user system 110 and/or the financial institution backend system 150. The file system 124 is configured for storing computer readable instructions 128, such as, for example, the proximate banking program 129, an operating system, other applications, other computer executable program code and the like. The proximate banking program 129 includes program code and/or instructions for performing one or more of the methods and/or method steps discussed herein. For example, in one embodiment, the proximate banking program 129 is configured for instructing the processing device 122 to communicate with the user device 110 either directly or over one or more external networks such that the user device may connect with the financial institution location system 120 to transmit communications such as instructions and information about products and/or offers related to the customer's purpose in visiting the financial institution location and/or to begin and potentially complete a transaction with the user of the user device 110. The processing device 122, of course, is configured to access and/or retrieve some or all the computer readable instructions 128 and execute some or all of them.
The financial institution backend system 150 is, in some embodiments, a server such as an organization server, a computer system, another computing device or the like. In some embodiments, the organization is a financial institution such as a bank and the financial institution backend system 150 is a financial institution server. In some instances, the financial institution backend system 150 is or is part of the bank's backend systems. The financial institution backend system 150, in some embodiments, includes a processing device 152 communicatively coupled with a communication device 154 and a file system 156. The processing device 152 is typically configured to control the communication device for communicating across the network 102 with one or more of the other systems, such as the financial institution location system 120 and/or the user system 110. The file system 156 is configured for storing computer readable instructions such as an transaction program 159, an operating system, other computer executable program code, applications and the like. The processing device 152 is configured for accessing and/or retrieving some or all the computer readable instructions 158 from the file system 156 and executing some or all of them. In some embodiments, for example, the transaction program 159 includes program code configured to instruct the processing device 152 communicate with the user device 110 either directly or over one or more external networks such that the user device may connect with the financial institution backend system 150 to transmit communications such as instructions and information about products and/or offers related to the customer's purpose in visiting the financial institution location and/or to begin and potentially complete a transaction with the user of the user device 110.
In some such embodiments, the financial institution location system and the financial institution backend system share components, such as, for example, processing device 122 is the same device as processing device 152. Likewise, in some embodiments, file system 126 is the same system as file system 156. In various embodiments, the computer readable instructions on a server (not shown) that includes only one “proximate banking program” including both the instructions of the proximate banking program 129 and the instructions of the transaction program 159. In other embodiments, the computer readable instructions of the server include multiple distinct programs, such as, for example, a distinct proximate banking program 129 and a distinct transaction program 159.
Embodiments of the invention provide for a system that monitors failed (or paused/abandoned) resource usage and remediates the failure (or re-initiates the paused/abandoned usage). In some embodiments, the system determines the location of the user based on the user device of the user. The location may be done by accessing the GPS coordinates of the user device, recognizing the cell station with which the user device is connected, recognizing the location of a WiFi source with which the user device is connected and/or others. Further, the system may receive information from the user device that the user attempted to perform an action (e.g., a transaction). For example, the user may attempt to scan a check in order to submit its digital image for mobile deposit into the user's account. If the process fails for some reason (or if the user pauses the process such as inputting some but not all the necessary information in an application for a product), for example, if the user device's Internet connection is lost, then the user device may already have some information about the failed transaction. In the example of the mobile check deposit, the user device may have an image of a check that may or may not have all the necessary information from the check to make a deposit. The user device may also have the capability to extract the important data from the check. Thus, the user device may be able to provide some or all the information necessary to complete the previously attempted transaction to the financial institution system. The system may then proceed with the deposit of the check automatically and may request confirmation from the user (either through the user device or in person through a station such as an ATM or through a teller) that the user desires to deposit the check.
In some embodiments, the system pushes the user to a particular station and/or teller. This may be done in order to steer the user to the This may be done by determining the nature of the failed transaction and determining which station/teller is best suited to complete the failed transaction for the user. Once this is done, the system may transmit to the user device of the user an indication of which station/teller for the user to use. In some embodiments, in order to authenticate the user to the station/teller, the user's photograph and/or other information about the user may be presented to the teller so that the teller may manually confirm the user's identity. In some embodiments, the user may take a selfie photograph and provide it to the system for use as an authentication photograph.
In some embodiments, when a user attempts and fails to complete a transaction using the user device, the user device may be configured to generate (or retrieve from a list of pre-generated identifiers) a unique failed transaction identifier. In other embodiments, the user device may communicate with a financial institution system and request a failed transaction identifier to be sent to the user device. In some cases, some of the data necessary to complete a transaction is transmitted from a user device to a financial institution system but the transmission may be lacking necessary information. In such a case, once any re-transmissions attempts have been exhausted, the FI system may transmit a failed transaction identifier (or instructions to generate/retrieve a failed transaction identifier) to the user device. The user device may then present the failed transaction identifier to the user in some embodiments.
The failed transaction identifier may be used both to authenticate the identity of the user and/or to provide the financial institution location (either branch or ATM) the ability to retrieve any data regarding the failed transaction from the financial institution systems. In some embodiments, the failed transaction identifier is sufficient to authenticate the identity of the user so that the user may not be required to provide any additional form(s) of identification.
In some embodiments, the system may transmit alerts to the user device requesting the user verify signatures provided at a merchant's point of sale. In other embodiments, the system may transmit notifications regarding various bank services that are being provided for the user.

The next step, as represented by block 205, is to expedite a second attempt to perform the action. This step 205 may include one or more sub-steps, such as sub-step 206, which is receiving authentication information including the provided information from the user. For example, if the FI system provides a failed transaction identifier to the user device, then the user may supply the failed transaction identifier when the user visits the financial institution for authentication of the identity of the user. Sub-step 207 is to authenticate the identity of the user based on the received authentication information. This authentication information may be or include a user identifier, a user device identifier, a failed transaction identifier and/or the like.
The final step, as represented by block 208, is to perform the action (such as completing the transaction) in response to authenticating the identity of the user.
Referring now to
When the user device is within the range, a secure connection is established between a financial institution system and the user device, as represented by block 220. This connection may be made based on the user device being recognized by a financial institution location system 120 maintaining a wireless communication network that recognizes the presence of the user device. The connection, in other embodiments, may be made based on the user device having an application running that recognizes its location is proximate a financial institution location based on GPS or some other location determination functionality and then connects the user device over another wireless network, such as by using the user device's cellular data connection, with a financial institution backend system 150.
The established connection, in some embodiments, is a secure connection. The connection may need to be secured for sensitive information such as account information or otherwise to be transmitted across the connection. In some embodiments, the information that is transmitted is encrypted before being transmitted so as to further increase security of the transmitted information.
The next step, as represented by block 230, is for the system to receive, from the user device and over the secure connection, user input. The user input may include information indicating the user's purpose for visiting the financial institution location. This user information is received from the user in response to a prompt requesting the user communicate the user's intentions in visiting the financial institution location. The user's input may be received in a variety of ways, such as by capturing spoken word of the user, receiving textual input from the user or other touch-based input, retrieving predetermined user preferences or otherwise. In some embodiments, the user input is received in response to one or more questions and/or options presented to the user for consideration. For example, in one embodiment, the application presents a list of the most common reasons a user visits a financial institution location to the user for the user's selection of their purpose in visiting. If the user's purpose is not listed, the user may be given an option to select that none of the available options match the user's purpose in visiting. The user may then be given another list of the next most likely reasons for the user visiting or the user may have an option to provide specific input, audibly or textually, for the user's purpose in visiting.
The next step, as represented by block 240, is for the system to transmit, to the user device and over the secure connection, at least one communication based at least in part on the received user purpose for visiting the financial institution location.
Referring now to
The next step, as represented by block 340, is to receive information indicating a type of transaction and transaction details from the user. For example, the user may indicate that the user wishes to deposit a check electronically and indicate the destination account for the funds. In step 350, the system processes the user information to conduct the transaction based at least in part on the type of transaction and the transaction details received from the user. At step 360, the system communicates, to the user, a message indicating the transaction has been processed.
In some instances, the user will not complete a transaction using the user device but rather, will merely receive information over the user device providing the user instructions for completing a transaction or other information useful to the user given the user's purpose for coming to the location.
Referring now to
According to some embodiments of the invention, a user device may run an application in its background that recognizes when the user device approaches a financial institution location and provides a notification to the user. Referring now to
The next step, as represented by block 520, is to establish a connection with the user device. The connection may be established directly with the financial institution location system, such as over a WIFI network or other local connection channel or may be established through an external network such as by using the user device's cellular data network. In a case where the connection is made over an external network, the user device may connect with the financial institution location system, which is located in or proximate the financial institution location or some other system maintained by the financial institution, such as a financial institution backend system, which is typically not collocated with the financial institution location.
The next step, represented by block 530, is to determine an identity of the user. This may be done by receiving user authentication information such as a username and password or may be done in other ways, such as by receiving a token or device ID unique to the user device. The next step, represented by block 540, is to determine a user purpose for visiting the location. As discussed above, the user's purpose in visiting the location may be inputted by the user in response to a prompt and may be in response to one or more questions inquiring details about the user's purpose in visiting the location. In some embodiments, where it is determined that the user device is traveling in proximity of a financial institution location or traveling toward a financial institution location or both, the user device may prompt the user to confirm that the user is traveling to the financial institution location, and then, in some embodiments, may proceed to prompt the user to input the user's purpose in traveling to the financial institution location. The next step, represented by block 550, is to communicate instructions to the application running on the user device. The instructions may cause the user device to navigate to a page of a website of the financial institution corresponding to the determined user purpose for visiting the location. For example, the user device may navigate to an online banking website page dedicated to accepting an electronic deposit or transferring funds. In other instances, the user device may navigate to a page of the financial institution providing information about a product or offer.
Referring now to
In some embodiments, the next step, represented by block 620, is the system accessing the device ID or the token from a list of device IDs or tokens, where each device ID or token is associated with a stored PIN or other supplementary authentication mechanism. In some embodiments, such as when secondary or supplemental authentication is not required, the system also, or alternatively, accesses the identity of the customer/user and the user is considered to be authenticated. In a case where secondary or supplemental authentication is required, as represented by block 630, the system may receive a PIN or other secondary authentication mechanism from the user device. The user device may, of course, receive the PIN from user input. The next step, represented by block 640, is determining whether the received PIN or other secondary authentication mechanism matches a stored PIN associated with the device ID or token received from the user device. In this regard, the PIN input by the user provides secondary authentication for embodiments where the user device may automatically connect with the financial institution system and provide preliminary authentication, such as by providing a device ID to a financial institution system.
Referring now to
In summary, embodiments of the invention are directed to a system that provides assistance to a user having a user device proximate a financial institution location by receiving a communication initiated by an application running on the user device without initiation by the user; establishing a connection with the user device; determining an identity of the user; determining a user purpose for visiting the location; and communicating instructions to the application running on the user device, the instructions to cause the user device to navigate to a page of a website of the financial institution corresponding to the determined user purpose for visiting the location. In some embodiments, the identity of the user is determined by determining whether a received PIN matches a stored PIN associated with a device ID received from the user device.
