Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for managing customer data and customer preferences across a plurality of platforms.
Many customers link information (e.g., account types, account balances, payment account information, etc.) maintained by a financial institution to devices (e.g., in a mobile wallet on a smartphone, wearable devices, Internet of Things devices, etc.) and to third-party systems (e.g., financial health monitoring services, merchant e-commerce systems, social media platforms, mobile wallet systems, etc.). The customer may share the information with a plurality of different services. For example, the customer may provide account information to a financial health monitoring service, payment card information to a plurality of different mobile wallet services, payment card information to their favorite retailers, and the like. Once the access is provided, the customer can manage preferences relating to the access at each of the third-party systems (e.g., via a third-party website or smartphone application). However, this process can be cumbersome when the customer has authorized a plurality of third-parties to have access to the information maintained by the financial institution. Moreover, information shared by the customer becomes stored in additional databases, exposing the customer to additional security risks and making the customer's information more likely to become available to unwanted parties (as a result of, for example, the additional databases being hacked or the customer information otherwise being intentionally or unintentionally leaked).

These and other features, together with the organization and manner of operation thereof, will become apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Referring to the figures generally, systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing a customer a central location to manage permissions provided to third-parties and devices to access and use customer information maintained by a financial institution or other service provider are described. The central location serves as a central portal where a customer of the financial institution can manage all access to account information and personal information stored at the financial institution. Accordingly, the customer does not need to log into each individual third-party system or customer device to manage previously provided access to the customer information or to provision new access to the customer information.
Referring to
The customer 102 is an account holder with the financial institution 104. The financial institution 104 includes a financial institution computing system 110. The financial institution computing system 110 maintains information about accounts held with the financial institution 104 and facilitates the movement of funds into and out of the accounts. Additionally, the financial institution computing system 110 facilitates the sharing of and the provision of access to information associated with customer accounts to the customer 102, to customer devices 108, and to third-party systems 106. The financial institution computing system 110 includes a network interface 112. The network interface 112 is structured to facilitate data communication with other computing systems (e.g., the customer devices 108, the third-party systems 106, etc.) via a network 126. The network interface 112 includes hardware and program logic that facilitates connection of the financial institution computing system 110 to the network 126. For example, the network interface 112 may include a wireless network transceiver (e.g., a cellular modem, a Bluetooth transceiver, a WiFi transceiver, etc.) and/or a wired network transceiver (e.g., an Ethernet transceiver). In some arrangements, the network interface 112 includes the hardware and programming logic sufficient to support communication over multiple channels of data communication (e.g., the Internet and an internal financial institution network). Further, in some arrangements, the network interface 112 is structured to encrypt data sent over the network 126 and decrypt received encrypted data.
The financial institution computing system 110 includes a processing circuit 114 having a processor 116 and memory 118. The processor 116 may be implemented as a general-purpose processor, an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), one or more field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), a digital signal processor (DSP), a group of processing components, or other suitable electronic processing components. The memory 118 includes one or more memory devices (e.g., RAM, NVRAM, ROM, Flash Memory, hard disk storage, etc.) that store data and/or computer code for facilitating the various processes described herein. Moreover, the memory 118 may be or include tangible, non-transient volatile memory or non-volatile memory.
The financial institution computing system 110 includes an account management circuit 120 and an access control circuit 122. Although shown as separate circuits in
The financial institution computing system 110 includes the accounts database 124. In some arrangements, the accounts database 124 is part of the memory 118. The accounts database 124 is structured to hold, store, categorize, and otherwise serve as a repository for information associated with accounts (e.g., loan accounts, savings accounts, checking accounts, credit accounts, etc.) held by the financial institution 104. For example, the accounts database 124 may store account numbers, account balances, transaction information, account ownership information, and the like. The accounts database 124 is structured to selectively provide access to information relating to accounts at the financial institution 104 (e.g., to the customer 102 via a customer device 108). In some arrangements, the financial institution computing system 110 includes other databases, such as customer document and information databases structured to store non-account related information or other documents associated with the customer 102 for distribution to third-parties at the approval of the customer 102.
Still referring to
The customer 102 is associated with various customer devices 108. The customer devices 108 may include, for example, smartphones, tablet computers, laptop computers, desktop computers, wearables (e.g., smart watches, smart glasses, fitness trackers, etc.), internet of things (“IOT”) devices (e.g., Amazon Echo®, smart appliances, etc.). Each of the customer devices 108 may be provided access to different portions of the information associated with the customer 102 that is stored, generated, maintained, and/or controlled in part by the financial institution 104. For example, a smartphone may be provided access to payment account and billing address information for a mobile wallet running on the smartphone, while an IOT device may be provided access to payment information, account balance information, and transaction information to execute purchases and review transactions. As described in further detail below, the customer 102 can provide a given customer device 108 access to designated information, limit access to information, and revoke access to information through the access control tower provided by the financial institution 104. In some arrangements, the customer devices 108 do not communicate with the financial institution computing system 110 via the network 126. For example, the customer devices 108 can include payment cards (e.g., credit cards, debit cards, smart cards, etc.) that have account information that can be linked by the financial institution computing system 110 to account information and customer preferences stored at the financial institution computing system 110.
The devices of the system 100 communicate via the network 126. The network 126 may include any combination of the Internet and an internal private network (e.g., a private network maintained by the financial institution 104). Through data communication over the network 126, the financial institution computing system 110 can share customer information with the third-party systems 106 and the customer devices 108.
The financial institution computing system 110 includes customer information APIs 128 that define how the financial institution computing system 110 communicates customer information with the third-party systems 106 and the customer devices 108. The APIs facilitate the sharing of and access to the customer information stored at the financial institution computing system 110 based on permissions and preferences provided by the customer 102.
The access control circuit 122 controls access to the customer information by the third-party systems 106 and the customer devices 108 via the APIs 128. In some arrangements, the financial institution computing system 110 provisions requested customer data to a given third-party system 106 or customer device 108 for local storage on the third-party system 106 or the customer device 108. For example, the financial institution computing system 110 can provision payment information, such as payment tokens associated with payment accounts, to a mobile wallet system for local storage at the mobile wallet system. In other arrangements, the financial institution computing system 110 provides access to remotely display, present, or analyze customer information stored at the financial institution computing system 110 while the financial institution computing system 110 retains control over the customer information. For example, the financial institution computing system 110 can provide access to a financial health system to present designated customer account information through a financial health website, such as balances, transaction information, and the like, when the financial health system requests the information, without directly transmitting the data to the financial health system.
Generally, through the information management system 100, the customer 102 can provision access to customer information to third-party systems 106 and to customer devices 108 (e.g., by permitting the third-party system 106 or the customer device 108 to communicate with the financial institution computing system 110 to retrieve the customer information). The customer information is maintained by the financial institution 104 via the financial institution computing system 110. The customer information can include any information associated with the customer 102 that is generated by or maintained by the financial institution 104, including customer account information (e.g., account numbers, billing address, balance information, transaction information, account type information, account statements, etc.), personal information (e.g., date of birth, social security number, tax identifications, addresses, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, aliases, etc.), information provided to the financial institution 104 during the account opening process (e.g., driver's license scans, passport scans, marriage certificates, property deeds, etc.). Additionally, customer information can include any other information provided by the customer 102 to the financial institution 104 for the purposes of controlling access to the provided information. This other information may include data files, personal information, documents, or the like. The customer 102 can provision access to the customer information through the third-party, the customer device 108, or via the FI computing system data control tower. Additionally, the customer 102 can manage all previously provided access permissions via the data control tower to change an access level, set permissions, revoke access, or the like. As described herein, the provision of the customer information can be managed on a payment level (e.g., managing all third-party and device access to customer account identifying information such as account numbers and billing addresses for the purposes of making payments), on an application level (e.g., managing third party and device access to customer information for purposes of incorporating such information into third party applications), and on a device level (e.g., managing the devices that may receive the customer information).

In the example shown, the customer mobile device 200 includes a network interface 202 enabling the customer mobile device 200 to communicate via the network 126, an input/output device (“I/O” device) 204, third party client applications 206, and a financial institution client application 208. I/O device 204 includes hardware and associated logics configured to to exchange information with a customer and other devices (e.g., a merchant transaction terminal). An input aspect of the I/O device 204 allows the customer to provide information to the customer mobile device 200, and may include, for example, a mechanical keyboard, a touchscreen, a microphone, a camera, a fingerprint scanner, any customer input device engageable to the customer mobile device 200 via a USB, serial cable, Ethernet cable, and so on. An output aspect of the I/O device 204 allows the customer to receive information from the customer mobile device 200, and may include, for example, a digital display, a speaker, illuminating icons, LEDs, and so on. The I/O device 204 may include systems, components, devices, and apparatuses that serve both input and output functions, allowing the financial institution computing system 110 exchange information with the customer mobile device 200. Such systems, components, devices and apparatuses include, for example, radio frequency transceivers (e.g., RF or NFC-based transceivers) and other short range wireless transceivers (e.g., Bluetooth®, laser-based data transmitters, etc.).
Third party client applications 206 are structured to provide the customer with access to services offered by various third parties (e.g., associated with third party systems 106). Some third party client applications 206 may be hard coded onto the memory of the customer mobile device 200, while other third party client application 206 may be web-based interface applications, where the customer has to log onto or access the web-based interface before usage, and these applications are supported by a separate computing system comprising one or more servers, processors, network interface circuits, or the like (e.g., third party systems 106), that transmit the applications for use to the mobile device.
In some arrangements, the third party client applications 206 are structured to permit management of at least one customer account associated with a third party service. Accordingly, a particular third party client application 206 may be communicably coupled to a third party system 106 via the network 126. Through this communicative coupling, the third party system 106 may provide displays regarding the particular third party service or application. For example, one third party client application 206 may include a calendar application, and the displays provided by third party client application 206 may enable the customer 102 to input information regarding customer events, meetings, appointments (e.g., information regarding the timing and location of customer events). Upon the customer 102 inputting such information regarding the customer events, the customer-input information is stored at a third party system 106, and incorporated into future displays provided to the customer 102 via the third party client application. Through such displays, the customer 102 is able view the previously-input information via a calendar interface. Other third party client applications 206 include, but are not limited to financial health applications (e.g., applications configured to provide the customer 102 with financial advice), and social media applications.
In some embodiments, some of the third party client applications 206 include APIs specifically configured to request information from the financial institution computing system 110. For example, the financial institution 104 may have arrangements with third parties providing third party client applications 206. Under such arrangements, the customer 102 is able to provide particular third party client applications 206 with access to subsets of information pertaining to the customer 102 stored at the financial institution computing system 110 (e.g., in the accounts database 124). Upon the customer 102 providing such permission to a third party client application 206, the customer mobile device 200 may transmit information requests to the financial institution computing system 110 via such APIs, and utilize information received from the financial institution computing system 110 to update the displays rendered viewable by the customer 102 via the third party client application 206.
To illustrate, the customer 102 may provide a calendar application with customer bill payment information stored at the financial institution computing system 110. The calendar application may include a widget specifically configured to enable the customer 102 to insert the bill payment information into the calendar application. This way, the customer 102 is reminded of bill payments in the third party client application 206.
In various arrangements, the particular communications channel through which customer financial information is provided to the third party client application 206 may vary depending on the implementation of the third party client application 206. For example, if the third party client application 206 is web-based, a third party system 106 providing the third party client application 206 to the customer mobile device 200 may receive the customer information maintained at the financial institution computing system 110, and incorporate that information into various displays rendered on the customer mobile device 200 via the third party client application 206
In situations where a third party client application 206 is a native application on the customer mobile device 200, the customer mobile device 200 may formulate and transmit an information request via an API in the third party client application 206 to the financial institution computing system 110. The information request may include an identifier (e.g., encryption key) that is based at least in part on the identity of the third party client application 206, on the type of information that may be shared with the third party client application 206, and/or on the customer devices 108 from which the information request may be transmitted. In some implementations, the information request may be routed via financial institution client application 208. For example, the third party client application 206 may make a request to the financial institution client application 208, which obtains the requested information from the financial institution computing system 110. As such, depending on the application permissions provided by the customer 102 via the methods described herein, the financial institution computing system 110 (and/or the financial institution client application 208) may allow or deny the third party client application 206 access to the requested information.
The financial institution client application 208 is structured to provide displays to the customer mobile device 200 that enable the customer 102 to manage financial accounts. Accordingly, the financial institution client application 208 is communicably coupled to the financial institution computing system 110 (e.g., the account management circuit 120 and the access control circuit 122) and is structured to permit management of the customer financial accounts and transactions. The displays provided by the financial institution client application 208 may be indicative of current account balances, pending transactions, profile information (e.g., contact information), and the like.
Further, in some embodiments, the financial institution client application 208 is structured to present displays pertaining to the access control tower discussed herein. In this regard, via the financial institution client application 208, the customer mobile device 200 is configured to receive various datasets from the financial institution computing system 110 describing the entities (e.g., third party systems 106, customer devices 108, third party applications 206) to which the customer 102 has provided access to customer financial information. The customer mobile device 200, via the financial institution client application 208, is configured to render such datasets into various data control tower interfaces. As described herein, through such interfaces, the customer 102 is able to modify the quantity of information available to these entities, and provide additional entities with access to information at the financial institution computing system 110.
In some embodiments, the customer mobile device 200 is configured (e.g., via the financial institution client application 208) to perform various operations described herein as being performed by the financial institution computing system 110. For example, in one embodiment, financial institution client application 208 includes APIs structured to integrate with various third party client applications 206 on the customer mobile device 200. Through such APIs, customer information received from the financial institution computing system 110 via the financial institution client application 208 may be shared with the third party client applications 206, and utilized by the third party client applications 206.
In some embodiments, the financial institution client application 208 is a separate software application implemented on the customer mobile device 200. The financial institution client application 208 may be downloaded by the customer mobile device 200 prior to its usage, hard coded into the memory of the customer mobile device 200, or be a web-based interface application such that the customer mobile device 200 may provide a web browser to the application, which may be executed remotely from the customer mobile device 200. In the latter instance, the customer 102 may have to log onto or access the web-based interface before usage of the applications. Further, and in this regard, the financial institution client application 208 may be supported by a separate computing system including one or more servers, processors, network interface circuits, etc. that transmit applications for use to the customer mobile device 200.
It should be understood that other customer devices 108 (e.g., customer devices 108 other than a customer mobile device 200) may include applications that are similar to the third party client applications 206 and financial institution client application 208 discussed above. For example, a customer smart appliance may include an application associated with the financial institution 104 that enables the customer 102 to view the access control tower, and manage customer accounts. In another example, a customer smart speaker may include an application through which the customer 102 may modify access permissions to various entities via voice commands.
Referring to
The method 300 begins when a customer 102 is authenticated at 302. The financial institution computing system 110 receives an authentication request from the customer 102 via a computing device associated with the customer (e.g., a smartphone via a mobile banking application, a computing device via a web-based banking portal, etc.). In an alternate arrangement, the request may be received via an ATM (or other computing device allowing a user to perform financial transactions, such as receiving cash, making payments, transferring funds, etc.) associated with the financial institution 104. The authentication request indicates that an individual purporting to be the customer 102 is attempting to access the access control tower to manage access to the customer information associated with the customer 102. The authentication request includes customer authentication information (e.g., customer name, password, biometric, debit card dip in an ATM, PIN, etc.). Based on the customer authentication information, the request is either granted or denied. If the request is denied, step 302 of the method 300 does not occur, and the method 300 ends. The description of the method 300 continues for situations in which the customer 102 is authenticated.
Access to the data control tower portal is provided at 304. After the customer 102 is authenticated, the financial institution computing system 110 provides the customer 102 access to the data control tower portal. The access to the data control tower portal may be facilitated through a computing device associated with the customer (e.g., a smartphone via a mobile banking application, a computing device via a web-based banking portal, etc.). The computing device presents interactive graphical customer interfaces to the customer 102 through which the customer 102 can manage the access controls for the customer information. The data control tower portal may be part of a mobile banking application or a remote banking website associated with the financial institution 104. As noted above, in some arrangements, the access to the customer information can be managed on a payments level (e.g., managing all of the third parties that the customer 102 may engage in a transaction with accounts held by the customer 102 at the financial institution 104), on a device level (e.g., managing which customer devices 108 have access to data stored at the financial institution computing system 110), and on an application level (e.g., managing all third party client applications 206 on a customer mobile device 200 that have access to information stored at the financial institution computing system 110).

To populate the merchant listing 412, the financial institution computing system 110 may access the accounts database 124. For example, the access control circuit 122 may retrieve a customer transaction history from the accounts database 124 and identify various merchants at which the customer 102 performed transactions using the selected checking account (or other accounts held by the customer 102 at the financial institution 104). Alternatively, the customer 102 may have previously permitted the financial institution 104 to provide account information to various merchants (e.g., via the add button 426 described below). Alternatively, the financial institution computing system 110 may transmit various requests to third party systems 106 which, in response (e.g., via various APIs provided at the third party systems 106) may transmit indications to the financial institution computing system 110 that the customer 102 has provided information describing the checking account (e.g., an account number) to the third party system 106. For example, the financial institution 104 may have arrangements with various merchants. Under such arrangements, the merchants may agree to notify the financial institution 104 upon the customer providing information associated with the financial institution 104 (e.g., information pertaining to a customer account) to the merchant.
Each entry in the merchant listing 412 may include a display button 414 as well as a status indicator 416. By pressing the display button 414 associated with a particular entry, the customer may provide an input to program logic being executed by the customer mobile device 200 (e.g., program logic that is part of the financial institution client application 208) to update the interface 400 to incorporate a merchant access mechanism for the merchant of the entry. The merchant access mechanism may be incorporated into the interface 400 in a similar manner as the wallet access mechanisms 424 described below. The merchant access mechanism may identify the information pertaining to the checking account (or other account) that was provided to the merchant. In various embodiments, the merchant access mechanism may include a tokenized account number (e.g., a surrogate value for the actual account number of the checking account), an actual account number, a debit card number, and so on.
The status indicators 416 indicate the status of various access permissions that the customer 102 has provided to various merchants. In the example shown in

The wallet access mechanisms 424 may include the information that the customer 102 has permitted the payment service associated with the entry (e.g., wallet 2) of the wallet listing to access by the methods described herein. In the example shown, the wallet access mechanisms 424 present the customer 102 information pertaining to all account information that the customer 102 has permitted the payment service to access. As such, wallet access mechanisms 424 include an account number associated with both a credit account and a debit account (e.g., associated with the checking account). It should be understood that, in alternative arrangements, only wallet access mechanisms associated with the account selected via the dropdown box 410 may be shown. Additionally, different wallet access mechanisms 424 such as tokens, account names, and the like associated with the customer 102's accounts may also be shown. As shown in
The customer interface 400 also includes an add button 426 and a delete button 428. If the customer 102 interacts with the add button 426, the customer 102 can add a new merchant and/or payment service to the merchant listing 412 and/or wallet listing 418. For example, in response to the customer 102 selecting the add button 426, an additional interface is presented to the customer 102. The additional interface may include a drop down menu listing various merchants that the customer 102 may select to provide permission to access the customer information. Additionally, the interface may enable the customer 102 to identify the particular information that may be provided to the identified merchant. Upon the customer selecting a particular merchant to grant permission, the financial institution computing system 110 may update the access permissions stored in association with the account of the customer 102. As a result, upon receipt of a request from the identified merchant (e.g., via a third party system 106 over the network 126), the financial institution computing system 110 may provide the selected information to the merchant.

Similar to the interface 400 discussed above, each entry in the application listing 502 may include a display button 504 and a status indicator 506. As indicated by the bolded outline of the display button 504, the customer 102 has selected the display button 504 to cause an application access mechanism 508 to be shown. The application access mechanism 508 may include a description of the customer information to which the customer 102 has provided the application access. In the example shown, the application associated with the selected display button 504 is a calendar application and the access mechanism is the customer's bill payments. By providing the calendar application with access to the customer 102's bill payments, the customer 102 may be reminded of upcoming payments via the calendar application. As such, various events or reminders may be created by the calendar application based on the information provided by the financial institution 104. For example, upon the customer 102 providing the calendar application with access to customer bill payment information (e.g., describing the recipient of the upcoming payment, the due date, and the amount owed), the calendar application may list upcoming payments owed by the customer 102.
The customer 102 may first provide the calendar application with access to customer bill payment information by, for example, hitting the add button 426. Upon the customer 102 hitting the add button 426, the customer 102 may be brought to another interface enabling the customer 102 to identify an application to provide with access to customer financial data.

The features dropdown 604 may include a dropdown list of various forms of information maintained by the financial institution computing system 110. Using the features dropdown, the customer 102 may select the forms of information to share with the application selected via the application dropdown 602. In some arrangements, the forms of information provided by the features dropdown 604 may be dependent on the particular application selected by the customer 102. Accordingly, once the customer 102 selects an application via the application dropdown, the features dropdown 604 may be populated. In the example shown, the customer 102 has selected a calendar application via the application dropdown 602 and selected to provide the calendar application with access to information regarding customer bill payments. After providing the calendar application with such access, the customer 102 may setup the calendar application to use the bill payment information. Such a setup process is described below in relation to
The accounts dropdown 606 lists various accounts held by the customer 102 at the financial institution 104. The customer 102 may select the account to use in conjunction with the selected application and/or feature. In the example shown, the customer 102 has selected a checking account to use in conjunction with a bill payment features integrated with the calendar application. Thus, according to the processes described below, the customer 102 may setup payments via the calendar application using the selected payment account. The cancel button 608 enables the customer 102 to cancel adding an application to the listing 502 of the interface 500. In some embodiments, upon the customer 102 selecting the cancel button 608, the customer 102 is brought back to the interface 500. The submit button 610 enables the customer 102 to provide an input to the program logic being executed to the customer mobile device 200 to share the identified information with the selected application. As such, the selected information may be incorporated into the selected application to facilitate the customer 102's utilization of the selected application.

In the example shown, the interface 700 includes a device listing 702. The device listing may list various customer devices 108 that the customer 102 has registered with the financial institution 104. For example, for each customer device 108, the customer 102 may download and install an application provided by the financial institution 104, or register the customer device 108 via a website provided by the financial institution computing system 110. Upon registration and/or installation, a device identifier may be assigned to each customer device 108 by the financial institution computing system 110 and stored in association with the customer 102 (e.g., in the accounts database 124). Upon the customer 102 accessing the data control tower portal (e.g., at step 304 of the method 300), the financial institution computing system 110 may retrieve the various device identifiers stored in association with the customer 102 and transmit a device dataset to the customer mobile device 200 that is used by, for example, a mobile banking application of the customer mobile device 200 to populate the listing 702.
Various forms of customer devices 108 may populate various entries of the listing 702. Customer devices 108 may include, for example, smart phones, wearable computing devices (e.g., smart watches, smart glasses, and the like), smart speakers, vehicle computing devices, various IOT devices (e.g., thermostats, appliances, televisions, and the like), smart phones, tablets, video game consoles, and the like. Similar to the interfaces 400 and 500, each entry in the listing 702 may include a display button 704 and a status indicator 706. As shown by the bolded outline of the display button 704, the display button 704 of that particular entry has been selected by the customer 102. Selection of the display button 704 causes a device access mechanism 708 to be presented to the customer 102. Device access mechanism 708 may inform the customer 102 as to the type of information that may be accessed via the customer device 108 associated with the entry. In the example shown, the customer 102's smart speaker (e.g., an Amazon Echo®) has been provided with access to the transaction history of the customer maintained at the accounts database 124. In some embodiments, in response to the customer 102 selecting the display button 704, a plurality of potential device access mechanisms 708 may be presented to the customer 102. The device access mechanisms 708 may include all potential information that the customer may provide to the customer device 108 associated with the selected entry. Depending on the implementation, such device access mechanisms may include, amongst other things, customer account balance information, customer bill payment information, a customer transaction history, customer alerts, and customer account identifying information (e.g., account numbers, tokens, etc.).
By hitting the display button 704, the customer 102 may selectively modify the access of various customer devices 108 to various forms of information via manipulation of the status indicators 706. For example, by manipulating a status indicator 706 relating to a particular customer device 108, the customer 102 may provide an input to program logic (e.g., of a mobile banking application) being executed by the processor the customer mobile device 200. The input may cause the customer mobile device 200 to transmit a signal to the financial institution computing system 110 over the network 126 causing the financial institution computing system 110 to update customer account settings. For example, upon receipt of such a signal, the financial institution computing system 110 may update an entry of a customer device dataset maintained at the accounts database 124. The entry may include the device identifier discussed above associated with the selected customer device 108 as well as various access permissions. The entry may be updated such that, if the customer 102 were to attempt to access information from the selected customer device 108, the information would not be provided to the customer device 108 (e.g., the customer 102 may be presented with an “information unavailable” screen, or the like).
While the above examples relate to interfaces presented to the customer 102 via a customer mobile device 200, it should be understood that the customer 102 may perform similar operations with respect to several other types of customer devices 108. For example, the customer 102 may also adjust the third party systems 106 that have access to the customer financial information via a smartwatch, a smart appliance, a computing system in a vehicle of the customer 102, a smart speaker, and any other customer device 108 via applications or websites associated with the financial institution 104 implemented thereon.

The financial institution computing system 110 determines if external action is required to implement the updated access permissions or settings at 308. In some arrangements, the type of access permission or setting being updated requires that the financial institution computing system 110 transmits commands to a customer device 108 or to a third-party system 106 to implement the updated access permissions or settings. For example, if the updated access permission or setting relates to revoking or provisioning a payment token stored on a customer device 108, the financial institution computing system 110 may need to send a command to either (1) deactivate or remove the payment token from the customer device 108 or the third-party systems 106 affiliated with the mobile wallet (e.g., a third-party mobile wallet server, a payment network server that manages a token vault associated with the payment token, etc.) or (2) activate or provision the token to the mobile wallet via the customer device 108 and/or the third-party systems 106. In other arrangements, the type of access permission or setting being updated can be performed at the financial institution computing system 110 without additional commands sent to a customer device 108 or a third-party system 106. For example, if the updated access permission or setting relates to revoking a third-party's access to account balance information, the financial institution computing system 110 can perform an internal update at the financial institution computing system 110 adjusting the API permissions associated with the third-party without the need to send a command to the third-party system 106 associated with the affected third-party.
If external action is required, commands are transmitted to the appropriate recipient at 310. The financial institution computing system 110 transmits the update commands to the appropriate third-party systems 106 and/or customer devices 108. If no external action is required, the updated access permissions or settings are implemented at 312. The financial institution computing system 110 updates internal account access permissions or settings in the accounts database 124. Additionally, in some arrangements, the update to the account access permissions or settings requires both external and internal action. In such arrangements, both steps 310 and 312 are performed. Based on the updated settings and permissions, the financial institution computing system 110 facilitates the sharing (or denial of requests to access) customer information to the external systems (e.g., customer devices 108 and third-party systems 106).
In an example implementation, the customer 102 may utilize the data control portal to update payment information stored at various third party systems 106. For example, if the customer 102 gets a new account at the financial institution 104 or loses a credit card, the customer 102 may wish to update the payment information stored at the various third party systems 106. In some embodiments, upon the customer 102 updating account information stored in the accounts database 124, the financial institution computing system 110 (e.g., via the access control circuit 122) is configured to provide the updated information to the various third parties, applications, and devices to which the customer has provided access via the data control portal. For example, upon the customer changing an account number, the financial institution computing system 110 may transmit an information packet including the updated account information and a customer identifier to the third party system 106 associated with a particular merchant. Such customer identifiers may be established between the financial institution 104 and third party upon the customer providing the third party with access to information stored at the financial institution computing system 110. Thus, based on the customer identifier, the third party system 106 may identify a customer account at the third party (e.g., a shopping account) and update the customer's financial information associated with the account. Such a process may be repeated for any third party systems 106 having access to customer financial information. As such, the customer need not update account information stored at individual third party systems 106, as this can be accomplished via a single visit to the data control tower.

In an example, upon the customer 102 selecting the financial events button 806, the third party client application 206 configures the customer mobile device 200 to request customer bill payment information (e.g., via the customer mobile device 200 or via a combination of the customer mobile device 200 and a third party system 106) from the financial institution computing system 110. In response, the financial institution computing system 100 verifies that the access permissions stored in association with the customer 102 permit the requested information to be provided to the third party client application 206. If so, the requested customer financial data is provided to a computing system (e.g., the customer mobile device 200 or a third party system 106) associated with the third party client application 206.
Third party client application interface 800 further includes a financial information window 808 that includes the customer financial information received from the financial institution computing system 110. In the example shown, the financial information window 808 lists an upcoming bill payment 810. As such, through the systems and methods disclosed herein, the customer 102 is able to request and view financial data from various vantage points.
Upon the customer 102 selecting the upcoming bill payment 810, the displays presented via the third party client application 206 may be updated. Referring to
Interface 900 also includes a payment window 908. For example, the third party client application 206 rendering the interface 900 on the customer mobile device 200 may include a payments widget configured to generate transaction requests using customer account information received from the financial institution computing system 110 in accordance with various systems and methods disclosed herein. As discussed above in relation to

The entity listing 1010 lists each entity (e.g., applications and merchants) that the customer has provided any sort of access to the customer information stored at the financial institution computing system 110. The entity listing 1010 includes a plurality of selectable entries 1012. Each entry may list the number of accounts that have been connected to the associated entity. Upon the customer selecting a particular entity, a different interface may be presented to the customer 102 enabling the customer 102 to update that entity's access permissions. The device listing 1014 lists each customer device 108 having access to customer information. Similar to the entity listing 1010, the device listing 1014 includes entries 1016 associated with particular customer devices 108. While the entity listing 1010 and the device listing 1014 are shown as been separate from one another, it should be understood that, in one embodiment, the entity listing 1006 and device listing 1110 are combined into a single listing.
In various embodiments, the data control tower interface 1000 may take alternative forms. For example, in some embodiments, the generic access toggle 1002 enables the customer to view/scroll through various categories of accesses to customer information. For example, a first category box may generally include a listing of the customer's accounts or cards associated with the financial institution 104. Via this category box, the customer may select any of the cards to view various forms of information regarding the selected card (e.g., balance, general off and on status, transaction listing, etc.). An example of such an interface presented to the customer when the customer selects a card is described with respect to
In some embodiments, an additional category of accesses to customer information may include aggregators that access the customer's information at the financial institution 104 on behalf of the customer to perform functions on behalf of the customer. By selecting a particular aggregator on the data control tower interface 1000, the customer may provide inputs to disable the aggregator's access to customer information. For example, the financial institution computing system 110 may update access permissions associated with the customer information APIs 128 to deny information requests coming from third party systems 106 known to be associated with the aggregator. As such, the customer has control over the locations to which private information is disseminated. Other aggregators may utilize customer account information (e.g., account numbers) obtained from the financial institution 104 to make payments on behalf of the customer. For these types of aggregators, the data control tower interface 1000 enables the customer to quickly turn off payments made by these aggregators.
In some instances, aggregators that customers permit to access their information may provide the information to third parties (i.e., “sub-aggregators.”). Such data transfers between aggregators and sub-aggregators limit the customers' ability to control locations at which their data is stored. Beneficially, the systems and methods described herein enable customers to prevent such transfers. This is accomplished through the financial institution 104 monitoring relationships between aggregators and various sub-aggregators. For example, as part of an information sharing arrangement between an aggregator and the financial institution 104 (e.g., to establish a customer information API 128), the financial institution may require the aggregator to recurrently provide an updated listing of sub-aggregators with which they share information. Additionally, the financial institution 104 may require the aggregator to update their sharing of customer information with the sub-aggregators in response to the customer providing an input to do so via the data control tower portal described herein. Using the information provided by the aggregators under such an arrangement, the financial institution 104 may maintain a directory mapping aggregators to sub-aggregators.
In some embodiments, the directory is used to populate the data control tower interface 1000. For example, upon the customer providing an input to view an aggregator's access permissions, the customer mobile device 200 may query the directory for a listing of sub-aggregators associated with that aggregator (i.e., a listing of sub-aggregators that the selected aggregator shares information with). The listing of sub-aggregators may appear on the data control tower interface 1000 in conjunction with a set of toggle switches enabling the customer to turn off that sub-aggregator's access to the customer's information. Upon the customer turning off a sub-aggregator's access, the customer mobile device 200 (e.g., either directly or via the financial institution computing system 110) may issue a command to a third party system 106 associated with the selected aggregator to update data access permissions such that the customer information is no longer shared with the indicated sub-aggregator. Thus, the data control tower portal described herein provides the customer with very complete control of the locations at which their information is accessed.
In various embodiments, a customer may choose to restrict sharing of information in general or in relation to particular third parties, accounts, devices, applications, and/or types of information. The customer may limit sharing of information by selecting, for example, a “restrict sharing” icon in a data control tower user interface. In certain implementations, the customer may wish to prohibit a recipient of the customer's information (e.g., the third party, device, and/or application) from giving another third party, device, and/or application access to all of the information, or a subset of the information (e.g., more sensitive information, such as financial account information). In some versions, a level of sharing may be set on a spectrum ranging from “no sharing” to “all sharing allowed” using, for example, a slider that may be moved by swiping in one direction to reduce the level of sharing allowed, and an in opposing direction to increase the level of sharing allowed. In some implementations, example intermediary levels of sharing may correspond with, for example, permission to share non-personal information only, permission to share non-financial information only, permission to share anonymized information only, permission to share with particular recipients or for particular purposes, etc. In certain implementations, setting a level or type of sharing that is permitted may allow the customer to set privacy settings with a third party to control what is allowed to happen with the customer's information. In some implementations, a limitation on information sharing may limit the services or functionalities that can be provided by, for example, a third party computing system, an application, or a device. For example, restricting the sharing of financial information by a wallet application may turn off one or more accounts (e.g., debit and credit cards) listed under the functionality of the wallet application (see, e.g., 424 in

As shown, the interface 1100 includes a first account listing 1102 and a second account listing 1106. The first and second account listings 1102 and 1106 including listings 1104 and 1108 of various entities (e.g., applications, customer devices 108, third party systems 106) that the customer has provided information regarding the associated account to. As such, the customer 102 may quickly view various locations that currently have access to information associated with a particular account.

The account access toggle switch 1206 is configured to receive a customer input to permit/revoke the depicted merchant's access to information associated with the selected account. In the example shown, the customer 102 is providing the third party system 106 associated with the merchant with access to the account information. In response to the customer 102 switching the account access toggle switch 1206 to an opposing position, the customer mobile device 200 may transmit a command to the financial institution computing system 110 causing the financial institution computing system 110 to update the customer 102's access permissions to prevent the merchant from having access to the associated account information. In some embodiments, the account access toggle switch 1206 is configured to receive a customer input to temporarily inactivate the selected account.
In various embodiments, account information may be saved by a third party for use in future transactions. For example, a customer may make a purchase at a merchant using a particular account (e.g., a credit or debit card), and the merchant may save the account information so that the next time the customer makes a purchase from the merchant, the customer does not have to re-enter the account information. The customer may permit multiple online merchants to save information corresponding to several accounts for future use. The customer may subsequently change his or her mind and wish that the saved account information be deleted. This may be accomplished, in some implementations, via a user interface allowing the customer to select or toggle, for example, a “delete saved account information” option with respect to one or more entities, without having to make separate, cumbersome requests with each entity. Deleting saved account information need not necessarily, in certain implementations, restrict the entity from accessing the account information for use for a transaction in the future (without saving the account information after the transaction has completed). Rather, deleting the saved information removes the information from the entity's databases. Such removal decreases the risk that, if the entity's computing systems are hacked or the information in the databases is otherwise leaked or made public, the customer's information would be compromised. The ability to conveniently choose to delete saved information from one or more third-party databases via a control tower application, while still potentially making the information available to the third party on an as-needed basis in the future, is less cumbersome, saving time and computing resources, and enhances the security of sensitive customer information by better controlling its availability and retention.

The payments toggle switch 1314 is configured to receive a customer input to enable or disable payments via the application associated with the selected application. Thus, using the toggle switches 1304, 1306, 1310, and 1312, the customer may permit the application to access information associated with the depicted accounts. Using the payments toggle switch 1314, the customer generally enables payments to be made via the selected application. In other words, the payments toggle switch 1314 is configured to update a set of transaction rules maintained at the financial institution computing system 110 (e.g., via the account management circuit 120). As a result, if the customer disables payments via a particular application, any transaction requests received from the customer mobile device 200 via that application will be denied. As, such, the data control portal enables the customer 102 to manage particular entities' access to information as well as the manner in which that information may be used.

The method 1400 begins when fraudulent activity is detected at 1402. In some arrangements, the financial institution computing system 110 determines there is fraudulent activity associated with the customer 102 based on analyzing customer information access patterns, transaction patterns, and the like. The fraudulent activity may relate to compromised financial information (e.g., a compromised payment token associated with fraudulent purchases, a compromised account number, a compromised payment device, etc.) or misappropriation of other customer information (e.g., fraudulent access to customer information stored at the financial institution computing system 110, fraudulent downloads of data or document stored at the financial institution computing system 110, or the like). In some arrangements, the fraudulent activity can be reported by the customer 102 (e.g., via a customer device 108) if the customer 102 becomes aware of potential fraudulent activity associated with the customer information managed by the financial institution computing system 110. Similarly, in some arrangements, the fraudulent activity can be reported by the third-party associated with the fraud. For example, if a merchant becomes aware that the merchant's e-commerce system has been hacked by fraudsters, and that the customer information stored on or able to be accessed by the e-commerce system is at risk, the merchant can transmit a message to the financial institution computing system 110 indicating the fraud. In still further arrangements, the financial institution computing system 110 can identify potentially fraudulent activity from other sources, such as news agencies that report on data breaches associated with the third-party systems 106.
In an example, the financial institution computing system 110 detects an unusual pattern of activity in association with a third party client application 206. For example, customer information may be requested via a third party client application 206 at a more frequent than usual rate. In another example, the financial institution computing system 110 (e.g., via the account management circuit 120) detects an unusual pattern of activity based on customer transaction data. For example, if the account management circuit 120 receives a transaction request from a particular customer device 108 to request payment to a particular merchant, the account management circuit 120 may compare the amount of the transaction to transactions previously engaged in by the customer 102 (e.g., stored in the accounts database 124) and, if the amount differs from previous transactions engaged in by the customer 102, or if customer 102 has never engaged in a transaction at the particular merchant, detect an unusual pattern of activity.
After fraudulent activity is detected at 1402, access privileges are removed at 1404. The financial institution computing system 110 removes access privileges to the customer information in at least one of a plurality different ways. In some arrangements the financial institution computing system 110 revokes access privileges to the customer information stored at the financial institution computing system 110 (e.g., customer information stored in the accounts database 124). In other arrangements or additionally, the financial institution computing system 110 can pull customer information from the third-party system 106 or at the customer device 108 associated with the detected fraudulent activity. For example, if a payment token is associated with the fraudulent activity, the financial institution computing system 110 can prevent a third-party mobile wallet from accessing the payment token via the customer information APIs 128 and/or pull the payment token from the third-party mobile wallet computing system if the payment token was previously transmitted to the third-party mobile wallet computing system.
An alert is sent to the customer 102 at 1406. The financial institution computing system 110 transmits an alert to a customer device 108 associated with the customer 102. The alert may be any of a text message, an automated telephone call, an e-mail, an in-application push notification, or a combination thereof. The alert indicates that potential fraudulent activity was detected with respect to the customer information. In some arrangements, the alert identifies a specific third-party system 106 associated with the potential fraudulent activity. For example, the alert may indicate that a specific third-party system 106 is attempting to access a piece of customer information that is out of the norm of access patterns associated with the third-party system 106. In some arrangements, the alert is customer-interactive such that the customer 102 can reply to the alert (e.g., by interacting with a hyperlink, by interacting with embedded buttons, by replying, etc.) to indicate that the potential fraudulent activity was unauthorized or authorized.

In the example shown, the alert interface 1500 includes a description 1502 of actions taken by the financial institution computing system 110 (e.g., via the access control circuit 122) and the reason that such actions were taken. For example, the financial institution computing system 110 (e.g., via the access control circuit 122) may update the access privileges associated with a particular third party client application 206 on the customer mobile device 200, and the description 1502 may indicate as much to the customer 102. Additionally, the alert interface 1500 includes a customer action window 1504. The customer action window 1104 requests the customer 102 to verify recent transactions that caused delivery of the alert to the customer 102. Customer action window 1504 includes a first option 1506 enabling the customer 102 to view recent transactions (or information requests) and to indicate their legitimacy to the financial institution computing system 110. Customer action window 1504 also includes a deferral option 1508 enabling the customer 102 to put off the verification process to a later time.

In various embodiments, the interface 1600 is presented to the customer 102 upon the customer 102 accessing the data control tower (e.g., via performance of the steps 302 and 304 discussed above) after unusual activity with respect to customer application activity has been detected. In the example shown, the interface 1600 includes an unusual activity indication 1602 notifying the customer 102 that unusual activity has been detected with respect to a particular application listed in the application listing 502. Additionally, the customer interface 1600 includes a verification button 1604 enabling the customer 102 to view the transactions that caused the display of the unusual activity information 1302.

The customer 102 can interact with a given slider toggle 1712 to activate or deactivate a given channel's access to the selected account. For example, as shown in the user interface 1700, the debit card is active (as shown by the associated slider toggle 1712 being in the “Y” position). Accordingly, when the customer 102 attempts to use the debit card to make a payment (e.g., a purchase with a merchant) or withdraw cash from an ATM, the debit card is linked to the checking account identified in the drop down box 1708, and the payment can go through or funds can be withdrawn (assuming the checking account has the appropriate balance). If the customer 102 interacts with the slider toggle 1712 to deactivate the debit card's access to the checking account (e.g., by sliding the toggle 1712 to the “N” position), the debit card is no longer linked to the checking account. If the sliding toggle 1712 is in the “N” position and the customer 102 attempts to use the debit card at a merchant point-of-sale system or an ATM, the transaction will be denied or not processed from the checking account.
The user interface 1700 also includes an add button 1714 and a delete button 1716. If the customer 102 interacts with the add button 1714, the customer 102 can add a new channel to the listing 1710 of approved channels that are linked to the identified account. In doing so, the customer 102 may need to register the customer device 108 (e.g., by providing a device identifier, by providing a primary account number of a payment card, by logging into an application or website via the customer device 108, etc.) or the third-party system 106 (e.g., by logging into a third-party website or application associated with the third-party system 106) with the financial institution 104 to pair the channel with the financial institution computing system 110. If the customer 102 interacts with the delete button 1716, the customer 102 can select a channel in the listing 1710 to revoke access of the selected channel to the account.
In certain implementations, toggling the sliding toggle 1712 to “N” temporarily deactivates the channel's link to the account while maintaining the link for possible future reactivation and use. Deactivation of a link can be implemented, for example, by declining requests for access unless and until the link reactivated, without requiring re-registration to reestablish a new link between the channel and the account. By contrast, deletion of a channel may dissociate the account from the channel and sever the link between the account and the deleted channel, such that subsequent steps (e.g., selecting add button 1714 or otherwise registering or “signing up” anew) may be required for relinking. In some implementations, deleting a channel may include deletion or deactivation of encryption keys and access tokens such that a new key and/or access token would need to be generated if a new link is to be established.
In various embodiments, deletion of a channel may additionally or alternatively require or involve deletion of certain information with respect to the customer or the account. For example, deletion of a channel may result in deletion of customer data from the computing systems of a third party, from relevant applications, and/or from applicable devices. In some implementations, deletion of an account may result in the transmission of a scrub command, instruction, or message from the financial institution client application 208, from the financial institution computing system 110, and/or from a third-party intermediary (e.g., a computing system in a financial network, such as a computing system of Visa Inc.) to one or more third-party systems 106, customer devices 108, and/or third-party client applications 206. In some implementations, the scrub command, instruction, or message may request or require, for example, that the customer's account (e.g., a PayPal account) be deleted from third-party systems. Additionally or alternatively, the scrub command, instruction, or message may request or require, for example, that all customer data, or a specified subset thereof, be wiped from third-party systems and applications. In some implementations, if a customer selects the delete button 1716, the customer may be prompted (e.g., via another graphical user interface) about whether a scrub command is desired. The customer may be asked, for example, “Would you like your data scrubbed from third-party systems and applications?” If the customer responds affirmatively, the scrub command may be transmitted. Otherwise, if the customer does not respond affirmatively, the link may be severed without the scrub command being transmitted.

The customer 102 can interact with a given slider toggle 1806 to activate or deactivate the selected channel's access to an account associated with the slider toggle 1806. For example, as shown in the user interface 1800, the token associated with credit card 1 is active (as shown by the associated slider toggle 1806 being in the “Y” position). Accordingly, when the customer 102 attempts to make a payment with the mobile wallet (e.g., a purchase with a merchant) credit card 1 is listed as an option for the payment source of the transaction. If the customer 102 interacts with the slider toggle 1806 to deactivate the channel's access to the token associated with credit card 1 (e.g., by sliding the toggle 1806 to the “N” position), the credit card is no longer listed as a payment source in the mobile wallet (or is listed as an unavailable payment source). For example, in response to the customer 102 deactivating the channel's access, the financial institution computing system 110 may transmit a command to a third party system 106 associated with a token service provider instructing the third party system 106 to delete or temporarily deactivate the token.
Each entry in the listing 1804 also includes a default payment indicator 1808 and a delete payment button 1810. The default payment indicator 1808 is highlighted to indicate the default payment source of the mobile wallet. As shown in

The debit card specific user interface 1900 includes a linked account drop down box 1902. The linked account drop down box 1902 allows the customer 102 to change the account associated with the selected debit card. As shown in
Additionally, the user interface 1900 includes a plurality of different purchase controls 1904. Each of the purchase controls 1904 includes a toggle slider 1906 that allows the customer 102 to activate or deactivate a particular control associated with the debit card (where “Y” means the feature is active, and “N” means the feature is inactive). The purchase controls 1904 may include a point of sale control that either permits or blocks the debit card from being used at a merchant point of sale system, an ATM control that either permits or blocks the debit card from being used at an ATM, a mobile wallet control that either permits or blocks the debit card from being used in a mobile wallet, a merchant e-commerce control that either permits or blocks the debit card from being used at a merchant e-commerce site, a travel fraud detection control that turns on or off a fraud detection feature, and the like. The customer 102 can interact with a given toggle slider 1906 to activate or deactivate the associated purchase control 1904. The available purchase controls may vary by channel. In some implementations, toggling a toggle slider (or other user input) alternatively or additionally restricts the storage of customer data information following use of the information in a transaction. For example, a user input may allow the customer to prohibit customer information from being stored, such as prevention of the storage by an e-commerce merchant of debit or credit card information as a stored payment method.

Another toggle switch 2006 enables the customer to turn the selected account on and off for use in a particular mobile wallet. Thus, the account control interface 2000 may include a number of toggle switches similar to the toggle switch 2006 depending on the mobile wallets that the customer has registered for. In response to the customer switching a card off for a particular mobile wallet, the financial institution computing system 110 may contact a token service provider associated with the mobile wallet (or contact the mobile wallet provider directly) to, for example, deactivate an account token to disable access. In various embodiments, the account control customer interface 2000 includes many additional transaction controls. For example, the user may manually restrict amounts (e.g., transactions exceeding a threshold dollar value), locations (e.g., transactions in certain geographical locations, certain types of merchants such as certain retailers, etc.), times (e.g., between specified hours, on particular days of the week or month or on holidays, etc.), and the like that the card may be turned off or turned on for use in transactions. As such, not only does the financial institution client application 208 provide the customer with control over external entities that have access to customer account information, but it also provides the customer with an extensive amount of personal controls over each individual account.
In various embodiments, a control tower portal allows the customer to instruct entities (e.g., third party computing systems and applications, customer computing devices, etc.) to delete accounts, restrict the use or sharing of customer data, and/or to delete customer data (e.g., all data or data of a particular type). In some implementations, restrictions on customer data or deletion thereof may be accomplished by, for example, the financial institution computing system 110 and/or the financial institution client application 208 making an API call to third party systems 106 to have customer data restricted or deleted (or marked for subsequent restriction or deletion). The control tower portal may allow for multiple levels of deletion or scrubbing. For example, an account may be deleted, all accounts may be deleted, all accounts of a certain type may be deleted, certain customer data or customer data of particular types may be deleted, and/or all customer data may be deleted. In some implementations, only customer data received from the financial institution computing system 110 through access granted by the customer (and not received by the third party from other sources, such as directly from the customer) may be marked for deletion. Advantageously, the ability to choose to have account data deleted empowers the customer with the right to be partially or wholly forgotten.

In the example customer interface 2100, devices from which customer data have been deleted or accounts deleted are marked as having been “scrubbed” by scrubbed icon 2104. As shown in customer interface 2100, the smart vehicle has been scrubbed. The customer may wish to scrub a device if, for example, the device is lost, stolen, sold, or donated (such as a stolen car or a lost smart watch). It is noted that, as a consequence of the smart vehicle being scrubbed, granting the smart vehicle with access to customer data cannot be turned on or off (as indicated by the “--N/A--” in

A digital wallet controls section 2408 allows for control over the use of the card in transactions and funds transfers. An entities listing 2410 lists entities that are linked with the card (e.g., that may use the card for transactions, like making purchases or funds transfers, or that otherwise may access data related to the card, such as for checking account balance, confirming that the account is still open, or determining the next payment due date). Entities listing 2410 in interface 2400 includes two entities (Entity 1 and Entity 2), and each entity is provided with a corresponding remove button 2416. Selection of the remove button 2416 for an entity allows the customer to, for example, delete customer data and/or delete the account that is maintained by the entity and with which the customer's debit card is linked. For example, Entity 1 may be PayPal Holdings or Amazon.com, and the customer may have a PayPal account which uses the debit card for payments, or an account at Amazon.com which uses the debit card for purchases. In various versions, the customer may press the remove button 2416 corresponding with one of the entities to, for example, delete the user account at the entity (e.g., delete the PayPal account or Amazon.com account). Alternatively or additionally, the remove button 2416 may allow the customer to delete the customer's account data specific to the debit card ending in 1603 (e.g., the account number, expiration date, etc.) saved in a database in a computing system of PayPal, Amazon.com, or other entity, without necessarily deleting other customer data. In some implementations, the remove button 2416 causes a scrub command, instruction, or message to be generated and transmitted to the application, device, or system of the entity. In various implementations, the scrub command identifies the data to be deleted from the databases of the third-party systems 106. The scrub command may be transmitted to the third party system 106 (with an identification of the customer data to be scrubbed) directly or via a financial payment processing network.

In various implementations, interface 2700B may provide a manage payee icon 2730 and/or a hide payee icon 2732, depending on the payee or payment arrangement. Interface 2700B (as well as interfaces 2700C-2700F) also provide a home-page icon 2734 to allow the user to leave the recurring payments interfaces and return to the control tower main/home page (e.g., interface 400 of
In various embodiments, if the user selects the continue icon 2750, the user may be presented with a suggestion or recommendation to contact the payee. This may be suitable, for example, in cases in which the user has granted the payee with authorization that, by agreement, is only revocable through the payee. Even in cases in which the recurring payment may be stopped at any time through the financial institution, the user may wish to contact the payee to arrange for payment in an alternative manner (e.g., using a different account/payment vehicle). Interface 2700D provides contact information for the payee at 2756. The user may be allowed to select a cancel icon 2758 to turn back, or continue icon 2760 to proceed with the request.
In various embodiments, a user wishing to continue may, for example, be presented with a confirmation page via interface 2700E in
In various embodiments, if the stop recurring payment is confirmed (e.g., by selection of continue icon 2776), the financial institution may: cancel future payments that would have been initiated by the financial institution; decline one or more subsequent payment requests from the identified payee from the corresponding account/payment vehicle; and/or to communicate to the payee the user's desire to revoke his or her authorization for, or to otherwise cease, subsequent payments, from the identified account/payment vehicle. In some implementations, a payment authorization may be revoked via, for example, an API call from the financial institution computing system 110 to the third-party system 106 of the payee. Such an API call may include, for example: a security/access token (which may have been received from the third-party system 106) that authenticates the financial institution computing system 110; an identification of the user/payor; an identification of the account/payment vehicle; a unique identifier for the recurring payment (which may have been generated/assigned by the financial institution or the payee); details on one or more past payments; details on one or more subsequent payments; an effective date; a duration for the cessation of the recurring payment, if the user identified a duration (e.g., at 2770) or the cessation is otherwise not permanent; and/or any other relevant information.
In various embodiments, the user may additionally or alternatively be allowed to remove (hide/suppress) a payee/recurring payment from being listed. For example, in interface 2700B, a user may select hide payee icon 2732. In certain implementations, control tower may, upon detecting that the hide payee icon 2732 has been selected, present the user with, for example, interface 2700F in
In some implementations, the option to stop a recurring payment for a particular account/payment vehicle and/or for a particular payee may not be available for various reasons, and the user may thus only be provided the option to hide the recurring payment (e.g., 2732 but not 2730). Additionally or alternatively, if a recurring payment is not cancelable via control tower, the user may be advised to contact the merchant (see, e.g., interface 2700D and the contact information at 2756). In some implementations, if the user indicated a desire to have the financial institution send a request to the payee on the user's behalf to request that the payee cancel or pause a recurring payment (with the understanding that a recurring payment will be deemed to remain in effect until the payee confirms that it will stop/pause the recurring payment) but the payee does not honor the request, the user may wish to contact the payee himself/herself, and/or hide the recurring payment.

Once an automated payment is disabled or enabled, the entity holding the source account and/or the entity holding the destination account may be notified via a transmission to a computing system or device associated with the entities. In some versions, this may involve an API call to the computing system or device. For example, in some implementations, if an automated payment from Account 1c to Account 2a is disabled, an API call (or other transmission) may be sent by a computing system or device of the entity providing the “Control Tower” application (e.g., Entity 1, Entity 2, or a third-party entity), or by the user device running the application, to a computing system or device of the one or more entities holding the accounts involved in the automated payment. Alternatively or additionally to such a notification, in some implementations, a subsequent payment request may be declined. The API calls may be accompanied by security tokens and data identifying the automated payment or relevant users, entities, and/or accounts.

In example versions, a “Control Tower” application allows for control of transactions between financial institutions. For example, a user may have a Bank A checking account and a Bank B credit card. The user is able to disable automatic payment of the Bank B credit card from the Bank A checking account via Control Tower. The same Control Tower user may also have a Bank A credit card and a Bank C checking account. In addition to being able to disable automatic payment of the Bank B credit card from the Bank A checking account via Control Tower, the user is able to disable automatic payment of the Bank A credit card from the Bank C checking account via Control Tower.
In various embodiments, the Control Tower application is not a client application of any of the financial institutions involved in the transactions that are controllable via the client application. The application may be a client application of a third-party entity. In various embodiments, the Control Tower application may be a client application of one of the financial institutions involved in the inter-institutional transactions controllable via the client application.

A user may be granted rewards (i.e., rewards may be “earned” by a user from, e.g., an issuer of a credit card) through, for example, use of a payment card or other payment vehicle, and the value of the rewards may be determined based on types of transactions (e.g., purchases of certain categories of items or from certain merchants), amounts of transactions (e.g., one percent of purchases), etc. In certain embodiments, rewards may be conferred based on performance of certain activities, such as visiting a certain location, presenting a mobile device to a scanner device capable of detecting the mobile device (via, e.g., NFC), speaking certain promotional phrases (which may be detected via a microphone of a mobile device, and the sound recording, or confirmation that the phrase was recognized as having been spoken in a sound recording, may be transmitted to, e.g., a device associated with a merchant or payment card issuer), or otherwise.
In various implementations, whether a user has visited a certain location (e.g., a mall or gas station) may be determined in different ways. For example, a mobile device's location sensor (e.g., GPS device) may be used to determine a location of a mobile device (e.g., a mobile device known to be associated with an account holder) to determine, for example, that a user has walked into a store, even if no purchase is made. Alternatively or additionally, a mobile device's microphone may be used to detect ambient sounds, and the ambient sounds analyzed (e.g., by the mobile device, such as by using an application running on the mobile device, or by a remote computing system to which the ambient sounds are transmitted) to determine whether a sound signature in the ambient sounds matches (or is sufficiently close to) the sounds expected at the location being visited (e.g., a sound signature of a musical tune being broadcast over a speaker at the destination to be visited may be recognized in the ambient sounds captured using the microphone of the mobile device of the user/account holder). Similarly, a mobile device's camera or other sensor may be used, alternatively or additionally, to capture an image and the image analyzed to determine whether the image includes an item (such as a landmark, signage, a person, a feature of the landscape, etc.) expected to be located at the place to be visited for earning a reward.
In example embodiments in which virtual rewards currency is earned through performance of activities (e.g., activities other than purchases or other transactions involving the relevant payment card or other payment vehicle), an account holder may install and run an application, such as a “control tower” application, rewards application, or banking application, on his or her mobile device (e.g., a smartphone). The application may be retrieved, for example, through a digital distribution platform. The application, when running, may interface with various devices of the mobile device, such as a GPS device or other location sensors, ambient sensors like a microphone and/or a camera, and user interfaces such as a touchscreen. The mobile application may track or otherwise determine whether certain activities have been performed through interaction with the user and the devices of the mobile device. The signals from the devices (e.g., GPS, microphone, etc.) of the mobile device may be received (via, e.g., an operating system of the mobile device) and processed by the application and/or by a remote server receiving data from the mobile device. If the signals reveal that an activity that earns rewards has been performed, the value of the corresponding rewards may be determined and credited to the user's account.

In interface 3000B, the user has chosen to define a new group (as indicated by the thicker, bolded rectangle of new group icon 3004) of providers (as indicated by the thicker, bolded rectangle of providers icon 3008). A user may also choose to edit an existing group (e.g., a group previously defined via new group icon 3004). Providers may be merchants (such as online merchants and/or merchants with physical stores) or other entities through which rewards may be redeemed in exchange for something of value. The user may enter a name or other designation for the grouping (for easier reference) at name field 3010. If the user were editing a group (rather than defining a new group), the (unpopulated) name field 3008 may be a replaced with, for example, a drop-down menu or other selector allowing the user to identify which group is to be edited.
In example interface 3000B, providers may be added (e.g., via add provider icon 3012) or deleted (e.g., via delete provider icon 3014) from the grouping being defined. The user may select providers to add or delete via, for example, drop-down menus. Through an “add provider” drop-down menu (such as drop-down 3016), the user may be presented with a list of known providers via which a reward may be redeemed, and the user may select one of the providers to add to the group being defined or edited. Similarly, through a “delete provider” drop-down menu (not shown), the user may be presented with selectable providers that have previously been added to the provider group, and selected providers would be removed from the group being defined or edited. If “accounts” or “rewards” were selected, it would be accounts or rewards, respectively (rather than providers), that could be selected for addition to or deletion from a group. Once a user is done with entries, the user may choose to save the new group (or save changes to an edited group) via a save group icon 3018, after which the user may be, for example, returned to the rewards home (e.g., interface 3000A) or returned to a rewards definitions page (e.g., interface 3000B with settings reset to default so as to remove prior selections) in which a user is allowed to select whether to create or edit a group (e.g., via icon 3004 or 3006).

In certain implementations, a user may be allowed to indicate a frequency for a reward, such as a maximum number of times the reward would be applied or otherwise used. Frequency may be indicated via a frequency selector 3032, and may have a value of, for example, “1”, “2”, or another selected value “z”. The frequency value may be changed, for example, via a selection made using a drop down menu or via an input into a text box. Additionally or alternatively to frequency, the user may be allowed to provide a time window or duration during which the reward will be applied, after which the reward would be deactivated until reactivated again. Duration may be indicated via a duration selector 3034, and may have a value of, for example, an hour from activation, 24 hours from activation, the day of activation (e.g., until midnight), within a week (“Wk”) from activation, the week of activation (e.g., until midnight on the upcoming Sunday), indefinitely (e.g., until deactivated or expended), or a specified future time period (e.g., during a promotional period, during a lunch hour, etc.). The time window may be changed, for example, via a selection made using a drop down menu, via an input into a text box, or otherwise.
In various implementations, the application may indicate how far away a provider is from a location, such as the current location of the mobile device on which the application is running, from the user's known residence, or from the user's anticipated location based on the current date and time (e.g., from a user's workplace during work hours). At distance indicator 3036, interface 3000D may indicate that Provider 1, through which certain rewards may be redeemable, is a certain distance away (e.g., 0.1 miles), and a navigation selector (“Navigate”), if activated (e.g., by touching “Navigate” on a touchscreen), may assist the user in reaching the provider. For example, the navigation selector may launch a mapping or driving application and provide the address of the provider to the mapping/driving application as the user's destination, or the application may display driving directions (with or without GPS navigation) within the application without launching or interfacing with another application or device. Interface 3000D also provides a “Switch View” selector 3038 (which may include a drop down menu with alternative selectable views) to allow the user to switch from the current view (e.g., providers for a selected account as in interface 3000D) to another view (e.g., the view of interface 3000F).

The circuit may be embodied as one or more circuitry components including, but not limited to, processing circuitry, network interfaces, peripheral devices, input devices, output devices, sensors, etc. In some embodiments, a circuit may take the form of one or more analog circuits, electronic circuits (e.g., integrated circuits (IC), discrete circuits, system on a chip (SOCs) circuits, etc.), telecommunication circuits, hybrid circuits, and any other type of “circuit.” In this regard, the “circuit” may include any type of component for accomplishing or facilitating achievement of the operations described herein. For example, a circuit as described herein may include one or more transistors, logic gates (e.g., NAND, AND, NOR, OR, XOR, NOT, XNOR, etc.), resistors, multiplexers, registers, capacitors, inductors, diodes, wiring, and so on).
The “circuit” may also include one or more dedicated processors communicatively coupled to one or more dedicated memory or memory devices. In this regard, the one or more dedicated processors may execute instructions stored in the dedicated memory or may execute instructions otherwise accessible to the one or more dedicated processors. In some embodiments, the one or more dedicated processors may be embodied in various ways. The one or more dedicated processors may be constructed in a manner sufficient to perform at least the operations described herein. In some embodiments, the one or more dedicated processors may be shared by multiple circuits (e.g., circuit A and circuit B may comprise or otherwise share the same processor which, in some example embodiments, may execute instructions stored, or otherwise accessed, via different areas of memory). Alternatively or additionally, the one or more dedicated processors may be structured to perform or otherwise execute certain operations independent of one or more co-processors. In other example embodiments, two or more processors may be coupled via a bus to enable independent, parallel, pipelined, or multi-threaded instruction execution. Each processor may be implemented as one or more general-purpose processors, application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), digital signal processors (DSPs), or other suitable electronic data processing components structured to execute instructions provided by memory. The one or more dedicated processors may take the form of a single core processor, multi-core processor (e.g., a dual core processor, triple core processor, quad core processor, etc.), microprocessor, etc.
Any foregoing references to currency or funds are intended to include fiat currencies, non-fiat currencies (e.g., precious metals), and math-based currencies (often referred to as cryptocurrencies). Examples of math-based currencies include Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, and the like.
It should be noted that although the diagrams herein may show a specific order and composition of method steps, it is understood that the order of these steps may differ from what is depicted. For example, two or more steps may be performed concurrently or with partial concurrence. Also, some method steps that are performed as discrete steps may be combined, steps being performed as a combined step may be separated into discrete steps, the sequence of certain processes may be reversed or otherwise varied, and the nature or number of discrete processes may be altered or varied. The order or sequence of any element or apparatus may be varied or substituted according to alternative embodiments. Accordingly, all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of the present disclosure as defined in the appended claims.
The foregoing description of embodiments has been presented for purposes of illustration and description.
