  • Publication number: 20220232095
    Abstract: A computer program product, system, and method for accessing an application from different locations to gather geo-location specific data via pre-provisioned network endpoints in the different locations, the method includes receiving a request from a client application to access an application via a particular geographical location to collect geo-location specific data via a pre-provisioned network endpoint in the particular location, selecting a route to send traffic via the particular geographical location using the pre-provisioned network endpoint, establishing a virtual circuit to route the request via a network endpoint, sending the request for execution to the network endpoint, collecting responses received from the network endpoint from accessing the application, and sending the responses to the client application.

  • Publication number: 20210256521
    Abstract: A method comprises identifying, by a first machine-learning (ML) model, cardholders who have purchased an international travel reservation, the first ML model using as input payment transaction records and travel itinerary records retrieved from one or more databases. For each of the identified cardholders, the first ML model identifies a payment card used to purchase the international travel reservation, and a corresponding destination country and a departure date. A second ML model identifies the payment cards of the identified cardholders having low probability of being used for a cross-border transaction based at least in part on historical payment transactions. For the cardholders associated with low probability cross-border cards, an action is initiated, including providing an offer to the identified cardholders of the low probability cross-border cards, wherein the offer incentivizes use the low probability cross-border cards in the destination country prior to, or during, the international travel.

  • Patent number: 10902430
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate in part to determining a testing model and providing a testing transaction score for transactions. The testing transaction score may indicate a likelihood that the transaction is a testing transaction. One embodiment of the invention discloses a method comprising receiving a first authorization message for a first transaction using an account, determining a testing transaction score for the first transaction using a testing model, and determining that the first transaction is a testing transaction based on the testing transaction score, wherein the testing transaction score for the first transaction is used for declining a second transaction using the same account conducted after the first transaction.

  • Publication number: 20200202315
    Abstract: Described are systems and methods for identifying and communicatively targeting financial devices to promote recurring transactions. The method includes receiving, with at least one processor, financial device data for a plurality of transactions over a sample time period, the financial device data including transaction time, transaction count, transaction amount, merchant category, transaction type, or any combination thereof. The method also includes identifying, with at least one processor, at least one target financial device from the financial device data based at least partially on at least one of the parameters having a value in a specified range for the at least one parameter. The method further includes receiving, with at least one processor, identification data of at least one target financial device holder, and automatically generating and transmitting at least one communication to the at least one target financial device holder.

  • Publication number: 20200175607
    Abstract: Segmentation algorithms may operate on vast quantities of data to segment the data into a useful data the model. The segmentation data model may then be applied to additional data that may be received in real time. Further, the real time data may be given a score based on the segmentation model and the desires of the user. The segmentation of the data and the score may be returned to a user and the user may determine if additional actions make logical sense based on the score and segmentation.
