Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for shared authentication for limited use of an associated account based on user location and connected devices. A user may own a location where another user may visit or rent. The user may have a payment account that may be used with merchants to purchase items that are associated with the location or offered with use of the location. The user may set up the payment account to have a shared authentication mechanism with other users that utilize the location to allow the other users to pay for items using the payment account. The authentication mechanism may be a credential that may be pushed to a device of one or more of the other users when the other users are at or nearby the location or may be information of the other users that may be matched during transaction processing.

Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for automatic authentication for a user with a service provider during a voice data connection to a merchant. A user may place a voice call to an entity, for example, through a plain old telephone service (POTS) or through voice over IP. The voice call may be detected by a service provider, which may determine whether the entity receiving the voice call requires authentication of the user during the voice call. The service provider may further determine whether the entity requires authentication of the user for use of an account with the service provider. The service provider may communicate information used to authenticate the user to the entity during the voice call. Additionally, the service provider may generate an authentication mechanism for the payment account, which may be used to authenticate use of the payment account by the user during the voice call.

Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for checkout line processing based on merchant employee familiarity with communication device processes. A user may visit a merchant location and utilize a device payment application of a mobile device for a payment during transaction processing. The merchant's device may determine which merchant employees are most familiar with processing payments using the application, and direct the user to those merchant employees. Where the user has already select one of the merchant employees, but the merchant employee is unfamiliar with the application, the merchant's device may load payment processing instructions, walkthroughs, and interactive interfaces to assist in payment processing. Moreover, based on the merchant employee's familiarity with other payment instruments, the merchant's device may suggest another payment instrument for the user to use during payment processing.

Abstract: A portable electric vehicle support equipment (EVSE) kit is provided consisting of an EVSE cord and an interface tool providing external access to a serial port through the control pilot conductor.

Abstract: Prompting user confirmation of an action in a display window on a display of a mobile electronic device including displaying a pair of soft key icons, receiving a request to initiate an action from a user and displaying a confirmation message to confirm that a user wishes to proceed with the action. When the confirmation message is displayed, the pair of soft key icons are modified to create a pair of updated soft key icons. The receiving of the request may include detection of a soft key event. The updated soft key icons provide a first response and a second response to the confirmation message for selection by the user. The soft key icons and updated soft key icons may be displayed at the bottom portion of the display in a manner that does not obstruct the display window.

Abstract: A vibrating headset capable of generating a vibration of variable operational characteristics in the earpiece of the vibrating headset is disclosed. The vibrating headset may include one or more earpieces, each of which includes a speaker and a vibrator mechanism, wherein the vibrator mechanism receives a vibration input signal which is distinct from the audio input signal received by the speaker and defines the variable operational characteristics of the vibration to be generated by the vibrator mechanism. A gaming apparatus including a gaming device and a vibrating headset communicably coupled to the gaming device for generating vibrations of variable operational characteristics in response to receiving a vibration input signal from the gaming device is also provided. Finally, a method of creating vibrations defined by at least one variable operational characteristic in an earpiece of a vibrating headset is provided.
