Abstract

A system, method, and article of manufacture for generating a digital pass is disclosed. The method may comprise retrieving a plurality of identity attributes, and grouping a subset of identity attributes in the plurality of identity attributes to generate at least one digital pass. The method may further comprise grouping a subset of static identity attributes and a subset of dynamic identity attributes to generate a digital pass.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

authenticating, by a computer-based system for facilitating a universal login and based upon a digital pass comprising a group of identity attributes, a digital pass user to a digital pass account based upon a first identity attribute comprising first login information;

retrieving, by the computer-based system, a second identity attribute comprising second login information associated with a second system;

transmitting, by the computer-based system and to the second system, the second login information wherein the second login information permits the second system to authenticate the digital pass user to a user account hosted by the second system;

personalizing, by the computer-based system, a webpage for the digital pass user based upon a third identity attribute associated with the digital pass;

receiving, by the computer-based system, a transaction request that includes a uniform resource locator (URL) associated with the second system; and

transmitting, by the computer-based system and to the second system by way of the URL, a confirmation that the transaction request has been approved.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising authenticating, by the computer-based system, the digital pass user to the digital pass account through a webpage hosted by the second system.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the second system transmits, to the computer-based system, data associated with the user account hosted by the second system,

4. The method of claim 3, wherein the data transmitted by the second system includes a uniform resource locator associated with the second system.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein a fourth identity attribute is at least one of a product size, a product style, and a product color.

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising personalizing, by the computer-based system, the webpage for the digital pass user based upon an item of inventory available for purchase by way of the second system.

7. (canceled)

8. An article of manufacture including a non-transitory, tangible computer readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a computer-based system for facilitating a universal login based upon a digital pass comprising a group of identity attributes, cause the computer-based system to perform operations comprising:

authenticating, by the computer-based system and based upon a digital pass comprising a group of identity attributes, a digital pass user to a digital pass account based upon a first identity attribute comprising first login information;

retrieving, by the computer-based system, a second identity attribute comprising second login information associated with a second system;

transmitting, by the computer-based system and to the second system, the second login information, wherein the second login information permits the second system to authenticate the digital pass user to a user account hosted by the second system;

personalizing, by the computer-based system, a webpage for the digital pass user based upon a third identity attribute associated with the digital pass;

receiving, by the computer-based system, a transaction request that includes a uniform resource locator (URL associated with the second system; and

transmitting, by the computer-based system and to the second system by way of the URL, a confirmation that the transaction request has been approved.

9. The article of claim 8, further comprising authenticating, by the computer-based system, the digital pass user to the digital pass account through a webpage hosted by the second system.

10. The article of claim 8, wherein the second system transmits, to the computer-based system, data associated with the user account hosted by the second system.

11. The article of claim 10, wherein the data transmitted by the second system includes a uniform resource locator associated with the second system.

12. The article of claim 8, wherein a fourth identity attribute is at least one of:

a product size, a product style, and a product color.

13. The article of claim 8, further comprising personalizing, by the computer-based system, a webpage for the digital pass user based upon an item of inventory available for purchase by way of the second system.

14. (canceled)

15. A system comprising:

a processor for facilitating a universal login based upon a digital pass comprising a group of identity attributes;

a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the processor,

the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising;

authenticating, by the processor and based upon a digital pass comprising a group of identity attributes, a digital pass user to a digital pass account based upon a first identity attribute comprising first login information;

retrieving, by the processor, a second identity attribute comprising second login information associated with a second system;

transmitting, by the processor and to the second system, the second login information, wherein the second login information permits the second system to authenticate the digital pass user to a user account hosted by the second system;

personalizing, by the processor, a webpage for the digital pass user based upon a third identity attribute associated with the digital pass;

receiving, by the processor, a transaction request that includes a uniform resource locator (URL) associated with the second system; and

transmitting, by the processor and to the second system by way of the URL, a confirmation that the transaction request has been approved.

16. The system of claim 15, further comprising authenticating, by the processor, the digital pass user to the digital pass account through a webpage hosted by the second system.

17. The system of claim 15, wherein the second system transmits, to the computer-based system, data associated with the user account hosted by the second system.

18. The system of claim 17, wherein the data transmitted by the second system includes a uniform resource locator associated with the second system.

19. The system of claim 15, wherein a fourth identity attribute is at least one of:

a product size, a product style, and a product color.

20. The system of claim 15, further comprising personalizing, by the processor, the webpage for the digital pass user based upon an item of inventory available for purchase by way of the second system.
