Abstract

The invention is an electronic payment system designed to capture payments from customers in an ecommerce environment, including on-line via a browser, a mobile browser or a mobile application, which can support any card payment method but can also integrate with e Wallets such as Pay Pal and Google checkout, and which enhances security for all parties using two factor two channel authentication and card fragmentation solutions, and which simplifies and enhances the payment process for shoppers and consumers.

Claims

1-72. -72. (canceled)

73. A system for verifying electronic transactions, the system comprising:

a computer; and

a payment gateway server,

the computer operable by a user to initiate a purchasing transaction using a first application running on the computer, the purchasing transaction being processed by the payment gateway server in communication with the first application running on the computer,

wherein the payment gateway server is operable to communicate with a second application running on the computer, the second application running on the computer operable by the user to confirm that the purchasing transaction was initiated by the user,

wherein the computer is a mobile device, and when the user adds a card to their account associated with the payment gateway server the second application is operable to connect to the card Issuer and, using an authentication process with the card Issuer, the mobile device is issued with a certificate by the issuer allowing the user to use the card for future transactions via the mobile device, and wherein the certificate is only stored on the mobile device and is unique to the mobile device.

74. The system of claim 73, wherein when executing a new transaction the mobile device contacts the Issuer using the certificate, after entering the application PIN, requesting authority to proceed with the payment, the device sends a signed request, signed using the certificate, including merchant and payment details, the Issuer responds with a one time use, time limited, Payment Token for the payment, the token is passed to the payment gateway server which authenticates the token with the Issuer to check that it is valid, and if valid the payment is processed.

75. The system of claim 74, wherein, the token is passed to the payment processor which can also authenticate the token with the Issuer before processing the payment for added security.

76. A system for verifying electronic transactions, the system comprising:

a first computer;

a second computer; and

a payment gateway server,

the first computer operable by a user to initiate a purchasing transaction, the purchasing transaction being processed by the payment gateway server in communication with the first computer,

wherein the payment gateway server is operable to communicate with the second computer, the second computer operable by the user to confirm that the purchasing transaction was initiated by the user,

wherein the second computer is a mobile device, and when the user adds a card to their account associated with the payment gateway server the second computer is operable to connect to the card Issuer and, using an authentication process with the card Issuer, the mobile device is issued with a certificate by the issuer allowing the user to use the card for future transactions via the mobile device, and wherein the certificate is only stored on the mobile device and is unique to the mobile device.

77. The system of claim 76, wherein when executing a new transaction the mobile device contacts the Issuer using the certificate, after entering the application PIN, requesting authority to proceed with the payment, the device sends a signed request, signed using the certificate, including merchant and payment details, the Issuer responds with a one time use, time limited, Payment Token for the payment, the token is passed to the payment gateway server which authenticates the token with the Issuer to check that it is valid, and if valid the payment is processed.

78. The system of claim 77, wherein the token is passed to the payment processor which can also authenticate the token with the Issuer before processing the payment for added security.

79. A system for splitting/dividing up primary account numbers (PAN) wherein one part of the PAN is held on a portable device and another part of the PAN is held by a gateway server.

80. The system of claim 79, wherein the gateway server is a Mobay Payment Gateway server.

81. The system of claim 79, wherein when a shopper first enters a new Card number into the portable device the Card number is encrypted using a key provided by the gateway server.

82. The system of claim 81, wherein the encrypted card number is split into two fragments, one stored on the gateway server and the other stored on the mobile device.

83. The system of claim 82, wherein during a payment the fragment of the PAN and or the Key is sent to the gateway server to reconstruct the PAN during a payment.

84. The system of claim 83, wherein the reconstructed PAN is then sent to a Payment Processor (PP) to complete the Payment.

85. The system of claim 81, wherein the complete card number in encrypted form is never stored at the gateway server.
