First Claim
1. An apparatus for use in a token-based transaction system, wherein the apparatus converts a virtual value token into a local currency to complete transactions, the apparatus comprising:
- a memory;
a computing processor; and
a module stored in the memory, said module comprising instruction code executable by one or more computing processors, and configured to;
present a digital wallet management interface to a mobile device of a user, the mobile device of the user comprising a global positioning system, and the digital wallet management interface configured to;
present at least one original virtual value token having a set of transaction limitations and at least one digital wallet associated with the original virtual value token; and
present a travel toggle switch configured for graphical manipulation by the user between at least a first position and a second position, wherein the first position corresponds to the user not traveling and the second position corresponds to the user traveling;
in response to the travel toggle switch moving from the first position to the second position, deactivate and destroy the original virtual value token;
in response to the travel toggle switch moving from the first position to the second position, issue a new virtual value token having a new set of transaction limitations to the at least one digital wallet, wherein the virtual value of the new virtual value token is an amount available to use in the transactions, and wherein the virtual value is a market value of an underlying asset that varies in value;
determine that the user is initiating a transaction comprising a transaction amount using the new virtual value token, wherein the apparatus receives the new virtual value token during initiation of the transaction but prior to completion of the transaction;
receive a geographical location of the mobile device of the user from the global positioning system of the mobile device of the user;
determine a local currency for the transaction based on a comparison of the geographical location of the mobile device of the user and a database comprising local currencies associated with geographical locations, wherein the local currency is different from the known currency;
determine a conversion rate between the local currency and the known currency;
convert at least a portion of the market value comprising the virtual value of the new virtual value token into a converted amount in the local currency based on the transaction amount in the local currency and the conversion rate, wherein the converted amount is at least as much as the transaction amount; and
complete the transaction using the converted amount of the new payment token in the local currency.

Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to systems, methods, and computer program products for a system for providing a virtual value token. The system, method, and computer program product are configured to receive a request for a token associated with a virtual value; generate the token associated with the virtual value, wherein the virtual value is funded via a known currency; determine that a user is initiating a transaction using the token; determine a local currency for the transaction; convert, using a computing device processor, at least a portion of the virtual value into a converted amount in the local currency; and complete the transaction using the converted amount of the token. The virtual value may be based on a defined value, such as a known amount on a specific day, or a relative value, such as the current value of an underlying asset.
