1. A system to manage merchant-related program identifier data, comprising:

  • a storage device comprising a secure element operable to store program data comprising a plurality of program identifiers, each of the program identifiers associated with a service provider identifier (ID), each service provider ID comprising a generic component of the servicer provider ID and a specific component of the servicer provider ID, the generic component and the specific component combining to form the service provider ID; and

    a processor communicatively coupled to the storage device, wherein the processor executes application code instructions that are stored in the storage device to cause the system to;

    receive a first service provider ID from a merchant computing device, the first service provider ID comprising a first generic component of the first service provider ID and a first specific component of the first service provider ID, the first generic component and the first specific component combining to form the first service provider ID;

    determine that the first service provider ID comprising both the first generic component and the first specific component received from the merchant computing device does not match one service provider ID associated with the plurality of program identifiers stored in the storage device;

    in response to determining that the first service provider ID comprising both the first generic component and the first specific component does not match one service provider ID associated with the plurality of program identifier stored in the storage device, compare the first generic component of the first service provider ID received from the merchant computing device to each generic component of each service provider ID associated with the program identifiers stored in the storage device;

    determine that the first generic component of the first service provider ID matches one generic component of one or more service provider identifiers associated with at least one of the plurality of program identifiers stored in the storage device;

    identify the at least one program identifier that comprises the one generic component of the one or more service provider identifiers that match the first generic component of the first service provider ID; and

    transmit the at least one identified program identifier to the merchant computing device, the at least one identified program identifier comprising the one generic component of the service provider identifiers that matches the first generic component of the first service provider ID.
