Abstract:
Access devices like credit cards and/or check cards have enhanced security features that allow a customer to control circumstances under which their account is accessed. Fraudsters may try to access the account without the knowledge of the consumer set controls, the system takes remedial action with reduced instances of false positives. An account is established for an account holder through a central entity, e.g. an issuer. At least one user is associated with the access device that is established for one or more transactions. Use of the access devices is defined by a set of rules defined by the central entity and are controllable by the customer, including comprising any of the account holder and the user of the account. The customer inputs, controls, and/or updates parameters associated with the customer-controllable rules. Subsequent authorization of the access devices is controlled based on the customer input and other controls.
