Method for performing transactional communication using a universal transaction account identifier assigned to a customer
Abstract:
Methods, systems, computer data signals, recordable media and methods of doing business for wireless or wired network communication between network resources each having a unique telephone number associated therewith, including, among other feature, forming a primary number file (PNF) comprising a uniform telephone address (UTA) which has a telephone number associated with a network resource.User-friendly and seamless payment procedure is provided wherein payer or payee only need to know accordingly the payee or payer UTA number to allow transaction and seamless payment routing between payer and payee bank accounts. Unified approach is allowed wherein financial institution also are networking Targets having UTA numbers assigned for them and the financial institution can receive Fund Transfer Agreement or Deal Agreement from networking Targets, authenticate payer using particular Target UTA and apply the payment from this particular UTA bank account.Internet Settlement Architecture provides unique implementation of a clearing routes ranging by using cost command for EEP; and the ranging in turn allows the routing management by using cost and time user preferences, thus allowing operational cost management implementation for financial institutions and their respective customers using cost tracing command. On-line, multi-tier and multi-route clearing infrastructure and payment services provide seamless and transparent payment cost and payment routing management, enabling End-to-End payment Straight Through Processing (STP). Network specific identifiers (such as UTA, ZUTA and others) and the network specific software user interfaces (phone user interface and only numeric keyboards) may be used to navigate and manage the Internet Settlement Infrastructure enabling seamless payment addressing and clearing. Users are enabled to address payments without a need to know payee's banking details and payment routing information providing End-to-End account details resolution and Straight Through Processing for payment clearing services. Payment processing is diverted into online communication. Extensive use of the PKI trusted sources enables trusted financial account mappings allowing secure payment and clearing environment. The use of Attribute Certificates containing only payer network address mapped to its DCF network address allows filling in the DNS system database with the trusted mapping information avoiding the need to disclose the real banking details of the payee to a public. The use of existing DNS technology for resolution of trusted mapping information allows seamless gathering of banking routing information enabling on-line straight through processing.
