Application: Mobile web browser authentication and checkout using a contactless card (Patent ID: US20230419295A1)
The patent filed by Capital One Financial Corp. describes a method for processing transactions securely using a mobile device. The method involves a merchant web page generating a URI directed to an application, which is launched by the mobile OS upon selection. The application authenticates login credentials, associates user and session parameters with an account, receives a cryptogram from a contactless card, and verifies it with a server. The web browser then refreshes the page with a virtual card number (VCN) for transaction processing. The process ensures secure and efficient transaction processing on mobile devices.
The patent also includes claims related to associating user and session parameters with the account, generating VCNs based on authentication and verification, and receiving notifications for pending transactions. It further details the process of determining if the application is installed on the device, downloading and installing it if necessary, and displaying additional account information on the merchant web page. These claims highlight the comprehensive nature of the method, covering various aspects of secure transaction processing on mobile devices and ensuring a seamless user experience.
