International Classification:

G06Q 20/40

US Classification:

705 44

Abstract:

Embodiments of the invention relate to systems, methods, and computer program products for providing a financial document processing system. The system receives an image of a financial document, such as a check, and identifies at least a transaction amount from the financial document. Then the system determines account information associated with the financial document. The system may identify a routing and account number on the financial document or identify the document based on a name on the document. Once the transaction amount and account information are known, the system determines a prospective balance for a financial account based on the account information and the transaction amount. If there are funds at least equal to the transaction amount in the financial account, the system validates the transactions. In some embodiments, the system also immediately updates the balance of the account and/or offers to complete the transaction.

Abstract:

According to one embodiment, an apparatus stores a user account and a points balance associated with the user account. The apparatus further determines a geographic location of a user associated with the user account. The apparatus then communicates, based at least in part upon the geographic location, an offer for a product. The produce may be associated with a points price and the points balance is at least equal to the points price. The apparatus then receives a signal indicating acceptance of the offer. The signal may be associated with the user account. The apparatus then communicates a second signal indicating that the user can receive the product.
