Real-time matching system for payment service transactions
The patent application (Publication Number: US20240037521A1) describes a system and method for cross-matching data from different real-time database systems. The system includes a transaction processor that receives data sets for transactions from merchants and processes payments based on the data sets. The system also features a decision engine with buffers for queuing incoming data and matching logic to determine if two transactions are the same based on transaction times. An operations module interfaces with an offers engine and a payment service to manage data flow and generate user interface code incorporating offer data.
The method outlined in the patent involves receiving datasets related to transactions from a payment service and a data processor, matching these transactions in real-time at the decision engine, and sending transaction data to an offers engine via an operations module. The method also includes storing datasets in an activity database, queuing data in buffers, and managing data flow based on transaction times. The decision engine utilizes matching logic and a FIFO controller to ensure efficient processing and matching of transactions. Overall, the system and method aim to streamline the matching of transactions across different systems and provide users with relevant offers based on their transaction history.
