What is claimed is: 1. A method for selecting an electronic payment credential to communicate to a merchant, comprising: receiving, by an aggregating wallet backend comprising a computer processor and from an aggregating wallet application or an aggregating wallet website on a browser executed by a mobile electronic device, an indication that a transaction at point of transaction device for a merchant is to be conducted using a mobile payment application also executed on the mobile electronic device; initiating, by the aggregating wallet backend, payment for the transaction with the mobile payment application; receiving, at the aggregating wallet backend, a payment account for the transaction from the mobile payment application; receiving, at the aggregating wallet backend, a plurality of electronic payment credentials for the payment account comprising a token, a cryptogram, and a merchant-specific account number; receiving, at the aggregating wallet backend, an electronic payment credential acceptance capability for the point of transaction device, wherein the point of transaction device accepts only certain electronic payment credentials; determining, by the aggregating wallet backend and from the electronic payment credential acceptance capability that the point of transaction device accepts the merchant-specific account number; and executing a transaction using the merchant-specific account number. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the merchant-specific account number is received from a financial institution associated with the payment account. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aggregating wallet backend receives the electronic payment credential acceptance capability for the point of transaction device based on a location of the point of transaction device. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aggregating wallet backend receives the electronic payment credential acceptance capability for the merchant from a database of merchant payment credential acceptance capabilities. 5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: communicating the merchant-specific account number to the point of transaction device for the merchant prior to executing the transaction. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the merchant-specific account number is subject to a restriction. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the restriction comprises an expiration time and/or a geographical restriction. 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the merchant-specific account number is also specific to the payment account. 9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the merchant-specific account number is associated with a plurality of merchants, and an expiration date and/or a Card Validation Value (CVV) for the merchant-specific account number is specific to the merchant. 10. A system, comprising: a mobile electronic device comprising at least one computer processor and executing an aggregating wallet application and a mobile payment application; and an aggregating wallet backend comprising a computer application configured to: receive from the aggregating wallet backend, an indication that a transaction at a point of transaction device for a merchant is to be conducted using the mobile payment application; initiate payment for the transaction with the mobile payment application on the mobile electronic device; receive a payment account for the transaction from the mobile payment application; receive a plurality of payment credentials for the payment account comprising a token, a cryptogram and a merchant-specific account number; receive an electronic payment credential acceptance capability for the point of transaction device, wherein the point of transaction device accepts only certain electronic payment credentials; determine from the electronic payment credential acceptance capability that the point of transaction device accepts the merchant-specific account number; and execute a transaction using the merchant-specific account number. 11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the merchant-specific account number is received from a financial institution associated with the payment account. 12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the aggregating wallet backend is further configured to receive the electronic payment credential acceptance capability for the point of transaction device based on a location of the point of transaction device. 13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the aggregating wallet backend is further configured to receive the electronic payment credential acceptance capability for the merchant from a database of merchant payment credential acceptance capabilities. 14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the merchant-specific account number is subject to at least one restriction. 15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the aggregating wallet backend is further configured to communicate the merchant-specific account number to the point of transaction device for the merchant prior to executing the transaction. 16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the aggregating wallet backend is configured to send the merchant-specific account number to the merchant. 17. The system of claim 10 , wherein the merchant-specific account number is associated with a plurality of merchants, and an expiration date and/or a Card Validation Value (CVV) for the merchant-specific account number is specific to the merchant.
