Abstract

Methodologies, systems, and computer-readable media provided for a system for generating personalized electronic documents and verifying user identity are discussed. The system receives user identification data and check information from a user application. The check information is validated by the issuer of the check. The system transmits a notification to the user application that includes a machine readable code. The user application presents the machine readable code and the user identification data to a check-in module and automatic processing of the check is initiated.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A system for generating personalized electronic documents, verifying user identity for financial services transactions, and autonomously authorizing transactions, the system comprising:
(i) an application executing on a mobile electronic device associated with a user, the application configured to:
(a) utilize a camera application on the mobile electronic device to capture an image of a check for verification and cashing;
(b) extract check information from the image of the check, the check information including an account number, a routing number, a check cashing amount, and a payee; and
(c) create an online account associated with the user that includes user identification data used to verify user identity;

(ii) a broker computing system configured to communicate with the mobile electronic device over a network and execute a user identification module that when executed:
(a) receives from the application executing on the mobile electronic device and via the network, the user identification data and the check information, including the check cashing amount extracted from the image of the check;
(b) validates the check using the check information extracted from the image; and
(c) transmits, via the network, an approval notification to the mobile electronic device in response to the validation of the check information, the notification including a machine-readable code linked to the validation of the check information indicating that the user is eligible to receive cash according to the check cashing amount extracted from the image of the check;
(d) stores the check information in a database of the broker computing system; and

(iii) a computing device located in proximity to a machine readable code reader, the computing device configured to execute a user check-in module that when executed:
(a) scans, via the machine readable code reader, the machine-readable code transmitted in the notification and displayed on the mobile electronic device;
(b) receives the user identification data associated with the machine-readable code;
(c) retrieves the check information associated with the user identification data, including the check cashing amount from the database of the broker computing system; and
(d) initiates automatic processing of a check cashing transaction based on the check information.

2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a user account module configured to store the user identification data and the check information.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the machine readable code includes a one-dimensional barcode, a two-dimensional barcode, a matrix barcode, or a two-dimensional mobile response code.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the notification includes a confirmation number for the transaction.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein a digital signature associated with the user is stored in a database and retrieved to process the check associated with the user identification data and the check information.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processing of the check cashing transaction is performed by a third party entity separate from an entity controlling operation of the broker computing system.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the user identification data comprises transaction information, sender information, photo identification, and signature.

8. A method for generating personalized electronic documents, verifying user identity, and autonomously authorizing financial services transactions, the method comprising:
utilizing, by an application executing on a mobile electronic device associated with a user, a camera application on the mobile electronic device to capture an image of a check for verification and cashing;
extracting, by the application, check information from the image of the check, the check information including an account number, a routing number, a check cashing amount, and a payee;
creating, by the application, an online account associated with the user that includes user identification data used to verify user identity;
receiving, by a user identification module of a broker computing system and via a network, from the application executing on the mobile electronic device the user identification data and the check information, including the check cashing amount extracted from the image of the check;
validating, by the user identification module, the check using the check information extracted from the image of the check;
transmitting, by the user identification module and via the network, a notification to the mobile electronic device in response to the validation of the check information, the notification including a machine readable code linked to the validation of the check information indicating that the user is eligible to receive cash according to the check cashing amount extracted from the image of the check;
storing the check information in a database of the broker computing system;
scanning, via a machine readable code reader of a computing device configured to communicate with the broker system, the machine-readable code transmitted in the notification and displayed on the mobile electronic device;
receiving, by a user check-in module of the computing device, the user identification data associated with the machine-readable code;
retrieving, by the user check-in module, the check information associated with the user identification data, including the check cashing amount from the database of the broker computing system; and
initiating, by the user check-in module, automatic processing of a check cashing transaction based on the check information.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising storing, via a user account module, the user identification data and the check information.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the machine readable code includes a one-dimensional barcode, a two-dimensional barcode, a matrix barcode, or a two-dimensional mobile response code.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the notification includes a confirmation number for the transaction.

12. The method of claim 8 , wherein a digital signature associated with the user is stored in a database and retrieved to process the check associated with the user identification data and the check information.

13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the processing of the check cashing transaction is performed by a third party entity separate from an entity controlling operation of the broker computing system executing the user identification module.

14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the user identification data comprises transaction information, sender information, photo identification, and signature.

15. A non-transitory machine readable medium storing instructions executable by a processing device, wherein execution of the instructions causes the processing device to implement a method for generating personalized electronic documents, verifying user identity, and autonomously authorizing financial services transactions, the method comprising:
creating, at a broker computing system, an online account associated with a user that includes user identification data;
receiving, via a network, by a user identification module, and from an application executing on a mobile electronic device, the user identification data and check information, including account number, a routing number, a check cashing amount, and a payee from an image of a check;
validating, by the user identification module, the check using the check information extracted from the image of the check;
transmitting, by the user identification module and via the network, a notification to the mobil
