Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods and systems for a browser extension system are disclosed. In some embodiments, a browser extension server includes a communication device configured to communicate with a first computing device executing a browser extension application and a web browser application and a second computing device executing an authentication application. The browser extension server further includes a memory storing instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform operations. The operations may include receiving from the first computing device an indication of a financial service account associated with the first computing device, detecting a payment field in a web page provided by the computing device through the web browser application and, in response, generating a secure token mapped to the financial service account. The operations may further include sending the second computing device an authentication request, receiving an authentication response, and populating the payment field with the secure token.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A system comprising: one or more processors; and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media having instructions recorded thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes operations comprising: detecting, via a browser extension application, a field requiring population in a web page associated with a merchant; providing, to a server system via the browser extension application, an indication of the field requiring population; receiving, from the server system via the browser extension application, an alphanumeric code related to the field requiring population; and automatically populating, via the browser extension application, the alphanumeric code in the field. 2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise: overlaying, via the browser extension application, a prompt over the web page, the prompt requesting a user to confirm the field requiring population should be populated; receiving user confirmation via the prompt; and automatically submitting the alphanumeric code in the field in response to receiving the user confirmation. 3 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the prompt comprises one or more buttons for selection. 4 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the user confirmation is received via the one or more buttons of the prompt. 5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the alphanumeric code is associated with a coupon. 6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the alphanumeric code is a token. 7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the alphanumeric code comprises unsecured data. 8 . A method, implemented using one or more processors, comprising: detecting, via a browser extension application, a field requiring population in a web page associated with a merchant; providing, to a server system via the browser extension application, an indication of the field requiring population; receiving, from the server system via the browser extension application, an alphanumeric code related to the field requiring population; and automatically populating, via the browser extension application, the alphanumeric code in the field. 9 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising: overlaying, via the browser extension application, a prompt over the web page, the prompt requesting a user to confirm the field requiring population should be populated; receiving user confirmation via the prompt; and automatically submitting the alphanumeric code in the field in response to receiving the user confirmation. 10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the prompt comprises one or more buttons for selection. 11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein a first button of the one or more buttons is associated with confirming the field requiring population should be populated. 12 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the alphanumeric code is associated with a coupon. 13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the alphanumeric code is a token. 14 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the alphanumeric code comprises unsecured data.
