METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CREDIT CARD HOLDER IDENTIFICATION

Abstract:

The present invention is associated with a method that takes a subsequence of a credit card number, in particular the suffix (or last n digits), and transaction data associated with the cardholder. For each subsequence of the credit card number, a set of data may be used in order to uniquely identify the cardholder. The identification of the cardholder may be performed in a particular search space that is composed of all possible credit card numbers and includes the transaction data associated with the cardholder.
