SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROCESSING OFF-NETWORK TRANSACTION MESSAGES

Abstract:

A method for applying services hosted on a second interchange network to a transaction initiated over a first interchange network includes transmitting, by a first processor associated with the second interchange network to a requestor computing device, data element layouts usable to map service requests associated with payment transactions received over the first interchange network into the second message format, and for service responses generated by a services platform hosted on the second interchange network. The method also includes receiving a service request from the requestor computing device including request data associated with a transaction initiated on the first interchange network, generating, by the services platform, response data by applying at least one registered service to the service request, and transmitting a services response including the response data, wherein the previously transmitted second data element layout enables the requestor computing device to extract the response data from the services response.
