SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING ANONYMIZED TRANSACTION DATA TO THIRD-PARTIES

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for authorizing access to transaction data to a third-party computer system is implemented by a payment processor computer system coupled to a memory. The method includes receiving a request for access to transaction data associated with a cardholder account, requesting a set of authentication information associated with the cardholder account, authenticating the set of authentication information upon receiving the set of authentication information, and authorizing the third-party computer system to receive transaction data associated with the cardholder account. Upon validation, the payment processor computer system generates an authorization token and provides the authorization token to the third-party computer system. The third-party computer system uses the authorization token and a secure identifier to retrieve transaction data associated with the cardholder account.
