Definitions
- This invention relates to the field of smart cards.
- the invention relates to a file structure employed in smart cards for facilitating commercial transactions.
- Smart cards have been proposed as a medium for facilitating promotions such as coupons and loyalty programs.
- the ubiquity of handheld wireless appliances allows the smart cards to include promotional data transmitted to the wireless unit. This creates an unprecedented opportunity for one-to-one marketing. As such, there is a need for a file structure on such smart cards to facilitate promotions received from wireless units.
- the invention comprises a file structure for a smart card used to conduct promotions, such as coupons and loyalty programs.
- the smart card can be read from or written to by a wireless device, which may receive data for the promotion through a wireless medium.
- the promotion is conducted by a consumer who presents the smart card at point of sale.
- Fig. 1 illustrates a file architecture for a smart card supporting promotions according to an embodiment of the invention.
- the present invention comprises a file structure that enables smart cards to support commercial promotions, including but not limited to coupons and loyalty programs.
- the smart card may be redeemed at a point of sale, such as in a supermarket, to redeem coupons or loyalty points.
- the smart card may also be accessed by a portable device which may read from or write to the card.
- a portable device which may read from or write to the card.
- Such a device may also be referred to as an electronic "wallet.”
- the wallet may also receive data via a wireless connection, such as a wireless phone transmission, or a wireless optical signal from a monitor, as described in U.S. Patents 5,594,493, 5,767,896, 5,880,769, 5,907,350, all of which are herein incorporated by reference in their entirety
- the file structure may include the following files:
- Header File 100 This file contains information pertaining to the card as a whole. It is a transparent (i.e., binary) file and comprises one record.
- Coupon File 102 This file contains coupon records. It is transparent. The number of records in the file depends on the amount of memory available on the card.
- Punchcard File 104 This file contains punchcard (loyalty program) records. Like the coupon file, it is transparent and its size depends on available memory.
- Frequent Shopper Alias (FSA) File 106 This file contains frequent-shopper alias records. It is a transparent file. Its size also depends on available memory.
- Text File 108 This file contains display text records for those manufacturers not represented in the Wallet's Flash-based manufacturers profiles database. It is transparent and its size depends on the amount of memory available on the card.
- All files described are elementary (data) files that reside within the same dedicated (directory) file. This dedicated file lies just beneath a master file.
- the other files are all fixed-length and are created during the manufacture process.
- the files may have identifiers. As an example, these identifiers may be:
- the header file 100 includes a single record comprising the following fields:
- Total file size 100 bytes.
- the coupon file 102 includes records with the following format:
- the punchcard file 104 includes records with the following format:
- the FSA file 106 contains records with the following format:
- each text record 108 has the following format:
- the size of this file is controlled by the card manufacturer.
- the size of this file is 64 bytes containing 4 double length keys.
- This file comprises a single 8 byte serial number.
- files are accessed via secret codes (sometimes called PINs) as opposed to secret keys.
- Other embodiments utilize secret keys, and include a Secret Key file.
- codes presented to the card will be transmitted in the clear (not encrypted). This avoids the placement of cryptographic software in the wallet.
- codes are presented to the card in encrypted format, and wallets include DES or other cryptographic software.
- the code for read-access is the same for all files, while the code for update-access is the same for all files, but different than the read-access code.
- the secret codes are based upon diversification of a code derived from a scrambling of the card's serial number. Other embodiments for generating such codes will be apparent to one skilled in the art.
- Each serial number is unique and is created during the manufacture process. This serial number is generally distinct from the serial number assigned by the microprocessor manufacturer. The serial number can always be read in the clear.
- the size of the Secret Code File and the Header File 100 are fixed. All other files may grow or shrink, depending on the amount of smartcard memory available.
- Non-limiting scenarios include:
- Coupon File 102 30 records for a total size of 660 bytes.
- Punchcard File 104 10 records for a total size of 160 bytes
- FSA File 106 4 records for a total size of 48 bytes.
- Text File 108 3 records for a total size of 126 bytes.
- Coupon File 102 60 records for a total size of 1320 bytes.
- Punchcard File 104 20 records for a total size of 320 bytes
- FSA File 106 8 records for a total size of 96 bytes
- Text File 108 6 records for a total size of 252 bytes.
- Coupon File 102 90 records for a total size of 1980 bytes
- Punchcard File 104 30 records for a total size of 480 bytes.
- FSA File 106 12 records for a total size of 144 bytes
- Text File 108 9 records for a total size of 378 bytes.
- Coupon File 102 120 records for a total size of
- Punchcard File 104 40 records for a total size of 640 bytes
- FSA File 106 16 records for a total size of 192 bytes
- Text File 108 12 records for a total size of 504 bytes.
