Method and system for determining affiliation of foreign payment card holders with domestic educational institutions

摘要

A method and a system are provided determining affiliation of foreign payment card holders (e.g., students) with domestic educational institutions (e.g., universities and colleges). In particular, the present disclosure provides a method and a system for assessing the relative degree of proximity of the residential geolocation of the foreign payment card holders and the geolocation of the domestic educational institutions to facilitate determining whether the foreign payment card holders are affiliated with the domestic educational institutions, and also for assessing purchasing and payment behavior of the foreign payment card holders at domestic merchants. Predictive behavioral profiles are generated based on the purchasing and payment activities and shopping patterns of the foreign payment card holders by date at the domestic merchants, and the relative degree of proximity of the residential geolocation of the foreign payment card holders with the geolocation of the domestic educational institutions.
