SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR APPENDING PAYMENT NETWORK DATA TO NON-PAYMENT NETWORK TRANSACTION BASED DATASETS THROUGH INFERRED MATCH MODELING

摘要

A method includes receiving a first data set and a second data set. The first data set may include anonymized transaction data that represents purchase transactions made by customers of a merchant. The second data set may include anonymized transaction data that represents purchase transactions made by cardholders in a payment network. The method further includes filtering the second data set to remove therefrom data relating to cardholders who are not customers of the merchant, and processing the first data set and the filtered second data set using a probabilistic engine to establish linkages between data in the first data set and data in the filtered second data set. The method may also include analyzing data in the filtered second data set to generate one or more of shopping habits data, classification data and attribute data with respect to customers of the merchant.
