Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving, by a computer-based system for processing applications, first application information entered by a customer into fields of an incomplete first account application; determining, by the computer-based system, based on a selection of an indicator by the customer that the customer is a pre-existing customer having an existing account; transferring, by the computer-based system and in response to the customer being the pre-existing customer, the first application information entered by the customer in fields of the incomplete first account application to corresponding fields in a second account application, wherein the incomplete first account application includes less than a full identification number; transmitting, by the computer-based system, the second account application to the customer, wherein the second account application includes less than the full identification number and a fewer number of the fields than the first account application which was previously presented to the customer, wherein the customer completes second application information in the fewer fields of the second account application; receiving, by the computer-based system, the second account application from the customer; and verifying, by the computer-based system, the second application information provided in the second account application against stored information of an existing account of the pre-existing customer.
