Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for notifying providers associated with virtual wallets that the virtual wallets are default virtual wallets for consumers and/or communication devices. One exemplary method includes receiving, at a wallet platform, a request, from a wallet provider associated with a virtual wallet, for confirmation that the virtual wallet is a default virtual wallet at a communication device, determining, by the wallet platform, whether the virtual wallet is the default virtual wallet at the communication device, and providing, by the wallet platform, a notification to the wallet provider. In connection therewith, the notification indicates whether or not the virtual wallet is the default virtual wallet at the communication device, thereby permitting the wallet provider to incentivize a consumer associated with the communication device to select the virtual wallet as the default virtual wallet when the virtual wallet is not the default virtual wallet.
