Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for use in provisioning accounts to applications included in mobile devices. One exemplary method includes receiving, at a mobile device, a request to provision an account to a mobile device; prompting a user associated with the account for authentication at a wireless device associated with the account; receiving an account credential from the wireless device, via a local wireless communication between the mobile device and the wireless device, when the user is authenticated at the wireless device; transmitting the account credential toward a first party associated with the account, whereby the account credential is indicative of the authentication of the user; and provisioning the account to the mobile device, in response to an approval received from the first party.
