An exemplary system includes an asynchronous transaction authorization (“ATA”) subsystem configured to record prior approval of transaction parameters from the account holder(s) and approve a transaction with congruent parameters within a subsequent defined time period. If the parameters of a transaction attempt have not been previously authorized by the account holder(s), the parameters of the requested transaction are stored and the transaction is rejected. The ATA subsystem then queries all associated account or card holders (“ACHs”) providing the parameters of the attempted transaction. Upon authorization from the required ACHs, which is a predefined subset of all the associated ACHs, the purchaser and all ACHs may be notified of approval. The subsequent attempted transaction with congruent parameters will be authorized. Authorization will no longer be active after the subsequent transaction has been approved or a time, delta, has lapsed. In some examples, the authorization hierarchy is slightly different, e.g., domestic and commercial use.
