20120158528 | EFFICIENT TRANSACTIONS AT A POINT OF SALE LOCATION - Systems and methods are provided for efficient transactions according to one or more embodiments. According to an embodiment, a method for efficient transactions comprises associating an identifier to a seller, wherein the identifier is adapted to in turn be provided to a user in connection with one or more transactions at a point of sale (POS) location, and wherein the identifier is mapped to particular identification information of the seller at a remote location. The method also comprises receiving, at the remote location, input from a user device upon the user selecting the user device in connection with the one or more transactions, wherein the input includes the identifier and is made at the POS location. Furthermore, the method comprises facilitating the one or more transactions based on the received input including the identifier that is mapped to the particular identification of the seller. In one or more embodiments, the method further comprises providing information to the seller confirming the facilitating of the one or more transactions. | 06-21-2012 |
20130117713 | SELECTION AND ORGANIZATION BASED ON SELECTION OF X-Y POSITION - An X-Y interaction (XYI) facilitates rapid relationship pairing by creating tap or selection zones that intersect variables. The y-axis contains an indefinite number of variables (items) that can be assigned to x-axis variables (groups). “Items” are individual bits of information or data, like a transaction, song, item, or a to-do task. “Groups” are predefined buckets that apply specific rules or actions or represent specific things or people. Items get assigned to groups, and then the rules are applied to them. Items along the y-axis can be organized based on where along an x-axis a user selects an item. The selection can be by tapping, and one item can be selected for multiple groups. | 05-09-2013 |
20130262281 | FACILITATED DISPUTE PROCESSING BY UTILIZING AN E-RECEIPT - A payment provider receives, from a user device, a request to process a dispute with a merchant for a purchase transaction, selection of an e-receipt for the disputed transaction, selections of items on the e-receipt to be disputed, and a dispute reason for each disputed item. The e-receipt may be provided either by the payment provider for the user's selection or by the user. The payment provider determines, from the e-receipt selected, information on the merchant, a description and an amount of purchase for each disputed item, and prepopulates the description and amount of purchase for each disputed item when the user requests the dispute processing. Utilizing the merchant information, and the description, the amount of purchase and the dispute reason for each disputed item, the payment provider processes the dispute with the merchant. The payment provider may inform the user of the status of the dispute processing. | 10-03-2013 |
