performed via a mobile or wearable device. The operations performed
via mobile and wearable devices may include electronic commerce
transactions, retail purchasing, micropayments, and other daily
payments. Mobile payments may utilize credit cards, debit cards,
gift cards, and virtual currencies. While mobile payments
facilitate and stimulate the trade, the procedure of providing
financial details and authenticating of identity may be tedious and
time-consuming. Therefore, the convenience of mobile payments for
daily micropayments is hindered.
SUMMARY
[0004] This summary is provided to introduce a selection of
concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in
the Detailed Description. This summary is not intended to identify
key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter,
nor is it intended to be used as an aid in determining the scope of
the claimed subject matter.
[0005] Provided are computer implemented methods and systems for
messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payments and buying
via a mobile and wearable device. Using the methods or systems
described herein a user may perform facilitated electronic payments
from any location. For this purpose, the user may register with the
messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payment and buying
system. During the registration the user may provide his financial
information. The financial information may include bank account
information, credit card information, debit card information, gift
card information, prepaid card information, insurance account
information, merchant account information, mobile currency
information, digital money account, SDK payment information, in-app
payment information, social networking payment information, prepaid
card information, API payment information, mobile account payment
information, mobile currency information, and so forth. When
required, the user may activate a haptic control associated with a
messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payment and buying
system. The haptic control may be displayed over the video output
of the device and overlap other applications or pages. The haptic
control may provide for mode selection elements associated with a
payment mode, a messaging mode, a calling mode, and a multimedia
capture mode. Through the haptic control the messaging, calling,
and one-touch and one-scan payment and buying system may receive
the selection of the payment mode via the mode selection elements
of the haptic control from a user. Upon the selection, context may
be extracted from the display of the mobile and wearable device.
Based on the context, a payment transaction type which the user
intends to perform be determined. The payment transaction type may
include a payment receiving transaction and a payment sending
transaction. Based on the determining, a transaction request may be
generated using data of the extraction and the financial
information of the user provided during the registration.
[0006] To the accomplishment of the foregoing and related ends, the
one or more aspects comprise the features hereinafter fully
described and particularly pointed out in the claims. The following
description and the drawings set forth in detail certain

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] In the following description, numerous specific details are
set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the
presented concepts. The presented concepts may be practiced without
some or all of these specific details. In other instances, well
known process operations have not been described in detail so as to
not unnecessarily obscure the described concepts. While some
concepts will be described in conjunction with the specific
embodiments, it will be understood that these embodiments are not
intended to be limiting.
[0015] Various computer implemented methods and systems for
messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payments and buying
via a mobile and wearable device are described herein. The
described system enables a user to make and request payments using
a mobile device by one touch. To facilitate access to the system,
the user initiates the system. When the system is initiated, a
one-touch button is shown on a display of the mobile device on top
of other applications and/or widgets. The one-touch button has at
least three controls to activate messaging, calling, or one-touch
and one-scan payment. One-touch payment control, when activated,
determines whether the user intends to make a payment or to request
a payment by the context in view on the display and performs the
corresponding operation. Such accelerated payment procedure may
facilitate electronic purchases and stimulate electronic trade.
[0016] Referring now to the drawings, FIG. 1 illustrates an
environment 100 within which messaging, calling, and one-touch and
one-scan payment and buying system and a method of using thereof
can be implemented. The environment 100 may include a user 120, a
client device 130, network 110, a messaging, calling, and one-touch
and one-scan payment and buying system 200. On a user request, the
messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payment and buying
system 200 may provide a haptic control on a display of the client
device 130. The haptic control may include, for example, a
one-touch button. The client device 130 may include a smart phone,
a tablet PC, a lap top, an augmented reality glasses, a smart
watch, and so forth.
[0017] Via the haptic control, the user 120 may exchange messages
160 with a recipient 140, make calls 170, and perform or request
one-touch and one-scan payments 180. The messages 160, calls 170,
and one-touch and one-scan payments 180 are transmitted to the
system 200 and further to the recipient 140 or payee (not shown)
via the network 110 using the client device 130.
[0018] The network 110 may include the Internet or any other
network capable of communicating data between devices. Suitable
networks may include or interface with any one or more of, for
instance, a local intranet, a PAN (Personal Area Network), a LAN
(Local Area Network), a WAN (Wide Area Network), a MAN
(Metropolitan Area Network), a virtual private network (VPN), a
storage area network (SAN), a frame relay connection, an Advanced
Intelligent Network (AIN) connection, a synchronous optical network
(SONET) connection, a digital T1, T3, E1 or E3 line, Digital Data
Service (DDS) connection, DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) connection,

application and responses back to the clients.
[0019] FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing various modules of the
messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payment and buying
system 200, in accordance with certain embodiments. The system 200
may comprise a processor 202 a database 204, and a haptic control
206. The processor 202 may include a programmable processor, such
as a microcontroller, central processing unit (CPU), and so forth.
In other embodiments, the processor 202 may include an
application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) or programmable
logic array (PLA), such as a field programmable gate array (FPGA),
designed to implement the functions performed by the system 200.
Thus, the processor 202 may provide a haptic control associated
with a messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payment and
buying system. The haptic control may be represented, for example,
by a one-touch button shown on a display of a mobile and wearable
device. The haptic control may overlap other visual elements on the
display so that the haptic control was always visible for the user
and not hidden by other screens. In some embodiments, the haptic
control 206 may be integrated with a mobile application associated
with the mobile and wearable device and/or the system 200. One
touch service may be integrated with import and export service for
international trade and trade assurance (ITTA) services. The one
touch service may further help with customs clearance preparation
and assist in foreign exchange collections with just a tag and one
touch payment on a computer screen. Furthermore, the one touch
service may be integrated into an online platform providing
professional import and export business process outsourcing (IEBPO)
services to cross border trade enterprises, and bring business
process operations online and set up credit system for the trade
enterprises with only one touch payment. The haptic control may
provide mode selection elements associated with a payment mode, a
messaging mode, a calling mode, and multimedia capture mode. The
processor 202 may further receive the selection of the payment mode
via the mode selection element of the haptic control 206 from a
user. When the payment mode is selected, the processor may extract
context from the display of the mobile and wearable device. The
context may include information on a web page, an application
screen, or a message in view on the display. For example, the
context may include a check-out page of an online shop. Based on
the context, the processor 202 may determine a payment transaction
type (i.e. a payment receiving transaction or a payment sending
transaction) which the user intends to perform. For this purpose,
the processor 202 may parse the context and identify key words
associated with a specific payment transaction type. For instance,
the payment sending transaction may be associated with the
following key words: "check-out," "cart," and so forth. According
to the determined transaction, a transaction request may be sent to
a financial institution using the information extracted from the
context and financial information of the user stored in the
database 204. The financial information may include one or more of
the following: bank account information, credit card information,
debit card information, gift card information, prepaid card
information, insurance account information, merchant account
information, mobile currency information, and digital money. More
specifically, the one touch service may consolidate scattered
service resources of different sorts for cross border trade
partners and provide professional services including customs
clearance, logistics, trade insurance, financing services and
freight forwarding services. The one touch service may be
integrated with e-commerce company providing consumer-to-consumer,
business-to-consumer and business-to-business sales services via
web portals. In some embodiments, the transaction request may be
associated with a virtual currency. The one touch service may
provide a third-party online escrow (TPOE) service, in which buyers
can verify whether they are happy with goods they have bought
before releasing payment to the seller. The one touch service
company may provide a microcredit, i.e. very small loans
(microloans), to impoverished borrowers who typically lack
collateral, steady employment and a verifiable credit history,
which is designed not only to support entrepreneurship and
alleviate poverty, but also in many cases to empower women and
uplift entire communities by extension. The one touch service may
further be integrated with the third-party online payment platform,
which provides an escrow service, in which consumers can verify
whether they are happy with goods they have bought before releasing
money to the seller, which provides the safest way to transact
online, where the funds are held in trust, no chargebacks or
reversals.
[0020] The transaction request may be sent without requesting
financial information, authorizing, or confirmations from the user.
However, in some embodiments, the user, with the help of options of
the system 200, may select to receive a confirmation request before
sending the transaction request. When this option is selected, a
confirmation request associated with the transaction request may be
provided to the user on the display before the transaction request
is transmitted.
[0021] Furthermore, the user may select a messaging mode via the
mode selection elements of the haptic control 206. Then, the
processor may provide a messaging interface on the display of the
mobile and wearable device. When a message and a choice of a
recipient is received from the user via the messaging interface,
the processor 202 may send the message to the recipient via a data
network.
[0022] If the calling mode is selected via the haptic control 206,
the processor 202 may provide a calling interface on the display of
the mobile and wearable device. Via the calling interface, the
processor 202 may receive a call recipient from the user and
initiate a data network call to the call recipient. The data
network call may be made via a free Voice over IP (VoIP) service, a
free Over-the-Top (OTT) service, and so forth.
[0023] If the multimedia mode is selected via the haptic control
206, the processor 202 may initiate one or more sensors to capture
multimedia to obtain captured multimedia. The processor 202 may
analyze a duration of the single touch to the section element of
the one-touch button associated with the multimedia capture mode.
Based on the analysis, the processor 202 may determine a type of
the captured multimedia to be recorded: an image and a video
recording. For example, if the duration of the single touch to the
section element of the one-touch button associated with the
multimedia capture mode is one second, the captured multimedia may
be processed to generate an image, if the duration is more than one
second, a video recording may be produced. The video recording may
be captured while the single touch to the section element of the
one-touch button associated with the multimedia capture mode lasts.
The captured multimedia may be recorded to the database.
[0024] FIG. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a method 300 for
messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payments and buying
via a mobile and wearable device, in accordance with some example
embodiments. The method 300 may be performed by logic that may
comprise hardware (e.g., dedicated logic, programmable logic, and
microcode), software (such as software run on a general-purpose
computer system or a dedicated machine), or a combination of both.
In one example embodiment, the processing logic resides at the
system 200 for providing compensation for using a mobile payment
service, and the various elements of the system 200 can perform the
method 300. It will be appreciated by one of ordinary skill that
examples of the foregoing modules may be virtual, and instructions
said to be executed by a module may, in tact, be retrieved and
executed by software. Although various elements may be configured
to perform some or all of the various operations described herein,
fewer or more elements may be provided and still fall within the
scope of various embodiments.
[0025] As shown in FIG. 3, the method 300 may commence at operation
302 with receiving payment information associated with a user. The
payment information may be also associated with a mobile payment
account of the user in a messaging, calling, and one-touch and
one-scan payment and buying system. At operation 304, a unique code
encoding the payment information is generated. The unique code is
provided to the user at operation 306.
[0026] At operation 308, the method continues with providing a
haptic control on the display of the mobile and wearable device.
The haptic control includes mode selection elements associated with
a payment mode, a messaging mode, a calling mode, and a multimedia
capture mode. The haptic control may be providing on receiving a
request to initiate the haptic control from the user. To initiate
the haptic control, the user may be prompted to provide a password,
a code, a voice command, biometric data, and so forth. The user may
interact with the haptic control by touch to a specific area of the
haptic control associated with one of the mode selection elements.
Additionally, the selection of the activity mode may include a
voice command, a move command, and so forth. When the user touches
one of the mode selection elements, the system determines which of
the elements was touched.
[0027] At operation 310, a selection of the payment mode via the
mode selection elements of the haptic control is received from the
user. Upon the selection, context is extracted from the display at
operation 312. Information from the screen in view on the mobile
and wearable device and be captured and analyzed to identify the
context. Based on the context, a payment transaction type to be
performed may be determined at operation 314. Thus, it may be
determined whether the user is performing a payment or requesting a
payment based on the information on the display of the mobile and
wearable device.
[0028] Based on the determining of the payment transaction type, a
transaction request associated with the determined payment
transaction type may be sent at operation 316. The transaction
request may include the extracted information and/or financial data
and authorizing data associated with the user. The financial data
and authorizing data may be provided by the user during
registration and stored by the messaging, calling, and one-touch
and one-scan payment and buying system. The financial information
may include bank account information, credit card information,
debit card information, gift card information, prepaid card
information, insurance account information, merchant account
information, mobile currency information, digital money, and so
forth. The transaction request may be sent to a financial operation
for processing. The financial organization performing the payment
may be a bank, a credit company, a virtual currency system, and so
forth.
[0029] If the transaction request is associated with the payment
sending transaction, a deposit amount associated with the payment
sending transaction related to the user may be received at
operation 318. Further, at operation 320, a notification about a
further payment sending transaction of the user may be received via
the mobile payment service. The notification may include at least
the unique code and a payment amount of the further payment sending
transaction. Based on the notification, a compensation, a rebate, a
cashback, and/or a reward may be provided to the user from the
deposit amount. The compensation, the rebate, the cashback, and/or
the reward may be associated with the payment amount associated
with the further payment sending transaction and may amounts o a
predetermined percent from the payment amount.
[0030] Furthermore, if the messaging mode is selected via the
haptic control, the system 200 of FIG. 2 may provide to the user a
messaging interface on the mobile and wearable device. Through the
messaging interface a message may be received from the user and
sent to a recipient via a data network. The message may include a
text, an audio, a video, and geographical data. Additionally,
messages may be received from other users. The haptic control may
notify the user that one or more messages were received. The user
may activate the messaging interface to read and/or reply to the
messages.
[0031] If the calling mode is selected, a calling interface may be
provided to the user. The user may select a call recipient in his
contacts and make a call request. The system 200 may receive the
call request from the user. Based on the call request, the system
200 may initiate a data network call. The call may include an audio
call, a video call, a holographic video call, and so forth. The
call may be performed via a Voice over IP (Von') service, a free
Over-the-Top (OTT) service, and so forth. The free VoIP service and
the free OTT service include voice communication, fax, text
messaging, voice messaging, video communication, and multimedia
transmission. In various embodiments, the free VoIP service and the
free OTT service are provided via Wi-Fi, 3G network, 4G network, 5G
network, 6G network or upper.
[0032] On selection of the multimedia mode, one or more sensors may
be initiated to capture multimedia to obtain captured multimedia. A
duration of the single touch to the section element of the
one-touch button associated with the multimedia capture mode may be
analyzed. Based on the analysis, a type of the captured multimedia
may be determined: an image and a video recording. When the type if
determined, the captured multimedia may be recorded to the database
according to the type determined based on the duration. For
instance, if the duration of the single touch to the section
element of the one-touch button associated with the multimedia
capture mode is one second, an image is recorded to the database,
if the duration is more than one second, a video recording may be
stored to the database.
[0033] In an example embodiment, the system 200 may authenticate an
identity of the user. The authentication may include one or more of
the following: a password authentication, a voice authentication,
and a biometric authentication. The biometric authentication may
include one or more of a fingerprint authentication, an iris
pattern authentication, a heartbeat authentication, a vein pattern
identification, and so forth. The vein pattern identification may
be performed using scanning of one or more of the following: a palm
vein pattern, a wrist vein pattern, a hand vein pattern, a leg vein
pattern, a foot vein pattern, a neck vein pattern, and a head vein
pattern of the user. The fingerprint authentication may include
scanning fingerprints swiped across one or more or the following: a
screen of the mobile and wearable device, a button of the mobile
and wearable device, a rear panel of the mobile and wearable
device, and so forth.
[0034] In an example embodiment, the system 200 may receive, based
on the determining of the payment transaction type which the user
intends to perform, data of a payment card associated with the
user. The data of the payment card may be received by scanning the
payment card. The payment card may be scanned by a camera of the
mobile and wearable device by positioning the payment card in
proximity to camera of the mobile and wearable device. The payment
card may be associated with one or more of the following: a bank
account of the user, a virtual currency account of the user, and
the like. The bank account of the user and the virtual currency
account of the user may be linked to a mobile and wearable device
number.
[0035] In an example embodiment, the data of the payment card may
be stored into a cloud network. In some embodiments, the data of
the payment card may be stored in the cloud network as a token.
[0036] In some embodiments, the transaction request may include a
unique code associated with the user. The unique code may encode at
least bank account information of the user and a payment amount. In
further embodiments, the unique code may be displayed on the mobile
and wearable device for scanning by the merchant.
[0037] In a further example embodiment, the system 200 may receive
product data based on scanning of the product data by the mobile
and wearable device associated with the user. The product data may
be associated with one or more products. Upon receiving of the
scanning, the system 200 may calculate a total price for the one or
more products. Furthermore, merchant data may be received. In some
embodiments, the merchant data may be received by scanning a code
associated with the merchant. A scanned code associated with the
merchant may include at least a Quick Response (QR) code associated
with the merchant. The QR-code associated with the merchant can be
stored in the mobile and wearable device of the user. The QR-code
associated with the merchant may encode at least a merchant account
number. In further embodiments, the transaction request may
comprise at least the total price and the merchant data.
[0038] The system 200 may determine that the total price for the
one or more products exceeds a predetermined price. Based on the
determining, the system 200 may send a notification to a
merchant.
[0039] In some embodiments, the transaction request may include at
least a user phone number. In such a case, the payment sending
transaction may include sending a payment from a phone account of
the user to a merchant account.
[0040] In further embodiments, the payment receiving transaction
and the payment sending transaction may be performed by pairing of
the mobile and wearable device and a merchant device using a
reader. The reader may be connected to the merchant device and
plugged into the mobile and wearable device.
[0041] In some embodiments, the mobile application associated with
the mobile and wearable device and the system 200 may be integrated
into a software development kit and an operating system of the
mobile and wearable device. The operating system may be selected
from iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. Upon launch of the mobile
application by the user, the user may be prompted to log in and
asked to provide a consent that the mobile application may initiate
future payments on behalf of the user. Additionally, during further
purchases the mobile application may be launched by default without
a need for a further action (such as entering a login and a
password by the user) from the user to initiate launching of the
mobile application. The mobile application may associated with
performing payments and buying products or services in the
Internet.
[0042] Thus, one-touch and one-scan payment and buying features may
improve buying experience for customers and merchant. Additionally,
for the user that pays and buys products and services using the
mobile application associated with one-touch and one-scan payment
and buying, the number of taps and times the user is required to
enter a user login (identification number) and a password for
future purchases may be minimized.
[0043] In some embodiments, upon launching of the at least one
mobile application by the user, a list of payment cards may be
provided for selection by the user. The payment cards may be
associated with one or more of the following: a bank account, a
bank mobile account, a service provider account, a digital
currency, a universal national currency token interface, a national
digital currency, an electric payment card, and the like. Upon the
selection, a token may be sent to the mobile and wearable device.
The token may be associated with a selected payment card, and
further payments may be performed using the token.
[0044] In further embodiments, the processor of the system 200 may
be further configured to download applications, receive and set
text, video, and multimedia data.
[0045] FIG. 4 is a block diagram 400 illustrating a haptic control,
in accordance with certain embodiments. The haptic control 414 may
be shown on the display 410 of the mobile and wearable device 412.
The haptic control may include one or more mode selection elements.
The mode selection elements may include a messaging mode 402, a
calling mode 404, and a payment mode 406. A user 408 may give a
haptic command (e.g. touch) to select a desired mode. If the user
select the payment mode 406, a transaction request may be
generated.
[0046] The transaction request may be generated using data of a
mobile application or a page from which the payment mode is
activated. For example, the user may activate the payment mode from
a purchase page of an online store. The payment may be immediately
initiated without requesting further details. Data of a payment
recipient and a payment amount may be received from the actual page
or application and financial information of the user may be stored
in the database of the messaging, calling, and one-touch and
one-scan payment and buying system 200. The user financial
information may be provided by the user during registration with
the messaging, calling, and one-touch and one-scan payment and
buying system 200 and may include one or more of the following:
bank account information, credit card information, debit card
information, gift card information, prepaid card information,
insurance account information, merchant account information, mobile
currency information, digital money, and so forth. Online payments
can be secured by two-factor authorization. One of the factors may
be authorization on the integrated interface initiation, and the
other factor may include locating the mobile and wearable device
associated with the user and comparing the location with the
location where the payment is requested.
[0047] Alternatively, the transaction request may be generated
using data of a page associated with billing. In that case, the
system 200 may generate a payment request using information
extracted from the page as well as the financial information of the
user stored in the system 200.
[0048] Transactions can be associated with transactional payments
based on Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSR) or Short
Message Service (SMS), direct operator billing, credit card mobile
payments, online wallets, QR code payments, contactless near field
communication (NFC), cloud-based mobile payments, audio
signal-based payment, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) signal beacon
payment, in-application payment, SDK payment, API payment, social
networking payment, and direct carrier/bank co-operation.
[0049] Contactless NFC may be used to receive data for the payment
request. For example, when the one touch and one-scan payment mode
is selected, the user may make a payment for purchases in physical
stores or transportation services. The mobile and wearable device
may be equipped with a smart card. When a user waves the mobile and
wearable device near a radar module, a payment is made. In some
cases, the payment may require authentication. The NFC payment
could be deducted from a pre-paid account or changed to a mobile or
band account directly. NFC payment may include displaying a barcode
on the mobile device screen for mobile payment. The payment barcode
can include one or more of the following: a linear barcode, a
two-dimensional barcode, a three-dimensional barcode, a machine
readable code, and so forth.
[0050] The audio channel of the mobile phone may be another
wireless interface that is used to receive data for a transaction
request. Chip, ultra sound and acoustic features of the mobile and
wearable device may support mobile payments. Near sound data
transfer (NDST), data over voice and NFC produce audio signatures
that the mobile phone can pick up to enable electronic
transactions.
[0051] In some embodiments, the payment receiving transaction and
the payment sending transaction are performed using a NFC. The NFC
may be used to pair the mobile and wearable device and a merchant
device by bringing the mobile and wearable device into proximity to
the merchant device. The mobile and wearable device and the
merchant device may be connected to a cloud network. The financial
data and authorizing data associated with the user may be stored in
the cloud network. The one touch service may further be integrated
with electronic payment services, a shopping search engine and
data-centric cloud computing services. More specifically, the one
touch service may be integrated with a third-party online payment
platform without charge, but earn interests on deposit and short
time payment cash deposit. The one touch service company may
further operate worldwide online payments system that supports
online money transfers and serves as an electronic alternative to
traditional paper methods like checks and money orders. More
specifically, one touch service company may operate as a payment
processor for online vendors, auction sites and other commercial
users, for which it charges a fee. In an example embodiment, upon
pairing the mobile and wearable device with the merchant device, a
Bluetooth connection between the mobile and wearable device and the
merchant device may be established. The payment receiving
transaction and the payment sending transaction may include at
least a pear-to-pear transaction.
[0052] In some embodiments, a beacon mobile payment sends out a
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) signal to anyone or any device with
mobile application to transfer payment data and get electronic
receipt. When a customer checks in, their picture and name may pop
up on the retailer's point-of-sale system, when a sales associate
at the store totals a bill on a cash register or a card-reading
terminal, the beacon mobile payment user gives verbal confirmation
to the associate, who matches the customer with the picture on the
POS screen and concludes the transaction.
[0053] FIG. 5 is a block diagram illustrating a one-touch payment
operation 500 using the messaging, calling, and one-touch and
one-scan payment system, in accordance with certain embodiments.
The user selects a payment mode 504 using a one-touch button 502
(i.e. haptic control). The user selection may be transmitted to the
system 200, and the system may determine information on a page 506
in view on the display. The system 200 may automatically provide
financial information of the user on the page 506 and automatically
initiate a payment.
[0054] FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing various modules of a
messaging, calling, and one-touch payment and buying mobile
platform shown as a messaging, calling, and one-touch payment
mobile service 600 using a one-touch button 608, in accordance with
certain embodiments. The messaging, calling, and one-touch payment
mobile service 600 may include a central processing unit (CPU) 604,
for example, associated with a remote server 602, a database 606
storing financial information of a user, and a one-touch button 608
presented on a device of the user. The CPU 604 may provide the
one-touch button 608 on a display of a mobile and wearable device.
The one-touch button 608 may overlap other visual elements on the
display. The CPU 604 may receive a selection of the payment mode
via the mode selection elements of the one-touch button 608 from a
user. The selection may include a single touch of the user to the
one-touch button 608. Upon the selection, the CPU 604 may extract
context from the display of the mobile and wearable device to
determine a payment transaction type which the user intends to
perform. Based on the determining, the CPU 604 may send a
transaction request to a financial institution using the extraction
and financial data stored in the database 606 without requesting
financial information, authorizing, or confirmations.
[0055] In some embodiments, the user may select one of the stored
payment accounts to perform a payment. Authentication may be made
when the user accesses the messaging, calling, and one-touch
payment mobile service 600. The authentication may include password
authentication, voice authentication, biometric authentication, and
so forth.
[0056] Furthermore, using the messaging, calling, and one-touch
payment mobile service 600 the user may create automatic payments.
For example, the user may give instructions to transfer 1$ to a
specific account every week day at 1:25 PM. The messaging, calling,
and one-touch payment mobile service 600 may receive the
instructions and automatically perform the payment according to the
instructions. After a predefined period, for example, after one
month, or every week, or every year, the messaging, calling, and
one-touch payment mobile service 600 may prompt the user either to
prolong the automatic payment or to cancel the payment.
[0057] Thus, various systems and methods for messaging, calling,
and one-touch and one-scan payments and buying via a mobile and
wearable device have been described. Although embodiments have been
described with reference to specific example embodiments, it will
be evident that various modifications and changes may be made to
these embodiments without departing from the broader spirit and
scope of the system and method described herein. Accordingly, the
specification and drawings are to be regarded in an illustrative
rather than a restrictive sense.
