Abstract

Consumer with a token incorporating a transaction code on their Smartphone brings their Smartphone to a retailer equipped with a transaction module. When purchasing an article, connection is established between the Smartphone and the transaction module and the transaction module transmits its identity code to the Smartphone. The Smartphone subsequently runs the transaction code and identity code through an authentication algorithm. If authenticated, the Smartphone sends authentication signal to the transaction module and a transaction report to a transaction server. Upon receipt of the authentication signal, the transaction module outputs a corresponding validity indication. This enables any retailer possessing a transaction module to process an electronic transaction without directly altering the retailers system. This therefore provides a simpler and potentially cheaper way of implementing electronic transactions at a wide variety of unrelated retail outlets.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for electronic transactions, and in particular, to a method and system for realizing electronic voucher exchange or electronic payment or electronic purchase. Background technique [0002] Traditionally, when a consumer presents a discount voucher associated with an item to the retailer, the retailer discounts the price of the item by a predetermined amount. The discounted amount is usually ultimately borne by the supplier of the item. Therefore, once a discount is applied, retailers and suppliers must ultimately coordinate the use of vouchers and the availability of discounted items. [0003] In the past, the vast majority of vouchers were printed on paper / cards and could include instructions to the retailer and / or consumer. In some cases, the voucher may include a barcode that can be read by an electronic point-of-sale device (EPOS). Paper vouchers also provide an audit trail for the allocation ...
