摘要： There is disclosed a method, computer program and system that support purchase transactions at merchants via a Payment ID generated on-demand and funded with a specific consumer-requested amount. The Payment ID, which could include but is not limited to a gift card ID, is then leveraged to complete a transaction at a merchant's point of sale (POS) system via the existing methods and processes inherent in the POS system. Also disclosed are related mechanisms to manage a secure database of Payment IDs and dynamically adjust the value tied to Payment IDs to account for any value due the customer from the merchant or other involved party.

摘要： A cause gift card system allows for redemption of a gift card with one or more unaffiliated organizations—including both for-profit and not for-profit entities. The system automatically distributes any unredeemed funds to participating entities associated with the particular cause gift card type per defined business rules. The system provides for purchase of cause gift cards through retail merchants, websites, or other authorized sellers for either fixed denominations or variable amounts. The recipient can elect to direct the funds, in whole or in part, to one of a basket of pre-determined organizations that are specific to each cause gift card type, for example, environmental services, health and wellness, political actions, and more.

摘要： Methods for using a rebate card and preventing the retention of rebate value when the product that prompted the rebate is returned are disclosed. Methods for using the rebate card may be limited for use at a particular retailer and/or for a particular manufacturer's goods or services. Methods for preventing the improper retention of rebate value may comprise: determining the amount the customer paid for the product; determining if a rebate value was provided for the product being returned; deducting the amount of the rebate from the amount the customer paid for the product; and providing the remaining amount the customer paid for the product being returned to the customer. In some embodiments of the present invention, the amount of the rebate value that was provided based on the purchase of the product being returned may be deducted from the customer's rebate account. Additionally, rebate cards may be RFID enabled.
