Abstract

Buyer, vendor and third party computer systems are disclosed together with a related method for enabling a prospective Buyer to browse a Vendor's website purchase goods or services. The Buyer's computer system automatically extracts purchase information from which the Vendor can identify the Buyer's purchase. The Buyer's computer system may transmit, under control of the Buyer, confirmation to the Vendor that a third party has been instructed to pay the Vendor for the Buyer's purchase. A third party's computer system may transmit to the Vendor confirmation of receipt of an instruction from a Buyer to pay a Vendor for goods or services.
