Abstract
A method for handoff includes: scanning an indirect token displayed on a guest device, where a guest has previously registered a payment instrument with a server, and associated the payment instrument with a plurality of indirect tokens, and the server has stored a payment token that associates the plurality of indirect tokens with the payment instrument in a database record along with a notification identifier; transmitting the ephemeral token to the server; simultaneously displaying details for a transaction, where the server has accessed the notification identifier to transmit a push notification to the guest device, and where the guest device is executing a proprietary application that allows for simultaneously displaying details for the transaction; and receiving notification from the server that the transaction is complete, where transaction completion data was entered via the guest device and transmitted to the server.
