Abstract

A method performed by a session initiation system (SIS) for reducing a time to authenticate a user includes communicating, to a mobile device, session identifying information associated with a session. The mobile device is configured to subsequently communicate at least part of the session identifying information to an authentication server, and the authentication server is configured to subsequently communicate account information associated with the session identifying information to an intermediate gateway. The method also includes receiving, from the intermediate gateway, the account information associated with the session identifying information; and communicating, to the intermediate gateway, a request that specifies the account information, wherein in response to receiving the request, the intermediate gateway is configured to communicate the request to an account server, and wherein the account server is configured to transfer a value amount from a first account specified by the account information to a second account associated with the account server.
