Abstract

A method for facilitating a wireless transaction includes receiving, by a transaction management system, a transaction request and a spoken authentication code from a transaction requester. After authenticating the spoken authentication code, a transaction code is communicated from the transaction management system to a wireless communication device. The transaction code is then optically scanned from a visual display of the wireless communication device.
