Abstract

Systems and methods for retrieving and displaying merchant payment preferences to a user are described. When a user is at or near a merchant location, a service provider determines the type or form of electronic payment the merchant can accept. The service provider then generates the specific type or form of payment for display or communication to a user device. The user is then able to present a type of payment accepted by the merchant and pay for a purchase.
