Abstract

A method of conducting a financial transaction by a purchaser over a communications network is provided where the purchaser does not transmit his or her “real” payment card information over the network but instead secure payment application software is provided which allows for the transmission of a pseudo account number that is cryptographically processed for purposes of responding to an authorization request based on the real account number.
