Abstract: Merchant hosted checkout as described herein allows merchants to process mobile payments via a customized user payment interface (“checkout interface”). The merchant hosted checkout provides dynamic user interface (UI) instructions and user input requirements based on the country and mobile network (carrier) associated with each transaction.

Abstract: A method of processing transactions is described. A pricing matrix is configured on a billing server. The pricing matrix has a set of cells, each cells corresponding to an intersection between a respective country and a respective target price. The merchant server downloads the pricing matrix periodically from the billing server. The merchant server determines a country of a consumer mobile phone and displays price points corresponding to the country within a mobile phone application. When the consumer selects one of the price points a transaction is processed between the consumer mobile phone, the billing server and a carrier server aligned with the billing server.
