  • Patent number: 11250422
    Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine readable mediums which provide a store credit issued electronically to a mobile wallet application from a merchant. This credit may be issued to a mobile wallet in the form of an enhanced wallet payment element. This enhanced wallet payment element may include the terms and conditions (e.g., repayment terms) of the credit (e.g., a digital/smart contract). The customer may accept or reject these terms. For example, when the customer accepts the terms, the enhanced wallet payment element digitally signs the agreement and indicates acceptance to the merchant mobile wallet system (e.g., sends the digital signature to the merchant). Once accepted, the enhanced wallet payment element may be utilized to pay for goods or services subject to the terms and conditions.
