  • Publication number: 20190378124
    Abstract: A method for a system and method of data processing whereby customers can pay their tab or check out from a merchant without having to disclose sensitive personal and financial information to the merchant. Upon arrival at a merchant's place of business, the user is prompted to take a self-portrait photograph, and a unique random identifier code is generated through a mobile application. The unique random identifier code is associated with a user's payment information, and the user's tab. After ordering menu items from a merchant, the user may pay its tab through the application and without disclosing identifying or financial information to the merchant. Upon receipt of tabs from one or more users, wait staff at the merchant's place of business are provided with user photograph, order and location information, along with delivery instructions, in order to fulfill each tab quickly and accurately.
