Abstract: Methods and systems for performing mobile collections utilize computer hardware and software for receiving delivery information including, for example, an agent identifier, a delivery identifier and details of a scheduled delivery, and a buyer identifier. Upon receiving the delivery identifier and a submit request from a communication device of the agent, an authorization request is sent to a communication device of the buyer. On receiving the buyer identifier and an authorization response from the communication device of buyer, a settlement request for the delivery is sent to a banking network. Thereafter, payment for the delivery is received in an account of the supplier.
