Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for transferring value from a first user to a second user by using substantially random codes that are associated with the values to be transferred. A trusted authority enables users to create user accounts used to store value. A first user may request a payment code, which is associated with a specified value, and may be communicated to a second user, who may submit the payment code to the trusted authority. If the payment code is valid, the trusted authority debits the specified value from the first user's account and credits the specified value to the second user's account. Alternatively, the second user may request an invoice code, which is associated with a specified value, and may be communicated to the first user, who may submit the invoice code to the trusted authority. If the invoice code is valid, the trusted authority debits the specified value from the first user's account and credits the specified value to the second user's account.
