  • Publication number: 20120066121
    Abstract: A Requestor receives a bill from a Payee requesting payment for goods and/or services. If the Requestor wishes to solicit assistance in making a desired payment to the payee (e.g., if the Requestor has insufficient funds available to make the desired payment), the requestor directly or indirectly solicits assistance from contacts available to the requestor. Assuming that one or more of the Requestor's contacts agrees to assist in making the desired payment to the payee, each Payor sends a payment to the Intermediary to be handled in trust on behalf of the Requestor. The Intermediary sends each payor's contribution to the Payee on behalf of the Requestor.
