Abstract: Methods and systems for collecting and validating data are provided. Data may be collected from users at a variety of locations with a mobile device. The mobile device may wirelessly transmit the collected data to a central location. The collected data may then be validated at the central location and any resulting error messages may be transmitted to the mobile device while the mobile device remains in close proximity to the user so that the data may be corrected.

Abstract: The computer network for secure processing of a request from a mobile application on a mobile device, includes: a first communications channel that an electronic transactions cloud receives the request for processing an electronic transaction between a first and a second entity and over which a request for validation of a secure transaction code for processing the transaction from the mobile application; a second channel over which variable data from the request is verified; and a third channel to send instructions to process the transaction to an electronic data store of the second entity and the transaction code to the data store. If the transaction code is valid, the transactions cloud receives a receipt confirming completion of the transaction from the data store via the third channel and, if the transaction code is not valid, the transactions cloud receives an error message from the data store indicating the transaction code is invalid.
