Abstract: A customer selects a payment source and authorizes payment by sending Short Message Service (SMS) text messages or secure hypertext transfer protocol (HTTPS) requests from the customer's mobile phone or device. A SMS payment software-plugin is installed on a Point-Of-Sale (POS) terminal and launches a price match search and can fetch customer rewards. When a customer requests to pay by SMS, the plugin is activated and the customer's mobile phone number and zip code or POS PIN are entered on the POS terminal. The POS terminal sends a request to a SMS payment system, which sends SMS text messages to the customer's mobile device. The details are discussed. The application on marketplace based on circle of friends and family is also discussed, which connects the people to schools or universities, to support them financially, through Koincloud marketplace.
