Publication number: 20140095334Abstract: A system and method for facilitating upgrade transactions for certain purchased products is disclosed. Information regarding a purchased product may be stored in a database, and upgrade options and upgrade pricing information regarding the purchased product may be displayed to the customer. A mobile application may be used by the customer to purchase the original product, and the mobile application may further allow the customer to track upgrade options for the product and to initiate the upgrade transaction. When a customer initiates an upgrade transaction, an upgrade payment is matched to the originally purchased product. The upgrade payment may be sent from the mobile application. The system and method may then arrange for the return, or trade-in, of the originally purchased product as well as the delivery or pick-up of the upgrade product.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2012Publication date: April 3, 2014Applicant: BARCLAYS BANK PLCInventor: Loren BARTON

Patent number: 8538883Abstract: A method and system are described for tracking a process of provisioning, by a middleware server to a portable device in a mobile payment system, electronic wallet data for authorizing a payment transaction. In an embodiment, a user request for a payment account product is transmitted by the portable device to the middleware server. In response, the middleware server initiates a provisioning process for the requested payment account product, including storing status data indicative of an initiated state of the provisioning process. The middleware server then transmits a digital document to the portable device, including information that must be viewed by the user, and updates the status data indicative of a transmitted state of the digital document. In response to receiving an indication that the digital document has been viewed, the middleware server updates the stored status data indicative of a digital document viewed state.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2012Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: Barclays Bank PLCInventors: Amy Sobocinski Romagnoli, Mike Starck, Thomas P. Akana, Loren Barton, Patrick Mesa, Leslie Moore
