Abstract: Provided are computer implemented methods for combining online and offline gaming, advertising, and commerce and providing free games, free products, and free services. The method may commence with receiving a buying request associated with a product from a user. The method may continue with providing an incentive to the user to play a game and receiving an indication that the user intends to play the game. In response to the indication, a payment amount associated with the game may be transferred from a user account. The payment amount associated with the game may constitute a predetermined portion of a payment amount associated with the product. The method may include receiving results of the game played by the user. Based on the results of the game, the user may be selectively provided with a discount for the product. The discount may be equal to the payment amount associated with the game.

Abstract: A method for facilitating mobile device payments, multimedia capture, calling, and messaging may include providing a payment, multimedia capture, calling, and messaging interface on a display of a mobile and wearable device and sensing a haptic input of the user via the haptic control. In response to the haptic input, a cloud-based application associated with the mobile and wearable device may be activated. The haptic input may be analyzed to determine a duration of the haptic input. Based on the duration of the haptic input, an operation may be selected from the list of predetermined operations to be performed by the cloud-based application. The predetermined operations include at least a payment operation, a multimedia capture operation, a calling operation, and a messaging operation. The method may include operably connecting the mobile and wearable device to a cloud storage. Upon selection of the predetermined operation, the predetermined operation may be performed.
