Abstract

Systems and methods for facilitating a purchase are described. A user logs in to a payment service provider site. The user provides authorization to use a one-page checkout service. The user's information is captured during the session, and a cookie is placed on the user's device. When the user goes on a merchant website and checks out using the payment service provider, the payment service provider detects the cookie on the user device. The payment service provider uses the cookie, and in one embodiment, centrally stored information, to populate the one-page checkout page with the last used payment. In various embodiments, the one-page checkout page also displays a shipping address.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A system comprising:
a non-transitory memory; and
one or more hardware processors coupled to the non-transitory memory and configured to read instructions from the non-transitory memory to cause the system to perform operations comprising:
receiving a payment request from a user device via a network;
in response to receiving the payment request, determining whether a cookie associated with a payment service provider is stored on the user device;
in response to a determination that the cookie is stored on the user device, obtaining from the cookie user identification information identifying a user account with the payment service provider, masked payment method data comprising a portion, but not all, of payment information related to a payment method, and masked shipping address data comprising a portion, but not all, of a shipping address;
presenting, on the user device, a single checkout page for the payment request, wherein the single checkout page comprises the user identification information, the masked payment method data, and the masked shipping address data obtained from the cookie, and a password input field;
receiving, from the user device via the password input field of the single checkout page, a password in association with the payment request;
determining the payment method and the shipping address based on the user identification information, the received password, the masked payment method data, and the masked shipping address data; and
processing the payment request using the determined payment method and the determined shipping address.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the payment request is received via a merchant website displayed on the user device and wherein the single checkout page is provided as a new webpage or a pop-up screen on the merchant site.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the operations further comprise redirecting the user to the merchant site, removing the pop-up screen, or both, when payment request is processed.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the masked shipping address data comprises the shipping address with a masked street number and a masked street name.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the shipping address comprises a last used shipping address for a previous purchase by the user account.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise receiving a different payment method, a different shipping address, or both, from the user.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise determining that the user is eligible to use the single checkout page by determining that the user is on a personal device, no currency conversion is required in the payment request, a merchant associated with the payment request does not require a gift option, or the merchant associated with the payment request does not use merchant call-back capabilities.

8. A method for facilitating a purchase, comprising:
receiving, by the one or more hardware processors of a payment service provider, a payment request from a user device via a network;
in response to receiving the payment request, determining, by the one or more hardware processors, whether a cookie associated with the payment service provider is stored on the user device;
in response to a determination that the cookie is stored on the user device, obtaining, by the one or more hardware processors, from the cookie user identification information identifying a user account with the payment service provider, masked payment method data comprising a portion, but not all, of payment information related to a payment method, and masked shipping address data comprising a portion, but not all, of a shipping address;
presenting, by the one or more hardware processors, a single checkout page for the payment request, wherein the single checkout page comprises the user identification information, the masked payment method data, and the masked shipping address data obtained from the cookie, and a password input field;
receiving, by the one or more hardware processors from the user device via the password input field of the single checkout page, a password in association with the payment request;
determining, by the one or more hardware processors, the payment method and the shipping address based on the user identification information, the received password, the masked payment method data, and the masked shipping address data; and
processing, by the one or more hardware processors, the payment request using the determined payment method and the determined shipping address.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the payment request is received via a merchant website displayed on the user device and wherein the single checkout page is provided as a new page or a pop-up screen on the merchant site.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the masked shipping address data comprises the shipping address with a masked street number and a masked street name.

11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising receiving a different payment method, a different shipping address, or both, from the user.

12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising determining that the user is eligible to use the single checkout page by determining that the user is on a personal device, no currency conversion is required in the payment request, a merchant associated with the payment request does not require a gift option, or the merchant associated with the payment request does not use merchant call-back capabilities.

13. A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon machine-readable instructions executable to cause a machine to perform operations comprising:
receiving a payment request from the user device via a network;
in response to receiving the payment request, determining whether a cookie associated with a payment service provider is stored on the user device;
in response to a determination that the cookie is stored on the user device, obtaining from the cookie user identification information identifying a user account with the payment service provider, masked payment method data comprising a portion, but not all, of payment information related to a payment method, and masked shipping address data comprising a portion, but not all, of a shipping address;
presenting, on the user device, a single checkout page for the payment request, wherein the single checkout page comprises the user identification information, the masked payment method data, and the masked shipping address data obtained from the cookie, and a password input field;
receiving, from the user device via the password input field of the single checkout page, a password in association with the payment request;
determining the payment method and the shipping address based on the user identification information, the received password, the masked payment method data, and the masked shipping address data; and
processing the payment request using the determined payment method and the determined shipping address.

14. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the operations further comprise redirecting the user to a merchant site, removing a pop-up screen of the single checkout page, or both, when payment request is processed.

15. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the masked shipping address data comprises the shipping address with a masked street number and a masked street name.

16. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the shipping address comprises a last used shipping address for a previous purchase by the user account.
