METHOD, USER TERMINAL, AND SERVICE TERMINAL FOR PROCESSING SERVICE DATA

摘要

A service terminal, which is communicatively coupled to a remote server, works with an offline user terminal to complete a service request initiated by a user of the user terminal. The service terminal repeatedly broadcasts a service message to neighboring user terminals until after receiving a service purchase request message wirelessly transmitted from a user terminal. The service terminal then suspends the broadcast of the service message and communicates the service purchase request to the remote server and receives a purchase confirmation message from the remote server. Next, the service terminal wirelessly transmits the purchase confirmation message back to the user terminal. From reading the purchase confirmation message, a user of the user terminal can tell whether the service purchase request has been completed successfully or not. If not, the service terminal then resumes the broadcast of the service message until after receiving another service purchase request message.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
at a service terminal having one or more processors and memory and a wireless signal transceiver, wherein the service terminal is communicatively coupled to a remote server:
repeatedly broadcasting a service message through the wireless signal transceiver, the service message including a service provider identifier and service-related information;receiving a first service purchase request message wirelessly transmitted from a first user terminal adjacent the service terminal, the first service purchase request message including the service-related information and service-purchasing authorization information;in response to receiving the first service purchase request message:
suspending the broadcast of the service message;transmitting the service-purchasing authorization information and the service provider identifier to the remote server;receiving a purchase confirmation message from the remote server; andwirelessly transmitting the purchase confirmation message to the first user terminal.
