<p>A method of providing e-commerce payment functionality between a customer and a vendor wishing to provide or accept alternate methods of payment. The vendor website initiates a transaction payment request identifying the selected customer payment method, the transaction amount, and the desired vendor payment method to a payment facilitation bureau which processes payment for the transaction amount to the selected customer payment method and issues transaction payment credentials to the vendor in a transaction payment response. The vendor e-commerce platform can then process payment for the transaction to the selected vendor payment method using the issued payment credentials. Various vendor payment methods and customer selected payment methods could be used, and the method allows for the bridging of incompatible pairings of payment methods. Client and server level software for use in this payment method is also disclosed.</p> |
