A method of purchasing products and services utilizes a service provider system. The service provider system offers products for sale through the service provider system directly, and also through associated merchants that are authorized to be associated with the service provider system. Members are enrolled in the service provider system. Points are awarded to members for purchases of products through the service provider system and the associated merchants. Points utilized by members, through the service provider system or associated merchants, are tax free for federal income tax purposes when the points are applied for, (i) health related products and services, (ii) payment of health insurance premiums, (iii) deposit into a Health Savings Account or a similarly approved account, and purchase of a (iv) health care plan. |
