First Claim
1. A payment card, comprising:
- an input and an output for communicating with a point of interaction, in connection with a transaction by a consumer at the point of interaction involving the consumer presenting the payment card to the point of interaction; and
a processor in communication with the input and the output, the processor configured to;
communicate with the point of interaction in connection with the transaction;
store data specific to the transaction in a data store on the payment card during the course of the transaction, the data specific to the transaction including at least one of a transaction amount for the transaction, an identification of a transaction item relating to the transaction, a date/time of the transaction, and a transaction identifier for the transaction; and
in response to an interruption in the communication with the point of interaction during the course of the transaction, retrieve the data specific to the transaction stored in the data store in order to resume the transaction with the point of interaction when communication with the point of interaction is restored.

Abstract
Methods and devices are provided for use in facilitating transactions between transaction devices and points of interactions. In connection therewith, one transaction device generally includes an input and an output for communicating with a point of interaction with regard to a transaction by a consumer at the point of interaction involving the transaction device. The transaction device also includes a processor in communication with the input and the output. The processor is configured to interact with the point of interaction in connection with the transaction, store transaction data relating to the transaction in a data store during the course of the transaction, and, in response to an interruption in the transaction with the point of interaction, retrieve transaction data stored in the data store in order to resume the transaction with the point of interaction when communication with the point of interaction is restored.

9. A computer-implemented method for use in facilitating a transaction between a transaction device and a point of interaction, the transaction device comprising a data store, and a processor in communication with the data store and arranged to process transaction data with the point of interaction, the method comprising:
-
storing, by the processor, transaction data relating to a transaction in the data store during the course of the transaction; in response to an interruption in the transaction with the point of interaction, retrieving, by the processor, transaction data stored in the data store in order to resume the transaction with the point of interaction; and clearing, by the processor, the transaction data stored in the data store following completion of the transaction. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A non-transitory computer readable storage media including computer-executable instructions for use in facilitating a transaction by a consumer using a payment card at a point of interaction, which when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
-
store data specific to the transaction in a data store included in the payment card during the course of the transaction, the data specific to the transaction including at least one of a transaction amount for the transaction, an identification of a transaction item relating to the transaction, a date/time of the transaction, and a transaction identifier for the transaction; in response to an interruption in the transaction with the point of interaction, suspend the transaction; and when the interruption in the transaction is complete; determine whether the data store includes transaction data for the suspended transaction; and when the data store includes transaction data for the suspended transaction, retrieve the data specific to the transaction stored in the data store in order to resume the transaction with the point of interaction. - View Dependent Claims (17)
