Abstract
An intermediary host may enroll a user in a messaging-based transaction system. In particular, an intermediary host interfaces with a partner data store and compares a partner data store with an internal store. As a result, a user common to both the partner data store and the internal store may be identified. The user may be prompted to enroll in a messaging-based transaction system; or when the user already is enrolled in a messaging-based transaction system, receive a trusted transaction message to pay a bill for the partner using the messaging-based transaction system.
