Abstract
Systems and methods for processing subscriber and payee information include storing information identifying a first subscriber of an electronic payment service, and receiving information identifying an intended payee from a second subscriber. A determination is then made that the first subscriber and the intended payee of the second subscriber are the same entity. Such a determination may be confirmed and/or verified in a variety of ways. If confirmed, a payment may be made on behalf of the second subscriber to the first subscriber, now identified as a payee.
