PURCHASING USING A PHYSICAL OBJECT
First Claim
1. In a computing system including a user interface, a method of using the user interface to allow payment for physical or virtual goods to be made through a physical object, the method comprising:
- detecting a payment physical object, and payment capabilities associated with the payment physical object;
receiving user input, the user input comprising graphically dragging a physical or a virtual object to the detected payment physical object by dragging a graphical representation of the physical or the virtual object to the detected payment physical object; and
facilitating payment for the physical or virtual object using the payment capabilities associated with the payment physical object.

Abstract
Using a user interface to allow payment for physical or virtual goods to be made through a physical object. A method may be practiced in a computing system including a user interface. The method includes detecting a payment physical object, and payment capabilities associated with the payment physical object. User input is received. The user input includes at least one of physically dragging a physical object to the detected physical object, or graphically dragging the physical or a virtual object to the detected payment physical object by dragging a graphical representation of the physical or the virtual object to the detected payment physical object. Payment for the physical or virtual object is facilitated using the payment capabilities associated with the payment physical object.
