Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating supplemental information associated with a product or service to mobile devices. One device may be a mobile device that includes a memory, a microphone, and a processor in communication with the memory and the microphone, where the processor is configured to execute computer executable instructions to receive a tone via the microphone, where the tone comprises supplemental information. The processor is further configured to execute computer executable instructions to extract the supplemental information from the tone, and store the supplemental information in the memory of the mobile device. The device may further include the ability to initiate a purchase, using the mobile device, of a product or service associated with one or more tones received by the mobile device.
