CONDUCTIVE PAYMENT DEVICE
First Claim
1. A payment system, comprising:
- a non-transitory memory storing payment receiving engine instructions;
one or more hardware processors coupled to the memory and operable to read the instructions from the memory to perform the steps of;
determining that a conductive payment device has been positioned immediately adjacent a touch sensitive payment receiving device;
detecting a plurality of conductive identification elements communicated from the conductive payment device to the touch sensitive payment receiving device and determining relative positions of at least some of the plurality of conductive identification elements;
retrieving user payment account information using the determined relative positions of the at least some of the plurality of conductive identification elements; and
sending a payment request over a network to make a payment using the user payment account information.

Abstract
Systems and methods for providing a payment include determining that a conductive payment device has been positioned immediately adjacent a touch sensitive payment receiving device. A plurality of conductive identification elements that are communicated from the conductive payment device to the touch sensitive payment receiving device are detected and the relative positions of at least some of the plurality of conductive identification elements are determined. User payment account information is then retrieved using the determined relative positions of the at least some of the plurality of conductive identification elements. A payment request is then sent over a network to make a payment using the user payment account information.
