Abstract

A system and application for purchasing one or more items via quick online transactions from a vendor system is provided. An electronic shopping page listing products for sale and corresponding buy selectors is provided on a user device that includes the quick transaction system. Upon user selection of a buy selector, the user'"'"'s log on status and payment information are determined, and, if necessary, the user is prompted to log on to the quick transaction application and/or complete any missing user payment information if necessary. A single click or tap on the buy selector generates a completed purchase transaction without the need for a shopping cart or user checkout process. Methods and machine-readable medium for quick online transactions are also provided.

not providing an electronic cart, associated with a quick transaction system, for a user to place products displayed on the electronic page for subsequent purchase;

determining, by the one or more processors, if the user is logged in to the quick transaction system when the user selects the buy selector;

determining, by the one or more processors, if the quick transaction system has required user information of the user to complete a purchase transaction when the user selects the buy selector; and

,

providing, by the one or more processors, for an immediate processing of the purchase transaction if the user is determined to be logged in to the quick transaction system and the required user information is present in the quick transaction system.

2. The system of claim 1, further comprising:

providing, on the display, a user interface requesting that the user log in to the quick transaction system if it is determined that the user is not logged in to the quick transaction system; and

,

providing for processing of the purchase transaction after the user logs in to the quick transaction system and if the required user information is present in the quick transaction system.

3. The system of claim 1, further comprising:

providing, on the display, a user interface requesting that the user provide any missing required user information to the quick transaction system if it is determined that the quick transaction application does not have the required user information of the user to complete a purchase transaction; and

,

providing for processing of the purchase transaction after the user provides the missing required user information to the quick transaction system and if the user is determined to be logged in to the quick transaction system.

4. The system of claim 1, further comprising:

providing, on the display, a user interface, the user interface comprising;

a request that the user log in to the quick transaction system if it is determined that the user is not logged in to the quick transaction system; and

,

a request that the user provide any missing required user information to the quick transaction system if it is determined that the quick transaction system does not have the required user information of the user to complete a purchase transaction; and

,

providing for processing of the purchase transaction after the user logs in to the quick transaction system and the user provides the missing required user information to the quick transaction system.

5. The system of claim 1, further comprising:

providing, on the display, a user interface that includes product options for a corresponding displayed product for sale when the user selects the buy selector; and

,

providing for processing of the purchase transaction after the user selects one or more of the product options if the user is logged in to the quick transaction system and if the quick transaction application has the required user information of the user to complete the purchase transaction.

6. The system of claim 1, further comprising:

providing, on the display, a user interface that provides an indication that payment for the purchase transaction is being processed.

7. The system of claim 6, further comprising:

providing, on the display, another user interface that provides confirmation that the purchase transaction has been processed and that provides a continue shopping selector.

8. The system of claim 7, further comprising:

providing, by the one or more processors, for an immediate completion of a second purchase transaction if the user selects a second buy selector associated with a second product.
