Abstract
Methods and systems for providing business information to a user or merchant, without revealing sensitive consumer or merchant information are described. A user/consumer or merchant/retailer sends a request for business information to a service provider. Business information includes, for example, customer location, customer feedback, customer spending behavior, volume of purchases, and retailers visited. The service provider receives the request and accesses its database to aggregate the business information. A graph, chart, or list of the business information is then provided to the user and/or merchant.
