Using payment mode rankings responsive to item attributes
First Claim
1. A computing system comprising:
- means for obtaining at least a first mode ranking and a second mode ranking responsive to one or more categorical attributes of a first item and to one or more payment mode use constraints;
means for transmitting at least an indication of a first payment mode responsive to at least the first mode ranking or the second mode ranking; and
wherein each of the means for obtaining and the means for transmitting is non-transitory, and wherein at least one of the means for obtaining or the means for transmitting is at least partially implemented using hardware, further comprising a processor and in which the means for obtaining at least a first mode ranking and a second mode ranking responsive to one or more categorical attributes of a first item and to one or more payment mode use constraints comprises;
means for associating a common control with a payment indication of the first item to a first payee by the first payment mode and with a payment indication of a second item to a second payee by a second payment mode;
means for displaying the common control in a grid cell, the grid cell indicating an association between the first payment mode and the first item;
means for displaying an indication of at least the first item, the second item, the first payment mode, the second payment mode, and the first mode ranking via a common image;
means for transmitting an authorization to use the first payment mode;
means for detecting an actuation of the common control; and
wherein the computing system comprises at least one of an application-specific integrated circuit, a specialized computer, or a field-programmable gate array.

Abstract
A system may include obtaining first and second mode ranking based on categorical attributes of a first item and on payment mode use constraints and transmitting an indication of a first payment mode responsive to the first or the second mode ranking. The obtaining may include associating a common control with a payment indication of the first item to a first payee by the first payment mode and with a payment indication of a second item to a second payee by a second payment mode, displaying the common control in a grid cell indicating an association between the first payment mode and the first item, displaying an indication of the first item, the second item, the first payment mode, the second payment mode, and the first mode ranking via a common image, transmitting an authorization to use the first payment mode, and detecting an actuation of the common control.

34. A computing system having at least one processor, comprising:
-
the at least one processor configured for obtaining at least a first mode ranking and a second mode ranking responsive to one or more categorical attributes of a first item and to one or more payment mode use constraints; and at least one transmitting device configured for transmitting at least an indication of a first payment mode responsive to at least the first mode ranking or the second mode ranking, wherein the at least one transmitting device configured for transmitting at least an indication of a first payment mode responsive to at least the first mode ranking or the second mode ranking comprises; the at least one processor configured for associating a common control with a payment indication of the first item to a first payee by the first payment mode and with a payment indication of a second item to a second payee by a second payment mode; a user interface and a display configured to display in a common image, the common control, the first item, the second item, the first payment mode, and the second payment mode; and the user interface and the display, further configured to detect a user actuation of the common control.
