    wherein the cloud-based application includes one or more of the following;

    a media player, a multimedia library, an online radio broadcaster, an online store selling software applications for the mobile and wearable device, and a mobile and wearable device management application to play, download, purchase, organize multimedia, send multimedia gift cards, and synchronize multimedia with a portable device and one or more internet-connected devices, wherein the cloud-based application is configured to prompt the user to purchase and download one or more or the following;

    music, music videos, television shows, audio books, movies, and movie rentals, and wherein the cloud-based application is associated with the mobile and wearable device of the user;

    receiving, from the user, a registration request to register the user in a mobile payment service, wherein the user sends the registration request via the cloud-based application associated with the mobile and wearable device, the cloud-based application being associated with providing a free Voice over Internet Protocol service and a free Over-the-Top service;

    securing the mobile and wearable device via a band to a part of a human body, the part of the human body including one or more of the following;

    a wrist, an arm, a neck, a bead, a leg, a waist, an ear, and a finger, securing, via the band, the mobile and wearable device being secured under, within or on clothing;

    operably connecting a database to the mobile and wearable device, wherein the database is configured to store financial information of the user provided during the registering of the user;

    associating the mobile and wearable device with an electronic payment card configured to act as one or more of a smart card, a proximity card, an integrated circuit card, a magnetic strip card, a Europay, MasterCard, and Visa (EMV) smart payment card, and an electronic payment card, the electronic payment card storing card data of one or more of debit cards, credit cards, gift cards, loyalty cards, prepaid cards, bank cards, identity cards, and membership cards, wherein the mobile and wearable device is equipped with an integrated smartcard, wherein the user waves the mobile and wearable device near a reader module to make a payment to the reader module;

    providing, by the processor of the mobile and wearable device, a payment and multimedia capture interface on a display of the mobile and wearable device, wherein the payment and multimedia capture interface includes a haptic control configured to sense a haptic input of the user, wherein the payment and multimedia capture interface is further configured to receive a selection of an activity operation, wherein the activity operation includes one or more of the following;

    a messaging operation and a calling operation, wherein the receiving of the selection of the activity operation includes one or more of the following;

    a voice command, a haptic interaction with a touchscreen of the mobile and wearable device, and a move command;

    sensing the haptic input via the haptic control, wherein the haptic input includes a touch of the user to the haptic control;

    analyzing the haptic input to determine a duration of the haptic input;

    based on the duration of the haptic input, selecting an operation from a list of predetermined operations to be performed by the cloud-based application, wherein the predetermined operations include at least a payment operation and a multimedia capture operation, wherein the mobile and wearable device is operable to perform both the payment operation and the multimedia capture operation, wherein the payment operation is associated with a payment request of the user;

    in response to the multimedia capture operation being selected;

    capturing multimedia by a camera of the mobile and wearable device, the multimedia being stored to the cloud storage, wherein the multimedia includes a photo, a video, and a geographic location, and wherein the capturing includes grabbing screenshots off the mobile and wearable device, the screenshots including links including one or more of the following;

    a Shop Now Link, a Book Now Link, a Download link, a Learn More link, a Buy Now link, the Pay Now link, and a Sign Up link;

    selecting the haptic control for a particular type of multimedia content to be captured to provide captured multimedia;

    analyzing data associated with the haptic control;

    based on the analyzing, selecting one or more multimedia types for recording from the captured multimedia based on predetermined rules associated with a predetermined time of the providing the haptic control by the user;

    sending a command to a sensor of the mobile and wearable device to capture multimedia of the selected one or more multimedia types based on the predetermined rules;

    storing the one or more multimedia types in a memory, wherein the cloud-based application is coupled to a payment processor;

    in response to the payment operation being selected;

    receiving payment details associated with the user from the cloud storage, the payment details being used to perform a payment via the mobile and wearable device;

    encrypting the payment request associated with the payment operation to obtain an encrypted payment request, wherein the encrypted payment request is decrypted by a further payment and multimedia application associated with a mobile and wearable device of a recipient, wherein the encrypted payment request is removed from the mobile and wearable device of the recipient after the encrypted payment request is optically read;

    transmitting the encrypted payment request to a financial organization; and

    storing information associated with the payment in the mobile and wearable device associated with the user, wherein the payment operation is authorized in part when a geographic location determined by the mobile and wearable device matches a geographic location of a merchant at a time of the selecting of the payment operation;

    wherein the mobile and wearable device is operable to obtain information about a payment system of the user, wherein the mobile and wearable device is operable to generate and display a barcode that encodes user payment information, the barcode being scanned and processed at a checkout counter to retrieve the user payment information from a database of a payment processing system, payment information being used to transfer funds between the user and a service provider for an amount of the payment, wherein the service provider includes a merchant or a multimedia provider; and
