1. A mobile device, comprising:
- radio frequency (RF) cellular circuitry comprising a transmitter configured to transmit and receive information over a network;
a memory configured to store biometric authentication information and payment information;
a biometric reading device configured to read biometric information;
one or more processors operably coupled to the memory, the RF cellular circuitry, and the biometric reading device, the one or more processors configured to execute instructions stored in the memory that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform operations of;
establishing a connection with a point of contact (POC), via the RF cellular circuitry, to conduct a secure transaction between the mobile device and the POC,prompting a user to provide the biometric information to the biometric reading device,reading the biometric information using the biometric reading device;
authenticating that the biometric information read by the biometric reading device is associated with the user associated with the payment information based at least in part on the biometric authentication information stored in the memory,in response to the authentication, generating a key, andsecuring the payment information stored in the memory; and
the transmitter configured to, controlled by the one or more processors, transmit the generated key and the secured payment information to the POC, via the RF cellular circuitry, to complete the secured transaction.

9. A method for secure transactions using a mobile device, comprising:
-
storing biometric authentication information and payment information in a memory of the mobile device; establishing a connection with a point of contact (POC), via RF cellular circuitry of the mobile device, to conduct a secure transaction between the mobile device and the POC, prompting a user to provide biometric information to a biometric reading device of the mobile device, reading the biometric information using the biometric reader; determining whether the biometric information read by the biometric reader corresponds to the biometric authentication information stored in the memory, thereby authenticating that the biometric information read by the biometric reader is associated with the user associated with the payment information; generating a key, securing the payment information stored in the memory; and transmitting the generated key and the secured payment information to the POC, via the RF cellular circuitry, to complete the secured transaction. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)
