The client system comprises a device fingerprint identifiable by the third party administrator, wherein the third party administrator computer system administers the purchase and sale transaction based on receiving account and payment account information associated with the internet content provider and the client system, respectively. The third party administrator authorizes payment upon a request received from the client system for which it identifies the device fingerprint.
