Patent attributes
Methods and devices for conducting a payment transaction between a paying terminal and a selling terminal via a remote server. In some embodiments, the paying terminal scans an encrypted image, such as a two-dimensional code, displayed on the selling terminal. The paying terminal decrypts the encrypted image to obtain payment information and sends a payment request to the remote server for processing. Security verifications may be conducted by the paying terminal or the server, and the server may generate processing results approving or denying the payment request accordingly. When the payment amount is greater than a preset value, additional verification can be carried out using, e.g., biometric information. The paying terminal and/or the selling terminal then display the processing results and the remote server completes the payment transaction.
