The present inventions generally relate to a graphical user interface for releasing payments, and more particularly relates to a method and a system for providing an interactive graphical user interface for performing electronic transactions.
Recently, portable apparatuses provide not only call and data transmission services but also various services and functions including mobile payment. For example, a user may use a mobile device to make purchases and facilitate payments. In today's internet commerce, many payment transactions are made online via the internet.
The sale and purchase of goods and services between businesses results in the creation of accounts receivable and accounts payable for the creditor (“seller”) and the debtor (“buyer”), respectively. Traditionally, these accounts are maintained separately by the creditor and debtor, and are settled by payment of the outstanding obligation from debtor to creditor using checks, cash, clearing house transfers or wire transfers.
There is a need in the industry to streamline invoice payments from business standards. Therefore, there is a need of a method and a system for providing an interactive graphical user interface for performing electronic transactions that streamlines invoice payments.
