    摘要： A controller is in communication with a plurality of vendors that are servicing customers, as well as with a plurality of “subsidizing” vendors seeking access to those customers. The controller receives from a first vendor an indication of one or more items that a customer is to purchase. In response, the controller transmits, on behalf of a subsidizing vendor, an indication of an offer for a subsidy such as a reduction in the customer's purchase price. If the customer accepts the offer, the controller provides an amount of funds from the subsidizing vendor to the first vendor. The controller may also retain a portion of the amount as payment. The controller also facilitates a transaction between the customer and the subsidizing vendor. For example, the customer may be required to sign up for a service (e.g. credit card account service) that is provided by the subsidizing vendor. By having the controller manage such a system by acting between subsidizing vendors and vendors that are servicing customers, a vendor need only communicate with the controller, rather than a plurality of other vendors.

    摘要翻译： 控制器与正在为客户服务的多个供应商以及寻求访问这些客户的多个“补贴”供应商进行通信。 控制器从第一供应商接收客户要购买的一个或多个物品的指示。 作为回应，控制人代表补贴供应商发送一种补贴要求的指示，例如减少客户的购买价格。 如果客户接受要约，控制人就会从补贴供应商向第一个供应商提供一定数量的资金。 控制者还可以将该金额的一部分保留为支付。 控制器还有助于客户和补贴供应商之间的交易。 例如，客户可能需要注册由补贴供应商提供的服务（例如信用卡帐户服务）。 通过使控制器通过在供应商和为客户服务的供应商之间进行协调来管理这样的系统，供应商只需要与控制器而不是多个其他供应商通信。
