摘要： An electronic amusement device and a method for operating the device are disclosed. In accordance with the present invention, a slot machine server controls a secondary game of chance played at a client slot machine. The server receives a player identifier corresponding to a player and a client identifier corresponding to a client slot machine. The server retrieves registration data relating to a secondary game of chance corresponding to the player identifier and the client identifier. The server further receives an outcome from the client slot machine and analyzes the outcome based on game requirements associated with the secondary game of chance, thereby determining whether the outcome satisfies at least one of the game requirements. Once all of the game requirements have been satisfied, the server updates a session status indicating the completion of the game requirements.

摘要： A method and system for connecting a caller to a content provider who provides a service to the caller over the telephone system is disclosed. In accordance with the invention, a transaction processor (i.e., debit card platform) is disclosed which generally receives a telephone call from a caller identifying (a) a first account identifier corresponding to a balance of a first account, the balance of the first account being associated with an amount of available funds, and (b) a content provider identifier corresponding to a telephone number of the content provider. The debit card platform establishes a telephone connection between the caller and the content provider to enable the content provider to provide a service to the caller through the telephone connection. During the course of the connection, the debit card platform continuously monitors the caller's amount of available funds in the first account and, upon occurrence of a “triggering event,” performs an action to increase the amount of available funds. The triggering event may be, e.g., the receipt of the telephone call, providing the caller with the cost of the service, the amount of available funds reaching a threshold value, or the expiration of a period of time. When the transaction is completed, the debit card platform debits the first account by a transaction amount based on the content provider and the service provided.
摘要翻译： 公开了一种用于将呼叫者连接到通过电话系统向呼叫者提供服务的内容提供商的方法和系统。 根据本发明，公开了一种交易处理器（即，借记卡平台），其通常从呼叫者接收电话呼叫，识别（a）对应于第一帐户的余额的第一帐户标识符，第一帐户的余额 与可用资金的数量相关联，以及（b）与内容提供商的电话号码相对应的内容提供商标识符。 借记卡平台在呼叫者和内容提供商之间建立电话连接，以使得内容提供商能够通过电话连接向呼叫者提供服务。 在连接过程中，借记卡平台持续地监视主叫方在第一帐户中的可用资金量，并且在“触发事件”发生时，执行增加可用资金量的动作。 触发事件可以是例如电话呼叫的接收，向呼叫者提供服务的费用，可用资金的数量达到阈值或一段时间的到期。 当交易完成时，借记卡平台以基于内容提供商和所提供的服务的交易金额借记第一帐户。
