Systems, apparatus and methods for allowing cardholders to conveniently and securely purchase items online using an Internet-connected appliance. An Internet-connected appliance reads payment account data from a cardholder payment device and transmits a cardholder registration request to a gateway server. The Internet-connected appliance receives a cardholder verification request, prompts the cardholder to respond, transmits the response, receives a cardholder authentication message, and then stores the cardholder payment account data in a dedicated storage element. In an implementation, the Internet-connected appliance receives a purchase instruction for an online purchase, automatically generates and transmits a purchase transaction request, receives a purchase transaction response, and provides the purchase transaction response to the cardholder.

A transaction processing system for sending user information data to a personal device, and an associated method are provided. The system comprises: a personal device, such as a balance display card; an interface device, such as a card reader for transmitting data to and from the card; a communications network connecting to the interface device; an issuer processor connected to the communications network; and a trusted network processor (TNP) processor connected to the communications network, interposed between the interface device and the issuer processor. The TNP processor is arranged to receive a transaction request message from a card user and to transmit a response message back to the personal device, the response message typically being a transaction authorization together with information for display on the card. The TNP processor is arranged to identify, dependent on properties of the transaction request message, whether the associated response message will require data to be sent to the user information device, and if so identified, to: route the transaction request message to the issuer processor using a standard message; receive the required data from the issuer processor using another standard message; match the received required data to the original request; generate an appropriate response message and script containing the required data; and transmit the response message back to the personal device thereby making the required information known to the user.

A method of providing interaction options to a user of a device is described. The device is capable of receiving broadcast content from a broadcaster and content via a network. The method comprises receiving, at the device, both broadcast content and a call-to-action related to the broadcast content. The call-to-action is received via a network. The method includes presenting the broadcast content and the call-to-action to the user, receiving a trigger signal from the user in response to the call-to-action, and initiating, in response to the trigger signal, an interaction over the network between the user and a call-to-action party associated with the call-to-action. The method enables an interaction to be established between the user and the call-to-action party regardless of whether the call-to-action party is the same entity as or a different entity to the broadcaster.
