20120203609 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A RETAIL AND INVESTMENT APPLICATION - A system for an Internet-based retail and investment platform includes a bank application and a retail market platform. All transactions between the bank application and the retail market platform utilize a system specific currency, which is issued by the bank. Customers open bank accounts with funds in the system specific currency and make payments for the purchase of goods and services offered through the retail market platform with the system specific currency. Goods and services are offered at a discounted price by the merchants that subscribe to the retail merchant. The discount is based on the difference between retail price and wholesale price. In return for the discount, the merchants receive access to value-added services. The discounts generate profits that are distributed to the system users as dividends. | 08-09-2012 |
20120110006 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A REMOTELY ACCESSIBLE WEB-BASED PERSONAL ADDRESS BOOK - A computer implemented method for providing a remotely accessible web-based address book includes the following steps. First, a user registers with a web-server and sets up an account. The web-server is configured to generate, store and provide access services to web-based address books. Next, the user uploads personal address book information and contacts in the account. Next, the web-server generates a personal web-based address book for the user based on the address book information and contacts and then adds voice tags and text tags to each entry in the user's personal web-based address book. Next, the web-server cross-correlates and matches the uploaded names and contact information of the user's personal contacts with information in other users' profiles stored in a central directory database. If a match exists between one of the uploaded user's personal contacts and a pre-existing user's profile in the central directory database, the web-server updates the pre-existing user's profile in the central directory database. If a match does not exist, the web-server generates a new user's profile in the central directory database. Next, the user accesses the personal web-based address book by placing a phone-call via a voice transmitting connection. Next, the web-server verifies the user's identity. Next, the user selects a personal contact in the user's personal web-based address book and the web-server places a phone-call to the selected personal contact. | 05-03-2012 |
