The payment request can include a payment amount and a micropayment account identification identifying a pre-pay account or a post-pay account. In the event the payment request is for a pre-pay type of account and the payment amount is greater than a balance associated with the account, then a credit card account associated with the micropayment account is charged with a top off amount plus the difference between the payment amount and the remaining balance. In the event, the payment request is for a post-pay type of account and the payment amount is greater than the balance associate with the account, then a credit account associated with the micropayment account is charged with an amount equal to a credit limit plus the difference between the payment amount and the remaining credit. | 03-04-2010 |
