Electronic audible payment messaging

Abstract:

Embodiments disclosed in this specification include uploading instructions to a voice-recognition server, such that when the voice-recognition server identifies keywords in an audio stream, the voice recognition server can perform a payment transaction using a payment-service-system server. The systems and methods disclosed can receive payment requests at the payment-service-system server, which can then process the payment transaction using historical payment information and contact information associated with the payment-service-system user. The payment-service-system server can communicate notifications and confirmations to the voice-recognition server or to separate user computing devices. In this way, the payment-service-system server can process payment transactions between users using voice-controlled speakers.
