ABSTRACT:
A computer implemented method for facilitating a transaction between a subscriber and a vendor through an intermediary may include: receiving, at the intermediary, personal information from the subscriber to establish a user account; storing the personal information for subsequent access; receiving a request from the subscriber to access the user account, upon which the subscriber's identity is verified by the intermediary against the personal information; the intermediary entering into a transaction with the vendor on behalf of the subscriber based on the subscriber's instruction once the subscriber's identity is successfully verified; and notifying the subscriber upon completion of the transaction. Importantly, the transaction is completed without disclosing the subscriber's personal information to the vendor. As such, the consumer remains anonymous with respect to the vendor.
