Patent ID: 10592792

Abstract:
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for converting barcodes to facilitate fast and convenient payments. In one embodiment, the systems and methods are for imaging a first barcode having a first barcode format; determining a second barcode format used at a point-of-service; converting the first barcode to a second barcode in the second format; and generating an image of the second barcode. In another embodiment, a service provider barcode-conversion system receives with a communications interface an image of a first barcode having a first barcode format from a customer; determines with a processor a second barcode format used at a point-of-service; generates with the processor an image of a second barcode in the second barcode format; generates with the processor a link between the first barcode and the second barcode; stores in memory the first barcode, the second barcode, and the link between the first barcode and second barcode; and transmits with the communications interface the image of the second barcode to the customer.
