Abstract

A method and system for facilitating a purchase of a good or a service is provided in which a transaction facilitation system is communicatively linked to a wireless user's provider and sends messages over a data channel to the wireless user that show up as part of a menu on the user's wireless device. The menu lists one ormore goods or services that the wireless user may request at his convenience. In response to the user selecting an item from the menu, the wireless device creates a message, such as an SMS digital message, which represents the request. The wireless device thentransmits the request back to the transaction facilitation system, which then sends a corresponding order for the good or service to a merchant who can fulfill the order. The order message may besent to the merchant via wireless data channel or by a wired network link, such as a wide-area network. The user may then, for example, pick up the good or receive the service.
