Abstract

A hybrid sales method that bridges a gap between the online world and physical stores uses a network of at least one user interactive network device for operation by a registered user desiring to conduct a transaction at a physical store, at least one central network device, and at least one merchant network device. The method includes the steps of allowing an access to the central network device by the registered user using the user interactive network device, allowing the registered user to send a user request for information relating to a transaction from the user interactive network device to the central network device, causing the merchant network device and the central network device to communicate, generating a summary response at the central network device in response to the user request, sending the summary response from the central network device to the user interactive network device, and displaying the summary response at the user interactive network device. The method further includes the step of notifying the central network device, the merchant network device, or the user interactive network device, when the registered user goes to a physical store to complete the transaction.
