Abstract[English]
The invention presents a method and system for anonymously linking a requestor with a matched sponsor, enabling the sponsor to pay for a transaction on behalf of the requestor. The process involves a service provider's processor evaluating compatibility between the requestor and potential sponsors based on personal profiles and geolocation data. A sponsor within a specified radius is invited to pay for a transaction, such as purchasing a meal or donating to charity. The system facilitates the reservation of funds on the sponsor's payment card, ensures payment through authentication at a vendor's point-of-sale, and includes a facilitation fee for the service provider. The system allows anonymous communication between the requestor and sponsor without exchanging personal information. The system integrates geolocation data and communication protocols to ensure efficient matching, transaction processing, and notifications, with all parties receiving updates regarding the transaction's status.[French]
L'invention concerne un procédé et un système de mise en liaison anonyme d'un demandeur avec un commanditaire associé, permettant au commanditaire de payer une transaction au nom du demandeur. Le processus implique qu'un processeur du fournisseur de services évalue la compatibilité entre le demandeur et les commanditaires potentiels en fonction des profils personnels et des données de géolocalisation. Un commanditaire dans un rayon spécifié est invité à payer une transaction, telle que l'achat d'un repas ou un don à un organisme de bienfaisance. Le système facilite la réservation de fonds sur la carte de paiement du commanditaire, assure un paiement par authentification au point de vente d'un vendeur, et inclut des frais de facilitation pour le fournisseur de services. Le système permet une communication anonyme entre le demandeur et le commanditaire sans échange d'informations personnelles. Le système intègre des données de géolocalisation et des protocoles de communication pour assurer une mise en correspondance efficace, un traitement de transaction et des notifications, toutes les parties recevant des mises à jour concernant l'état de la transaction.
