Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to making payments with a mobile device. In one example process, the device receives first authentication data, such as fingerprint authentication information, and second authentication data, such as a bank authorization code. The device then transmits a transaction request for a payment transaction. In another example process, the device detects activation of a physical input mechanism and detects a fingerprint using a biometric sensor. The device is enabled to participate in NFC payment transactions. In another example process, the device displays a live preview of images obtained via a camera sensor while the device detects partial credit card information of a credit card in a field of view of the camera sensor.

Dependent claims

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising one or more programs for execution by one or more processors of an electronic device with a display and a camera sensor, the one or more programs including instructions for:

displaying, on the display, a user interface comprising a credit card input affordance for receiving, at the electronic device, at least partial credit card information;
receiving selection of the credit card input affordance;
in response to receiving the selection of the credit card input affordance, concurrently displaying, on the display:
a live preview of images obtained via the camera sensor;
and
a manual credit card entry affordance that, when selected, triggers display of one or more text entry fields and a character entry control that includes a plurality of character keys for entering characters into a text entry field of the one or more text entry fields;
and
while concurrently displaying the live preview of images obtained via the camera sensor and the manual credit card entry affordance:
in accordance with detection of at least partial credit card information of a credit card in a field of view of the camera sensor, ceasing to display the manual credit card entry affordance and displaying the detected at least partial credit card information of the credit card on the display;
and
in accordance with a failure to detect at least partial credit card information of a credit card in a field of view of the camera sensor, maintaining display of the manual credit card entry affordance on the display.

8 more elements

A method, comprising:

at an electronic device with a display and a camera sensor:
displaying, on the display, a user interface comprising a credit card input affordance for receiving, at the electronic device, at least partial credit card information;
receiving selection of the credit card input affordance;
in response to receiving the selection of the credit card input affordance, concurrently displaying, on the display:
a live preview of images obtained via the camera sensor;
and
