Abstract
A transaction system has Internet-connected partner platforms which display webpages with an Offer-Now button initiating coded instructions to display an electronic input form enabling a person to configure a transaction offer, and an Internet-connected service enterprise providing the coded instructions to the partners, configured specifically to partner requirements. Upon the person activating the Offer Now button from a mobile device, a verification code is sent to the device, to be returned to verify the device, and offer input provided through the device and the electronic form is tracked to be saved as an offer for the transaction.
