Devices, methods, and systems for interactions between intermediary devices and extrinsic client devices

Abstract

Computationally implemented methods and systems include acquiring an indication of a potential transaction between an extrinsic client configured to use an extrinsic client payment channel and a vendor configured to use a vendor payment channel that is at least partially different than the extrinsic client payment channel, negotiating an agreement to facilitate at least a portion of the potential transaction between the extrinsic client configured to use the extrinsic client payment channel and the vendor configured to use the vendor payment channel, and facilitating at least a portion of the potential transaction in a manner which is configured to appear to the vendor to use the vendor payment channel to facilitate the potential transaction, or is configured to appear to the extrinsic client to use the extrinsic client payment channel to facilitate the potential transaction. In addition to the foregoing, other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
