Abstract
A computer-implemented system keeps records of communications between participants as a conversation. All communications between participants in a transaction are stored as part of the conversation including documents, photographs, forms etc. needed to complete the transaction. A computer system interacts with a wallet service of one or more participants to keep a record of, or to affect the transfer of, consideration between participants in the transaction. Conversations can occur for any topic or conversations for a particular topic can be selected and a template provided for documents and/or conversation participants most often needed to complete an associated transaction.
Claims12
A computer-implemented system for storing communications between participants, comprising:
- a processor configured to execute program instructions that cause the processor to store records of communications between two or more participants in a conversation that is directed to completing an underlying transaction;
- wherein the processor is configured to receive a notice from a participant in the conversation that consideration has been transferred between participants in order to complete the underlying transaction.
A non-transitory computer readable media for storing instructions that are executable by a processor on a computing device to:
- transmit a portion of a conversation to a participant along with an identifier of the conversation to allow the portion to be stored as a record;
- and
- instruct the transfer of consideration to another participant in the conversation along with the identifier of the conversation to allow the transfer to be stored in the record of the conversation.
