Abstract:
A system is provided. The system comprises a computer, a processor, a memory, and an application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, receives a message that a communications device has accessed an electronic storefront. The system also determines the amount of funds presently credited to a deposit account associated with the communications device. The system also identifies a first group of products, the first group comprising the products available from the electronic storefront with prices equal to or less than the amount of funds presently credited to the deposit account. The system also transmits pricing information about each of the first group of products to the communications device. The system also transmits instructions to the communications device on arranging the pricing information for each of the first group of products in the display of the communications device.
