Abstract:
The present invention pertains to the field of rechargeable payment cards. The present invention pertains to a payment method by prepaid bankcard provided by a financial intermediary of a transaction with a merchant comprising the recharging steps consisting of modifying on the management server the information relative to the balance available to the holder of the holder of the bankcard, characterized in that: the recharging is implemented via the intermediary of a prepaid coupon with which is associated a unique identification number and to which corresponds a predefined amount: said management server moreover comprises a database of unique coupon numbers as well as the validity status and the value corresponding to the coupons; and in which said recharging steps comprise; -A step of transmission of said coupon identifier and said bankcard identifier to said management server; -A step of verification by said management server of the validity of the received coupon identifier; -A step of determination of the numeric value of the amount associated with the coupon; -A step of modification of the validity status of the consumed coupon; -A step of updating the account balance of said bankcard.

Abstract:
An integrated circuit digital processor is coupled to either a main program memory or a secondary program memory, wherein the secondary program memory may be low power, high reliability, non-volatile and/or fast memory that may store a limited number of critical program instructions and data for execution by the digital processor. A program memory switch may couple the digital processor to either the main program memory or the secondary program memory. This is particularly advantageous in that the secondary program memory may have attributes not economically feasible with the main program memory. A program memory controller may handle the selection of which of these memories that the digital processor is using to obtain its program instructions, and necessary control signals for switching and operation thereof.
Abstract:
A system and method for automated population of data fields present on a webpage. In a preferred embodiment a form fill utility plugin functioning on a user's computer detects the presence of data fields requesting user information elements upon load of a webpage. The user accesses the website server to display a webpage. The webpage includes at least one data field adapted to request a user information element. The form fill utility modifies the webpage to determine the user information elements requested by the at least one data field and retrieves user information elements that match the user information requested by the at least one data field from a database server. The form fill utility then further modifies the webpage to automatically populate each of the at least one data fields with at least one matching user information element.
