User-friendly transaction interface
Methods and systems for facilitating electronic transactions on a user device are described. User-friendly graphical user interfaces (GUIs) are provided with minimal text and more pictures and images. The GUIs detect or receive various gesture inputs, such as swiping, tapping, and dragging and dropping, and display a corresponding screen or page. The gesture inputs allow a user to select or specify payers/payees, transaction amounts, and funding sources, without having to type numbers or letters.
1. A system comprising:
a non-transitory memory storing instructions; and
one or more hardware processors coupled to the non-transitory memory and configured to read the instructions from the non-transitory memory to cause the system to perform operations comprising:
displaying, on a graphical user interface (GUI) of the system, a list of contacts of a user;
receiving a selection of a contact from the list of contacts;
providing, via the GUI, available funding sources to the user;
receiving a selection of a funding source from the available funding sources from the user;
providing, via the GUI, a payment indicator;
receiving, via the GUI, a touch input that is associated with the payment indicator;
determining a transaction amount based on a time-dependent measurement of the touch input; and
providing, for display via the GUI, the transaction amount along with the payment indicator.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the time-dependent measurement of the touch input indicates a speed of the touch input.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the operations further comprise analyzing the speed of the touch input to determine a rate of increase or a rate of decrease of the transaction amount.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the time-dependent measurement of the touch input indicates a length of the touch input.
5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the operations further comprise analyzing the length of the touch input to determine a size of the transaction amount.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the determining the transaction amount is further based on a number of contact points used by the touch input.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the payment indicator comprises an image of the contact.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise receiving an input, via the GUI, that indicates an approval of the transaction amount.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the input indicates a gesture that drags and drops an image, displayed on the GUI, of the contact onto another image of another contact, the gesture indicating a request of a payment from the contact to the another contact.
10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the input indicates a gesture that drags and drops the transaction amount onto an image, displayed on the GUI, of the contact, the gesture indicating a request to pay the contact.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the input indicates a gesture that drags and drops an image, displayed on the GUI, of the contact onto the transaction amount, the gesture indicating a request of a payment from the contact.
12. A method, comprising:
generating, for display on a display device, a payment graphical user interface (GUI);
providing, via the payment GUI, a payment indicator;
receiving, via the payment GUI, a touch input that is associated with the payment indicator;
determining a transaction amount based on a time-dependent measurement of the touch input; and
providing, for display via the payment GUI, the transaction amount along with the payment indicator.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the time-dependent measurement of the touch input indicates a speed of the touch input.
14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising analyzing the speed of the touch input to determine a rate of increase or a rate of decrease of the transaction amount.
15. The method of claim 12 , wherein the time-dependent measurement of the touch input indicates a length of the touch input.
16. The method of claim 15 , further comprising analyzing the length of the touch input to determine a size of the transaction amount.
17. The method of claim 12 , wherein the determining the transaction amount is further based on a number of contact points used by the touch input.
18. A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon machine-readable instructions executable to cause performance of operations comprising:
generating, for display on a display device, a payment graphical user interface (GUI) comprising a list of contacts of a user;
providing, via the payment GUI, a payment indicator comprising an image of a selected contact from the list of contacts;
receiving, via the payment GUI, a touch input that is associated with the payment indicator;
determining a transaction amount based on a time-dependent measurement of the touch input; and
providing, for display via the payment GUI, the transaction amount along with the payment indicator.
19. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 18 , wherein the time-dependent measurement of the touch input indicates a speed of the touch input.
20. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 18 , wherein the time-dependent measurement of the touch input indicates a length of the touch input.
