Abstract
A method for conducting a transaction is provided wherein a consumer prepays for a service in a traditional retail transaction to obtain a voucher that allows the customer, at a later time and date, to complete the enrollment process in order to obtain the underlying service. In general operation, a customer selects a desired service that is represented by a tangible product representation, such as a gift card or the like. That product representation is then presented to the cashier at the retail location like any other product and the customer pays the cashier for the product. The settlement value for the retail transaction is sent to the service provider and the customer uses the product representation to contact the service provider to complete the transaction for services and establish a contract or account.
