Abstract

Micro-payment systems have the potential to provide non-intrusive, high-volume and low-cost pay-as-you-use services for a wide variety of web-based applications. NetPay is one such micro-payment protocol. There is however not currently a way for some vendors who only want to use NetPay facilities temporarily. We propose an extension, Portal-NetPay micro-payment system where a portal or vendor acts as a purchasing portal to non-NetPay supporting vendors by redirecting page accesses to these vendors and charging the customers e-coins in the process. We describe the motivation for Portal-NetPay as well as four transactions of the Portal-NetPay protocol in detail to illustrate the approach. We then discuss future research on this protocol.
