A method for location-dependent determination comprises: determining, with one or more processors, a geographic location of a user's electronic device using first data; in response to determining the determined geographic location is insufficient for performing a location-dependent determination, requesting second data to determine an updated geographic location of the user's electronic device; performing, with an Application Programming Interface (API), the location-dependent determination based on the updated geographic location; and completing, with the API, a transaction using the location-dependent determination.

Location-based determinations

A method and apparatus for performing economic nexus determination by a transaction processing system. The method may include accessing a plurality of transactions associated with a plurality of merchant systems processed by the transaction processing system over a period of time. The method may also include inferring a geographic location, from among a plurality of geographic locations, for each of the plurality of transactions based on one or more transaction parameters. Then, the method may include aggregating a total revenue per geographic location per merchant system based on the inference of geographic location determined from the one or more transaction parameters. For a merchant and for a geographic location for which said merchant has location based revenue within the geographic location, the method may include applying an economic nexus rule corresponding to the geographic location, and determining when the economic nexus rule corresponding to the geographic location is satisfied.

A roaming gateway has at least one IP network interface, and at least one cellular network interface, and inter-working functions for inter-working between a wireless IP network and a cellular network. The inter-working functions communicate with user devices in an IP network according to a machine-level subscribe-and-notify event package protocol for managing handover of mobile devices roaming between IP and cellular networks. They also poll a cellular network for subscriber status on that cellular network in the absence of a mobility event package. The inter-working functions comprise HSS functionality programmed to access data on a HLR of a cellular network and to perform HSS operations using said data. The gateway applies routing policies specific to call types, allowing or disallowing the anchoring of calls originating in either an IP network or a cellular network based on number prefixes. The inter-working functions comprise an application server programmed to communicate with a user device as a client. The server provides a staging point for cellular supplementary services while anchoring calls, retrieving configurations from cellular network elements and applying appropriate routing based on these configurations and the current state of a call.
