A system according to an embodiment comprises a plurality of searchable machine-readable transaction records associated with a plurality of user accounts, the searchable machine-readable transaction records comprising transaction information associated with a plurality of user-merchant transactions, wherein the transaction information is provided by merchant server(s) and is captured and passed by one or more users to the system in response to a determination performed at a respective client device of the user(s) that a webpage comprises transaction information such that an address of the webpage matches an address in a transaction webpage database; one or more processors; and one or more memories adapted to store a plurality of machine-readable instructions which when executed by the processor(s) are adapted to cause the system to provide: a transaction record processing application configured to store the captured transaction information in the searchable machine-readable transaction records associated with the user accounts on the system.

Various methods and systems are provided to permit the storage of online transaction records associated with user-merchant transactions facilitated by a payment service provider. In accordance with an embodiment of the disclosure, a method of processing transaction information comprises receiving a webpage at a client device, wherein the webpage has an associated webpage address. The method also includes comparing the webpage address with a transaction webpage database. If the webpage address matches an address of the transaction webpage database, the method includes: capturing at least a portion of the webpage corresponding to transaction information associated with a user-merchant transaction, and passing the transaction information over a network in order to facilitate storage of the transaction information in a transaction record.

Various methods and systems are provided to permit the storage of online transaction records associated with user-merchant transactions facilitated by a payment service provider. In one example, such transaction records may be aggregated by the payment service provider to permit a user to search the records. In another example, such transaction records may be associated with user-selectable links to permit users to reorder previously purchased items referenced by the transaction records. In yet another example, such transaction records may be associated with warranty information to permit users to conveniently view warranty details associated with previously purchased items. In a further example, a client device may be implemented to determine whether a webpage includes transaction information associated with a user-merchant transaction. The transaction information may be captured and passed by the client device over a network in order to facilitate storage of the transaction information in a transaction record.
