Disclosed are systems and methods that provide a framework that enables user to delegate other users as operators of their securely held account credentials via services backed by OAuth protocols. The disclosed framework provides functionality for users to be delegated access to other users' account credentials, information and resources for the performance of specific electronic transactions. The framework operates by connecting two OAuth registered users so that one user can perform an electronic transaction using another user's securely held credentials upon approval by the other user. This ensures that each electronic transaction is securely held and performed, and operated under the control of the delegator despite performance of the transaction by the delegatee involving the delegator's account information.
