Abstract
A mobile device performs admixed transactions at a merchant. The mobile device receives a purchase amount. The mobile device connects to at least one other mobile device. Responsive to connecting to the at least one other mobile device, the mobile device receives account authorization for at least one other purchase amount. Responsive to receiving the account authorization from the at least one other device, the mobile device creates an admixed authorization. The admixed authorization comprises individual account authorizations for users of the mobile device and the at least one other mobile device. The mobile device initiates a single transaction at a merchant. The mobile device transfers the admixed authorization to the merchant. Each of the individual account authorizations are applied to the single transaction based on the purchase amount and the at least one other purchase amount authorized in the individual account authorizations.
