Abstract
An embedded electronic payment (EEP) system allows various devices and appliances to act as a merchant to accept electronic payments. The EEP system can be formed on an integrated circuit or as a software applet to run on a virtual machine. The integrated chip can be a standard IC, an application specific integrated chip, programmable logic device, or a multiprocessor based microcontroller. The EEP system operates with a standard interface that can be adapted to many applications. As a result, the cost of payment integration is reduced. The reduced cost of inclusion allows electronic payment systems to be applied in systems and devices where cost margins previously prohibited custom electronic payment systems. When the EEP system is included as an integrated chip, the system has improved security and power consumption compared to software solutions.
