Abstract

A method of transaction processing provides for obtaining gesture parameters, deriving a gesture area from the gesture parameters, querying a point of interest (POI) database system for a matching set of POIs, wherein a POI of the matching set of POIs is a matching POI matching the gesture area when a POI location of the POI and the gesture area meet a matching requirement, providing the matching set of POIs, or information thereof, to the initiator, identifying a selected POI from among the matching set of POIs, identifying a potential respondent device of a potential respondent associated with the selected POI, determining whether the potential respondent is to proceed with a transaction with the initiator and be a respondent, wherein the respondent interacts via a respondent device, obtaining transaction details from the initiator device, the respondent device, or both, and processing the transaction.
