Abstract

Techniques, devices, and systems for performing actions, within an application provided by a service provider, without additional authorization requests are described. An example process includes receiving an access request to access an application on a user device, and presenting an interactive element via a user interface of the application, wherein the interactive element, when selected, causes a website of a merchant to load to an in-app browser within the application. The example process further includes receiving, via the in-app browser, a payment request to initiate a payment to the merchant from an account associated with the application, determining, based at least in part on the payment request, that the payment request originated from within the application, and based at least in part on the determining, causing the payment to be authorized without additional input from a user associated with the user device.
