Abstract
A process for facilitating payment between a buyer and a seller with an online money transfer performed over a wide area network is disclosed. In one step, login information relevant to a vending site is received. The login information is associated with the seller. Listings at the vending site associated with the seller are automatically determined. A number of snippets of HTML code are generated for the listings, wherein each snippet includes a link. One of the number of snippets is automatically inserted into each of the listings. Activation of the link points a web browser to a payment enabler that can transfer money from the buyer to the seller.
