Abstract
A pay-per-click system and method for presenting pay-per-click information are disclosed. In one of many possible embodiments, information is provided remotely from a remote subsystem to an access device. The information includes hidden information and at least one link to the hidden information. The access device presents the link for consideration by a user of the access device. The hidden information is kept hidden by the access device until the user selects the link. The access device reveals the hidden information in response to the user selecting the link. The access device is able to reveal the hidden information by relying on information stored directly on the access device and without obtaining additional information from the remote subsystem or from another remote location.
