The present invention relates generally to the field of systems capable of
managing the interaction between vendors and end users. To use the
system, a user first scans any common barcode using a mobile device. The
barcode information along with a user identification number is then sent
to a server. The server uses the user identification number to look up
the user's preferred vendors and content providers. The manufacturer code
from the barcode is also looked up in a vendor database. Once the
preferences have been determined, this information is sent to each vendor
and content provider which returns information, a list of options, and/or
other content. This information is then aggregated into a WAP page by the
server and transmitted to the mobile device. The user utilizes the mobile
device to select a content provider or vendor.
