A credit card transaction authorization method includes receiving
information concerning a prospective remote credit card transaction with
a credit card, obtaining location information from a wireless network
provider for a wireless terminal that is associated with a cardholder of
the credit card for the prospective credit card transaction, and
correlating a location of the wireless terminal with a registered
purchasing location associated with the user. Authorization information
for the prospective credit card transaction may be generated in response
to a result of the correlation of the location of the wireless terminal
and the registered purchasing location. Credit card transaction servers
and computer program products are also provided.
