Abstract

Transaction information from more than one supplier on a network-enabled portal is consolidated by a consolidation payment service and a user provides payment information to the consolidation payment service a single time to pay the suppliers. A consolidation payment service receives a first transaction data from a first supplier located on a network-enabled portal (800). The consolidation payment service receives a second transaction data from a second supplier located on the network-enabled portal (810). The consolidation payment service consolidates the first transaction data and the second transaction data. The consolidation payment service receives payment information a single time from a user (830) to pay the first supplier and the second supplier. The user is presented with a single transaction history that includes the first transaction data and the second transaction data (see Figure 5).
