Abstract

Methods for completing an electronic commerce transaction based on at least one virtual coin flip. Users of electronic commerce place items for purchase in shopping carts and provide payment information, they may pay for or possibly wager for the items with coin flip(s). In cases where the where a user properly predicts correct coin flip result(s), the user receives items without charge. If not, the user pays for the items (or a portion of the items if more than one coin flip prediction is made). A user may challenge another user during checkout and wager the cost of one shopping basket against the other. A wagering fee may deducted by a third party during the transaction. The third party, which may be a different entity than the shopping entity may be awarded a commission by the shopping entity that equals a percentage of the items wagered on.
