Patent attributes
Methods and systems for transaction division are disclosed herein. An example system may allow the cost of a cart of items (e.g., one or more items) to be easily shared among multiple consumers. In order to partition the cost with other potential payees, the system may provide an interface that allows an initial consumer to send notifications that invite other potential participants to share the cost of the cart based on amounts specified by the initial consumer. The system may also determine when the total cost of the cart has been received and notify the seller accordingly. In some instances, the system may generate a token that corresponds to the transaction for the cart of items and use the generated token to detect when other portions of the total cost for the cart are received.
