Abstract: ABSTRACT METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING PAYMENT TRANSACTION TRIGGERS FROM SATELLITE-POSITIONING SIGNALS A system and method for generating payment transaction triggers from satellite-positioning signals are described. A transaction-trigger-generation subsystem is architecturally separated from a transaction-processing subsystem: the generation subsystem converts the signals into a standardised transaction-trigger record, and an interoperable payment network distinct from any acquiring bank routes the record to the acquiring bank assigned to a zone, so any acquiring bank settles it without modifying that subsystem. Position reports from an on-board positioning unit are processed by a spatial containment unit applying, using a spatial index, a buffer prefilter and a point- in-polygon test to return a zone identifier; a temporal smoothing unit applies majority-vote correction over a sliding window; and a state machine detects entry and exit conditions, upon which the record is emitted. For distance-based embodiments, map-matching yields a geodesic distance. No physical trigger infrastructure is required at the zone. FIG. 1
