`
`customertoapplystoredvaluefrommultiplesourcestoasingletransaction.Because
`
`
`
`
`
`the system is linked to the customer'sidentity, it can consolidate stored value items from
`multiple sources (e.g., merchants, manufacturers, or other consumers) into a single
`account.
`For any transaction, the system can automatically determine all relevant
`stored value items, regardless of the source. For example, in a single transaction the
`system may determine that a manufacturer coupon and a merchant gift card are
`available. Because the stored value items are linked to the customer's account, the
`
`system can also notify the customerof available stored value items.Thisallowsthe
`
`
`
`
`
`customertodeterminewhichstoredvalueitemstoapplytoaparticulartransaction.For
`example, if the stored value item is a discountoff the total price of the transaction, the
`customer may direct the system to save the coupon for a later transaction that will be
`
`larger, resulting in greater savings to the customer.

`“purchaser identifier”
`
`The Institution Decision was correct
`
`The Claims
`•
`“The claim does not specify where [the purchaser] identifier is from or where it is
`stored.” Institution Decision, 11.
`“The claim is silent as to storing or retrieving an address for the mobile device.”
`Institution Decision, 11.
`
`•
`
`The Specification
`•
`“Here, contrary to Patent Owner’s arguments, the specification supports a broad
`construction.” Institution Decision, 11
`• Given this broad disclosure, we find that, contrary to Patent Owner’s arguments,
`the specification does not support Patent Owner’s contention that “the purchaser
`identifier cannot be the address of the customer’s mobile device.” Institution

`Athletic Alternatives is inapplicable
`
`“Were we to allow AAI successfully to assert the broader of the two senses of ‘between’
`against Prince, we would undermine the fair notice function of the requirement that
`the patentee distinctly claim the subject matter disclosed in the patent from which he
`can exclude others temporarily. Where there is an equal choice between a broader and a
`narrower meaning of a claim, and there is an enabling disclosure that indicates that the
`applicant is at least entitled to a claim having the narrower meaning, we consider the
`notice function of the claim to be best served by adopting the narrower meaning.”

`“We decline Patent Owner’s invitation to read an additional step of ‘retrieving the address

`Patent Owner’s only basis for reading this step into the claim is that the preferred
`embodiment performs this step. Id. at 8–9. But the fact that the method of the preferred
`embodiment may perform additional steps not recited in this claim does not form a
`basis for reading those steps into the claim. ‘A claim is not defective when it states

`about the determined one or more stored value items;

`“Fraud prevention may be a potential benefit to using an authorization request, but we

`
`The Claims of the ’852 Patent are “open” claims
`
`“Further, claims 5 and 8 use the signal ‘comprising,’ which is generally understood to
`signify that the claims do not exclude the presence in the accused apparatus or
`method of factors in addition to those explicitly recited. The signal ‘comprising’
`implements the general rule that absent some special circumstance or estoppel which
`excludes the additional factor, infringement is not avoided by the presence of elements or
`steps in addition to those specifically recited in the claim.”
