A system and method for presentation of feedback cues to a user of an interactive payment system is disclosed, wherein in one application, a payment product logo is displayed substantially concurrent with user entry of a payment product identifier, such as a credit card number. The subject invention
A system and method for presentation of feedback cues to a user of an interactive payment system is disclosed, wherein in one application, a payment product logo is displayed substantially concurrent with user entry of a payment product identifier, such as a credit card number. The subject invention further provides for the reduction of user confusion and errors with respect to entry of information related to a payment transaction. Moreover, the invention provides for reinforcement of payment product and/or service loyalty and branding.

Moreover, the invention provides for reinforcement of payment product and/or service loyalty and branding. d first, second, third and fourth air ports in said first valve; and 8) a spool valve assembly associated with each liquid pump assembly and having a component inlet port and a component outlet port, said inlet and outlet ports being connected to said chambers of said liquid pump assembly by passageways and a spool valve capable of directing incoming component entering from said inlet port to one chamber of said liquid pump assembly through a passageway and allowing outgoing component to exit from said chambers of said liquid pump assembly through a passageway to said component outlet port, each spool valve assembly being further connected to said first air cylinder by connecting rods, said spool valve assemblies for said first and second components being connected to said first and second terminal portions of said first air cylinder, respectively; such that when: 1) the first and second lines are pressurized with air, air flows from the first line to said second valve and through said first exhaust port and from the second line to the second terminal portion of said first cylinder, said first chambers of said liquid pump assemblies can fill with components through said spool valves attached thereto and components in said second chambers of said liquid pump assemblies can exit past said spool valve, while said piston with its rod moves across said liquid pump assembly and air exhausts through the third and fourth lines; 2) when the third and fourth lines are pressurized with air, air flows from the fourth line to said second valve and through said second exhaust port and from the third line to the first terminal portion of said first cylinder, said second chambers of said liquid pump assemblies fill with components through said spool valves attached thereto and components in said first chambers of said liquid pump assemblies exit past said spool valve and air exhausts through said first and second air ports; 3) when the first trip plate contacts the trip button in the first valve, the air pilot operator in the second valve, the piston and the spool valve simultaneously change direction, the piston and spool valve traveling in opposite directions, the pistons being operated by air pressure and the spool valves being mechanically operated. 2. A multi-component delivery system comprising: 1) a supply source for each component; 2) a multi-component proportioning system for a multi-component coating composition comprising: a) first, second, third and fourth pressurized air ports in a first valve assembly; b) said second and third pressurized air ports being connected to a first air cylinder proximate a first and second terminal portions thereof; c) said first and fourth ports being connected to an air cylinder associated with a second valve at the first and second terminal portions thereof; d) first and second exhaust ports on said second valve and being connected to a second cylinder proximate the first and second terminal portions thereof and to quick exhaust valves; e) a liquid pump assembly for each component, said liquid pump assembly comprising a piston which moves between a first and second chamber for said component and a piston rod attached to said piston extending beyond said pump assembly; f) a first and second trip plate adapted for contact with said piston rod associated with said liquid pump assemblies for said first and second component; p2 g) an air pilot operator connected to said trip plate, said air pilot operator being adapted to contact a trip button in said first valve, said trip button determining air flow to said first, second, third and fourth air ports in said first valve; and h) a spool valve assembly associated with each liquid pump assembly and having a component inlet port and a component outlet port, said inlet and outlet ports being connected to said chambers of said liquid pump assembly by passageways and a spool valve capable of directing incoming component entering from said i nlet port to one chamber of said liquid pump assembly through a passageway and allowing outgoing component to exit from said chambers of said liquid pump assembly through a passageway to said component outlet port, each spool valve assembly being further connected to said first air cylinder by connecting rods, said spool valve assemblies for said first and second components being connected to the first and second terminal portions of said first air cylinder, respectively; such that when: a) the first and second lines are pressurized with air, air flows from the first line to the second valve and through the first exhaust port and from the second line to the second terminal portion of the first cylinder, the first chambers of the liquid pump assemblies can fill with components through the spool valves attached thereto and components in the second chambers of the liquid pump assemblies can exit past the spool valve, while the piston with its rod moves across the liquid pump assembly and air exhausts through the third and fourth lines; b) when the third and fourth lines are pressurized with air, air flows from the fourth line to the second valve and through the second exhaust port and from the third line to the first terminal portion of the first cylinder, the second chambers of the liquid pump assemblies fill with components through the spool valves attached thereto and components in the first chambers of the liquid pump assemblies exit past the spool valve and air exhausts through the first and second air ports; c) when the first trip plate contacts the trip button in the first valve, the air pilot operator in the second valve, the piston and the spool valve simultaneously change direction, the piston and spool valve traveling in opposite directions, the pistons being operated by air pressure and the spool valves being mechanically operated. 3) means for connecting each supply source to the component inlet port on a spool valve assembly; 4) means for connecting each component outlet port to a dispenser adapted to individually deliver the components to a coating device. 3. A method of using a multi-component proportioning system for a multi-component coating composition comprising the steps of: 1) providing an air pilot valve assembly comprising first and second 4-way, 5-port valves, each valve having a pressurized air inlet, said first valve having first and second Y-connectors and an air pilot operator adapted to trip a trip button within said first valve to direct air flow to said Y-connectors and said second valve having first and second air inlet ports and first and second primary exhaust ports; 2) providing a liquid pump assembly for each of at least two components, said liquid pump assembly comprising a piston which moves between a first and second chamber for said component and a piston rod attached to said piston extending beyond said pump assembly, each of said liquid pump assembly piston rods for said first and second components being adapted to contact a trip plate, and said trip plate being connected to a piston rod adapted to traverse a second cylinder; 3) providing a spool valve assembly associated with each liquid pump assembly and having a component inlet port and a component outlet port, said inlet and outlet ports being connected to said chambers of said liquid pump assembly by passageways and a spool valve capable of directing incoming component entering from said inlet port to one chamber of said liquid pump assembly through a passageway and allowing outgoing component to exit from said other chamber of said liquid pump assembly through a passageway to said component outlet port, each spool valve assembly being further connected to a first air cylinder by connecting rods, the spool valve assemblies for said first and second components being connected to the first and second terminal portions of said first air cylinder, respectively; 4) when discharge of components through component outlet po
