A decoding system runs on a mobile device and is coupled to a payment system. The decoding engine decodes signals produced from a read of a first party's financial transaction card. A transaction engine runs on the mobile device and is coupled to the decoding engine. The transaction engine receives as its input decoded first party's financial transaction card information from the decoding engine. A payment system, in communication with the transaction engine, includes at least one of, a user database, a product database, and transaction database.

1. A decoding system coupled to a payment system, comprising: a decoding engine running on a mobile device, the decoding engine in operation decoding signals produced from a read of a buyer's financial transaction card, the decoding engine in operation accepting and initializing incoming signals from the read of the buyer's financial transaction card until the signals reach a steady state, detecting the read of the buyer's financial transaction card once the incoming signals are in the steady state, identifying peaks in the incoming signals and digitizing identified peaks in the incoming signals into bits;a transaction engine running on the mobile device and coupled to the decoding engine, the transaction engine in operation receiving as its input decoded buyer's financial transaction card information from the decoding engine; andthe transaction engine being configured to be coupled to a card reader with a sourcing power device. 2. The decoding system of claim 1, further comprising: a user interaction engine configured to utilize a touch screen of the mobile device wherein a buyer or a merchant can input at least one of numbers, characters, and signatures by touching the touch screen. 3. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding system is configured to be coupled to a social network. 4. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein a buyer is a member of a social network. 5. The decoding system of claim 4, wherein a buyer's mobile device includes identifying information of second parties that are members of the social network. 6. The decoding system of claim 5, wherein a buyer communicates with at least some of the second parties using the buyer's mobile device. 7. The decoding system of claim 5, wherein the payment system is in communication with a buyer's financial transaction card institution or a buyer's financial account. 8. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the payment system includes identifying information of second parties qualified to conduct business with the payment system. 9. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the mobile device is a mobile digital device. 10. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the incoming signals are generated by a swiping of the buyer's financial transaction card through the card reader configured to be coupled and de-coupled with the mobile device. 11. The decoding system of claim 10, wherein the incoming signals are of low quality due to one or more of low quality of data read from a single and/or low density track of a magnetic stripe of a card, sampling speed limitations of the mobile device, and noise introduced into the mobile device. 12. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation detects presence of the read of the buyer's financial transaction card by looking for points in the incoming signals that exceed a minimum signal amplitude threshold. 13. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation detects presence of the read of the buyer's financial transaction card by capturing the signal of interest in the incoming signals via Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). 14. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation detects peaks in the incoming signals to be resistant to ringing in the incoming signals. 15. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation detects peaks in the incoming signals to be resistant to scratches in a card that cause slow quality or false peak information to manifest in the incoming signals. 16. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation detects peaks in the incoming signals by looking for local maxima and minima within a window of digital samples. 17. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation identifies a track from which data of the incoming signals are read through the read of the buyer's financial transaction card when only one track of data in a magnetic stripe of the buyer's financial transaction card is read. 18. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation digitizes the identified peaks in the incoming signals into bits only by checking and comparing polarities of peaks. 19. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation combines various peak detection and digitization approaches to cover various ranges of degradation in quality of input signals read. 20. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation chooses and optimizes different process combinations and parameters depending on hardware platform of the mobile device. 21. The decoding system of claim 1, wherein the decoding engine in operation scales and adjusts decoding to account for at least one of, different amounts of noise, sampling speed variations, signal ringing, and a swipe direction of the buyer's financial transaction card when the buyer's financial card is swiped through a slot of a card reader.
