Method, apparatus, and system for operating an electronic account in connection with an electronic transaction

Abstract

Embodiments of the present application relate to a method, apparatus, and system for operating an electronic account or displaying a payment page. The method includes receiving, from a first client terminal, a payment platform display page acquisition request, providing, to the first client terminal, a payment platform display page, wherein the payment platform display page includes a first script code, wherein in the event that the first script code is executed, the first script code causes the first client terminal to obtain a payment page including a digital object unique identifier from a payment server and to display the payment page, wherein the digital object unique identifier indicates an upcoming payment sum, receiving verification information, and sending the verification information to the payment server to instruct the payment server to execute a deduction operation on an electronic account.
