Abstract:
Techniques and systems for beacon triggered device to device content transfer are disclosed. A described technique includes presenting, at an interactive beacon device, content including an interactive store catalog; receiving, at the interactive beacon device, user input responsive to the content; generating, at the interactive beacon device, a beacon message that can include transaction information based on the user input and the content, the transaction information including a service or product identifier corresponding to a product or service selected from the interactive store catalog; and transmitting, from the interactive beacon device, the beacon message over a short-range communication link to a mobile device. The beacon message can be configured to cause an application on the mobile device to advance a transaction associated with the transaction information.
Abstract:
Techniques and systems for beacon triggered processes are disclosed. A described technique includes causing a beacon device to broadcast a beacon message, the beacon device being within the vicinity of an establishment; detecting a presence of a user of a mobile device based on receiving from the mobile device a first message that is responsive to the beacon message; retrieving a transaction record based on a user or mobile device identifier in the first message; generating and transmitting a second message based on the transaction record to facilitate a completion of a transaction associated with the transaction record at the establishment; the second message being configured to provide notification of an arrival of the user and dispatch an employee to meet the user and handle the transaction; and generating and transmitting a third message based on the transaction record to facilitate the completion of the transaction at the mobile device.
Abstract:
Techniques and systems for beacon based campaign creation and management are disclosed. A disclosed technique includes providing a graphical user interface to create a campaign zone for a location, create campaign messages for the campaign zone, prioritize the campaign messages, and produce campaign message priority information; generating campaign information based on the campaign messages and the campaign message priority information; and providing the campaign information to mobile devices. The graphical user interface can be configured to specify for a campaign message a beacon identifier associated with a beacon device that is within a vicinity of the location, and to specify for the campaign message an action for a mobile device to perform in response to receiving a beacon message containing the beacon identifier from the beacon device.
Abstract:
Techniques and systems for prioritizing beacon messages are disclosed. Such a technique can include receiving, at a mobile device, beacon messages from multiple beacon devices over short-range communication links, the beacon devices being within a vicinity of an establishment, the beacon messages being configured to provide content associated with the establishment; determining, at the mobile device, priorities of the beacon messages based on one or more criteria; selecting, at the mobile device, a beacon message of the beacon messages based on the priorities to produce a selected beacon message; and presenting the selected beacon message through the mobile device.

Abstract:
The present technology provides a technological infrastructure that overcomes common problems associated with cash back rewards cards. The present invention integrates a credit card account with cash account through an electronic wallet application such that cash can be transferred directly into a user's cash account after each transaction which cash back is earned. In some embodiments, the user's cash account and a cash account associated with a business associated with a credit card can be provided by the same financial institution. The above infrastructure further allows for more efficient payment of a credit card balance, wherein when cash is transferred from the user's cash account to the business' cash account in association with a credit card balance, an immediate release of open to buy funds is affected.

Abstract:
Techniques and systems for scoring beacon messages and selectively performing mobile device wake-up on a score are disclosed. Such a technique can include receiving, at a mobile device in a first operational state, a beacon message from a beacon device over a short-range communication link; determining a score based on the beacon message and one or more criteria for causing a transition from the first operational state to a second operational state, the second operational state consumes more energy from a battery of the mobile device than the first operational state; determining whether the score exceeds a threshold for causing the transition; if the score does not exceed the threshold, maintaining the mobile device in the first operational state; and if the score exceeds the threshold, transitioning the mobile device to the second operational state and presenting the beacon message through the mobile device in the second operational state.
