    摘要: An electronic payment system that allows a payer to obtain an economic benefit in a payment transaction for a specific good or service. The system can provide either a direct financial discount in the currency or value units of the transaction, such as with a coupon discount for a specific good or service purchased, or the system can have a secondary benefit conferred on the transaction that can later accrue to a payer in a different transaction, such as a voucher or credit or other value unit. The use of the electronic payment system is of such advantage to the payer that specific actions can be requested of the payer prior to use of the system, such as gathering market data or answering a survey. The system can also provide a demand market for coupons, discounts, and utility units of value to a user by providing interested entities with item data that the user is contemplating purchasing.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for distributing a resource (such as electricity) using a resource allocation system. In one exemplary embodiment, a system is disclosed comprising a first feeder network configured to deliver electrical power to a first plurality of customers. The first feeder network is controlled by a first market-based pricing system that computes a first feeder network price of electrical power at first periodic intervals. The system of this embodiment further comprises a second feeder network configured to deliver electrical power to a second plurality of customers. The second feeder network is controlled by a second market-based pricing system that computes a second feeder network price of electrical power at second periodic intervals. In this exemplary embodiment, the first feeder network and the second feeder network are part of a same distribution network, and the first feeder network price of electrical power is different than the second feeder network price of electrical power.

    摘要: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for enabling collaboration between transaction participants. One example method includes: receiving, at a collaboration system remote from a first participant and a second participant, a request for a transaction, the request sent by the first participant and associated with the second participant and including a set of request parameters; identifying, at the collaboration system, a set of conditions associated with the request, wherein each identified condition includes information that matches the second participant and at least one request parameter and pre-defined information to apply to the request; applying, at the collaboration system, each of the identified conditions in response to the received request; and generating, at the collaboration system, a responsive communication in response to applying the identified conditions, wherein the responsive communication provides a response to the request sent by the first participant on behalf of the second participant.

    摘要: A system is provided that allows a customer to receive a guaranteed sales item when a sales item is not available on-hand at a retail store location. In one implementation, a limited in-store sale of an item may be provided such that if the customer meets certain criteria associated with the sale, that the customer is guaranteed the item, even if the item is not located at the retail location. In another implementation, each customer that is located at the retail store within a certain prescribed time of the sale may be guaranteed that the item is received by certain time.
