54 results about "App store" patented technology

An app store (or app marketplace) is a type of digital distribution platform for computer software called Applications, often in a mobile context. Apps provide a specific set of functions which, by definition, do not include the running of the computer itself. Complex software designed for use on a personal computer, for example, may have a related app designed for use on a mobile device. Today apps are normally designed to run on a specific operating system—such as the contemporary iOS, macOS, Windows or Android—but in the past mobile carriers had their own portals for apps and related media content.

Ecommerce messaging systems and methods for implementing in-app stores and order workflows

An ecommerce messaging system described herein comprises one or more ecommerce extension apps that interact with a messaging app. These embodiments leverage the extension core to manage session apps and smart services for using tap-to-message and tap-to-update processes to generate, update, and manage order workflows and in-app stores through branded messages communicated between customer and seller session apps to share message transcripts on devices of the same user groups via the messaging host, empower ecommerce with action-key-based communication, serialize-deserialize processes, and dynamic update propagation, manage return-refund workflows with temporary tables until one-time entity data model updates can be performed for session apps, and configure multi-store shopping systems on sellers' multiple devices using a store-as-a-service model to enable distributors to distribute production copies of assigned stores to authorized publishers to add custom promotions, which will be published together as production copies to their subscribed user groups for multi-store shopping and tracking.

Method and System for Verifying Restricted Purchases

A system and method are provided for electronically verifying age-restricted purchases using biometric data and digital communication. The method comprises: receiving an application from a website via an electronic device; creating a customer account linked to the customer; and gathering biometric information—such as facial structures and thumbprints—using the customer's communication device. An approved customer receives a token. During a purchase, the customer scans an age-restricted product, and the store device prompts for self-age verification. The customer's biometric data is used to access the web application in purchase mode. The store device provides a transaction token barcode / QR code, scanned by the customer, which combines with the customer token to form a request token. This request token is sent to a centralized server for processing. Upon approval, an approval token is received by the store device, authorizing the age-restricted purchase.
