Abstract: A method that includes receiving a string from a remote station, the string associated with an interaction event between a user and the remote station, is provided. The method includes verifying that the string includes a content validation for a user account in a network service, mapping at least a portion of the string to a ticker symbol associated with an entry in a database and transmitting, to the user, a message indicating that a fractional value associated with the ticker symbol has been added to the user account in the network service. A system configured to execute the above method is also provided.

Abstract: A customer may specify, via a mobile device, a current location at which the customer desires to receive a delivery order for food items, as well as a preferred amount of time for the delivery. In response, food items that are available to be delivered to the current location within the preferred amount of time are identified and presented to the customer, including food items to be prepared/provided by merchants and food items current being transported by deliverers within sophisticated food item containers and/or delivery containers. Upon receiving a selection of one or more food items, a delivery of the ordered/selected food items may be facilitated. For instance, one or more instructions to prepare and/or transport the food item(s) may be transmitted to devices of merchants and/or deliverers.

Abstract: A food item container that contains a food item may include one or more sensors that collect sensor data indicating a characteristic (e.g., temperature, humidity, pressure, orientation, etc.) associated with the food item. A delivery container that transports the food items within the food item container may also include one or more sensors that collect the sensor data. Based on the sensor data, a component of the food item container and/or the delivery container may maintain or adjust the characteristic. The one or more sensors of the delivery container may also detect an identifier associated with the food item container, which may indicate which food item containers (and corresponding food items) are included within each delivery container.
