Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method of dynamically configuring a client installed on a communication device. The method includes, at a server operationally connected to the client through a network, obtaining environment identification data identifying an environment in which the client operates; generating, as a function of the environment identification data and administrative constraints, a configuration for the client, and pushing, to the client, the generated configuration, the configuration for configuring identification data the client to operate in the environment.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented systems and methods for searching vehicle listings. An example method may include receiving, from a user of a user device, by a service provider computer comprising one or more processors, a selection of a vehicle identifier associated with a vehicle. The method may also include receiving, from the user device, by the service provider computer, a communication directed to a dealer associated with the vehicle. The method may further include generating an anonymous identifier associated with the user and transmitting, to a dealer device associated with the dealer, the communication and the anonymous identifier. The method may also include transmitting, to the dealer device upon determination of the acceptance of a proposed transaction between the dealer and the user, personal identifying information associated with the user.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented systems and methods for searching vehicle listings. An example method may include scanning, by a user device comprising one or more processors, optical machine-readable data associated with a first vehicle. The method may also include determining, based at least in part on the optical machine-readable data, a vehicle identification number associated with the first vehicle. The method may further include determining, based at least in part on the vehicle identification number, one or more vehicle attributes.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented systems and methods for searching vehicle listings. An example method may include receiving one or more financial parameters. The method may also include generating one or more proposed transactions that may be defined, at least in part, by the one or more financial parameters. Additionally, the method may include determining, based at least in part on the one or more proposed transactions, for one or more advertised offers associated with one or more vehicles. The method may also include transmitting at least one advertised offer of the one or more advertised offers.

Abstract: A method for playing an extension game to an instant lottery game is disclosed. A player purchases an instant lottery game and wins a prize for the instant lottery game. The player is provided a chance to participate in the extension game of double-or-nothing. If the player chooses to participate in the extension game of double-or-nothing, the player tenders his winning ticket to a lottery retailer. The winning ticket is scanned by a lottery terminal and a result is generated for the extension game of double-or-nothing. If the winning ticket is also a winner of the extension game, the player doubles his winning. If the winning ticket is not a winner, the player forfeits his winning from the instant lottery game.

Abstract: A method for determining an optimal number of lottery retailers is disclosed. The optimal number of lottery retailers for a region can be determined based households of the same segmentations purchasing lottery products similarly, and there is a strong correlation between lottery agent density (population/retailers) and per capita lottery sales. The lottery agent density (LAD) necessary to produce high per capita sales can be identified and applied to all markets of that household segmentation.
