Abstract: This disclosure relates to system, method, and computer program for providing a wish-list user interface within a web browser, for tracking “fully-stacked prices” for items in the wish list, and for alerting users to a drop in a fully-stacked price of an item in the wish list. A browser extension provides a wish list user interface within a user's web browser. Via the user interface, a user is able to add products from different merchant websites to the wish list. As each item is added to the wish list, an initial multifactor-based price (i.e., the fully-stacked price) is calculated for the item. While an item remains in the wish list, a backend server continues to track the multifactor-based price for the item. In response to detecting a drop in a multifactor-based price for an item in the wish list, the browser extension alerts the user to the price drop.
Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and computer program for providing users with notifications of a cashback rewards from a shopping portal using screen and email analysis. A shopping portal system analyzes the content and characteristics of user emails, as well as screens viewed by the user through a client application (e.g., webpages and mobile application screens), to identify probable order-confirmation emails and screens. In response to identifying an order-confirmation email or an order-confirmation screen, the system determines whether a cashback reward should be credited to the user for the order corresponding to the order-confirmation email/screen. In response to an order-confirmation email or screen satisfying the criteria for a cashback reward, the system credits a user account with the cashback reward and notifies the user of the reward.
