  • Publication number: 20140172546
    Abstract: An offer identifier is generated when an end user purchases an online offer via an application module on the end user's remote client device. An offer receipt comprising the offer identifier is communicated to the purchaser, and the offer identifier is stored on the purchaser's remote client device. The offer identifier is communicated to a merchant payment system when redeeming the offer offline at the merchant's store and then communicated to the offer redemption recording system. The offer redemption recording system lists the offer identifier received from the merchant payment system as redeemed. The offer redemption recording system uses the listed offer identifiers to identify previous purchasers of online offers by searching for the matching offer identifiers on the purchaser's remote client device when the purchaser uses the application module on the remote client device to access web sites associated with an ad server.
