  • Publication number: 20230196445
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed that provide device-based coordination of multi-party delivery processes. One example implementation involves receiving a payer-invite request from a requester device. The payer-invite request requests an invitation be sent to a payer to pay for a delivery order. The delivery order specifying one or more items to be purchased and delivered to a requester location associated with the requester device or inputted by the requester. The system sends the invitation to a payer device associated with the payer and receives a payment from the payer device. The system fulfills the delivery order by identifying a fulfillment center, a driver, and/or a puller and sending communications with order information and instructions to the devices of those parties to coordinate the delivery. For example, the system sends a driving instruction to a driver device instructing the driver to pick up and deliver the items.

  • Publication number: 20220005106
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed that provide device-based coordination of third-party payment for delivery processes. One example implementation involves receiving a request from a first device. A payer associated with the second device is selected via a feature provided on the user interface on the first application on the first device. The system sends the invitation to the second device associated with the payer. The system receives order information from the second device and updates the order based on the order information, wherein updating the order includes updating the one or more items specified to be purchased based on the order information. The system receives confirmation of the updated order from the first or the third device. The system requests payment from the second device and sends a communication to purchase the one or more items from a location associated with the third device.
