Publication number: 20260127688Abstract: Downloading a pre-configured application, or a part thereof, through an interactable element presented via a computing device is described. In an example, an interactable element associated with a point-of-sale application executing on a first merchant computing device of a merchant is generated and is caused to be presented via the point-of-sale application executing on the first merchant computing device. An indication of an interaction between a second merchant computing device and the interactable element is received from the second merchant computing device of the merchant, and, based at least in part on receiving the indication, at least part of the point-of-sale application is caused to be downloaded on the second merchant computing device with preconfigured device settings that mirror device settings of the point-of-sale application executing on the first merchant computing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 31, 2025Publication date: May 7, 2026Inventors: Philip Goolkasian, Brandon Labbe, Shaun Forouzandeh, Vitaly Odemchuk

Patent number: 12548094Abstract: Embedding applications, or parts thereof, into other applications, or parts thereof, is described. In an example, an engagement with a first application associated with a merchant can be detected, which can cause the first application to add a user to a waitlist associated with a merchant location of the merchant, and a notification can be sent to a user computing device of the user. Detecting an interaction with an interactable element of the notification can trigger a second application associated with the merchant to be initialized in response to the engagement. In at least one example, the first application can provisionally transition to the second application, or a part thereof. Based at least in part on detecting a user interaction with the second application, and a menu can be presented via a user interface associated with the second application via the user computing device.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2024Date of Patent: February 10, 2026Assignee: Block, Inc.Inventors: Philip Goolkasian, Brandon Labbe, Shaun Forouzandeh, Vitaly Odemchuk

Patent number: 11983697Abstract: Techniques described herein are directed to application(s), or parts thereof, that are embedded into a buyer application. In an example, engagement with a buyer application on a computing device of a buyer can be detected. A particular, discrete functionality of a merchant application of the merchant can be triggered to be initialized in response to the engagement and the particular, discrete functionality associated with the merchant application can be accessed. In an example, an indication of a transaction between the merchant and the buyer can be received and the indication of the transaction can be associated with stored activity data of one or more transactions of the buyer, wherein the one or more transactions are associated with the buyer application.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2020Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Block, Inc.Inventors: Philip Goolkasian, Brandon Labbe, Vitaly Odemchuk, Shaun Forouzandeh
