Abstract: The present invention is a computer-network implemented system for promoting one or more merchants of a marketing program to one or more members of the marketing program. The network includes a data storage device storing in each merchant profile a campaign budget value and a threshold trigger value, and a participant identifier and a numerical engagement value for each member profile that reflects the member's affinity with a respective one of the merchants. At least one processor is configured to monitor online user activity of the members, detect an occurrence of a transaction associated with a merchant, and receive or access data associated with the transaction. The processor retrieves the engagement value and triggers a determination of whether the numerical engagement value meets the threshold trigger value included within the advertising campaign parameters. The processor applies the calculation against the campaign budget value, and generates one or more incentives.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a computer-implemented method that may include generating, using one or more computing devices, a user account associated with a particular user and assigning an initial engagement value to the user account based upon, at least in part, the user's actions with one or more merchants. The method may also include identifying at least one trackable purchase event and an advertising campaign parameter and adjusting the engagement value of the user account, based upon, at least in part, the at least one trackable purchase event. The method may further include receiving an offer from an advertiser based upon, at least in part, the adjusted engagement value.

Abstract: Embodiments herein may include a computer-implemented method that may include generating, using one or more computing devices, a plurality of user accounts, each associated with a particular user and assigning an initial engagement value to each user account based upon, at least in part, each user's actions with one or more merchants. The method may further include identifying at least one trackable purchase event associated with each user account and adjusting the initial engagement value based upon an advertising parameter set by an advertiser. The method may also include allowing each of the plurality of user accounts to direct at least one portion of the revenue generated from the at least one trackable purchase event to at least one beneficiary of the user account, wherein the at least one beneficiary includes one or more entities selected by the particular user associated with each of the plurality of user accounts.

The method may further include identifying at least one trackable purchase event associated with the user account and providing at least one advertising campaign parameter to the user account, wherein a portion of the revenue generated from the at least one trackable purchase event is directed to a beneficiary of the user account.

Abstract: Embodiments herein may include a computer-implemented method that may include generating, using one or more computing devices, a plurality of user accounts, each associated with a particular user, the plurality of user accounts associated with a crowd-funding website. The method may further include allowing, via a graphical user interface associated with at least one of the plurality of user accounts, the particular user to determine what personal information to disclose to one or more merchants. The method may also include assigning an initial engagement value to each user account based upon, at least in part, each user's actions with one or more merchants and identifying at least one trackable purchase event associated with each user account. The method may also include adjusting the initial engagement value based upon a level of personal information disclosed to the one or more merchants and the at least one trackable purchase event.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a computer-implemented method that may include generating a user account associated with a particular user and assigning an engagement value to the user account based upon, at least in part, the user's actions with one or more merchants. The method may further include identifying at least one trackable purchase event and an advertising campaign parameter and analyzing the engagement value of the user account, the at least one trackable purchase event, and the advertising campaign parameter to determine a cost per action associated with the purchase event.
