  • Publication number: 20110173097
    Abstract: Methods and hardware systems are described to enable an online customer to easily track or find the status of his purchases or inquires from various merchandisers without having to individually recall each merchandiser-sent emails. A software tool, operating under a hardware environment, is utilized by the customer to provide “one-stop” status and tracking facilitation. From the customer's perspective, this will make it significantly easier to keep track of various on-line purchases, etc. From the merchandiser's perspective, this will provide a direct link to the customer's desktop or interface, which bypasses the need for the merchandiser to pay for third party search engine clicks, and so forth.
