Abstract: Embodiments facilitate commercial transactions between a user and one or more vendors without requiring a user to provide information unique to a user account for the vendor. Embodiments prompt a user to select one or more vendors from a list of vendors. An authorization is obtained from the user to allow the computer program to retrieve the product from the list of vendors and on behalf of the user. The computer program then requests and receives, from each vendor, information for accessing an electronic resource of the vendor. In embodiments, the received information is unique to the user account for the vendor. The computer program then obtains the product from the vendor based on the received information. The computer program thus presents a centralized management service for obtaining product from a plurality of vendors and without requiring the user to provide user information unique to the user for each vendor.

Abstract: A computer program, method, and system for managing shipping transactions provide a graphical user interface that contemporaneously displays a list of shipment requests and one or more interface elements. The shipment requests each display information about a shipment request including a plurality of carriers and associated bid statuses. The interface elements include a create shipment requests interface element that receives a user input. Upon receiving the user input the graphical user interface displays a create shipment request screen that allows a shipper to create multiple shipment requests and send them to at least one carrier. The carrier receives a communication regarding the shipment request and the communication includes a prompt to respond. In response to the prompt a second graphical user interface is displayed to the carrier that allows further communication with the shipper regarding the shipment request.
