Publication number: 20240046276Abstract: Expedited transaction processing using a database of integrated in-store and online transactions is described. First transaction information associated with a first transaction conducted in a physical store of a merchant and second transaction information associated with a second transaction conducted via an online store of the merchant can be received. The first transaction can be processed based at least partly on the first transaction information and a record of the first transaction can be stored in the database. Based at least partly on the record, the second transaction can be processed using at least a portion of the second transaction information by (i) sending, to a card authorization service, the second payment information and (ii) generating an indication that the first payment information was authorized for the first transaction at the physical store. A computing device of the online store can be notified that the second transaction is allowed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Inventors: Ajit Kalidindi Varma, Joseph Loree Robinson, Andrew Lin, Jesse Reiss

Patent number: 11042883Abstract: Techniques for integrated online and offline sales management are described. A merchant application executing on a merchant device can present options for selling an item of a merchant. The options can include (i) a first option wherein an amount for the item is payable using a payment object at a payment object reader coupled to the merchant device and (ii) a second option wherein the amount for the item is payable using a customer application. An input associated with the second option can be received via the merchant application and, responsive to the input, a payment transaction link can be generated. The payment transaction link can be presented for sharing by the merchant with at least one customer, wherein the payment transaction link enables the at least one customer to pay the amount for the item using the customer application.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2020Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: Square, Inc.Inventors: Ajit Kalidindi Varma, Joseph Loree Robinson, Andrew Lin, Jesse Reiss

Patent number: 10891624Abstract: Method, systems, and apparatus for integrated online and offline sales management. A system manages both offline and online transactions and inventory in an integrated environment. An offline transaction is a sale at a point of sale (POS) system, e.g., at a typical “brick and mortar shop” physical store. An online transaction is a sale using an online store, e.g., an online shopping cart and checkout system accessed by a web browser or other application. An online store can be converted to offline store, and vice versa. An inventory management system can receive an input from a merchant device of merchant designating an item carried by the merchant as an item to be sold at the physical store, at the online store, or both. The inventory management system can modify a record of the item to respond to the input.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2019Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignee: Square, Inc.Inventors: Ajit Kalidindi Varma, Jesse Reiss, Andrew Lin, Joseph Loree Robinson

Patent number: 10229414Abstract: Method, systems, and apparatus for mirroring a storefront to a social media site. A social media interface system mirrors an online or offline storefront of a merchant to an account of the merchant on a social media site. The system receives a copy of an electronic message from a user device of the merchant. The system parses the copy of the message and determines that the message is related to the item and related to an online store or physical store of the merchant. The system then inserts a tag into the copy of the message, the tag linking the message to an online storefront of the online store or an offline storefront of the physical store. The system posts the copy of the message, including the tag, in the account of the merchant on a social media site.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2014Date of Patent: March 12, 2019Assignee: Square, Inc.Inventors: Ajit Kalidindi Varma, Joseph Loree Robinson, Jesse Reiss, Andrew Lin

Publication number: 20140379580Abstract: Method, systems, and apparatus for integrated online and offline purchase authorization. A card risk management system uses data of past transactions to expedite subsequent transactions. The data of past transactions can include records of past authorization, at a physical store, a purchase transaction by a buyer using a purchase card. The system records information on the purchase card and a user name, as provided by the user at the physical store, for authorizing the purchase transaction. A subsequent transaction can be an online transaction, by an online user having an online user account. The system can match the user name and the online user account in a unified authorization data store. If the match is successful, and upon determining that a purchase card used in the online transaction is the same as used in the physical store, the card risk management system can expedite authorization of the online purchase.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2014Publication date: December 25, 2014Inventors: Ajit Kalidindi Varma, Joseph Loree Robinson, Jesse Reiss, Andrew Lin
