  • Publication number: 20240005354
    Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable storage media are disclosed for receiving, at a server device having at least one processor, data associated with a user computing device, the data being associated with claiming a benefit and minting a non-fungible token (NFT) or dot associated with the benefit in connection with the data. The dot can be linked to a unique code such as a mobile phone number. The dot is recorded on a blockchain network and stored in a user wallet (that can be onboarded or created via use of the phone number as well) that is linked also to the mobile phone number. Redemption and use of the dot can be accessed by the user only needing to enter their known phone number to obtain the benefit in a number of different contexts.

  • Publication number: 20240005305
    Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable storage media are disclosed for receiving a single interaction with a selectable object and, based on the single interaction, performing steps including launching a browser on the user device and confirming that the user device has an identifying token in a user wallet. When the confirmation indicates that the user wallet has the identifying token, the method includes confirming that a phone number associated with the user device is found within a database. When the phone number confirmation indicates that the phone number of the user device is within the database, the method includes routing a token associated with the selectable object to the user wallet. The method also includes transitioning a user interface to a designated deep state with an application. The user can then in a single click or interaction be placed in a deep state in an application with a token-gated experience.
