Publication number: 20220038570Abstract: Integrating buyer and/or merchant functionality with discoverable applications is described. In an example, applications associated with a service provider can be stored in a repository associated with the service provider. At least a part of an application of the applications is associated with a particular, discrete functionality. The service provider can determine context data associated with a user computing device and can select, based at least in part on the context data, the application from the applications, wherein at least the part of the application is to be surfaced on the user computing device. The service provider can cause a user interface associated with at least the part of the application to be presented via the user computing device, wherein the user interface enables a user of the user computing device to input data for enabling the particular, discrete functionality, and wherein a portion of the context data is used to customize the user interface for the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 7, 2020Publication date: February 3, 2022Inventors: Brian Stegall, Matthew T.

Patent number: 11064047Abstract: Techniques described are directed to accessibility of instant application data via an associated application. In an example, a service provider can cause a first user interface associated with an instant application associated with a particular, discrete functionality of an application to be presented via a first user computing device of a user. The service provider can receive data via an interaction with the first user interface associated with the instant application. The service provider can receive a request to download the application from a second user computing device of the user, cause the application to be downloaded on the second user computing device of the user, and cause the data received via the interaction with the first user interface associated with the instant application to be associated with the application on the second user computing device.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2020Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: Square, Inc.Inventors: Brian Stegall, Kenneth Randall Kinsella Wigginton, Arjun Mahanti, Marc David Perry, Matthew T.

Patent number: 10867291Abstract: Systems and processes for remote provisioning of manager approval are described. A point-of-sale application on a worker mobile device can send a request for manager approval to perform a transaction-related action for which a worker lacks sufficient permissions. A manager application on a remote manager device can display a notification of the request and can also present additional information regarding the request (and historical requests), including a queue of pending requests that can be generated and updated according to priority rules and transaction conditions. The manager application receives an indication of the manager's approval to the worker mobile device. In response, the worker mobile device can automatically perform the action. In some configurations, an intermediate device (e.g., a local or remote server device) can execute the manager application and can add data and capabilities to the system and processes.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2018Date of Patent: December 15, 2020Assignee: Square, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Yien, Amar Dhingra, David Arvelo, Matthew T.

Patent number: 10572871Abstract: Techniques and arrangements for personalizing gift cards based, in part, on exchanging personalized messages between a customer that buys a gift card and a customer that receives and uses the gift card. A point-of-sale (POS) device of a merchant may receive a personalized message from the customer buying the gift card at the time of the purchase. The POS device may then present the personalized message to the customer receiving the gift card when the customer uses the gift card to satisfy a cost of a transaction between the merchant and the customer. During or after the transaction, the POS device may further receive feedback from the recipient customer of the gift card. The POS device may then send the feedback to the customer that originally bought the gift card.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2014Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: Square, Inc.Inventors: John LaBanca, Jr., Matthew T.
