  • MOBILE TRANSACTION DEVICE ENABLING DYNAMIC ELECTRONIC CHECKINS
    Publication number: 20200058014
    Abstract: A mobile transaction device may present nearby event or location related merchants to a user and allow the user to check in at the event or location. The mobile transaction device may then present merchants who are associated with the event or location to the user. Thus, the user may quickly find relevant merchants with whom the user wishes to conduct mobile transactions. For example, merchants associated with an event, such as merchants in a farmer's market, food trucks along the same street, or the like, may be grouped together into a merchant group associated with an event/location. A name/picture/icon of the event/location may be presented to the user on the mobile transaction app of the user device. Thus, the user may select the event/location to check in at the event or location. The merchants associated with the event or location may be quickly located for transactions.
