  • Publication number: 20220084091
    Abstract: Systems and computer-implemented methods are described disambiguating seller identities and assessing sellers based on continuous learning. For example, a system may identify and assess sellers across multiple channels such as electronic marketplaces by aggregating data at different time points from one or more sources of data that may each include respective and different seller details known about sellers to learn current information relating to sellers. Because of the different ways in which the sources of data may store and transmit their respective seller details, the system may aggregate the data from the different data sources, disambiguate sellers associated with the aggregated data, and generate a seller response message arranged based on a data structure that uses linkage identifiers that each groups aggregated data predicted to relate to a respective seller.

  • Publication number: 20190303803
    Abstract: A method for providing digital compensation can include receiving information from a merchant server including a change condition and/or instructions to communicate with a customer. The processor can determine a communication to deliver to the customer and receive one or more selections from the customer. Based on information received from the merchant server and information received from the customer, the processor can determine a type and amount of digital compensation to be provided to the customer, including any parameters to apply to the compensation. The processor can then provide digital compensation to the customer. Following the determination of digital compensation to be provided, information regarding events and experiences and other offers may be communicated to the customer. Following the provision of digital compensation, the system can also monitor the redemption status of the digital compensation.
