Abstract: A system for processing a digital promotion may include a cloud server. The cloud server may be configured to operate a messenger bot associated with a digital advertisement for a given product on a mobile wireless communications device associated with a given user, collect information from the messenger bot, and determine whether a potential redemption location is within a given area associated with the mobile wireless communications device. When the potential redemption location is within the given area, the cloud server may communicate a first digital promotion for the given product through the messenger bot to the mobile wireless communications device based upon the collected information. When the potential redemption location is outside the given area, the cloud server may communicate a second digital promotion through the messenger bot to the mobile wireless communications device based upon the collected information.

Abstract: A system for processing a digital promotion may include mobile wireless communications devices and a digital promotion server. The digital promotion server may be configured to operate a messenger bot to collect information and communicate a first digital promotion for a first product to at least one mobile wireless communications device based upon the collected information. The digital promotion server may also be configured to determine an underperforming redemption location for the first digital promotion for the first product having underperforming sales of the first product relative to other redemption locations and obtain an identification of a second product also included with the first product from transaction receipts. The digital promotion server may also be configured to generate a second digital promotion associated with the second product for redemption at the underperforming redemption location and communicate the second digital promotion to the mobile wireless communications devices.

Abstract: A system for processing a digital promotion may include a mobile wireless communications device associated with a user and configured to operate a ride-sharing application and a digital promotion server. The digital promotion server may be configured to determine a geographic destination of the user based upon the ride-sharing application and generate a digital promotion for redemption at a redemption location associated with the geographic destination and communicate the digital promotion to the mobile wireless communications device. The digital promotions server may also be configured to cooperate with the mobile wireless communications device to prompt the user to accept the digital promotion, and upon acceptance, generate a user identifier associated with the user and the digital promotion and communicate the user identifier to the redemption location for redemption of the digital promotion.

Abstract: A system for processing a digital promotion may include a mobile wireless communications device and a digital promotion server. The digital promotion server may be configured to operate a messenger bot to communicate a digital promotion for a given product to the mobile wireless communications device. The digital promotion may be redeemable at a redemption location. The digital promotion server may be configured to obtain an image of a guest check associated with a purchase transaction at the redemption location, and determine whether the given product is indicated on the image of the guest check, and when so, cooperate with the redemption location to redeem the digital promotion for the given product during the purchase transaction.

Abstract: A social gifting system is described herein that provides digital, personalized gifts that are both temporally and spatially relevant to a gift recipient. The giver can use a mobile application to select a friend, select a gift, and send the gift electronically to the recipient. The recipient can use a mobile computing device to receive the gift, provide a code or other redemption information to a vendor, and then receive the gift. The system provides new ways to make these types of digital gifts easier to redeem through point of sale integration with various common vendor systems. The social gifting system provides a proprietary process flow between the user and merchant staff that is set up for increased ease of use, speed, and simplicity. The social gifting system allows users to send highly personalized gifts in any form, and to bring the price point down.
