  • Patent number: 10402841
    Abstract: A method for enabling a user to verify a price change for an on-demand service is provided. One or more processors can determine a real-time price for providing the on-demand service to the user. The one or more processors can determine when the real-time price is equal to or exceeds a threshold price. In response to a request from the user for the on-demand service when the real-time price is equal to or exceeds the threshold price, an intermediate interface can be provided that the user is to correctly respond to before a service request can be transmitted to a service system.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20140279011
    Abstract: A method for generating promotions for a service is provided. One or more processors provide, on a display of a computing device, a user interface to enable a promoter to create a promotion for a service. The user interface provides a plurality of parameters for the promotion. The promoter is enabled to configure at least one of the plurality of parameters for the promotion. A map interface is provided, on the display, to enable the promoter to identify a geographic region in which the promotion can be used by one or more customers. The promoter can identify the geographic region by creating a boundary using three or more location points selected on the map interface.
