  • Publication number: 20220060861
    Abstract: A system and method for a dynamic-link communication process between an electronic device and a target product or service by serving content or facilitating communication between two electronic devices. The first step is engagement by an electronic device with an initiator that is linked with a specific product or service that triggers a text message to auto-populate on the electronic device. The message comprising metadata about the specific product or service. The second step is for the electronic device to send the auto-populated message to a message gateway thus initiating the communication between the electronic device and a product or service. The message gateway works with a management service and one or more databases to send content back to the electronic device or to facilitate and convert messages between the electronic device and a second electronic device, the second electronic device associated with a product or service.

  • Publication number: 20210374716
    Abstract: A system and method for a dynamic-link verification process between an electronic device and a transaction or event. The first step is engagement by a mobile electronic device with an initiator that is linked with a specific verification event that triggers a text message to auto-populate on a mobile electronic device. The message comprising metadata about the user and the event or transaction. The second step is for the electronic device to send the auto-populated message to a message gateway thus initiating the verification of the user. The message gateway works with a management service and one or more databases to verify the identify and other aspects of the user based on instructions provided by the event host. Approval or denial of the transaction or request to gain entry is sent to the mobile device and the event host.

  • Publication number: 20210295362
    Abstract: A system and method for omnichannel voice and text-based advertising using voice recognition. The system comprises an application that allows a user who has viewed an advertisement on a non-interactive medium to speak one or more words dictated by the advertisement into the application in order to receive business incentives. A speech recognition engine recognizes the words spoken into the application and matches the words to the relevant advertisement and delivers a text-based incentive to the user. Furthermore, with the potential customer's phone number now available, an omnichannel text-based communicator may now send other advertisements, reminders (such as to use the incentive), and communications to the user of the application.

  • Publication number: 20210233097
    Abstract: A system and method for obtaining sales promotions via a text-messaging based interaction. The system comprises a call-to-action link that reduces the number of steps needed to obtain a sales promotion via a website. The call-to-action link triggers a prepopulated text message on a user's mobile device, whereby the user needs to only press send, and receive the sales promotion text message in return. The returned text message may provide the sales promotion in a variety of ways, such as a scannable bar code or QR code, a hypertext or URL link, an alphanumeric text, or other medium send-able via messaging services and usable by business establishments.

  • Publication number: 20210224866
    Abstract: A system and method for omnichannel text-based routing and customer-to-enterprise communications. The system comprises an interaction control system, an interaction routing system, and a media translation system. The system takes in requests from customers to text, email, or chat with a businessperson and facilitates the interaction by routing, masking, and converting where necessary. The routing is selected from a list of various algorithms and methods to determine the best businessperson to route the customer to. Masking by the system holds anonymity between the customer and businessperson, while conversion happens when the customer and businessperson are using two different communication vehicles such as from text messaging to email.

  • Publication number: 20210224865
    Abstract: A system and method for allowing seamless integration of an omni-channel communication platform into third-party ad campaigns. An omni-channel communication platform comprises an interaction control system, an interaction routing system, and a media translation system. Users perform function calls via an application programming interface (API) to a URL generator in order to receive a custom redirect URL that may be hosted on a user's advertisement. The redirect URL intercepts customer interactions with that advertisement and allows the customer and user to communication over the customer's and user's preferred method, converting the user's communication technology to the customer's communication technology and vice-versa. Furthermore, the user may request a generated user-interface graphic that is associated with the redirect URL via the same or a different function call.
