Publication number: 20220207565Abstract: Methods for in-vehicle contextual promotions are described herein. In a first method a driver receives an in-vehicle promotion (for either food or fuel) based on a time of day, their location, route, favorite items, favorite vendors, and nearby vendors. The driver taps the promotion and receives a list of favorite items. The driver makes a selection of the favorite items, makes a payment for the selected product using an e-wallet, and picks up the selected product. In a second method, the driver may receive an in-vehicle promotion, including a “remind me later” link. When the user taps on the link, they may then access the promotion at a later time on their mobile phone app outside of the vehicle. The user taps on the saved link and is redirected to a vendor's website. The user may make a purchase for a product at the vendor's website at this later time.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2021Publication date: June 30, 2022Inventors: William Mitchell Dornich, John Jasper, Paul Doucette, Victoria Repice, Marti Gold

Patent number: 9729729Abstract: A system and method for providing digital data content to a wireless device. Although a fee is typically charged for access to the digital data content, e.g., electronic books, the system and the method provides controlled access to this content for free while the wireless device is accessing the content in a specified location, e.g., a retail location. A content control server receives a request from the wireless device requesting access to the digital data content. The request is received over a secure connection, preferably a virtual private network (VPN). The content control server monitors how much of the digital data content has been provided to the wireless device, and/or an amount of time the wireless device has been accessing the digital data content. This content control server uses this monitored data to control, throttle, the provision of the digital data content to the wireless device.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2016Date of Patent: August 8, 2017Assignee: NOOK DIGITAL, LLCInventors: Ted Cohn, Michael Reilly, Victoria Repice, Theresa Horner, Terri Pucin, Stanislav Tsvetanov, James Kung, David Mandelbaum
