Described herein is a centralized order computing system that is configured to receive orders from a plurality of sources. The plurality of sources can include delivery applications, remote customer computing devices, and/or service computing devices associated with a merchant The centralized order computing system may be configured to receive a plurality of orders from the plurality of sources, send the plurality of orders to a kitchen computing system associated with the merchant, receive a notification of order completion, and process the order.

An admission system comprising a mobile admission application in communication with a venue admission system. The mobile admission application runs on a mobile communication device under the control of an individual and operates to generate and send an admission request to the venue admission system having the identity of the member. The venue admission system operates to receive the admission request message and to verify the membership of the individual sending the request message. Provided the individual is verified to be a member of the venue, the venue admission system encrypts the member identity and sends the encrypted identity to the mobile admission application. Prior to being admitted to the venue, the mobile admission application generates and send an admission message with the encrypted member identity that is received by the venue admission system.

A shopping support system includes a management server, a reservation device such as a shooter, an automatic sorter, and a register.

The management server specifies a reserved product to be purchased in response to an operation input to the reservation device, controls the automatic sorter to pick up the reserved product to be purchased, transmits a price thereof to the register, and cause a moving object loaded with the settled product to move to a product receiving place by autonomous driving.

A system architecture of a gift transaction system is disclosed. The gift transaction system can include a buyer interface module, a recipient interface module, a merchant backend interface module, a store front interface module, a curation module, a reminder module, an analytics module, or a media plug-in interface module. A method of operating the gift transaction system under the system architecture includes: providing an embedded widget on a website to determine gift intent to initiate a gift transaction by a buyer account for a recipient account; generating a gift buyer interface for a first client device to personalize a gift package including a gift item; generating a gift recipient interface for a second client device to customize the gift package; and communicating with a merchant backend system to complete the gift transaction to ship the gift package.

A networked computer system distributes content that is to be added to receipts by receipt issuing devices. The system includes a central server, first and second store servers communicating with the central server over a first network, first receipt issuing devices communicating with the first store server over a first local network, and second receipt issuing devices communicating with the second store server over a second local network. A first control plane is implemented in the central server to control whether or not the content is to be distributed to the first store server and whether or not the content is to be distributed to the second store server. A second control plane is implemented in the first and second store servers to control whether or not the content is to be distributed to the first and second receipt issuing devices, respectively.

An order system according to an embodiment includes accepting sections, an order managing section, an operating section, a determining section, and a settlement managing section. Each accepting section accepts an order. The order managing section manages an order accepted by a first accepting section of the accepting sections in association with a first order terminal. The operating section causes an information terminal carried by a customer to acquire settlement data for settling, with a network settlement service, the order managed by the order managing section. The determining section determines completion of the settlement by the network settlement service based on the settlement data. The settlement managing section manages, based on a result of the determination in the determining section, whether settlement concerning each of the plurality of order terminals is completed.
