Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for providing augmented reality shopping displays. A processor can execute a shopping service. The processor can receive a request for display data. The processor can analyze shopping data to identify data sources, the shopping data can include user data associated with the requestor, and the data sources can include an offer source. The processor can obtain collected data from the data sources identified, the collected data including an offer. The processor can generate display data based upon the collected data and the shopping data, and provide the display data to a user device. The display data can identify the offer.

In one embodiment, a method includes, at a central data center including at least one server computer, maintaining central hospitality data for a plurality of hospitality systems. The method further includes serving, by the central data center, at least a portion of the central hospitality data to a plurality of computing devices operated by hospitality consumers. The method also includes, at the central data center, receiving, at regular intervals, an automated email from each hospitality system of the plurality of hospitality systems. Each automated email encapsulates updated local hospitality data gathered by the hospitality system. In addition, the method includes, at the central data center, retrieving the updated local hospitality data from each automated email. Also, the method includes, at the central data center, updating the central hospitality data per the updated local hospitality data.

A television service provider system includes interactive elements embedded within advertisements or other content related to a particular product or service that a user may select to receive an initially non-redeemable coupon for the product. The system then electronically communicates to the seller or advertiser system the indications of such electronic interactivity between the viewers of content and content related to the product being sold or advertised. The advertiser or seller may then electronically activate and thus convert the non-redeemable coupon into a redeemable coupon. A system for processing retail transactions redeems the coupons for the product for a particular user using an identifier of the user associated with the account of the user with the television service provider.

Disclosed are methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for mobile browser code testing. For instance, the method may include monitoring, using a mobile application, a user interaction with the mobile application to detect a mobile browser being launched; responsive to detecting the mobile browser being launched, launching, using the mobile application, a browser user interface within the mobile application and monitoring a mobile browser session to detect a user accessing a website from a plurality of websites; responsive to detecting the user accessing the website, injecting, using the mobile application, a script into a current web page of the website in the mobile browser; testing, using the mobile browser, codes using the script in the current web page; and updating, using the mobile application, the browser user interface with a result of testing.

Disclosed herein is a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing computer-readable instructions for a terminal device. The computer-readable instructions, when executed by a processor of the terminal device, may cause the terminal device to: in a case where a notification object corresponding to notification information received from a server is displayed on a display unit of the terminal device and the notification object is operated by a user, display a predetermined screen on the display unit; in a case where the notification object is operated by the user, obtain related information which is related to a first registered device among any of one or more registered devices registered in a memory of the terminal device, wherein the related information is received from the server; and in a case where a predetermined object included in the predetermined screen is operated by the user, execute a predetermined process using the related information.

An ad is placed in a movie, by analyzing inherent characteristics of the movie, analyzing viewed characteristics of the movie, analyzing viewer characteristics of a viewer of the movie, obtaining advertiser preferences for placement of the ad in the movie, determining costs of placing the ad in the movie based on the inherent characteristics of the movie, the viewed characteristics of the movie, the viewer characteristics and the advertiser preferences, and placing the ad in the movie in accordance with the inherent characteristics of the movie, the viewed characteristics of the movie, the viewer characteristics, the advertiser preferences and the determined costs.

Systems and methods of evaluating information in a computer network environment are provided. A data processing system can obtain or receive a content placement criterion, such as a keyword, associated with a content item and can determine a quality metric of the content placement criterion. The data processing system can identify a candidate content placement criterion and expand placement criteria associated with the content item to include the content placement criterion and the candidate content placement criterion based at least in part on an evaluation of the quality metric of the content placement criterion. The data processing system can expand placement criteria based in part on a throttling parameter. The data processing system can identify a correlation between a document and the placement criteria to identify appropriate content items for the document.

Systems and methods for pairing a payment object reader with a computing device are described. An example method includes detecting, by a computing device and while in a pairing mode, a plurality of payment object readers. Each of the plurality of payment object readers is configurable to be paired wirelessly with the computing device. Each of the plurality of payment object readers outputs a signal strength representative of a location of the payment object reader relative to the computing device. The computing device tracks respective signal strengths of the plurality of payment object readers over time. Based on a determination that a change in a signal strength of a particular payment object reader of the plurality of payment object readers represents movement of the particular payment object reader relative to the computing device, a wireless communication channel is established between the particular payment object reader and the computing device.

Systems and methods are provided for providing alerts to a user. The systems and methods may include a financial service provider including a memory device storing instructions. The financial service provider may also include at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to perform a plurality of operations. The operations may include receiving data relating to an activity of a user. The operations may also include identifying a merchant based at least on the received data. The operations may also include accessing historical fraud or disputes data associated with at least one of the user and the merchant. The operations may also include determining whether the received data triggers an alert. The operations may further include sending an alert message to a user device associated with the user when the processor determines that the received data triggers the alert.
