SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTHENTICATING ONLINE CUSTOMER SERVICE REVIEWS

摘要

Systems and methods are provided for authenticating online customer service reviews using unique customer identifiers such as payment data and location data. A customer authentication process is performed before or after a customer who obtains a service from a particular employee of a service provider is asked to complete a review of the employee to verify that the customer completing the review is the customer that received the service from the employee. A payment-based authentication process will check the payment information to determine if the customer's payment information matches their customer review profile, while a location-based authentication process will determine whether the user's mobile device is in the location where the service was performed. Once the authentication process verifies that the customer creating the review, the resulting online customer service review can be identified as an authentic customer review of the service provider, employee and the service.
