METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR IDENTIFYING QUALIFYING CONSUMER OFFERS

摘要

This disclosure concerns the identification of qualifying consumer offers. In one example, the identification is performed by a server. The server first receives an electronic graphical representation of purchase information and extracts from the graphical representation text data elements relating to the purchase. The server then matches the text data elements to criteria of one or more consumer offers to identify qualifying offers, such that predetermined criteria of the qualifying offer is successfully matched to the data elements. Finally, the server sends or displays to the consumer information relating to the qualifying consumer offers. Identifying offers that a purchase qualifies for is automatic, and more efficient and less costly to deliver. Commonly used receipts can be used as purchase information and there is no requirement for the receipt to contain any particular notation. This makes the method agnostic to the retailer.
