Method and system for facilitating consumer interactions for performing purchase commands
First Claim
1. A computer-executed method for facilitating a transaction, the method comprising:
- transmitting computer-executable instructions to cause a representation of an item to be displayed on a consumer interface rendered on a touch-screen visual display of a computing device, wherein the consumer interface presents an icon associated with the representation of the item;
receiving, at the touch-screen visual display of the computing device, an indication of a compound consumer input;
associating the compound consumer input with the item by detecting that at least a portion of the compound consumer input occurs at a position on the touch-screen visual display corresponding to a position of the icon;
determining that the compound consumer input corresponds to a purchase command; and
based on the determination that the compound consumer input corresponds to the purchase command, facilitating purchase of the item,wherein a first portion of the consumer input is associated with the purchase command, and wherein a second portion of the consumer input is associated with a second command, andwherein the second command comprises a quantity command defining a number of instances of the item selected for purchase, and wherein the method further comprises;
in response to receiving an indication of the second command, transmitting computer-executable instructions to cause facilitating purchase of one or more instances of the item based on the quantity command.

Abstract
Embodiments provide a computer-executed method, a computer system and computer-program product for facilitating a transaction. The method includes transmitting computer-executable instructions to cause a representation of an item to be displayed on a consumer interface rendered on a visual display of a computing device. The method also includes receiving, from the computing device, an indication of a compound consumer input associated with a consumer and performed using the consumer interface. The method further includes, based on a determination that the compound consumer input corresponds to a purchase command, retrieving information previously stored for the consumer, generating an order to purchase the item for the consumer, and transmitting an order confirmation configured to be displayed by the computing device.

38. A computer system is provided comprising at least a processor, and a memory associated with the processor having computer coded instructions therein, with the computer instructions configured to, when executed by the processor, cause the computer system to:
-
transmit computer-executable instructions to cause a representation of an item to be displayed on a consumer interface rendered on a touch screen visual display of a computing device, wherein the consumer interface presents an icon associated with the representation of the item; receive, at the touch-screen visual display of the computing device, an indication of a compound consumer input; associate the compound consumer input with the item by detecting that at least a portion of the compound consumer input occurs at a position on the touch-screen visual display corresponding to a position of the icon; determine that the compound consumer input corresponds to a purchase command; and based on the determination that the compound consumer input corresponds to the purchase command, facilitate purchase of the item, wherein a first portion of the consumer input is associated with the purchase command, and wherein a second portion of the consumer input is associated with a second command, and wherein the second command comprises a quantity command defining a number of instances of the item selected for purchase, and wherein the system is further configured to; in response to receiving an indication of the second command, transmit computer-executable instructions to cause facilitating purchase of one or more instances of the item based on the quantity command. - View Dependent Claims (39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66)
