Abstract

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related to facilitating item searching and linking transactions functionality in mobile commerce. In some embodiments, a user device may receive an identification of an item from a user. The user device may receive one or more search parameters. The user device may facilitate a search for the item based at least in part on the identification of the item and the one or more search parameters. The user device may insert the item into a lifecycle shopping list. The user device may store the lifecycle shopping list.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving, by a user device comprising one or more processors, an identification of an item from a user;

receiving, by the user device, one or more search parameters;

facilitating, by the user device, a search for the item based at least in part on the identification of the item and the one or more search parameters; and

inserting, by the user device, the item into a lifecycle shopping list.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the one or more search parameters comprise one or more of:

a merchant type, a merchant location, a brand preference, a merchant preference, price thresholds, an estimated delivery time, an availability of the item, or an item rating associated with the item.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

exporting, by the user device, the lifecycle shopping list.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

annotating, by the user device, the item in the lifecycle shopping list.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

storing, by the user device, the lifecycle shopping list to a remote server.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein inserting the item into the lifecycle shopping lists further comprises:

scanning, by the user device, a code associated with the item.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

publishing, by the user device, the lifecycle shopping list to a social network; and

receiving, by the user device, comments from one or more users from the social network.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving, by the user device, a request to associate an artifact with a transaction in the lifecycle shopping list;

receiving, by the user device, the artifact;

associating, by the user device, the artifact with the transaction; and

storing, by the user device, the artifact in association with the transaction.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 8, wherein the artifact is one of a movie ticket, a warranty, boarding pass, a receipt, travel documents, product information, serial number, model number, or user guide.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 8, wherein receiving the artifact further comprises:

capturing, by the user device, an image of the artifact.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 8, wherein receiving the artifact further comprises:

receiving the artifact from a merchant.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 8, wherein the artifact and transaction are stored in a remote server.

13. A system comprising:

at least one memory storing computer-executable instructions; and

at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to access the at least one memory and to execute the computer-executable instructions to;

receive an identification of an item from a user;

receive one or more search parameters;

facilitate a search for the item based at least in part on the identification of the item and the one or more search parameters; and

insert the item into a lifecycle shopping list.

15. The system of claim 15, wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

export the lifecycle shopping list.

14. The system of claim 15, wherein the one or more search parameters comprise one or more of:

a merchant type, a merchant location, a brand preference, a merchant preference, price thresholds, an estimated delivery time, an availability of the item, or an item rating associated with the item.

16. The system of claim 15, wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

annotate the item in the lifecycle shopping list.

17. The system of claim 15, wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

store the lifecycle shopping list to a remote server.

18. The system of claim 15, wherein to insert the item into the lifecycle shopping lists, the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

scan a code associated with the item.

19. The system of claim 15, wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

publish the lifecycle shopping list to a social network; and

receive comments from one or more users from the social network.

20. The system of claim 15, wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

receive a request to associate an artifact with a transaction in the lifecycle shopping list;

receive the artifact;

associate the artifact with the transaction; and

store the artifact in association with the transaction.

21. The system of claim 21, wherein the artifact is one of a movie ticket, a warranty, boarding pass, a receipt, travel documents, product information, serial number, model number, or user guide.

22. The system of claim 21, wherein to receive the artifact, the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

capture an image of the artifact.

23. The system of claim 21, wherein to receive the artifact, the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

receive the artifact from a merchant.

24. The system of claim 21, wherein the artifact and transaction are stored in a remote server.
