Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments involving access to guest orders in an electronic commerce application. In one embodiment, a request to access a guest account is obtained from a client. The request specifies a destination network address and an order identifier. A message is sent to the destination network address in response to verifying that the destination network address and the order identifier are associated with the guest account. The message includes a link that facilitates access to an order management function for the guest account.

21. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing specific instructions that, when executed, cause at least one computing device to at least:
-
generate a guest order for a purchase of an item based at least in part on interaction with another computing device; send a message to a destination network address in response to receiving the destination network address and an identifier of the guest order from the other computing device; authenticate the other computing device based at least in part on a manipulation of a link in the message via the other computing device; and provide the authenticated other computing device with access to order data associated with the guest order to facilitate at least one customer action with respect to the guest order. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26)

27. A system comprising:
-
a data store configured to store guest order data; and at least one computing device in communication with the data store, the at least one computing device configured to at least; obtain a request to access a guest account from another computing device, the request specifying a destination network address and an order identifier; and send a message to the destination network address in response to verifying that the destination network address and the order identifier are associated with the guest account, the message including a link that facilitates access to at least one order management function for the guest account. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35)

36. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
receiving, via at least one computing device, a guest order access request from another computing device, the guest order access request specifying an order identifier and a destination network address; verifying, via the at least one computing device, that the order identifier and the destination network address are associated with a guest order; in response to verifying that the order identifier and the destination network address are associated with the guest order, sending, via the at least one computing device, a message to the destination network address, the message specifying a link configured to request a confirmation user interface; sending, via the at least one computing device, data encoding the confirmation user interface to the other computing device in response to a manipulation of the link via the other computing device; and authenticating, via the at least one computing device, the other computing device for management of the guest order in response to receiving the order identifier via the confirmation user interface. - View Dependent Claims (37, 38, 39, 40)
