GEO-FENCING NOTIFICATIONS SUBSCRIPTIONS
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for processing geo-fence related notifications, comprising:
- determining a current location of a computing device;
scanning a plurality of geo-fences accessible by the computing device;
upon detecting the current location is within at least one of the plurality of geo-fences, acquiring at least one notification associated with the at least one geo-fence, the at least one notification stored in a user profile of a user posting the at least one notification; and
displaying the at least one notification at a display of the computing device.

Abstract
Systems and methods disclosed herein may include processing geo-fence related notifications. A current location of a computing device may be determined and a plurality of geo-fences accessible by the computing device may be scanned. Upon detecting the current location is within at least one of the plurality of geo-fences, at least one notification associated with the at least one geo-fence may be acquired. The at least one notification may be displayed at a display of the computing device. The current location may be within a threshold distance of a point of interest, and the at least one notification may provide information about the point of interest. The at least one notification may include a consumer review about the point of interest.
