Systems and methods for automated RFID based commerce rewards
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- configuring an RFID transmitter to transmit to a wireless ordering device an RFID transmission pertaining to a human-perceptible advertisement for a service or product offered by a vendor, the advertisement associated with at least one RFID transmitter and associated with a wireless transmission identification signal representing information pertaining to the service or product offered by the vendor, the wireless transmission identification signal being transmitted from the RFID transmitter associated with the advertisement;
tracking, at a first communication device over a communication network, a response to the RFID transmission concerning the human-perceptible advertisement that shares by publishing on a social media network, by communication over the communication network with a social media server of the social media network, an electronic message concerning the human-perceptible advertisement, in which the response is from a second communication device;
calculating a message sharing reward value based on the shared electronic message concerning the human-perceptible advertisement; and
crediting the message sharing reward value to a user account of a user of the wireless ordering device.

Abstract
Systems and methods for social sharing and online publishing of advertisement messages concerning products or services. In one embodiment, an advertising message associated with a radio frequency identification based transmission may be published online by a user of a wireless ordering device. The users sharing of such messages may serve as an endorsement of the brand, product or service. A system, such as a commerce data organization system and/or vendor system, may then reward or credit the message sharer (e.g., consumer affiliate) based on variables the vendor or advertiser chooses, such as social influence, audience reach and performance based metrics. In some cases, the technology involves a method for consumers to engage with RFID based advertising to gain rewards. The rewards may be in the form of affiliate points that consumers may gain each time they share a message.
