Abstract

Systems, apparatus, methods, and non-transitory media for providing multiple items for purchase to consumers are discussed herein. Some embodiments may include a system including circuitry configured complete a purchase of a first item using transaction data provided the consumer. The circuitry may be further configured to provide additional items to the consumer for a subsequent instant transaction. Using the same transaction data for the instant transaction as the purchase of the first item, the instant transaction may be streamlined by minimizing required consumer inputs. Some embodiments may additionally or alternatively provide for streamlined consumer inputs for the purchase of the first item.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 .- 20 . (canceled) 
     
     
         21 . A system, comprising:

 a communications module configured to connect with consumer devices via a network; and 
 a processor in communication with the communications module, the processor being configured to:
 provide an electronic user interface to a consumer device associated with a consumer via the network, the electronic user interface comprising an impression with an indication of one or more items; 
 receive, via the network and from the consumer device, a buy button selection input associated with the electronic user interface, the buy button selection input indicating a selected item; 
 complete a transaction for the selected item based on purchase transaction data associated with the consumer device; 
 determine a plurality of additional items, comprising:
 determine data representing a plurality of available items; 
 assign a relevance metric to each of the plurality of available items based on item search queries associated with the consumer; and 
 select the plurality of additional items from the plurality of available items based on relevance metrics of the plurality of available items; 
 
 generate a purchase redirect display comprising redirect content, the redirect content comprising a plurality of impressions associated with the plurality of additional items; and 
 provide, via the network, the purchase redirect display to the electronic user interface. 
 
   
     
     
         22 . The system of  claim 21 , wherein the processor is configured to further:
 in response to determining that the transaction for the selected item is not completed, initiate a first countdown timer indicating a first pre-determined time period.   
     
     
         23 . The system of  claim 21 , wherein the processor is configured to further:
 subsequent to completing the transaction for the selected item, initiate a second countdown timer indicating a second pre-determined time period.   
     
     
         24 . The system of  claim 21 , wherein the processor is configured to further:
 arrange the plurality of impressions based on relevance metrics of the plurality of additional items.   
     
     
         25 . The system of  claim 24 , wherein the processor is configured to further:
 receive, via the network and from the consumer device, a first additional item selection input, the first additional item selection input indicating a first additional item from the plurality of additional items; and   complete an instant transaction for the first additional item based on the purchase transaction data, the instant transaction being a one-click transaction comprising the first additional item selection input associated with the purchase redirect display without a subsequent confirmation input to complete the instant transaction.   
     
     
         26 . The system of  claim 25 , wherein the purchase redirect display comprises at least one of digital content describing the first additional item and a link to the digital content. 
     
     
         27 . The system of  claim 25 , wherein the processor is further configured to generate a purchase summary display indicating the instant transaction. 
     
     
         28 . The system of  claim 27 , wherein the purchase summary display comprises a change transaction data selection, wherein the processor is further configured to:
 in response to receiving an indication of consumer selection of the change transaction data selection within a third predefined time period, modify the instant transaction for the first additional item using the purchase transaction data.   
     
     
         29 . A computer-implemented method comprising:
 providing an electronic user interface to a consumer device associated with a consumer via a network, the electronic user interface comprising an impression with an indication of one or more items;   receiving, via the network and from the consumer device, a buy button selection input associated with the electronic user interface, the buy button selection input indicating a selected item;   completing a transaction for the selected item based on purchase transaction data associated with the consumer device;   determining a plurality of additional items, comprising:
 determining data representing a plurality of available items; 
 assigning a relevance metric to each of the plurality of available items based on item search queries associated with the consumer; and 
 selecting the plurality of additional items from the plurality of available items based on relevance metrics of the plurality of available items; 
   generating a purchase redirect display comprising redirect content, the redirect content comprising a plurality of impressions associated with the plurality of additional items; and   providing, via the network, the purchase redirect display to the electronic user interface.   
     
     
         30 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 29 , further comprising:
 in response to determining that the transaction for the selected item is not completed, initiating a first countdown timer indicating a first pre-determined time period.   
     
     
         31 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 29 , further comprising:
 subsequent to completing the transaction for the selected item, initiating a second countdown timer indicating a second pre-determined time period.   
     
     
         32 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 29 , further comprising:
 arranging the plurality of impressions based on relevance metrics of the plurality of additional items.   
     
     
         33 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 32  further comprising:
 receiving, via the network and from the consumer device, a first additional item selection input, the first additional item selection input indicating a first additional item from the plurality of additional items; and 
 completing an instant transaction for the first additional item based on the purchase transaction data, the instant transaction being a one-click transaction comprising the first additional item selection input associated with the purchase redirect display without a subsequent confirmation input to complete the instant transaction. 
 
     
     
         34 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 33 , wherein the purchase redirect display comprises at least one of digital content describing the first additional item and a link to the digital content. 
     
     
         35 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 33 , further comprising generating a purchase summary display indicating the instant transaction. 
     
     
         36 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 35 , wherein the purchase summary display comprises a change transaction data selection, wherein the computer-implemented method further comprises:
 in response to receiving an indication of consumer selection of the change transaction data selection within a third predefined time period, modifying the instant transaction for the first additional item using the purchase transaction data.   
     
     
         37 . A computer program product comprising at least one computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program instructions stored therein, the computer-readable program instructions comprising an executable portion configured to:
