The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods for managing electronic messages via a social networking system. For example, systems and methods described herein involve organizing electronic messages and/or communication threads related to a product offered by sale via the social networking system. Furthermore, systems and methods described herein can generate and send electronic messages that are related to the status of a product that a product seller has advertised for sale via the social networking system.

Managing ecommerce messages via a social networking system

The disclosure relates to systems, methods, and devices for processing payment transactions between a user and a merchant using a messaging bot. In particular, a commerce system allows the user to initiate a communications session with a messaging bot associated with the merchant using natural language. One or more embodiments use natural language processing to analyze messages from the user to the messaging bot, and from the messaging bot to the user, to identify a product and a request to purchase the identified product. Based on the identified product and the request to purchase the product, one or more embodiments initiate a payment transaction on behalf of the user based on a natural language conversation and without redirecting the user away from the communications session. Additionally, one or more implementations provide a payment initiation message from the messaging bot to the user indicating that the payment transaction was initiated.

Processing payment transactions using artificial intelligence messaging services

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and devices for network payment tokenization for processing payment transactions. In particular, the message system allows a consumer to initiate a payment transaction with a merchant. For example, one or more implementations involve identifying a payment authorization number associated with a user account and sending a request for a payment token to a card network system associated with the payment authorization number. One or more embodiments receive a network payment token representing the payment authorization number and a single-use cryptogram corresponding to the payment transaction. Additionally, one or more embodiments generate and send a payment transaction initiation message including the network payment token and single-use cryptogram to the merchant for processing the payment transaction.

Network payment tokenization for processing payment transactions

Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems receive a first input that is associated with a first user profile of a social networking system. The first input includes content, such as a string of text, to be published to the system. A key word is mapped from the received content to an entity and additional content that is an affirmation of support for the entity is suggested for inclusion with the received content. The suggestion of the additional content is transmitted to a user device associated with the first user. A second input confirming the inclusion of the additional content is received. The received content and the additional content are published to the social networking system as a post associated with the first user profile.
