Techniques for providing merchant slot availability management using graphical user interfaces for mobile devices are discussed herein. Some embodiments may include a mobile device with processing circuitry configured to generate a multi-level graphical user interface (mGUI), and provide the mGUI to a touch screen display of the mobile device. The processing circuitry may be further configured to monitor a touch screen for various predefined user inputs for traversing tiered levels, and updating the mGUI. The mGUI may be used to implement interfaces various mobile device interfaces used for organizing hierarchal or structured data. For example, the mGUI may be used to implement a merchant slot management interface that allows merchants to dynamically adjust slot availability and associated properties, manage slots such as by creating tabs, or generate promotions for available slots.

Mobile device merchant availability interface

Provided herein are systems, methods and computer readable media for providing an interface configured to provide a consumer with a number of promotions. In providing such functionality, the system can be configured to, for example, monitor and detect a consumer's selection of a preferred promotion. Upon determining the selection of a preferred promotion, a interactive feedback overlay may be configured to provide an indication acknowledging the consumer's selection of the preferred promotion. In some embodiments, the system may be configured to receive an indication corresponding to a user's desire to remove a particular promotion from a promotional interface.

Interactive personalized graphical feedback overlay

Provided herein are systems, methods and computer readable media for scheduling services and other types of appointments in conjunction with purchasing and/or redeeming deal offers. Merchants may customize a scheduling system to provide scheduling capabilities and deal redemption capabilities to consumers interested in scheduling appointments. A consumer may use the scheduling system to select dates and times, merchant locations, and/or staff members, among other things, when scheduling appointments, and provide deal and/or other payment related information to the merchant. Merchants may use the scheduling system and consumer date received therefrom to track resources across numerous locations, keep apprised of their staffs' availability, receive/generate analytics data related to the affect deals have on their business, and gain a better understanding of their customers. The scheduling system may be integrated into the merchant's website and/or linked to deals offered by a third party promotional system.
