Method, systems, and apparatus for generating an online storefront for a merchant, comprising receiving, by an inventory management system (IMS) and from a point of sale (POS) device, an indication of a user input to a first graphical user interface (GUI) representing a merchant request to generate the online storefront comprising one or more second GUIs; generating and activating the online storefront; retrieving inventory data associated with the merchant; transmitting, to a customer device, a second GUI that includes item information; receiving a customer request to purchase an item; transmitting, to a payment service system (PSS) that manages the IMS, the customer request; receiving an indication that the payment has been processed by the PSS; receiving a command from the PSS to update the inventory data; receiving a request from the POS device to deactivate the online storefront; and removing the customer device's access to the online storefront.

Generating an online storefront

In some examples, a system may receive a notification of a transaction using a first device, wherein the notification includes an identifier that identifies at least one of: a user, or a second device associated with the user. The system may send, to the second device, based on the identifier included in the notification, a communication to cause the second device to present a user interface that displays information about the transaction. Further, the system may receive, from the second device, prior to completion of processing the transaction, an indication of a user input received via the user interface indicating a confirmation of the information about the transaction. Based at least on receiving the confirmation from the second device, the system may submit, to a payment processor, information related to the transaction to enable the payment processor to determine whether to approve the transaction.

Verifying information through multiple device interactions

Method, systems, and apparatus for generating a storefront for a merchant, comprising: receiving transaction data associated with a brick and mortar (BOM) transaction, processing a payment for the BOM transaction, updating inventory data based on the transaction data, receiving a request to generate an online storefront for a point of sale system of the merchant, where the point of sale system includes inventory data of a plurality of items for sale, identifying the plurality of items for sale from the inventory data from point of sale system; generating one or more resources for each item of the plurality of items for sale; causing display of the graphical user interface comprising the one or more resources to be presented to enable purchase of an item, and updating the inventory data based on a purchase of the item by the ecommerce customer.

In some examples, a system receives, from a first device, an indication of a location of the first device and a notification of a transaction including an identifier that identifies both a customer and a second device associated with the customer. The system may send information related to the notification to cause the second device to present details related to the transaction. The system may receive, from the second device, an indication of a location of the second device, and may determine that the first device is in proximity to the second device by comparing the location of the first device to the location of the second device. The system may submit, to a payment processor, information related to the transaction and the determination of proximity for authentication to enable the payment processor to determine whether to approve the transaction based at least on the determination of proximity.

Verifying proximity during payment transactions

Method, systems, and apparatus for processing a transaction for a customer using a first device and a second device, comprising: receiving a notification from the first device, where the notification includes a selection of one or more items for purchase, where the notification includes an identifier, and where the identifier uniquely identifies both the customer and a second device; determining that the second device is in proximity to the first device as an authentication measure; in response to the determining, sending the determination to the second device, where the second device displays details regarding the selection of the one or more items for purchase; receiving, from the second device, user input indicating a confirmation of the purchase of the one or more items; submitting, to a payment processor, the details for authentication.

Method, systems, and apparatus for generating a storefront for a merchant, comprising: receiving a single indication to generate an online storefront for a point of sale system of the merchant, where the point of sale system includes inventory data of a plurality of items for sale; identifying the plurality of items for sale from the inventory data from point of sale system; and generating one or more resources for each item of the plurality of items for sale, where the one or more resources include details of the item, where the details are obtained from the inventory data, where the one or more resources are accessible from a web domain.
