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

Various methods are provided for programmatically providing a platform for requesting on-demand services on a consumer device. One example method may comprise receiving a job request, the job request comprising job request parameters, the job request parameters comprising at least a type of service, a location, and a time frame, identifying one or more merchants able to provide the service in accordance with the job request parameters by determining a subset of the plurality of merchants able to provide the service, at the location, within the time frame, causing transmission of a job offer to at least a first merchant of the subset of one or more merchants identified as able to provide the service in accordance with the job request parameters, receiving at least one response, the at least one response from the first merchant from the one or more merchants, and assigning the job to the first merchant.

Embodiments are provided that improve cybersecurity and data privacy, specifically by obfuscating a sender address utilized to generate, transmit, and/or otherwise cause transmission a corresponding message corresponding to at least one received RTB reply message. Some example embodiments cause provision of at least one reply to buy (RTB) prompt to a sender device, receive a RTB reply message associated with the sender device in response to the at least one RTB prompt, parse, from the RTB reply message, at least a first sender address associated with the RTB reply message, generate a transaction address by at least obfuscating the first sender address associated with at least the RTB reply message, and cause transmission of a message associated with the RTB reply message to a recipient device, the message comprising the transaction address indicated as a second sender address associated with the message.
