Validating an account available from a benefits provider to make payment for services available from another service provider

Abstract

Techniques for using an account in an electronic store are described, where the account is available from a different electronic platform. For example, a computer system receives, based on a user interface, a request for item information associated with one or more items available from a service provider. The computer system determines, based on a user account with the service provider, an association between the user account and a benefit account with a benefit provider. The computer system determines, based on the association, a deadline for a benefit that is available based on the benefit account, and determines, based on an eligibility of an item for the benefit and on the deadline, that the benefit account is usable to order the item. Further, he computer system provides, to the user interface, a description of the item and an option to use the benefit account for ordering the item.
