Abstract
Embedding applications, or parts thereof, into other applications, or parts thereof, is described. In an example, an engagement with a first application associated with a merchant can be detected, which can cause the first application to add a user to a waitlist associated with a merchant location of the merchant, and a notification can be sent to a user computing device of the user. Detecting an interaction with an interactable element of the notification can trigger a second application associated with the merchant to be initialized in response to the engagement. In at least one example, the first application can provisionally transition to the second application, or a part thereof. Based at least in part on detecting a user interaction with the second application, and a menu can be presented via a user interface associated with the second application via the user computing device.
