Abstract
Implementations of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for seamlessly transferring a communication session from a first client to a second client via a close-range communication connection. Implementations contemplate serializing a set of unique identifiers pertaining to a communication session and transmitting the set of serialized identifiers from the first client to the second client via a close-range communication connection. The second client de-serializes the set of unique identifiers and transmits a request to a communication session server to assume control of the communication session from the first client. A communication session server may perform an authentication of the second client that requires the second client to provide credentials associated with a user account. In some implementations, the present disclosure provides for the creation of a temporary use token that enables a client to temporarily acquire credentials associated with a user account.
