Abstract

See full text

A deal manager receives promotional offers from vendors. The deal manager publishes the deals to deal presenters. The deal presenters collect acceptance and payment information which is then sent back to the deal manager. The deal manager processes the payment information and sends a for-hire vehicle request to a reservation and dispatch system. A for-hire vehicle (for example, a taxi, shuttle or limo) is dispatched, or in another embodiment, the destination of a for-hire vehicle is modified so that a passenger may be transported to a location where the deal may be redeemed. The deal manger transmits a voucher containing a unique voucher code to the deal presenter. Vendors and drivers of for-hire vehicles validate the voucher using the unique voucher code.
