The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for validating an order purchased with an unspecified term. The order may comprise an order for an access ticket or admission ticket or access token, an order for goods or services, or any combination of access, goods, and services. Validation may comprise determining the ticket or token is valid and/or allowing access based on a determined data value for an access term unspecified at the time of purchase; or determining that the order is valid and fulfilling the order based on an identified data value for a term unspecified at the time of purchase. A data value may be set for the unspecified term and a hierarchical tree searched for a leaf corresponding to the set value for the unspecified term and one or more terms specified at time of purchase, the existence of the leaf indicating the order is valid. |

1. A method of validating an access ticket to an attraction, the method comprising:
receiving, by a first device, a request to validate an access ticket to an attraction, the request including a ticket identification and an attraction identification, the access ticket having been purchased with at least one unspecified access term from a group consisting of a destination name, event name, venue name, and attraction name; setting, by a validation engine executed by the first device, responsive to receiving the request, a data value for the at least one unspecified access term, the data value selected by the validation engine from a plurality of predetermined data values according to the received attraction identification; determining, by the validation engine and based on the set data value for the at least one unspecified access term, that access is permitted to the attraction identified by the attraction identification; transmitting, by the first device and responsive to the determination, a validation response to validate the access ticket to the attraction; and determining to pay a predetermined net price to an operator of the attraction, the predetermined net price based on the set data value for the at least one unspecified access term. |
