DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS ON DELIVERY LOCATION DETECTION THROUGH A WIRELESS BEACON DEVICE

摘要

There are provided systems and methods for delivery instructions on delivery location detection through a wireless beacon device. A merchant may include a wireless beacon, such as a small token or device, inside of a package for delivery. The beacon may communicate with other devices using short range wireless communications. The beacons may detect a location for the package, for example, through a GPS or mapping module, or may utilize the short range wireless communications with devices at a location to determine the package is in proximity to the location. When the location matches a delivery location for the package, delivery instructions for the package may be retrieved and presented to a delivery person in possession of the package. The delivery instructions may include an access code to access a building or property at the delivery location, a contact number for a recipient, or other delivery instruction.
