REMOTE ORDERING SYSTEM

摘要

A system and method for enabling patrons at large-scale events at confined venues utilizes conventional or special hand-held, wireless communication devices to self-order food, drink, souvenir items or services from remote order fulfillment locations within the venue for delivery to the patrons' seats or further processing. Hierarchical menus are provided for visual display or audible presentation of items or services for purchase on the devices, or for presenting other information. Patrons transmit a seat identification code with the order, which is acknowledged, and send a confirmation code upon receipt of order delivery or fulfillment, in the case of services to be rendered later, which causes automatic electronic payment for the order by prearranged means.
