LOYALTY PROGRAM SERVICE

摘要

A loyalty program associated with a payment processing system is constructed, implemented, and refined through collaboration between collaborative constituents in the payment processing system. A first collaborative constituent may transmits a proposal having at least one parameter of the loyalty program to another collaborative constituents. The first collaborative constituent may receive a response to the proposal and transmit a reply based on the response. All remaining collaborative constituents in the negotiation process agree to a negotiated set of parameters. The negotiated set of parameters for the loyalty program is communicated to a loyalty program implementer that can be one of the collaborative constituents. The same process of proposal, response, and reply can be utilized to refine the negotiated set of parameters as long as the remaining collaborative constituents agree that refinement is in order.
