Abstract

See full text

A computing device is communicatively coupled to an optical scanner and redeems coupons by receiving data produced by an optical scan of a product code associated with a coupon. The product code encodes a primary processing action to be performed by the computing device when processing the coupon and a modifier identifying a remote storage location. The remote storage location stores instructions defining a secondary processing action to be performed by the computing device when processing the coupon. The computing device detects a predetermined trigger event associated with processing the coupon, and in response, retrieves the instructions defining the secondary processing action from the remote storage location. The computing device executes the instructions to redeem the coupon according to the secondary processing action.
