==METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR USING LOCATION DATA TO GENERATE AND MODIFY PURCHASE INCENTIVES IN THE METAVERSE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240232928 titled 'METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR USING LOCATION DATA TO GENERATE AND MODIFY PURCHASE INCENTIVES IN THE METAVERSE

The abstract of the patent application describes a system for providing purchase incentives to users in a virtual environment, such as a metaverse, based on factors like the user's location, predicted route of travel, and prior transactions within the metaverse. 

* The tracking service in the metaverse records the locations and timeframes of a user as they travel along a route, predicting their subsequent location and associated timeframe.
* Based on this prediction, the tracking service identifies a nearby merchant and generates a purchase incentive for the user to use at that merchant.
* The purchase incentive is then delivered to the user, encouraging them to make a purchase at the identified merchant.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

providing a purchase incentive to a user in a virtual environment such as a metaverse, based on for example the user's location in the metaverse, predicted route of travel in the metaverse, and prior transactions in the metaverse. a tracking service in the metaverse determines a number of locations of a user as they travel along a route in the metaverse and an associated timeframe when they are at each of the locations. the tracking service records the locations and associated timeframes in a location log and analyzes the location log to predict a subsequent location and associated timeframe that the user will be at that location. the tracking service then determines a merchant proximate to the predicted subsequent location of the user in the metaverse and generates a purchase incentive for use at the merchant and delivers the purchase incentive to the user.
