## Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for processing transactions and associated dated. In one exemplary implementation, there is provided a method for processing information associated with transactions involving a product, wherein the product may comprise an experience, a physical product, and/or a digital product. Moreover, illustrative methods may include performing processing associated with a plurality of subroutines, such as a first subroutine for handling an experience, a second subroutine for handling a physical and/or a digital product, and/or one more additional subroutines associated with fulfillment.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system, comprising:
a processor programmed to:
receive, from an application of the system executing at a third-party social media site, a request to access an application canvas page associated with a first user that offers for sale a plurality of items, the application canvas page being integrated into the third-party social media site;
determine that a second user that made the request through the third-party social media site has not provided permission to access a social media account of the second user;
transmit, to the application, an indication of the plurality of items for sale and an indication that access to additional information regarding at least a first item, from among the plurality of items, is conditioned upon permission to access the social media account of the second user;
determine that the permission has been granted by the second user; and
responsive to the determination that the permission has been granted by the second user, transmit the additional information.

provide the additional information via an interface provided by the system, the interface being externally linked out from the third-party social media site.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the application canvas page is integrated within a social media page of the first user at the third-party social media site, the social media page having a portion allocated for the application canvas page.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is further programmed to:
access the social media account of the second user based on the permission granted by the second user;
determine a name of the second user from a social media profile of the social media account; and
store the name of the second user to recognize the second user in subsequent accesses to the application canvas page by the second user.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is further programmed to:
determine that a new item has been added for sale by the first user;
access the social media account of the second user based on the permission granted by the second user; and
post the new item to a social media page of the second user based on the access.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is further programmed to:
identify one or more items, from among the plurality of items, purchased by the second user;
access the social media account of the second user based on the permission granted by the second user;
identify a list of one or more friends of the second user on the third-party social media site based on the permission granted by the second user; and
post, to a respective social media page of each of the one or more friends, an indication of the one or more items purchased by the second user.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the first item comprises a social media interaction to be made by the first user through the social media account of the second user.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The system of claim 7, wherein the processor is further programmed to:
determine a scheduled time at which the social media interaction is to occur; and
provide an indication of the scheduled time to the first user.

### Claim 9 (depends on 7)

The system of claim 7, wherein the processor is further programmed to:
receive, from the second user, requested content to include in the social media interaction; and
provide the requested content to the first user.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the first item comprises an experience or a product.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is further programmed to:
receive, from the second user, an input indicating a suggested experience to be sold by the first user; and
provide, to the first user, an indication of the suggested experience.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The system of claim 11, wherein the processor is further programmed to:
receive, from the second user, a suggested price for the suggested experience; and
provide, to the first user, an indication of the suggested price.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is further programmed to:
receive, from the first user, apportionment information indicating that at least a portion of proceeds resulting from sales of the plurality of items be apportioned to a third party; and
cause some or all the proceeds to be apportioned to the third party based on the apportionment information.

### Claim 14 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the additional information comprises a price of the first item, and wherein a purchase of the first item is conditioned upon the permission.

### Claim 15

receiving, by a processor of a system, from an application of the system executing at a third-party social media site, a request to access an application canvas page associated with a first user that offers for sale a plurality of items, the application canvas page being integrated into the third-party social media site;
determining, by the processor, that a second user that made the request through the third-party social media site has not provided permission to access a social media account of the second user;
transmitting, by the processor, to the application, an indication of the plurality of items for sale and an indication that access to additional information regarding at least a first item, from among the plurality of items, is conditioned upon permission to access the social media account of the second user;
