Abstract
Methods and systems for implementing a serverless subscription service. A serverless subscription system can receive, from a user device, a subscription receipt, the subscription receipt having been issued by a third party. The serverless subscription system can authenticate the user as a valid subscriber, then map a user and device identification to the subscriber. The serverless subscription system can then store the mapping in a subscriber database, allowing a subscriber list to be built which is agnostic regarding third party subscription providers.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, from a user device and at a serverless computing system operating a subscription service, a subscription receipt, the subscription receipt having been issued by a third party;
- authenticating, by the serverless computing system interacting with the third party to verify the subscription receipt, that the user device is associated with a valid subscriber, to yield an authentication;
- after the authenticating and via the serverless computing system, mapping at least one of a user identification and a device identification to the subscriber, to yield a mapping;
- and
- storing, via the serverless computing system, the mapping in a subscriber database.
A serverless subscription service configured to perform operations, the operations comprising:
- receiving, from a user device, a subscription receipt, the subscription receipt having been issued by a third party;
- authenticating, by interacting with the third party to verify the subscription receipt, that the user device is associated with a valid subscriber, to yield an authentication;
- after the authenticating, mapping at least one of a user identification and a device identification to the subscriber, to yield a mapping;
- and
- storing the mapping in a subscriber database.
