SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR RECEIVING COUPON AND VENDOR DATA
Systems and methods for receiving product data for products featured in a media asset are described. In some embodiments, the system includes control circuitry that receives from a server data for a plurality of products featured in a media asset. The control circuitry generates for display a list including the plurality of products. The control circuitry determines whether a product in the list is associated with a coupon and/or a preferred vendor. The control circuitry visually distinguishes the product from other products in the list in response to determining that the product is associated with a coupon and/or a preferred vendor.
1 . A method for receiving coupon and vendor data, the method comprising:
receiving, from a server, data for a plurality of products featured in a media asset;
generating for display, using control circuitry, a list including the plurality of products;
determining, using the control circuitry, that a product in the list is associated with at least one of a coupon and a preferred vendor; and
in response to the determining, visually distinguishing the product from other products in the list.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein determining, using the control circuitry, that the product in the list is associated with the at least one of the coupon and the preferred vendor comprises:
retrieving, from a memory, a profile for a user;
determining, using the control circuitry, that the profile includes the at least one of the coupon and the preferred vendor; and
determining, using the control circuitry, that the at least one of the coupon and the preferred vendor included in the profile is associated with the product.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the coupon is received from a vendor offering the product for purchase.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the coupon is received from one of an e-mail account, a t-commerce account, and a social media account for a user.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the coupon is received at an e-mail account for a user from a vendor offering the product for purchase and transferred to a t-commerce account for the user.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein visually distinguishing the product from other products in the list comprises:
generating for display, using the control circuitry, an icon for the product in the list.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein visually distinguishing the product from other products in the list comprises:
generating for display, using the control circuitry, a highlight for the product in the list.
8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein visually distinguishing the product from other products in the list comprises:
generating for display, using the control circuitry, the list including the product in a color different from one or more colors for the other products in the list.
9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein visually distinguishing the product from other products in the list comprises:
generating for display, using the control circuitry, the list including the product above the other products in the list.
10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
generating for display, using the control circuitry, one of a video clip and an image for each product in the list, wherein the one of the video clip and the image include a scene from the media asset featuring the product.
11 . A system for receiving coupon and vendor data, the system comprising:
control circuitry configured to:
receive, from a server, data for a plurality of products featured in a media asset;
generate for display a list including the plurality of products;
determine that a product in the list is associated with at least one of a coupon and a preferred vendor; and
in response to the determining, visually distinguish the product from other products in the list.
12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry configured to determine that a product in the list is associated with at least one of a coupon and a preferred vendor is further configured to:
retrieve, from a memory, a profile for a user;
determine that the profile includes the at least one of the coupon and the preferred vendor; and
determine that the at least one of the coupon and the preferred vendor included in the profile is associated with the product.
13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the coupon is received from a vendor offering the product for purchase.
14 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the coupon is received from one of an e-mail account, a t-commerce account, and a social media account for a user.
15 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the coupon is received at an e-mail account for a user from a vendor offering the product for purchase and transferred to a t-commerce account for the user.
16 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry configured to visually distinguish the product from other products in the list is further configured to:
generate for display an icon for the product in the list.
17 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry configured to visually distinguish the product from other products in the list is further configured to:
generate for display a highlight for the product in the list.
18 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry configured to visually distinguish the product from other products in the list is further configured to:
generate for display the list including the product in a color different from one or more colors for the other products in the list.
19 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry configured to visually distinguish the product from other products in the list is further configured to:
generate for display the list including the product above the other products in the list.
20 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
generate for display one of a video clip and an image for each product in the list, wherein the one of the video clip and the image include a scene from the media asset featuring the product.
