Integration of transaction status indications
Facilitating transaction status indications for point-of-sale (POS) systems is described. A POS application stored on a POS terminal of a POS system may communicate with a payment reader device coupled to the POS terminal and a payment server application. The POS application may receive, from a customer device associated with a customer and via a short-range communication network, payment information for satisfying a cost of a transaction. The POS application may send the payment information to the payment server application to attempt to authorize the payment information for the cost of the transaction and may receive, from the payment server application, an indication of a status of the transaction. Responsive to receiving the indication of the status of the transaction, the payment reader device and the customer device may output respective aspects of a transaction status indication associated with the status of the transaction.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a point-of-sale (POS) application associated with a POS system, transaction data associated with a transaction between a customer and a merchant;
determining, by the POS system, an indication associated with the transaction based at least in part on merchant data associated with the merchant, customer data associated with the customer, or the transaction data, wherein the indication comprises a multimedia signal that is customized based on one or more of the merchant data, the transaction data, or the customer data; and
sending, by the POS system, instructions associated with the indication to cause:
a merchant device to output a first portion of the multimedia signal, wherein the first portion of the multimedia signal being stored in a first library of a first datastore of the POS system; and
a device associated with the customer to output a second portion of the multimedia signal, the second portion of the multimedia signal being stored in a second library of a second datastore of the device.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the multimedia signal is associated with at least one of an audio signal or a visual signal.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the merchant device, input specifying one or more parameters associated with the first portion of the multimedia signal; and
storing, in a profile of the merchant, an association between the first portion of the multimedia signal and the one or more parameters,
wherein sending the instructions is based at least in part on the one or more parameters being met.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the one or more parameters include a time interval, approval of the transaction, a transaction type, an amount of the transaction, a location, a device type, a merchant type, or an event.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the merchant device, a customized indication associated with a third-party system; and
storing, by the POS system, an association between the customized indication and a profile of the merchant.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the multimedia signal and the second portion of the multimedia signal comprise different outputs.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the device, input specifying one or more parameters associated with the second portion of the multimedia signal; and
storing, in a profile of the customer, an association between the second portion of the multimedia signal and the one or more parameters,
wherein sending the instructions is based at least in part on the one or more parameters being met.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the instructions are associated with a first time interval and a second time interval, wherein lapse of the first time interval causes the merchant device to output the first portion of the multimedia signal and the lapse of the second time interval causes the device to output the second portion of the multimedia signal.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the instructions cause the device to output the second portion of the multimedia signal in a time-synchronized manner with the first portion of the multimedia signal.
10. A system, comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media executable by the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving, by a first device associated with a point-of-sale (POS) system, transaction data associated with a transaction between a customer and a merchant, wherein the POS system determines an indication associated with the transaction, wherein the indication:
is customized based on one or more of merchant data of the merchant, the transaction data, or customer data of the customer; and
comprises a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion and the second portion are output by different devices;
receiving, by the first device, a first instruction to output the first portion of the indication, wherein the second portion of the indication is sent as a second instruction to a second device associated with the customer to be output in association with the transaction;
retrieving, in response to receiving the first instruction and from a library within a datastore of the POS system, the first portion of the indication; and
outputting, via the first device, the first portion of the indication.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the indication comprises a multimedia signal, the multimedia signal being associated with at least one of an audio signal or a visual signal.
12. The system of claim 10 , the operations further comprising:
receiving, by the first device, input specifying one or more parameters associated with the first portion of the indication; and
sending, to the POS system, a message indicating an association between the first portion of the indication and the one or more parameters, wherein:
the POS system stores the association in a merchant profile of the merchant; and
the first instruction is based at least in part on the one or more parameters being met.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the one or more parameters include a time interval, approval of the transaction, a transaction type, an amount of the transaction, a location, a device type, a merchant type, or an event.
14. The system of claim 10 , the operations further comprising:
receiving, by the first device, a customized indication associated with a third-party system; and
storing, by the POS system, an association between the customized indication and a profile of the merchant.
15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first portion of the indication and the second portion of the indication comprise different outputs.
16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first instruction is associated with a first time interval and the second instruction are associated with a second time interval, wherein lapse of the first time interval causes the first device to output the first portion of the indication and the lapse of the second time interval causes the second device to output the second portion of the indication.
17. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media executable by one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
sending, by a first device and to a point-of-sale (POS) application associated with a POS system, transaction data associated with a transaction between a customer and a merchant, wherein the POS system determines an indication associated with the transaction, the indication:
is customized based on one or more of merchant data of the merchant, the transaction data, or customer data of the customer; and
comprises a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion and the second portion are output by different devices;
receiving, by the first device and from the POS application, a first instruction to output the first portion of the indication, wherein the second portion of the indication is sent as a second instruction to a second device associated with the POS system;
retrieving, in response to receiving the first instruction and from a library within a datastore of the first device, the first portion of the indication; and
outputting, via the first device, the first portion of the indication.
18. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as claim 17 recites, wherein the indication comprises a multimedia signal, the multimedia signal being associated with at least one of an audio signal or a visual signal.
19. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as claim 17 recites, the operations further comprising:
