Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and computer program for providing users with notifications of a cashback rewards from a shopping portal using screen and email analysis. A shopping portal system analyzes the content and characteristics of user emails, as well as screens viewed by the user through a client application (e.g., webpages and mobile application screens), to identify probable order-confirmation emails and screens. In response to identifying an order-confirmation email or an order-confirmation screen, the system determines whether a cashback reward should be credited to the user for the order corresponding to the order-confirmation email/screen. In response to an order-confirmation email or screen satisfying the criteria for a cashback reward, the system credits a user account with the cashback reward and notifies the user of the reward.
