Abstract

Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure discussed herein may be used to facilitate the authorization of services between service providers and other users (e.g. customers of the service provider) with accounts on a social network. Unlike conventional authorization systems, embodiments of the present disclosure allow authorizations to occur dynamically at any time, regardless of the physical locations of the service provider and the customer. Embodiments of the present disclosure can also provide service providers and customers information on authorization requests on demand.
