Abstract

Some embodiments are directed to a computer implemented method for transporting a good. The method may comprise receiving, on a first client device, an electronic user request for transporting the good from a pickup location to a destination location. The electronic user request may include a unique identifier corresponding to the good. The method may include assigning the electronic user request to a transport provider. The method may include authenticating the good, rejecting the good, and authorizing the good for transport when the good is authenticated. The transport provider may capture an image of the good. Authenticating the good may include scanning the captured image to identify features, comparing the unique identifiers to the identified features, and authenticating the good when the unique identifier matches the identified features. The good may be rejected if there is not a match between the unique identifier and the identified goods.
