Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing physical rewards from disbursed networked dispensers are disclosed. The systems and methods may involve at least one processor configured to: maintain and cause to be displayed a workflow table having rows, columns and cells; track a workflow milestone via a designated cell configured to maintain data indicating that the workflow milestone is reached; access a data structure storing a rule containing a condition associated with the designated cell and a conditional trigger associated with at least one dispenser; receive an input via the designated cell; compare the input with the condition to determine a match; and activate the conditional trigger to cause at least one dispensing signal to be transmitted over a network to the at least one dispenser to cause the at least one dispenser to dispense a physical item as a result of the milestone being reached.
