Abstract
Computer-based platforms and interfaces for trading a commodity such as primary production commodities, including meat, leather, grains, fruit, vegetables, flowers, seeds, living plants and timber. In particular, a user interface provides for input and output of data or information via an electronic screen. The interface has a text-based chat function for communication between a buyer and a seller, an order function allowing the buyer to order a first product from the seller, and a hyperlinking function to transform a keyword related to the product input by the buyer in the course of using the text-based chat function into a hyperlink actuatable by the buyer. When the buyer actuates the hyperlink, the order function presents an input option for the buyer to add the first product to an order by way of the order function.
