Abstract

Online marketplace experiences are substantially enhanced by employing marketplace infrastructures. A marketplace infrastructure can provide structured features desired by most customers without requiring a user to be redirected from the marketplace. Marketplace infrastructure mechanisms allow these features to be called based on intentions shown by users. In one instance, this is accomplished by utilizing icons placed in proximity of the marketplace. Users show their interest in the icons to initiate the desired feature. Once initiated, a user can then interact with the feature provided by the marketplace infrastructure. This substantially increases the speed at which purchasing steps can be made.
