Delivery Exchange Service and Infrastructure

Abstract:

A method and system for providing a delivery exchange service infrastructure are described. In one embodiment, a method for a delivery exchange service is provided. The method includes receiving, at a user interface associated with a first user, a notification from at least one merchant indicating an availability of a new delivery of a parcel to a recipient. The method also includes comparing a fee for the new delivery to a fee for an existing delivery. Upon determining that the fee for the new delivery is more than the fee for the existing delivery, the method includes determining whether a second user is available to receive a transfer of the existing delivery. Upon determining that the second user is available, the method further includes accepting the new delivery and transferring the existing delivery to the second user.
