  Specifically, the storage unit 205 is realized by a storage device such as a memory of a mobile phone. In the present embodiment, the storage unit 205 stores content.

  The content server 300 is a Web server or application connected to the Internet. The content server 300 is operated by a business operator that is a content holder, and is specifically realized by an information processing device such as a workstation or a personal computer. The content server 300 may be a server operated by a business operator who sells each content on behalf of the content holder. As shown in FIG. 1, the content server 300 includes a communication unit 301, a content transmission unit 302, a sales content information generation unit 303, and a content database 304.

  Specifically, the communication unit 301 is realized by the network interface unit of the content server 300. The communication unit 301 has a function of communicating with the mobile terminal 200 via a network 400 such as the Internet.

Further, the communication unit 301 has a function of receiving a domain corresponding to the content from the portable terminal 200 through the network 400 together with the content transmission request.

  In addition, the communication unit 301 has a function of extracting the content 311 requested to be transmitted from the content database 304 based on the received domain.

  In the present embodiment, expressions such as “received by the communication unit 301” are used, but actually, the CPU of the content server 300 executes processing according to the communication unit 301 that is application software. The same applies to the means of the content server 300 realized by other application software.

  Specifically, the content sending unit 302 and the sales content information generating unit 303 are realized by application software installed in the content server 300.

  The content sending unit 302 has a function of extracting the content 311 from the content database 304. The content sending unit 302 has a function of sending the content 311 to the mobile terminal 200 via the network 400 using the communication unit 301.

  Based on the content 311 stored in the content database 304, the sales content information generation unit 303 generates sales content information (shown in FIG. 2) including the number of purchases of each content 311 at each store for each store. To provide.

  The content database 304 is a large-capacity storage device included in the content server 300, and is specifically realized by a storage device such as a hard disk device. The content database 304 stores a plurality of contents 311 in advance. In the present embodiment, the content database 304 holds content for each store as shown in FIG. The communication unit 301 extracts content based on the received store-specific domain.

  Next, the operation of the portable content purchase registration system according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  In this embodiment, the content holder that operates the content server 300 has signed a contract with the store 100 in advance in order to receive content sales cooperation. As shown in FIG. 4, the store 100 sells to the content holder by providing the user with a two-dimensional barcode including a domain for identifying the content 311 sold by the content holder as a list (content menu). Cooperate. The domain read from the two-dimensional barcode is unique to the store for each content. The content holder is not limited to one store 100, and may contract with a plurality of stores 100 to receive content sales cooperation.

  First, when the user views the content 102 of the content menu 101 at the store 100 and wants to obtain content related to the content 102, the user operates the mobile terminal 200 to read the two-dimensional barcode added to the content 102. . For example, the user photographs a two-dimensional barcode attached to the content 102 using a camera mounted on the mobile terminal 200.

  The two-dimensional barcode reading unit 201 of the portable terminal 200 reads a store-specific domain from the two-dimensional barcode in accordance with a user operation (step S501). Specifically, the two-dimensional barcode reading unit 201 captures a two-dimensional barcode with a camera mounted on the mobile terminal 200 and analyzes a photographed image of the two-dimensional barcode to obtain a store-specific domain.

  When the domain is read, the domain transmission unit 204 transmits a transmission request for the content 311 related to the content 102 to the content server 300 via the network 400 (step S502). In this case, the domain transmission unit 204 transmits a transmission request for the content 311 to the content server 300 based on the domain read by the two-dimensional barcode reading unit 201.

  Upon receiving the content 311 transmission request, the communication unit 301 of the content server 300 extracts the content 311 corresponding to the received domain from the content database 304 (step S503).

  When the content 311 corresponding to the received domain is extracted from the content database 304 (step S503), the content server 300 displays a content site purchase screen on the purchase-side mobile terminal 200 (step S504). The user of the mobile terminal 200 operates the mobile terminal 200 and performs purchase registration according to the purchase screen (step S505).

  When the content server 300 confirms purchase registration of the content 311 from the mobile terminal 200 (step S506), the content server 300 transmits the content 311 to the mobile terminal 200 via the network 400 (step S507).

  When the purchase registration of the content 311 from the mobile terminal 200 is confirmed in the content server 300 (step S506), the sales content information generating unit 303 determines each store-specific information based on the content 311 extracted in step S503. The sales content information (shown in FIG. 2) consisting of the number of content purchases is updated (step S508). Note that the sales content information for each store generated by the sales content information generation unit 303 is provided to each store in response to a request from the store 100.

  According to the above-described operation, the store 100 receives the sales content information generated in the content server 300, and performs sales arrangement of each content based on the sales content information, thereby introducing the content at the store. Thus, it is possible to provide a service that satisfies the user's request. Further, since the sales content information is managed for each store, a reward corresponding to the number of content purchases can be received from the content holder.

It is a block diagram which shows the structure of the portable content purchase registration system concerning this embodiment. This is sales content information for each store generated by the portable content purchase registration system. It is a block diagram which shows the content according to the store hold | maintained at a content server. It is a list of content menus installed in the store. It is a sequence diagram which shows operation | movement of the portable content purchase registration system concerning this embodiment.
