Next, a second embodiment of the affiliate service system in FIG. 1 will be described.

  In the first embodiment described above, the collective application 6 is installed from the market, and the store where the mobile terminal 1 is sold is an affiliator (introducer). The second embodiment is an example in the case where an application producer (or an application operator) that provides the collective application 6 is an affiliator. In this case, introducer information is included in the batch application 6 in advance as part of the data. Although the system configuration in the case of the second embodiment is not shown, there is no portable sales store for providing the collective application 6 to the mobile terminal 1 in FIG. An application providing server 8 (FIG. 7) is newly added. The application providing server 8 may be the application providing server 2 described above. That is, the batch application 6 may be installed from the same application providing server 2 as the plurality of applications that are designated for installation.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart (sequence diagram) for explaining the flow of processing when a plurality of applications are installed in the mobile terminal 1 at the same time in the second embodiment.

  In this process, first, the user operates his / her mobile terminal 1 to access the application providing server 8 provided with the collective application 6, and download the collective application 6. That is, in step S211, the mobile terminal 1 accesses the application providing server 8 where the collective application 6 is provided, and requests download.

  As a result, in step S212, the mobile terminal 1 downloads and installs the batch application 6. In the second embodiment, the batch application 6 may be installed from the market.

  In step S213, the mobile terminal 1 activates the installed batch application 6 based on the user's operation, and in step S214, information indicating the application producer that provides the batch application 6 is used as introducer information. , Acquired from the batch application 6.

  The subsequent processes in steps S215 to S222 are the same as the processes in steps S14 to S21 in FIG.

  According to the second embodiment described above, the same effect as that of the first embodiment described above can be obtained.

[Other variations]
In the above-described embodiment, the management server 3 is interposed between the application providing server 2 and the mobile terminal 1 and is responsible for the installation request process and the process for the achievement reward. The application providing server 2 may have this function together. In this case, the collective application 6 directly accesses the application providing server 2 as the installation request transmission destination. Further, the application providing server 2 may also be provided with the processing function of the effect measurement server 4. That is, you may make it perform the function of the application provision server 2, the management server 3, and the effect measurement server 4 with one server.

  In the above-described embodiment, the introducer information necessary for providing the reward to the introducer is included as a parameter in both the installation request and the installation completion notification. However, the introducer information is included in the installation request. Only from the portable terminal 1 may be transmitted to the management server 3.

  In the above-described embodiment, the management server 3 authenticates whether the sales store is a regular introducer based on the introducer information received together with the installation request. However, the store information can be authenticated by determining whether the introducer information acquired from the two-dimensional code 7 includes a predetermined authentication code preset by the affiliate service operator. .

  In the above-described embodiment, the mobile terminal 1 is described as a smartphone. However, the mobile terminal 1 is not limited to a smartphone but may be a tablet terminal such as a PND (Portable Navigation Device) or an electronic book reader, and downloads an application program. Any portable information processing terminal can be used.

  As a modification of the above-described embodiment, a magazine or an individual can be an introducer. For example, when a magazine is an introducer, an article introducing the batch application 6 and a two-dimensional code 7 in which information of a magazine company that issues the magazine is embedded as an introducer is posted (printed) in the magazine. . The user of the mobile terminal 1 who sees the article accesses the market from the mobile terminal 1 to download the batch application 6 and activates it. Then, when the activated batch application 6 reads the two-dimensional code 7 published in a magazine and installs a desired application, a reward is paid to the magazine company that is an introducer. In the magazine, in addition to the two-dimensional code 7 in which the introducer information of the magazine company is embedded, the two-dimensional code in which the information of the download source (access destination of the mobile terminal 1) of the batch application 6 is embedded is also posted.
