Description

  The present invention relates to a profit circulation type joint purchase system for products.

  Conventionally, there has been known a system for purchasing members at a low price by recruiting members and purchasing a large amount of desired products in a lump. In addition, the joint profit of purchased products is returned to members. A system that has introduced a point system as a system is also known, and a joint purchase system for products that usually has the same value as cash for products provided between members or management centers that operate associations is also well known. Yes.

  For example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2011-90721 presents a joint purchase system for products using SNS (social networking service).

  According to the joint purchase system presented in the publication, a store terminal installed in a store that sells products, a financial institution terminal that manages an account opened in a financial institution, a management computer that manages the purchase system, Is communicatively connected via the Internet, uses an SNS account, which is an account opened by the SNS operating entity in the financial institution, pays the purchase price for merchandise purchases to SNS members in the store from the SNS account, SNS is used to manage points for purchase, and the SNS acts as a proxy for the payment of product purchases for individual SNS members. The SNS collects purchasing power and points, and returns profits to SNS members. can do.

  However, the point system adopted in the joint purchase system presented in the above publication is the same as the point system conventionally adopted in general, and the member acquires points according to the purchase amount. The mutual benefit of the members is that the product is purchased at a lower price than the individual selling price simply by jointly purchasing the product. In addition, the conventional joint purchase is mainly to purchase goods at a low price, which is one of the causes of price drop due to price destruction.

JP 2011-90721 A

  In the above-described conventional joint purchase system for products using communication, the present invention pursues profit and service not only for members to purchase products at a fixed price by joint purchase but also for mutual relationships between members. It is another object of the present invention to provide a profit-recycling joint purchase system for products that can prevent price drops due to price competition and form a normal product market.

  The product purchase system according to the present invention made to solve the above-described problems includes at least a management server arranged in a management center used by an administrator and a merchandise management arranged in a product provider such as a producer or a market. Communication means for mutually communicating the terminal device, a member terminal device owned by each of a plurality of members who wish to jointly purchase products from the product provider, and the management server, the product management terminal device, and each member terminal device; The management center transmits a request for joint purchase from the management server to the product management terminal device of the product provider for each member who desires joint purchase registered in advance in the management server The product is sent from the product provider to each member, and the manager purchases the purchased product from the management server to the member terminal device of each member by joint purchase. A profit-recycling joint purchasing system for products that grants points that can be purchased by products managed by the management center in accordance with the amount of the product purchased by the member from among the profits obtained, wherein the member is a plurality of members In addition to forming a group, the group adds the number of points earned for each member and distributes the total number of points earned to each member of each group in an uneven manner.

  According to the present invention, a plurality of members selected arbitrarily or according to the will of the members without giving points to the individual members equally as in the past as in the past. Points that belong to a group and are given according to the number of members of the group are given together, and in each group, the points are given according to a ratio determined between members of each group. At this time, for example, one group has a member who supports a part of points given to other members, and a service that supports a part of the points allocated to the member who receives the assistance. It is a combination of volunteering members, members who receive assistance are economically motivated, and members who volunteer for service can fulfill their social responsibilities. Of course, when a large number of members gather, the overall profit from joint purchase increases, so the entire member can purchase at a lower price than a non-member purchaser, but with this system, the product can be purchased at a lower price. One objective is to prevent the market economy from collapsing due to falling commodity prices, and members who serve can also benefit.

  Specifically, for example, a group is formed by transferring a part of the points earned by some members of each member constituting the group to other members constituting the group. Some members can earn more points than the number of points earned by themselves.

  For actual operation, the members of each group and the points earned by those members are recorded in advance on the management server of the management center, and the points earned when joint purchases are made are the members of each member. By transmitting to the terminal, the number of points earned by each member can be confirmed or used.

  In addition, if there are a large number of members who support the service for the number of people who receive assistance in each group, the members who receive assistance can be provided with great support and the burden on the supporting members is reduced.

  If necessary, a member who volunteers can serve as a member of assistance, in which case the member who volunteers for other services will help. The invention is made possible by the existence of members who have a spirit of social service. Depending on the circumstances, members who have joined the spirit of service can also change each other to be in a position where they can receive assistance. However, it is possible to eliminate spurious operations by eliminating the endless chain between groups.

  In the case where the member 31 (member who receives assistance) of each member constituting the group G obtains more points than the point he / she wants, he / she gains extra points or points. By returning the products acquired by the above to the members (supporters) 41, 42, and 43 that constitute the group G, the person who is supported can become a servicer, and also achieve mutual help between members. Can do. The supporter who is to serve may be determined in advance, and if it is specifically recorded in the management server, it can be notified via the terminal device when the upper limit of the number of points earned is exceeded.

  According to the present invention, a member can be given to a group of a plurality of members selected arbitrarily or according to the will of the member without giving points given to the member evenly to individual members as in the past. Points according to the number of members of the group are collectively given, and in each group, the points are given according to a ratio determined between members of each group. At this time, for example, one group is a combination of members who receive assistance and members who volunteer for service, members who receive assistance are economically motivated, and members who volunteer for service fulfill their social responsibilities and profit circulation. Can be satisfied.

1 is a schematic diagram showing a preferred embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a member group configuration in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of different configurations of member groups in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1.

  FIG. 1 shows a preferred embodiment for carrying out the present invention. This system includes at least a management server 111 arranged in a management center 11 used by a manager 1 and products such as producers and markets. 5, a product management terminal device 211 arranged in a producer or market 2 used by the product provider 21 that provides 5, and a plurality of members 31, 41, 42, who wish to jointly purchase products from the product provider 21 Communication means (for example, the Internet, SNS, and online) for mutually communicating the member terminal devices 311, 411, 421, 431, the management server 111, the product management terminal device 211, and each member terminal device ( (Not shown).

  Further, in the present embodiment, the storage terminal device 611 disposed in the warehouse 6 that stores the products 5 that can communicate with each terminal device and the management server 111, and the financial institution 7 such as a bank. A financial institution terminal device 711 is included.

  Next, the usage method of the joint purchase system which is this Embodiment is demonstrated. In this system, first, a plurality of members who have joined for the purpose of joint purchase (for example, a group G of four people in this embodiment form a group G and register them in the storage device of the management server 111 of the management center). In particular, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, some members (supporters) 41, 42, 43 among the members 31, 41, 42, 43 constituting the group G are themselves. Some members (supporters) who form group G by transferring a part (for example, 4%) of the points earned later to other members 31 (members receiving assistance) that make up the group 31 can earn more points (12% increase) than the number of points earned.

  As in the conventional system, this profit circulation type joint purchasing system provides communication means to the management server 111 in which the product 5, which is provided by the producers, the market 2, etc., from the members 31, 41, 42, 43 is arranged in the management center 11. The predetermined product 5 is determined to be purchased regularly or irregularly at a predetermined time or period.

  On the other hand, the members 31, 41, 42, 43 transfer or pay the price of the product 5 to a financial institution 7 such as a bank or a post office designated by the administrator 1.

  Then, the manager 1 confirms the order for the product 5 from the members 31, 41, 42, 43 and the payment notification from the financial institution terminal device 711 of the financial institution 7 by the management server 111, and the management server 111 To the product management terminal device 211 installed in the producer, market 2 or the like to notify the product provider 21.

  The merchandise provider 21 who has received the order for the merchandise 5 sends the goods directly to the storage terminal device 611 installed in the warehouse 6 and ships from the warehouse 6 to the members 31, 41, 42 and 43 of the group G.

  It is to be noted that the management server 111 gives a predetermined point associated with the shipment of the jointly purchased product 5 and the joint purchase by the group G to the member terminal devices of the members 31, 41, 42 and 43 constituting the group G. It transmits to 311, 411, 421, 431.

  Here, it is almost the same as the joint purchase system using the SNS that introduces the conventional point system, but each member 31, 41, 42, 43 forms one group G, and constitutes the group G. Among the members 31, 41, 42, and 43 to be a member, the members (supporters) 41, 42, and 43 constitute a group with a part (for example, 4%) of the point earned later that is given to them. Some members (supporters) 31 who form group G by transferring to other members 31 (members receiving assistance) will earn more points (12% increase) than the points earned by themselves The difference is that it is set as follows.

  In other words, in the joint purchase system adopting the conventional point system, the predetermined points determined for the product 5 are equally given to each member. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. (Members receiving assistance) have the advantage that more points can be obtained than points obtained by the point system employed by the conventional joint purchase.

  Of course, members (supporters) 31, 41, 42, and 43 who want assistance are supporters with good intentions toward society, but by becoming a member, depending on the circumstances after that, support from the supporters It is also possible to change to the recipient and receive assistance.

  In the case where the member 31 (member who receives assistance) of each member constituting the group G obtains more points than the point he / she wants, he / she gains extra points or points. By returning the products acquired through the above process to the members (supporters) 41, 42, and 43 that constitute the group G, the helped person can become a servicer, and mutual help can be achieved. . The supporter who is to serve may be determined in advance, and if it is specifically recorded in the management server, it can be notified via the terminal device when the upper limit of the number of points earned is exceeded.

  In the present embodiment, the unit of one group G has been described. However, when these groups G are formed in parallel as shown in FIG. 3A, for example, as shown in FIG. In particular, the upper member 31 (the person who receives assistance) can obtain more points when they are connected in the vertical direction. However, if the connection is performed indefinitely, there is a concern that it becomes a mouse lecture mode. For example, as shown in FIG.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the member can obtain the goods at a low price by purchasing a large amount as in the past, but what he wants to receive can be obtained in the conventional joint purchase system. More points than points can be earned, while supporters can make social contributions that can help members with fewer points. Of course, if the number of members of this joint purchase system increases and a large number of joint purchases are made, it is possible to prevent the collapse of the market economy due to price destruction by purchasing at a fixed price. It is possible to get more points than points.
