  Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  A reference numeral 1 shown in FIG. 1 shows a gift giving / receiving system as a whole, and the user terminals 2 to 3 and the server apparatus 4 possessed by a plurality of users can communicate with each other via a communication circuit such as the Internet. The gift giving / receiving system 1 includes, as user terminals, a gifter terminal 2 possessed by a gift giving side and a transfer terminal 3 possessed by a gift receiving side. In the gift delivery system 1, gift purchase rights called “presents” are exchanged between users.

  As the user terminal, various computer terminals such as a smartphone, a personal computer, and a tablet terminal are used. For convenience, the presenter terminal 2 will be described as a smartphone and the transfer terminal 3 will be described as a personal computer. Of course, the giver terminal 2 may be a tablet terminal or a personal computer terminal, and the transfer terminal 3 may be a smartphone or a tablet terminal. The server device 4 may be a single terminal or a combination of a plurality of terminals, but is assumed to operate as a single device.

  In the gift giving / receiving system 1, the gift giving / receiving process, which will be described later, is executed by the giver terminal 2, the assigning terminal 3, and the server device 4 communicating with each other. In the present embodiment, a case where gift giving / receiving processing is executed using a browser such as Internet Explorer (registered trademark) will be described. However, application software or a program is downloaded to the user terminals 2 to 3 and gift giving / receiving processing is performed. May be executed.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a control unit 21 including a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a ROM (Read Only Memory), and a RAM (Random Access Memory) controls the entire gift terminal 2. To control and execute gift giving and receiving processing. Since the gift giver terminal 2 is a smartphone, the gift giver terminal 2 has the call unit 26, but the call call unit 26 is not necessarily essential.

  When a user requests to start a browser application (hereinafter simply referred to as a browser) by operating the external interface 23, the control unit 21 uses an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), an SSD (Solid State Drive), or the like. The browser is read from the configured storage unit 25 and activated by being expanded in the RAM.

  At this time, the control unit 21 acquires image information including the image data of the web page specified for the initial setting via the external interface 23 in response to a request for reading the initial setting web page made from the browser. At the same time, the acquired image information is supplied to the display unit 24. As a result, an initial web page is displayed on the display unit 24, and the user can recognize that the activation of the browser has ended.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the transfer terminal 3 is configured such that a control unit 41 including a CPU, a ROM, and a RAM performs overall control of the transfer terminal 3 to execute a gift transfer process.

  When the activation of the browser is requested by the operation of the external interface 33, the control unit 31 of the transfer terminal 3 reads the browser software from the storage unit 35 constituted by an HDD, an SSD, etc., and activates it by developing it in the RAM. . That is, the control unit 31 acquires image information including initial setting image data of the browser software, and supplies this to the display unit 34 and the output unit 37. As a result, an initial setting screen of browser software is displayed on the display unit 34, and sound is output from the output unit 37.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the server device 4 is configured such that a control unit 41 including a CPU, a ROM, and a RAM comprehensively controls the entire server device 4 to execute a gift giving / receiving process. The storage unit 45 stores three databases (hereinafter, the database is abbreviated as DB).

  In the customer DB, a customer ID (IDentification) assigned to each customer and information related to the user (user registration information and user related information) are registered in association with each other. In the point management DB, a customer ID, the number of present presents held, a present purchase history, present gift history information, and present exchange history information are registered in association with each other. The card DB is registered in association with a card ID assigned to each created message card and card information input to the message card.

  When the giver terminal 2 recognizes that a request to display the member registration screen of the gift giving / receiving system is made by the operation of the giver user via the external interface 23 in a state where the browser is activated, A request signal for supplying image information of the member registration screen is transmitted to the member registration screen. The server device 4 supplies image information including image data of the member registration screen to the giver terminal 2.

  As a result, as shown in FIG. 5, the member registration screen 101 of the gift delivery system 1 is displayed on the display unit 24 of the gifter terminal 2. The giver user GU performs user registration by inputting user registration information (e-mail address, mobile phone number, password) in the displayed input fields 102 a to 102 c and operating the member registration button 103. The server device 4 performs so-called SMS authentication in which a time-limited password (one-time password) is transmitted to an SMS (Short Message Service) using the mobile phone number and the user is input. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress fraud by creating only one account for each user terminal.

  The gift giver user GU can also perform member registration by operating the SNS registration button 104. In this case, the server device 4 acquires user registration information from the designated SNS with the consent of the gift user GU. Also in this case, SMS authentication is performed.

  When acquiring the user registration information, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 generates an account for the gifter user GU. Specifically, a new customer ID is issued to the customer management DB in the storage unit 45 of the server device 4, and the customer ID and member registration information are registered in association with each other.

  Subsequently, the control unit 41 transmits image information including the image data of the menu screen to the giver terminal 2. As a result, as shown in FIG. 6, the menu screen 111 is displayed on the display unit 24 of the giver terminal 2.

  On the menu screen 110, a decorative symbol display area 112 and menu buttons 113 to 116 are displayed. In the decorative symbol display area 112, the name “message card DE present”, which is the name of the site, an image symbol, and the number of present gifts are described. “Present” means a point (gift purchase right) used in the gift giving / receiving system 1 and is converted as 1 yen = 1 present.

  The menu button 114 describes “Give a present”. When the control unit 41 of the server device 4 recognizes that the gift user GU has operated the menu button 114 via the gift terminal 2, the image information including the image data of the type selection screen is supplied to the gift terminal 2. . The control unit 41 of the server device 4 supplies image information in accordance with the operation of the giver terminal 2 in the same procedure, and a screen is displayed on the display unit 24. However, description of this part is omitted below. In this specification, “operating a button” refers to a tap for directly placing a finger on the screen or an operation for placing a cursor on the screen and clicking.

  As a result, as shown in FIG. 7, the type selection screen 121 is displayed on the display unit 24 of the giver terminal 2. On the type selection screen 121, type selection buttons 123a to 123d and 124a to 124b are displayed. The type selection buttons 123a to 123d are buttons that are mainly operated when giving presents for celebration, and the type selection buttons 124a to 124b mainly send a fragrance or the like when the relatives of the transferee are unhappy. Used when. Of course, even if it is not a special celebration, it is used as a gift in various cases, such as encouragement and requests.

  For example, when the giver user GU operates the type selection button 123c described as “5,000 yen for celebration”, the settlement process is started. Specifically, a payment screen (not shown) having a payment selection button describing a plurality of payment methods is displayed on the display unit 24 of the gifter terminal 2. For example, when the gift user GU selects a credit card, an input field for inputting credit card information such as a credit card number and an expiration date and a settlement button are displayed.

  When the giver user GU inputs the credit card information and operates the settlement button, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 authenticates the credit card information through communication with the credit card company. If the authentication is successful, the control unit 41 registers the number of presents purchased as a present purchase history (5,000 presents) and the purchase date and time in the point management DB. As a result, “5,000 presents” is added to the current number of presents held.

  Subsequently, a plurality of thumbnails of message card symbols that can be selected from the selected present amount are displayed on the display unit 24 of the presenter terminal 2 (not shown). This message card design is changed according to the amount and usage. For example, for “250 yen for celebration”, you can select flowers and small bouquets. In addition, the bouquet becomes larger and more luxurious as the amount of money increases to “5,000 yen for celebration” and “10,000 yen for celebration”. Moreover, you may enable it to select patterns, such as a noble metal accessory and fireworks. For condolences, message card designs have been prepared for the purposes of gifts, such as funeral flowers and people wearing mourning.

  For example, when the gift user GU operates a thumbnail of a message card symbol representing a bouquet after “5,000 yen for celebration”, a message card symbol is displayed on the display unit 24 of the gift terminal 2 as shown in FIG. A screen 131 is displayed. On the message card symbol screen 131, a symbol region 132, a message region 133, a symbol selection button 134, and an OK button 135 are displayed.

  The giver user GU inputs a message to the message area 133 via the external interface 23. If the gift user GU does not like the message card symbol, the user can operate the symbol selection button 134 to return to the previous screen and select the message card symbol again.

  When the giver user GU operates the OK button 135, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 stores the MC (message card) image information based on the message card, and issues a card ID corresponding to the MC image information. A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) issued in association with the MC image information is registered in the card DB. In the card DB, the customer ID of the giver user GU is registered as a giver.

  As shown in FIG. 9, a card transmission screen 141 is displayed on the display unit 24 of the gifter terminal 2. On the card transmission screen 141, transmission selection buttons 142 to 143, a URL display field 144, and a URL copy button 145 are displayed.

  When the giver user GU operates the transmission selection button 142 in which “mail” is described, the control unit 21 of the gifter terminal 2 starts a mail program set in advance and creates a mail (for creating a new mail) ( (Not shown).

  In this mail creation screen, the new mail address (recipient mail address) is blank, but the sender mail address and title are described by default. The sender e-mail address is the same as that used for account registration, and the title is automatically described with a title that indicates that a present is given, for example, “Give a present”. Of course, it is also possible to change the contents manually.

  In the mail content column, the name entered in the address of the message card and the URL of the present gift screen (details will be described later) are described. "Please receive" ", and a sentence prompting the operation of the URL is described. The giver user GU may operate the send button to send the mail as it is, or may add a text to the mail.

  When the gift giver user GU operates the transmission selection button 143 described as “SNS”, the control unit 21 of the gift giver terminal 2 starts a preset SNS program. In addition, when the SNS registration information of the giver user GU is not registered in the customer DB, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 prompts the giver user GU to log in to the SNS or input the SNS registration information. At this time, the above-described SMS authentication is preferably performed. As a result, the control unit 41 acquires the SNS registration information as the user related information by downloading the information registered in the SNS or inputting the giver user GU, and registers it in the customer DB in association with the customer ID.

  The control unit 21 of the giver terminal 2 searches the name input to the address of the message card from the address information of the SNS, displays a list of users having a high match rate as candidates for a gift destination, and selects manually. Show button. When there is a name of a person who wants to give a gift to the gift destination candidate list, the giver user GU designates one user from the gift candidate list as a gift destination.

  The control unit 21 automatically inputs the URL of the present gift screen and the text prompting the operation of the URL in the message transmission field of the SNS. The giver user GU transmits a message via the SNS to the assigned user TU by adding a sentence or operating the return key as it is.

  On the other hand, when the URL copy button 145 is operated, the control unit 21 copies the URL displayed in the URL display field 144 to the clipboard. The giver user GU sends a URL to the assigning user TU by pasting it on a mail or SNS message function, SMS, or a text inputable file and attaching it to a mail.

  It should be noted that the present is temporarily given at the stage where any of the operations of mail transmission, SNS message transmission, or URL copy is performed. That is, while the present gift in the point management DB is subtracted by 5,000 presents, a gift ID, a temporary gift 5,000 present, and a card ID are registered together as gift history information.

  As described above, after selecting the message card, the gift giver user GU can give a present by a simple method of simply transmitting the URL of the present gift screen to the assigning user TU.

  When the transferred user TU that has received an e-mail or SNS message clicks on the URL displayed on the display unit 34 of the transfer terminal 3, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 has a corresponding URL message as shown in FIG. A message transfer screen 201 based on the card information is displayed on the display unit 34 of the transfer terminal 3.

  On the message exchange screen 201, a symbol area 202, a message area 203, an exchange present display field 204, and a receipt button 205 are displayed. In the symbol area 202, a symbol image selected by the gifter user GU is displayed, and in the message area 203, a message input by the gifter user GU is displayed. The received / presented gift display field 204 displays the number of points of presents given by the presenter user GU.

  When the assigning user TU operates the receiving button 205, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 subtracts 5,000 presents from the provisional gift of the giver user GU in the point management DB and 5 presents the presents held by the assigning user TU. Only 1,000 gifts will be added.

  That is, in the gift giving / receiving system 1, the present is officially moved not when the presenter user GU gives a present but when the assigning user TU receives the present. Thereby, the transfer user TU needs to visually check the message transfer screen 201 in order to receive the present, and can surely check the message of the giver user GU.

  Note that if the transferred user TU does not receive a present even after a certain period of time, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 executes a predetermined unaccepted handling process. The control unit 41 executes, for example, first to third stage non-reception processing according to a period in which the control is not received.

  As a first step, a reminder is sent to the mail or SNS message used for the assigned user TU. As the contents of the reminder, the mail or message that has already been transmitted is added with the contents indicating that it is a reminder.

  As a second stage, the control unit 41 transmits an e-mail to the giver user GU to inform that the transfer user TU has not received a present. When the giver user GU sends the URL by himself using the URL copy button 145, this second stage is the first. Both the first stage and the second stage are performed one or more times.

  As a third stage, a gift giving / receiving cancellation process is executed, and the 5,000 presents registered as temporary gifts to the presenter user GU are added to the presents, and the present is notified to the presenter user GU. . Notifications are made when you log in to your email or account.

  When the receiving button 205 on the message transfer screen 201 is operated, an exchange selection screen 211 is displayed on the display unit 34 of the transfer terminal 3 as shown in FIG. On the replacement selection screen 211, replacement selection buttons 213a to 213f indicating replacement targets are displayed. Presents can be exchanged for gift cards, items such as electrical appliances and foods, points that can be used at Internet shops, stores, etc., as well as gift cards. Note that the exchange selection screen 211 is also displayed when the gift button GU or a logged-in user who is not giving or receiving operations operates the menu button 113 on the menu screen 111 (FIG. 6). Hereinafter, the case where the transfer user TU performs the exchange process will be described, but the same applies to the gifted user GU and the logged-in user who has not transferred. If the exchange button 216 is operated after “Replace later” is displayed, a personal computer display type selection screen 121 (FIG. 7) is displayed.

  For example, when the transfer user TU operates the exchange selection button 213a on which “exchange with gift card” is displayed, a gift card exchange screen 231 is displayed on the display unit 34 of the transfer terminal 3 as shown in FIG. On the gift card exchange screen 231, an exchange condition display field 232, a destination information input field 233, an exchange decision button 234, and a return button 235 for returning to the previous screen are displayed.

  In the exchange condition display field 232, in addition to the present present user TU's possessed present number and the present number after the exchange, the present number corresponding to the present number to be exchanged and the administrative fee required for the exchange are included as the number of present gifts required for the exchange. The number of presents and the number of presents corresponding to the shipping cost are displayed.

  In the destination information input field 233, information necessary for sending the exchanged item such as name, age, postal code, address, and telephone number to the transfer user TU is input. Note that the name and telephone number are displayed as default values in a state where user registration information is input.

  When the user operates the exchange determination button 234, the present is exchanged for an exchange target under the displayed conditions. That is, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 subtracts the number of presents consumed from the stored points in the point management DB, and registers the exchange target history as exchange history information. In addition, regarding an exchange target that needs to be shipped, an operator or the like is made to arrange shipping. The destination information can be arbitrarily registered in the customer DB. When the destination information is registered in the customer DB, the registered destination information is displayed by default from the next time.

  In addition, when the transfer user TU operates the exchange selection button 213f displayed as “Challenge to present double game”, the game exchange screen 241 is displayed on the display unit 34 of the transfer terminal 3. On the game exchange screen 241, an exchange condition display field 242, an exchange decision button 244, and a return button 245 for returning to the previous screen are displayed. “Present doubling game” is a game in which a game is performed using a predetermined present and a predetermined number of presents are given or the number of presents held is doubled according to the result.

  When the user operates the exchange determination button 244, the game is started under the displayed conditions, and a game screen (not shown) is displayed on the display unit 34 of the transfer terminal 3. In addition, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 subtracts the number of presents consumed from the retained points in the game exchange screen 241 point management DB, and registers the exchange target history as exchange history information. And a predetermined present is given according to the result of the game.

  On the other hand, when the transfer user TU operates the exchange selection button 213b on which “Exchange with Ti point” is displayed, the control unit 41 of the server device 4 subtracts the number of presents present from the stored points in the point management DB and exchanges them. Register the replacement history as replacement history information. Furthermore, the control unit 41 executes processing for requesting the management company that manages the Ti points to issue Ti points. As a result, Ti points corresponding to the number of presents exchanged for the assigned user TU are given.

  In addition, when the transfer user TU operates the Thanks card creation button 214 in which “Create Thanks card” is operated on the exchange selection screen 211 (FIG. 11), a Thanks card creation screen (not shown) is displayed. As with the creation of a message card, the transfer user UG can easily create a Thanks card by selecting the type of image, inputting the message and address, and sending the URL by e-mail or SNS message. it can. The created Thanks card TC (Thanks card) image information is stored with a card ID, as is the case with the message card, and the URL, the assigning user TU, and the giver user GU issued in response to the TC image information. The customer ID is registered in the card DB.

  Furthermore, when the transfer user TU operates the exchange setting registration button 215 on the exchange selection screen 211 (FIG. 11), an exchange setting screen (not shown) is displayed. On the exchange setting screen, the answer to the questionnaire, whether or not to display the advertisement, age and gender are arbitrarily set. As described above, when an object to be exchanged is an article, burden costs such as a shipping fee and an office fee are generated. By answering the questionnaire or viewing the advertisement, the burden cost can be reduced or eliminated.

  For example, when the exchange determination button 234 is operated on the gift card exchange screen 231 (FIG. 12), an advertisement video or a questionnaire response screen is displayed. Since the predetermined number of presents is reduced by one advertisement viewing or questionnaire response, it is possible to repeatedly view the advertisement or answer the questionnaire until the burden cost is eliminated, or to stop the advertisement on the way.

  Next, the gift giving / receiving process described above will be described with reference to the system flowchart of FIG. In FIG. 14, the above-described embodiment is shown in a system flowchart. In practice, each step is complicatedly mixed due to the presence of a plurality of user terminals (the gifter terminal 2 and the transfer terminal 3). become.

  In step SP201, the gift giver terminal 2 requests the server device 4 to transfer a present as a gift purchase right (abbreviated as purchase right in the figure) in accordance with the operation of the giver user GU.

  In step SP401, when the server device 4 registers the gift history information as a transfer request in the point management DB, the process proceeds to the next step SP402. In step SP402, the server device 4 generates image information of the message card to be transmitted to the transfer user TU, moves to step SP403, and gives the transfer address information (abbreviated as address information in the figure) of the generated image information to the giver terminal 2. Send to.

  In step SP202, the gift giver terminal 2 transmits address information to the transfer user TU by various methods such as mail, SNS, printing and handing. As a result, the address information is transmitted to the transfer terminal 3.

  In step SP301, the transfer terminal 3 accesses the transmitted address information. In step SP404, the server apparatus 4 supplies the image information indicated by the designated address information to the transfer terminal 3. As a result, the transfer image (message transfer screen 201) is displayed on the transfer terminal in step SP302.

  In step SP303, when the transfer terminal 3 confirms the gift purchase right transfer in response to the operation of the transfer user TU, the transfer terminal 3 transmits a message to that effect to the server device 4. In step SP405, the server apparatus 4 officially shifts the gift purchase right in the point management DB from the giver user GU to the transfer user TU. In step SP406, the server device 4 notifies the gift giver terminal 2 that the gift purchase right has been transferred.

  Note that not all the steps in the system flowchart are essential. For example, steps SP401 and SP406 can be omitted.

  As described above, in the gift delivery system 1, gift purchase rights can be exchanged between users with a simple operation.

The gift purchase right can be transferred to a second transfer user in response to an operation input of the transfer user.

  Thereby, exchange of gift purchase rights is frequently performed between users, and the gift exchange system can be used as one of communication tools.

  In the above-described embodiment, a case has been described in which the present transferred by the transfer user TU is exchanged for a gift. The present invention is not limited to this, and the possessed gift can be transferred to another user. In the case of giving a present of an amount greater than the retained present, it is possible to use the retained present and settle only the remaining amount. Thereby, it becomes possible to use the present like a virtual currency. On the other hand, it is possible to set a restriction that a gift is always purchased when giving.

  In addition, an expiration date may be provided between the time when a possessed present is acquired (the presenter user GU purchases a present or sends a URL to a transferee user) and the present is used. In this case, if a present is not received even if it is a predetermined period before the expiration date (for example, 3 months, 1 month, 1 week, etc.), or if a present is not received even though the predetermined period has passed It is possible to send a mail to the giver GU user one or more times so as to prompt the contact to the transfer user TU. If the present is not received even after the expiration date, a process of returning the present to the presenter user GU (returning to the present present of the presenter user GU) can be executed, or the retained present can be extinguished. In addition, when the transfer user TU performs the receiving operation but does not use it, it is possible to send an e-mail to the transfer user TU and prompt the user to use the present.

  Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, a predetermined point is used as a fee when exchanging the presents. The present invention is not limited to this, and it is also possible to make the point value at the time of purchase different from the point value at the time of exchange, such as 1 present = 0.8 yen conversion. In addition, a fee for exchanging is not essential.

  Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, SMS authentication is performed as identity verification. However, identity verification may be performed by sending a URL, a password, or the like to an e-mail address, for example. Also, identity verification is not always necessary.

  In the embodiment described above, the design of the message card is changed in accordance with the amount of money. For example, the same design (or a design selected from a plurality) may be used regardless of the amount of money. In this case, only the amount is entered in the amount column. Thereby, the symbol according to the user's preference can be selected regardless of the amount of money. It is also possible to transmit a moving image as a transfer image (message card image) or a reply image (Thanks card image). In addition to images taken by default, you can also update your own moving images as message videos. It is also possible to send a moving image in combination with a still image selected by default.

  Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the same thing as the account registration is displayed in the sender email address by default, but the email address set by default in the email software is displayed in the sender email address. May be. In addition, mail can be transmitted using the mail transmission function of the server without using mail software.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the URL is displayed has been described. The present invention is not limited to this, and for example, embedded information such as a two-dimensional barcode embedded with a URL can be displayed. When the displayed embedded information is read by the transfer terminal 3 such as a smartphone, exchange on the spot is also possible. Also, the displayed embedded information can be printed and handed or mailed.

  Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, a state in which a gift to be exchanged is provisionally given (temporary gift point) at the stage where any of mail transmission, SNS message transmission, or URL copying is performed. The case where it was made to handle was described. The present invention is not limited to this. For example, the present invention may be shifted to a state in which a gift amount is designated, a message image is temporarily given at a selection timing, or the like. Further, when a gift purchase right (present) is purchased, the present user need not be associated with the presenter user GU, and may be attached to the message card. For example, a present is linked to a message card simultaneously with settlement. When the transfer user TU performs a receiving operation, a present can be added to the input transfer user TU. Thereby, the present is added to the transfer user TU without being owned by the presenter user GU. In this case, the present purchased by the giver user GU is registered in the DB that manages the message card, and the present is transferred when the transfer user TU performs a receiving process.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the case has been described in which the unacknowledged processing in the first to third stages is performed when the transfer user TU does not receive a present. The present invention is not limited to this, and non-reception handling processing is not essential. Further, the first stage to the third stage may be appropriately combined or only a part may be performed.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, although not specifically described, after operating the exchange determination button 234 (FIG. 12), a game or a lottery that can reduce burden costs may be automatically performed. Thereby, the pleasure of gift exchange can be increased for the user.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the gifter terminal 2 starts the mail program or the SNS program and transmits the URL to the transfer terminal 3 has been described. The present invention is not limited to this, but the server device 4 obtains transmission destination information from the e-mail address or SNS account, or is input by the giver user, and the server device 4 mediates the URL to the transfer terminal 3. You may send it. In this case, it is preferable that transmission destination information is registered in the server device 4. In this case, when the transfer user receives the present, the server device 4 confirms the account information of the transfer user, and if the destination information is not registered in the transfer user account information, the server apparatus 4 performs identity verification by SMS authentication. It is preferable. Thereby, impersonation can be effectively prevented.

  The present invention can be applied to a gift delivery system that can easily give and receive gifts using, for example, a smartphone or a personal computer.
