<Processing of First Embodiment>
Processing of the communication system 1 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a processing sequence of the communication system 1 according to the first embodiment. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of coupon information stored in the coupon information storage unit 3151 according to the first embodiment.

In step S1, the server 110 delivers coupon information to the terminal 120. The server 110 may manage the coupon information distributed to the user of each terminal 120 in the coupon information storage unit 3151. In the example of FIG. 5, the coupon information storage unit 3151 includes a timer activation date and time, an expiration date, a state, and display information in association with the user ID and the coupon ID. The coupon ID is identification information of the coupon. The timer start date and time is the date and time when the timer that counts down to the expiration date of the coupon is activated. The expiration date is, for example, a period from the activation of the timer until the coupon is invalidated. The expiration date may be set in advance when the coupon is distributed. The state is the state of the coupon. The state is, for example, “displaying”, which is a state in which the coupon is displayed on the terminal 120, “invalid” that is a state in which the coupon is invalid, or “use” in which the user of the terminal 120 can display the coupon. Possible” and the like may be included. The display information is information on the coupon displayed on the terminal 120. The display information may be preset when the coupon is distributed. Note that the terminal 120 may store coupon information for the user of the terminal 120.

In the example of FIG. 5, the coupon A distributed to the user A is displayed on the terminal 120 on “2019/1/11 10:32.21”, and is valid for 20 minutes after being displayed, and the number string “12345” is displayed. Is displayed on the terminal 120 as coupon information.

Then, the terminal 120 receives the operation of using the coupon from the user (step S2). Subsequently, the terminal 120 activates (starts) a timer indicating the remaining time until the expiration date of the coupon and displays the coupon on the screen (step S3). This process will be described later. In addition, the terminal 120 may notify the server 110 of the user ID, the coupon ID of the displayed coupon, and the date and time (timer activation date and time) at which the coupon is displayed. Then, the server 110 records the received timer start date and time in the timer start date and time associated with the received user ID and coupon ID in the coupon information storage unit 3151, and updates the state to “displaying”. Good.

Note that the terminal 120 may determine (add) the privilege based on the direction in which the object is moved by the user when the timer is activated. In this case, the terminal 120 determines the discount amount or discount rate of the product, the amount of points to be returned to the user or the return rate, for example, based on the random number and the direction in which the user has moved the object, and uses the determined benefit. A corresponding coupon may be displayed.

Then, the POS terminal 140 receives an operation of inputting the coupon information displayed on the terminal 120 from a clerk or the like (step S4). Here, in the POS terminal 140, for example, a numeric string of coupons displayed on the terminal 120 may be input by a clerk. Alternatively, the POS terminal 140 may read the coupon barcode or the two-dimensional code displayed on the terminal 120 with a barcode reader or a camera, for example.

Then, the terminal 120 transmits the payment information to the POS terminal 140 in response to the user's operation (step S5). Here, the terminal 120 may transmit the payment information to the reader of the POS terminal 140 by near field communication such as NFC. Alternatively, the terminal 120 may display the two-dimensional code or the like on the screen and cause the POS terminal 140 to read the two-dimensional code by the above-mentioned “store-reading type code settlement” method or the like.

Then, the POS terminal 140 transmits a payment request for the price of the product to the server 110 (step S6).

Subsequently, the server 110 performs payment for the price of the product from the balance of the user of the terminal 120 (step S7). In addition, in the processing of step S6 and step S7, the POS terminal 140 and the server 110 give the user of the terminal 120 a privilege according to the coupon displayed on the terminal 120. For example, the POS terminal 140 may give a discount according to the coupon. Further, the server 110 may give points according to the coupon.

Subsequently, the terminal 120 detects that the timer has expired (step S8). Subsequently, the terminal 120 invalidates the displayed coupon (step S9). Here, for example, the terminal 120 may hide the coupon so that it cannot be displayed again. As a result, for example, even if the POS terminal 140 cannot notify the server 110 of the user ID of the terminal 120 that used the coupon and the coupon ID due to restrictions such as modification of the POS terminal 140, each user can use the coupon only once. Such coupons can be distributed to users. The processing of steps S8 and S9 may be performed by the server 110.

≪Coupon display processing≫
The coupon display processing of the terminal 120 according to the first embodiment in steps S2 and S3 of FIG. 4 will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8D. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of coupon display processing of the terminal 120 according to the first embodiment. 7A to 7E are diagrams illustrating an example of a display screen of the terminal 120 according to the first embodiment. 8A to 8D are diagrams illustrating an example of an opportunity to activate the coupon timer according to the first embodiment.

In step S101, the terminal 120 receives an operation of selecting a coupon to be used from the user. In the example of the coupon list screen 701 of FIG. 7A, the terminal 120 displays the coupon image 702, the image 703, the image 704, and the like. When the image 702 is pressed, the terminal 120 displays the coupon content display screen 711 of FIG. 7B. In the example of FIG. 7B, the terminal 120 displays a message 712 indicating that this coupon can be used only once, the content 713 of the coupon privilege, a “use coupon” button 714, and the like. When the "use coupon" button 714 is pressed, the process proceeds to the following.

Then, the terminal 120 displays the display screen of the object that covers the area in which the selected coupon is displayed (hereinafter, also referred to as “coupon area”, which is an example of “first area”) (step S102). In the example of the coupon display screen 721 of FIG. 7C, the terminal 120 superimposes and displays an object 723 having a blue sticker-like appearance on the coupon area 722.

Subsequently, the terminal 120 receives an operation of moving the object from the user (step S103). The operation of moving the object may be, for example, a swipe operation of sliding a fingertip while touching the screen, a flick operation of touching the screen with the fingertip to quickly pay, a shake operation of shaking the terminal 120, and the like.

Then, the terminal 120 moves and displays the object according to the user's operation (step S104). Here, the terminal 120 may move the object by an amount corresponding to the movement of the fingertip by the swipe operation. Also, the faster the flick operation is, the larger the object may be moved. The object may be moved to a larger extent as the number of flick operations or shake operations increases.

When the object 120 is moved, the terminal 120 includes one or more characters (numbers, characters, symbols, etc.) in an area such as the central portion of the barcode area that is not covered by the object. ), a barcode, and a part of the coupon information including at least one of the two-dimensional code may be displayed. In the example of FIG. 8A, the terminal 120 displays a part 7201 of the coupon number string 720 of “12345” in the area 731A of the coupon area 722 which is not covered by the object 723.

When the object is moved, the terminal 120 may display a predetermined message or image in an area such as the central portion of the barcode area that is not covered by the object.

Subsequently, the terminal 120 determines whether or not a predetermined area (an example of the “second area”) such as the central portion of the coupon area is displayed by a predetermined area or more due to the movement of the object (step S105). The predetermined region may be, for example, a rectangular or square region circumscribing one or more characters, a barcode, or a two-dimensional code of the coupon. Further, the predetermined area may be, for example, 1/5 of the predetermined area. When the predetermined area is displayed in the predetermined area or more (YES in step S105), the process proceeds to step S108 described later.

In the example of FIG. 8A, the terminal 120 moves the object 723 from the right to the left in the coupon area 722 and displays a partial area 731A of the predetermined area 731, and thus the process proceeds to step S108. Thereby, for example, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the countdown until the expiration date of the coupon is started due to an erroneous operation by the user. In addition, the predetermined area 731 may be an area including a central portion such as a two-dimensional code of a coupon. The number string 720 indicating the coupon is information displayed by the clerk for input to the POS terminal 140. Note that, in FIGS. 8A to 8D, the portion surrounded by the broken line indicates that it is not displayed on the screen of the terminal 120.

On the other hand, when at least a part of the predetermined area such as the central portion is not displayed (NO in step S105), the terminal 120 determines whether or not the coupon area is displayed by a predetermined area or more due to the movement of the object. (Step S106). Here, the terminal 120 may determine whether or not 1/3 or more of the coupon area is displayed, for example. In the example of FIG. 8B, in the terminal 120, the object 723 is moved leftward (from right to left) in the example of FIG. 8B, and the area of 1/3 or more of the coupon area 722 is displayed. move on. Thereby, for example, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the countdown until the expiration date of the coupon is started due to an erroneous operation by the user.

If it is displayed over the predetermined area (YES in step S106), the process proceeds to step S108 described later.

On the other hand, when the predetermined area or more is not displayed (NO in step S106), the terminal 120 performs the operation of moving the object from a plurality of directions so that the total area of the coupon areas displayed so far is equal to or larger than the predetermined threshold value. It is determined whether or not (step S107). Here, the terminal 120 performs, for example, an operation of moving the object in a first direction (for example, an upward direction, a downward direction, a left direction, or a right direction), and a part of the coupon area (an example of the “third area”). .) is displayed, another part of the coupon area (an example of the “fourth area”) is displayed by the operation of moving the object in the second direction opposite to the first direction. It is determined whether the total value of the area of the part and the area of the other part is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold. Here, in the terminal 120, for example, as shown in FIG. 8C, after the object 723 is moved to the left in the coupon area 722 and the area 732 having an area less than ⅓ of the coupon area 722 is displayed, as shown in FIG. 8D. When the object 723 is moved to the right and the area 733 having an area less than 1/3 of the coupon area 722 is displayed, the total area of the area 732 and the area 733 is a predetermined threshold value (for example, 1/of the coupon area 722). 2 area) or more.

Thereby, for example, after moving the object from right to left direction to display some coupon numbers or the like from the left end, move the object from left to right direction to obtain some coupon numbers or the like from the right end. If the user can guess the number or the like of the coupon by displaying it, it is possible to start the countdown until the expiration date of the coupon.

If it is not greater than or equal to the predetermined threshold value (NO in step S107), the process proceeds to step S103. On the other hand, when it is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold value (YES in step S107), the terminal 120 activates (starts) a timer indicating the remaining time until the expiration date of the coupon (step S108). Thereby, the countdown to the expiration date of the coupon is started. Here, the terminal 120 may store timer information in the storage unit 325 of the terminal 120.

Alternatively, the terminal 120 may transmit a user ID, a coupon ID, and a notification that the timer has started to the server 110, and acquire information on the remaining time until the expiration date of the coupon from the server 110. .. In this case, the server 110 stores, for example, the date and time when the notification that the timer is started is received in association with the user ID and the coupon ID, and the terminal 120 determines the elapsed time from the date and time to the current date and time. May be notified. Thereby, for example, even when the time set in the terminal 120 is changed by the user's setting operation or the like, the countdown can be appropriately performed.

Then, the terminal 120 removes the object and displays coupon information (step S107), and ends the process. The coupon information may include, for example, at least one of one or more characters, a barcode, and a two-dimensional code. In the example of the coupon display screen 721 of FIG. 7D, the terminal 120 removes the object 723 and displays the coupon number string 720A at the center of the coupon area 722. Also, the remaining time 724 until the expiration date of the coupon is displayed in association with the number string 720A of the coupon.

Further, in the example of the coupon display screen 721 of FIG. 7E, the terminal 120 removes the object 723 and displays the coupon two-dimensional code 720B in the center of the coupon area 722. Further, the remaining time 724 until the expiration date of the coupon is displayed in association with the two-dimensional code 720B of the coupon.

Hereinafter, an example of the process in the first embodiment will be described. The processing of the following embodiments can be executed in combination with the processing of other embodiments.

<<First Example>>
The first example is an example in which a plurality of coupons are used for one settlement at a store. According to the first embodiment, for example, when a plurality of coupons are used in one payment, the timer of each coupon can be appropriately activated.

<<Processing of First Example>>
When the user selects the first coupon and the second coupon that can be simultaneously used in one store, the terminal 120 displays both the coupon area of the first coupon and the coupon area of the second coupon. Then, when the object that covers the coupon area of the first coupon is moved by the user, the timer for the first coupon is activated by performing the above-described coupon display processing of FIG. 6 on the first coupon.

Then, when the object that covers the coupon area of the second coupon is moved to the user, the timer of the second coupon is activated by performing the above-described coupon display processing of FIG. Restart the coupon timer and reset the count to zero. With this, when only the first coupon is used, a predetermined expiration date can be set after the first coupon is displayed, and when the second coupon is also used, the remaining time until the expiration date of the first coupon Is reset, and the timer activation dates of the first coupon and the second coupon can be aligned.

<Second Embodiment>
According to the second embodiment of the present disclosure, in the above-mentioned “store-reading type code settlement” method or the like, when the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied is hidden due to an erroneous operation or the like, the coupon is applied to the two-dimensional code. In this embodiment, the dimension code and the like are displayed again.

According to the second embodiment, for example, the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied can be easily redisplayed. Further, for example, the user may display the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied once and then hide the two-dimensional code due to an erroneous operation or the like to newly display the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is not applied. Can be prevented. Further, for example, as a result, the load of the terminal 120 or the server 110 and the load of the network 130 between the terminal 120 and the server 110 can be reduced. The process of the second embodiment can be executed in combination with the process of the first embodiment.

<Functional configuration of the second embodiment>
The functional configurations of the server 110 and the terminal 120 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 9. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the server 110 and the terminal 120 according to the second embodiment.

The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the storage unit 315 of the server 110 has a code information storage unit 3152 that stores information such as a two-dimensional code.

<Process of Second Embodiment>
Processing of the communication system 1 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 to 12D. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a processing sequence of the communication system 1 according to the second embodiment. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of code information stored in the code information storage unit 3152 according to the second embodiment. 12A to 12D are diagrams illustrating an example of a display screen of the terminal 120 according to the second embodiment.

In step S201, the server 110 delivers coupon information to the terminal 120. This process may be similar to the process of step S1 of FIG.

Then, the terminal 120 receives a code display operation for displaying a two-dimensional code for payment from the user (step S202). Here, the terminal 120 displays, for example, the menu screen 1201 of FIG. 12A. In the example of FIG. 12A, the terminal 120 displays the balance 1202 of the user, the “code payment” button 1203, and the like, and when the “code payment” button 1203 is pressed, the code display operation is accepted from the user. Further, the terminal 120 may accept the code display operation from the user by, for example, pressing a shortcut icon or the like set on the home screen displayed by the OS.

Note that the terminal 120 performs user authentication using, for example, passcode authentication, fingerprint authentication, face authentication provided by the OS of the terminal 120, and executes the subsequent processing only when the user authentication is successful, and performs user authentication. If the step fails, an error may be displayed and the subsequent processing may not be performed.

Then, the terminal 120 transmits a code acquisition request including the user ID to the server 110 (step S203).

Subsequently, the server 110 determines a code ID (QRID) that is identification information such as a two-dimensional code, and transmits the determined code ID to the terminal 120 (step S204). Here, the server 110 may determine the code ID based on, for example, the user ID of the terminal 120, the current date and time, a random number, and the like. Then, the server 110 stores the user ID and the expiration date of the code ID in the code information storage unit 3152 in association with the determined code ID. The two-dimensional code and the like may be generated by the terminal 120 and transmitted to the server 110.

(Code information storage unit 3152)
In the example of FIG. 10, the code information storage unit 3152 stores the user ID and the expiration date of the code ID in association with the code ID. The expiration date of the code ID is the expiration date when payment using a two-dimensional code or the like displayed based on the code ID is possible. In the server 110, for example, the expiration date of the code ID may be set within a predetermined period (for example, 5 minutes) after the code ID is determined. By setting the expiration date in the code ID, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the two-dimensional code or the like displayed based on the code ID is photographed and illegally used.

Then, the terminal 120 displays a two-dimensional code or the like including the received code ID information on the screen (step S205). As a result, it is possible to perform payment by the above-mentioned "store-reading type code payment" method or the like. Alternatively, the terminal 120 may receive an image such as a two-dimensional code including the information of the code ID instead of the code ID from the server 110 and display the received image such as the two-dimensional code.

In the example of the code display screen 1211 of FIG. 12B, the terminal 120 displays a two-dimensional code 1212, an expiration date 1213 of the two-dimensional code 1212, and a “select coupon” button 1214. The example of FIG. 12B shows that the expiration date 1213 is 5 minutes remaining. In addition, when the expiration date 1213 has passed, the terminal 120 may perform the user authentication again, and if the user authentication is successful, the terminal 120 may update the two-dimensional code 1212 by executing the processes of steps S203 to S205. In addition, the terminal 120 may hide the two-dimensional code 1212 when the authentication fails.

Then, the terminal 120 receives from the user an operation of using a coupon that allows the user to obtain a privilege when the user purchases a product at the store (step S206). Here, for example, when the “select coupon” button 1214 on the code display screen 1211 in FIG. 12B is pressed, the terminal 120 displays the coupon list screen 1221 in FIG. 12C. In the example of FIG. 12C, the terminal 120 displays the coupon 1222, the explanatory text 1222A of the coupon 1222, the coupon 1223, and the like, and an operation of selecting the coupon to be used by pressing the area of the coupon 1222 or the coupon 1223. Is accepted from the user.

It should be noted that the terminal 120 may delete the once-selected coupon from the coupon list screen 1221 and disable the selection operation again. In this case, for example, when the coupon 1222 is selected on the coupon list screen 1221 of FIG. 12C, the terminal 120 thereafter deletes the display of the coupon 1222 from the coupon list screen 1221 of FIG. 12C and disables selection. Good. As a result, for example, even if the POS terminal 140 cannot notify the server 110 of the user ID of the terminal 120 that used the coupon and the coupon ID due to restrictions such as modification of the POS terminal 140, each user can use the coupon only once. Such coupons can be distributed to users.

Then, the terminal 120 displays a two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied (an example of “first code”) on the screen (step S207). Here, the terminal 120 may generate and display a two-dimensional code including the coupon ID information and the received code ID information as the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied. The display mode of the two-dimensional code or the like may be different before and after the coupon is applied. Thereby, the user can visually recognize whether the coupon is applied to the two-dimensional code or the like. In this case, the terminal 120 may display, for example, a two-dimensional code or the like (design QR code) on which a logo or an illustration relating to the coupon is arranged in the central portion of the two-dimensional code or the like. For example, an image, an illustration, an icon of a product to which the coupon is applied, or a logo of a business operator of a store using the coupon may be arranged and displayed in the central portion or the like.

In the example of the code display screen 1211 of FIG. 12D, the terminal 120 displays the two-dimensional code 1212A to which the coupon is applied, the expiration date 1213 of the two-dimensional code 1212A, the expiration date 1215 of the coupon, and the “remove coupon” button 1216. ing. In the example of FIG. 12D, it is shown that the expiration date 1213 of the two-dimensional code 1212A is 4 minutes and 21 seconds remaining, and the expiration date 1215 of the coupon is 5 minutes remaining. The expiration date 1213 of the two-dimensional code 1212A may be aligned with the expiration date 1215 of the coupon when the coupon is applied.

When the expiration date 1215 of the coupon has passed, the terminal 120 may hide the two-dimensional code 1212A so that it cannot be displayed again. As a result, for example, even if the POS terminal 140 cannot notify the server 110 of the user ID of the terminal 120 that used the coupon and the coupon ID due to restrictions such as modification of the POS terminal 140, each user can use the coupon only once. Such coupons can be distributed to users.

Below, the case where the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied is hidden due to an erroneous operation or a defect will be described. If there is no erroneous operation, the process proceeds to step S211 described later. The terminal 120 hides the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied (step S208). Here, the terminal 120 abnormally terminates the application program displaying the two-dimensional code or the like due to a problem (bug or the like) of the OS (Operating System) of the terminal 120 or the application program that displays the two-dimensional code or the like. By forcibly ending), the 2D code etc. is hidden. In addition, the terminal 120 causes the two-dimensional code and the like to be hidden by the user's erroneous operation of closing the display screen of the two-dimensional code and the like. In addition, the terminal 120 hides the two-dimensional code or the like when the user authentication fails after the expiration date of the two-dimensional code or the like has passed.

Subsequently, the terminal 120 accepts a code display operation for displaying a two-dimensional code for payment and the like from the user (step S209). Here, the terminal 120 accepts the same operation as in step S202.

Subsequently, the terminal 120 determines whether or not a predetermined condition for redisplaying the two-dimensional code to which the coupon has been applied is satisfied (step S210). This process will be described later.

If the predetermined condition is satisfied (YES in step S210), the terminal 120 redisplays the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied, which is displayed in the process of step S206 (step S211). Here, the terminal 120 may not extend the expiration date of the coupon applied to the two-dimensional code or the like. In this case, in the terminal 120, for example, the expiration date of the coupon is within 5 minutes from the display start time of the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied, and the elapsed time from the start of the expiration date to the present time. When it is 5 minutes or more, the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied is invalidated.

Alternatively, the terminal 120 may extend the expiration date of the coupon applied to the two-dimensional code or the like according to the period during which the two-dimensional code or the like is hidden. In this case, the terminal 120 stops the timer that counts down until the expiration date of the coupon and displays the two-dimensional code again while the two-dimensional code is hidden, for example. The timer may be restarted. Thereby, for example, when the expiration date 1215 of the coupon displayed in association with the two-dimensional code 1212A to which the coupon is applied is displayed as 5 minutes remaining on the code display screen 1211 of FIG. 12D, the code is displayed. When the screen 1211 is hidden and the code display screen 1211 of FIG. 12D is displayed again after 3 minutes have passed, the expiration date 1215 of the coupon is counted down to 5 minutes instead of 2 minutes (5 minutes to 3 minutes) remaining. Is resumed. Thereby, for example, even when it is necessary to perform a relatively time-consuming process such as restarting the OS, the remaining time until the expiration date of the coupon can be prevented from being consumed.

If the predetermined condition is not satisfied (NO in step S210), the terminal 120 performs the same process as steps S202 to S205 to display a new two-dimensional code to which the coupon is not applied on the screen. Let

Subsequently, the POS terminal 140 accepts an operation of reading a two-dimensional code or the like from a store clerk or the like (step S212), photographs the two-dimensional code or the like displayed on the terminal 120 with a camera in response to the operation, and then the two-dimensional code is displayed. The coupon ID and the code ID included in the code or the like are read (step S213).

Subsequently, the POS terminal 140 gives a privilege according to the read coupon ID, discounts the price, etc. (step S214), and transmits a request for settlement of the price of the discounted product to the server 110 (step S215). .. Here, the settlement request includes the read code ID, the price of the discounted product, and the ID of the business operator of the POS terminal 140.

Subsequently, the server 110 performs settlement of the price of the discounted product from the balance of the user of the terminal 120 (step S216). Here, the server 110 acquires the user ID associated with the received code ID, and subtracts the amount of the price from the balance associated with the user ID. Further, the amount of the price is added to the balance associated with the received ID of the business operator.

<Re-display condition determination processing>
An example of the determination process of step S210 of FIG. 9 as to whether or not a predetermined condition for redisplaying the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied is satisfied will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing an example of a determination process of whether or not to redisplay the two-dimensional code to which the coupon according to the second embodiment is applied.

In step S301, the terminal 120 determines whether or not the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied is hidden due to a malfunction of the OS of the terminal 120 or an application program for displaying the two-dimensional code or the like. Here, if the OS or the application program ends abnormally while the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied is displayed, the terminal 120 determines that the terminal 120 is hidden due to a malfunction.

Here, the terminal 120 refers to, for example, a log (crash log, system log, diagnostic data) provided by the OS of the terminal 120, or a log recorded by the application program. Then, for example, after a log indicating that the two-dimensional code or the like has been displayed is recorded within a predetermined time (for example, within three minutes), a log indicating that the two-dimensional code or the like has been hidden is displayed. If the information indicating that the OS or the application program is abnormally terminated is recorded before, it may be determined that a failure has occurred while the two-dimensional code or the like is displayed. On the other hand, if not, it may be determined that no trouble has occurred during the display of the two-dimensional code or the like.

If it is hidden due to a defect (YES in step S301), the process proceeds to step S306 described later.

If not hidden due to a defect (NO in step S301), the terminal 120 does not display the two-dimensional code to which the coupon has been applied, and then within the first predetermined time (for example, within 10 seconds). It is determined whether or not a code display operation for displaying a two-dimensional code for payment has been received from the user (step S302).

If it is received within the first predetermined time (YES in step S302), the process proceeds to step S306 described later. This is because if the user performs an operation such as closing the display screen of the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied, etc., and then immediately displaying the two-dimensional code for payment, etc., the display screen is closed due to an erroneous operation. This is because there is a possibility that

If not received within the first predetermined time (NO in step S302), after the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied is hidden, from the position of the terminal 120 when the two-dimensional code or the like is displayed It is determined whether or not a code display operation for displaying a two-dimensional code or the like for settlement within a predetermined range (for example, within a radius of 100 m) has been received from the user (step S303).

When it is received within the predetermined range (YES in step S303), the process proceeds to step S306 described later. This is an erroneous operation when the user displays the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied, etc., and the position after which the operation to display the two-dimensional code for payment is performed is the same. This is because there is a possibility that the

If not received within the predetermined range (NO in step S303), the terminal 120 can receive the radio wave when the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied is hidden and then the two-dimensional code is displayed. It is determined whether the communication device and the communication device capable of receiving the radio wave by the terminal 120 when the code display operation for displaying the two-dimensional code for payment and the like is received from the user (step S304). Here, the terminal 120 can receive the radio wave when, for example, the operation of using the coupon is accepted in step S206 of FIG. 9 and the code display operation is accepted in step S209 of FIG. It may be determined whether the communication devices match. If the SSID (Service Set Identifier), which is the identification information of the wireless LAN access point that allows the terminal 120 to receive radio waves, is the same at both times, the terminal 120 determines that the communication devices that can receive the radio waves are the same. Good. Further, the terminal 120 may determine that the communication devices capable of receiving the radio waves match when the beacons and the like, which are short-range wireless communication devices such as BLE capable of receiving the radio waves, match at both times. Further, the terminal 120 may determine that the communication devices capable of receiving the radio waves match when the identification information (Cell ID) of the base station of the mobile phone network that the terminal 120 can receive the radio waves at the both times.

When the communication devices capable of receiving the radio waves match (YES in step S304), the process proceeds to step S306 described later. This is because the communication device at the position when the user displays the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied is the same as the communication device at the position after which the operation to display the two-dimensional code for payment is performed. This is because, in some cases, it is possible that the door may have been closed due to an erroneous operation.

If the communication devices capable of receiving radio waves do not match (NO in step S304), the terminal 120 determines that the user has not passed the expiration date of the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon has been applied (when updating the two-dimensional code or the like). It is determined whether the two-dimensional code or the like to which the coupon is applied is hidden due to the authentication failure (step S305). Note that the terminal 120 performs user authentication again after the expiration date of the code ID received from the server 110, and if the user authentication succeeds again, acquires the code ID again from the server 110 and applies the coupon. Update the generated two-dimensional code etc. On the other hand, if the user authentication fails again, for example, by returning the display screen from the code display screen 1211 in FIG. 12D to the menu screen 1201 in FIG. 12A, the two-dimensional code to which the coupon is applied is hidden. To do. Then, when the code display operation is performed by the user on the menu screen 1201 of FIG. 12A and the subsequent user authentication is successful, the following process is executed.

If it is hidden due to a failure in user authentication when the expiration date has passed (YES in step S305), it means that the predetermined condition for redisplaying the two-dimensional code to which the coupon has been applied is satisfied. The determination is made (step S306), and the process ends. This is because if the user authentication fails when updating the two-dimensional code and the code display operation is normally performed after that, it is considered that the user authentication may have failed due to an erroneous operation or the like. ..

If not hidden due to user authentication failure when the expiration date has passed (NO in step S305), the predetermined condition for redisplaying the two-dimensional code to which the coupon has been applied is not satisfied. (Step S307), and the process ends.
