Description

The present invention relates to a regional revitalization system, and more specifically, issues a regional currency as a reward to a donor and makes the local currency available at various stores and facilities in the target region to activate the region. Regarding the regional revitalization system that can be promoted.

In recent years, donations have been paid to support local governments (municipalities) voluntarily selected by donors, and since these donations are subject to the donor's income deduction, it is as if the tax was paid to the local government selected by the donor. A system called "hometown tax payment" that can be seen is widespread. Local governments that want to collect donations widely using this system prepare multiple types of special products (agricultural products, marine products) according to the donation amount, and the donor desires from these multiple types of special products. We send special products as rewards.

Furthermore, on the Internet, the dedicated sites "Satoful (registered trademark)" and "FuruNavi (registered trademark)" for "hometown tax payment" are well known. Such a dedicated site introduces the mechanism of the "hometown tax payment" system and introduces the gifts of multiple contracted local governments so that donors can easily use the "hometown tax payment" system. I have to.

The above-mentioned "hometown tax payment" system is highly effective in local governments whose main profits are agriculture and fisheries, because they can effectively utilize local specialties as rewards. However, in local governments whose main profit is the tourism industry, donations from "hometown tax payment" are effective, but in order to maintain and develop the tourism industry, it is important to attract customers first. In particular, in recent years, natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and landslides have frequently occurred in Japan. Attracting customers may not recover as before due to damage.

Therefore, when operating the above-mentioned "Furusato Tax Payment" dedicated site, instead of providing goods as a reward for donations from donors, we issue local currencies that can only be used by the target municipality to donors. However, by having donors visit local governments and use this local currency, we will improve the number of customers to local governments (especially local governments that mainly make a profit from the tourism industry) and revitalize local governments. Can be considered.

As a system in which such local governments use local currency, a part of the pension that the national government or an authorized institution should pay to local governments such as prefectures or municipalities to pensioners residing in the local government. Or entrust payment in place of the local currency that is valid only in the area concerned. The entrusted local government issues local currency for each pensioner via the server computer 1 of the local government. A local currency issuance and utilization system is disclosed in which each beneficiary receives a local currency with an IC card or a smartphone (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

In addition, local currency is issued to the elderly, issuance is performed for patrols in the area, the form of issuance is the form of value information such as blockchain, and the issuance method is the local government that has the authority to issue local currency. A local currency issuing system for transmitting from a server computer of the above to a smartphone owned by an elderly person is disclosed (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

JP-A-2018-195224 JP-A-2019-003529

The system disclosed in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 issues pensions, etc. to the beneficiary's mobile terminal as a local currency that is valid only in the region, and the local economy is enriched by using this local currency. It is a local currency issuance and utilization system and a local currency issuance system for.

However, as in the present invention, the "hometown tax payment" system issues local currency as a reward to donors residing outside the local government, and improves the number of customers from outside to local governments where the local currency can be used. It is not intended to be.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention issues a local currency that can be used by the local government of the donation destination as a reward for the donation provided by the donor, and the donor who receives the local currency is the donation destination. By visiting local governments, the purpose is to provide a regional revitalization system that can revitalize the local governments to which they donate.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention presents a system server that issues local currencies that can be used by a plurality of local governments that accept donations from donors, a donor terminal owned by the donor, and the local government. Terminals for store facilities rented to various stores and facilities that can use local currency, local government terminals owned by the local government, and travel agency terminals owned by travel agencies are mutually connected via a public communication network. It is a communicably connected local activation system, and when the donor selects the local currency as a reward item for donations, the system server uses the local currency as a reward item for the donor. Local currency issuing means to issue, the means to settle the local currency used in various stores and facilities of the local government, and the store facility guide that guides the donors to the stores and facilities that can use the local currency in the local government. It was a regional revitalization system characterized by having means and.

Further, the system server is characterized by being provided with a transportation expense settlement means that can use the local currency owned by the donor as transportation expenses for moving to the local government.

In addition, the system server guides the donors who own the local currency to hold festivals and various events held in the local currency as support for attracting customers to the local governments that can use the local currency. It is characterized by having means.

According to the present invention, as a reward for a donation from a donor to a local government, a local currency that can be used by the local government of the donation destination is issued, and the donor who receives the local currency visits the local government of the donation destination. Therefore, it is possible to revitalize the local government to which the donation is made.

It controls communication with a plurality of local government terminals 40 and a plurality of travel agency terminals 50. That is, although the details will be described later, the external communication I / F control unit 14 issues the local currency to the donor terminal 20 of the donor 200 or the area used by the donor 200 based on the instruction of the control unit 13. Settle the currency.

[3. Flow of local currency of regional revitalization system]
Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 3, an outline of the flow of the local currency of the regional revitalization system 1 of the present embodiment will be described. The local government 400 in the present embodiment refers to a municipality (so-called local government) of each prefecture, but may be a prefecture unit.

First, the donor 200 decides the local government 400 to perform "hometown tax payment". Then, the donor 200 makes a donation of a predetermined amount to the local government 400 by accessing the local government terminal 40 of the selected local government 400, and also selects a donation reward item (in this case, the local currency) (in this case, the local currency). In the figure (1)). In addition, in this embodiment, a special product of the ordinary local government 400 can be selected as a reward item, and it is possible to select a local currency as one of the options. In addition, the decision of the local government 400 to which the donation is made and the selection of the gifts to be returned may be made on the dedicated site set up on the system server 10.

The local government 400 that received the donation transmits the donation information such as the donation amount of the donor 200 and the selection of the local currency as a reward item to the system server 10 of the system operator 100 via the local government terminal 40 (in the figure). (2)). The system server 10 of the system operator 100 that has received the donation information registers the received donation information and issues a predetermined amount of local currency to the donor terminal 20 of the donor 200 via the system server 10 (that is,). Send) ((3) in the figure). Here, the predetermined amount of the local currency may be the same amount as the amount of the ordinary reward item, or may give a sense of value as a high price. That is, since the local currency of the present embodiment can be used by the donation destination local government 400, the donor 200 needs to move to the donation destination local government in order to use the local currency. Then, since there is a high possibility that the donor 200 will use an amount equal to or greater than the predetermined amount of the local currency at the destination, by making the predetermined amount of the local currency higher than the amount of the ordinary reward item, the amount of the local currency will be further increased to 400. It is possible to improve the number of customers.

The donor 200 who received the local currency moves to the local government 400 to which the donation is made. Then, the local currency is used at a plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400 affiliated with the regional revitalization system 1 ((4) in the figure) to receive products and services (services) (in the figure ((4)). 5)). The use of this local currency is executed by the donor terminal 20 of the donor 200 and the store facility terminal 30 previously lent from the system operator 100 to a plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400.

A plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government request the system operator 100 to settle the local currency ((6) in the figure). The system operator 100 clears the local currency used (that is, paid) by the donor 200 ((7) in the figure). The request for settlement of the local currency is executed by the system server 10 of the system operator 100 and the store facility terminals 30 of the plurality of stores / facilities 300. In addition, the settlement of the local currency is performed by, for example, the system operator 100 transferring the total amount of the local currency for a predetermined period (monthly or weekly) to the accounts opened by the plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400. Will be executed. The settlement of the local currency (so-called settlement) can be performed in various forms such as bill transactions (bills payable) if there is an agreement between those skilled in the art (system operator 100 and store / facility 300).

In addition, the system operator 100 supports attracting customers to a plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400 (dotted line in the figure). As this support for attracting customers, the contents of products and services (especially advantageous products and high-value-added services) of a plurality of stores and facilities 300 of the local government 400 are provided by donors who have the local currency of the local government 400. The system server 10 guides the 200 donor terminals 20 to the donor terminal 20 of the donor 200 who owns the local currency to guide the holding of festivals and various events held in the local government 400 from the system server 10. It is executed by guiding. The various guides transmitted from the system server 10 for supporting the attracting of customers to the donor terminal 20 may be, for example, sent by e-mail or the like, or the donor terminals 20 of a plurality of donors 200 and the system business. An SNS (Social Networking Service) may be configured with the system server 10 of the person 100, and Twitter (registered trademark), Facebook (registered trademark), or the like using this SNS may be used. Such customer attraction support functions as a customer attraction support means in the present embodiment.

In addition, on the dedicated site opened by the system server 10, the contents of a plurality of stores / facilities 300 that can use local currency in the local government 400 and the products and services handled by the stores / facilities 300 are disclosed. It can be freely viewed on the donor terminal 20 of the donor 200. Furthermore, on the dedicated site opened on the system server 10, the movement route to a plurality of stores / facilities 300 that can use the local currency in the local government 400 is disclosed to the donor 200 who desires to travel to the local government 400. You can also guide. The disclosure of a plurality of stores / facilities 300 that can use local currencies on the dedicated site of the system server 10 functions as a store facility guidance means in the present embodiment.

In addition, the regional revitalization system 1 of the present embodiment has a business tie-up with a travel agency 500 that can use local currency, and transports the local currency owned by the donor 200 to the local government 400 of the donation destination. It is equipped with a means of reimbursement of transportation expenses that can be used as expenses. As a result, the donor 200 can use the local currency as transportation expenses for moving to the local government 400 to which the donation is made. Therefore, for example, the travel agency 500 makes a donation to the same local government 400 and possesses the same local currency. By planning and providing a travel plan (for example, a bus tour) to the local government 400 to a plurality of donors 200, transportation costs to the local government 400 can be kept low, and efficient donors can be provided. 200 trips can be realized.

[4. Outline of processing of regional revitalization system]
Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 4, an outline of a series of processes of the regional activation system 1 executed by the system server 10, the donor terminal 20, and the store facility terminal 30 of the regional activation system 1 of the present embodiment will be described. ..

First, the system server 10 receives donation information such as the donation amount and the selection of the local currency as a reward item from the local government terminal 40 of the local government 400 that received the donation (step S1). Then, the system server 10 stores this donation information in the storage unit 11 as donor information, and transmits a predetermined amount of local currency according to the donation amount to the donor terminal 20 of the donor 200 (step S2).

The donor 200 using the regional revitalization system 1 of the present embodiment is newly registered in the system server 10 by the donation information transmitted from the local government terminal 40 of the local government 400, except for the already registered donor 200, and is a user. It is managed by ID etc. Therefore, the donation information also includes information for each donor 200 (personal information such as address, name, gender, age, and email address of the donor terminal 20). In addition, the donor 200 also stores the local currency information issued for each donor 200 (including the total amount of the local currency for each donor 200 and the remaining amount used) in the storage unit 11 of the system server 10. .. In some cases, the donor 200 makes a donation to a plurality of local governments 400 and owns a local currency that can be used for each of the plurality of local governments 400. Therefore, the system server 10 manages the total amount of the local currency owned by the donor 200 and the balance of the used amount as the local currency information for each donor 200 and for each local government 400.

In this embodiment, the already registered donor 200 makes a donation to an arbitrary local government 400 via the dedicated site established on the system server 10 of the regional revitalization system 1, and as a reward. You can also choose a local currency.

The donor terminal 20 of the donor 200 receives the local currency transmitted from the system server 10 (step S3), and stores this in the donor terminal 20 (step S4). The total amount of local currency stored in the donor terminal 20 is the local currency information issued for each donor 200 stored in the storage unit 11 of the system server 10 (the total amount of local currency for each donor 200). It is the same amount as the remaining amount used). After this, the donor 200 moves (travels) to the municipality 400 where the local currency can be used.

The donor 200 selects the products and services of a plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400 that can use the local currency affiliated with the local currency in the local government 400 to which the donation is made, and pays in the local currency ( Step S5). This payment is made between the store facility terminal 30 lent to the store / facility 300 and the donor terminal 20 of the donor 200, for example, well-known short-range wireless communication (Bluetooth (registered trademark) or Wi-Hi (registered trademark)). It is done using registered trademarks) etc.). Therefore, as the donor terminal 20 and the store facility terminal 30, a model having a short-range wireless communication function is preferably used. By doing so, it is possible to easily receive goods and services in the local currency held by the donor 200 at a plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400 that can use the local currency.

Further, when the system server 10 transmits the local currency to the donor terminal 20, a dedicated local currency settlement application is also downloaded to the donor terminal 20, and the local currency settlement application is used to transfer the local currency to the store facility terminal 30. It is desirable to realize the payment. In this way, by using the dedicated local currency settlement application, it is possible to improve the reliability of the local currency and prevent unauthorized falsification of the amount (numerical value) of the local currency.

Upon confirming that the payment of the local currency has been completed on the store facility terminal 30, the plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400 provide products and services (step S6). The donor 200 subtracts the paid local currency on the donor terminal 20 and confirms whether or not there is a balance of the local currency (step S7). Then, when there is a balance of the local currency (step S7: Yes), the process of step S5 is repeated. On the other hand, when there is no balance of the local currency (step S7: No), the use of the local currency is stopped. In this way, since the donor 200 uses the local currency while checking the balance of the local currency of the donor terminal 20, the display device (liquid crystal display device, etc.) of the donor terminal 20 always or arbitrarily has a region. It is possible to display the balance of currency.

The store facility terminal 30 of the store / facility 300 transmits a settlement request for the local currency to the system server 10 (step S8). When the system server 10 receives the local currency clearing request from the store facility terminal 30 (step S9), for example, the total amount of the local currency for a predetermined period (monthly or weekly) is set to a plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government. Deposit (transfer) the settlement amount to the account opened by (step S10). The deposit of this local currency may be not only a transfer but also, for example, a bill.

Further, the request for clearing the local currency transmitted from the store facility terminal 30 to the system server 10 is the local currency held by the donor 200, and products and services are provided at a plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government that can use the local currency. The local currency information (the balance of the local currency for each donor 200) used for each donor 200 is stored and updated in the storage unit 11 of the system server 10. Therefore, the local currency clearing request transmitted from the store facility terminal 30 to the system server 10 includes not only the amount of the used local currency but also information (for example, user ID) that can identify the donor 200 used. ing.

The system server 10 transmits the completion of the settlement of the local currency to the store facility terminal 30 (step S11), and the store facility terminal 30 receives the receipt of the completion of the settlement of the local currency (step S12) of the store facility terminal 30. By displaying on a display device (liquid crystal display device (not shown)), the store / facility 300 confirms that the settlement of the local currency has been completed.

As described above, the regional revitalization system 1 of the present embodiment issues the regional currency that can be used by the local government 400 of the donation destination as a reward for the donation provided by the donor 200. It is possible to encourage the recipients to visit the local government 400 and to revitalize the local government 400 (region) by improving the number of customers.

[5. Customer attraction support processing]
Hereinafter, the customer attraction support process in the regional revitalization system 1 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. This process functions as a customer attraction support means in the present embodiment.

The system server 10 receives festival and event information from the local government terminal 40 of the local government 400 (step S20). The festival and event information received from the local government 400 is, for example, the festival and event information peculiar to the local government that is regularly held in the local government 400, such as the holding time of a fireworks display. The system server 10 that has received the event information searches for the donor 200 who owns the local currency of the local government 400 (step S21). Then, the festival or event information from the local government 400 is transmitted to the donor terminal 20 of the corresponding donor 200 (step S22). The donor terminal 20 that has transmitted the event information from the system server 10 displays the festival or event information from the local government on the display device of the donor terminal 20 (step S23).

The plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400 transmit new information such as sales of new products and execution of new services from the store facility terminal 30 to the system server 10 (step S24). The system server 10 that has received new information such as sales of a new product or execution of a new service (step S25) searches for a donor 200 that owns 400 local currencies of the local government (step S26). Then, the sale of the new product and the execution of the new service are transmitted to the donor terminal 20 of the corresponding donor 200 (step S27). The donor terminal 20 that has transmitted new information such as sales of new products and execution of new services from the system server 10 is new such as sales of new products and execution of new services from a plurality of stores / facilities 300 of the local government 400. The information is displayed on the display device of the donor terminal 20 (step S28).

It is a means of reimbursement of expenses.

The system server 10 searches for a donor 200 who owns the same local currency (step S30). Then, when the number of the corresponding donors 200 is a predetermined number (for example, 30 people) or more, the travel plan to the corresponding local government 400 is transmitted to the travel agency terminal 50 of the travel agency 500 (step S31). .. As described above, the travel agency terminal 50 is owned by a plurality of travel agency 500s that have business tie-ups with the regional revitalization system 1, is a well-known computer (desktop personal computer, etc.), and is a public communication network. It has a function of being able to communicate with the system server 10 via 60.

When the travel agency terminal 50 receives the travel plan to the local government 400 from the system server 10 (step S32), the travel agency terminal 50 formulates a travel plan to the local government 400 (step S33). In the drafting of the travel plan to the local government 400, the holding of the bus tour, the travel date and time, the travel route, etc. are determined as the travel plan to the municipality 400 for the donor 200.

When the system server 10 receives the travel plan, it transmits the travel plan to the donor terminal 20 of the donor 200 who owns the same local currency of the local government 400 (step S35). The donor terminal 20 displays the received travel plan on the display device of the donor terminal 20 (step S36). When the donor 200 decides to participate in the travel plan, the donor terminal 20 pays the system server 10 the participation in the travel plan and the local currency required for the participation (step S37).

The system server 10 clears the total of the local currencies of the participants in the travel plan (step S38), deposits the cleared expenses to the travel agency (account transfer and issuance of bills), and notifies the travel agency terminal to that effect. It is transmitted to 50 (step S39). When the travel agency terminal 50 receives the payment of expenses (step S40), the travel agency terminal 500 displays the fact on the display device, so that the travel agency 500 confirms the payment and the travel plan is executed.

In this way, by allowing the donor 200 to use the local currency as transportation expenses for moving to the donation destination municipality 400, the trip itself provides a cheap travel plan to the hobby donor 200. Can be done.

It can be used as an opportunity for a trip to the local government 400 of the donation destination by 200. However, if the expiration date is set unilaterally, the local currency may not be consumed depending on the circumstances of the donor 200. Therefore, the local currency with the shortest remaining expiration date is used as a conventional gift (a special product of the local government 400) on the system server 10. It is desirable to provide a means of local currency exchange that can be exchanged for goods, etc.).

In addition, when the system operator 100 has a processor who develops a new special product in the local government 400 on the dedicated site of the system server 10, the system operator 100 goes to the local government 400 where the processor resides in order to support the processor.
