It is possible to acquire and display the aggregated information to be performed.

<Price display processing>
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a flow of processing for displaying the price of a product using a price code.

When the user photographs the QR code (registered trademark) using the user terminal 1, the user terminal 1 reads the URL from the price tag (S401), and the user terminal 1 accesses the read URL (S402). The URL encoded in the price tag
The product ID is included. In the present embodiment, the store ID is also encoded in the price tag. The user terminal 1 accesses the URL with a user ID indicating the user.

The server device 2 determines the price at which the product is provided to the user at the store (
S403).

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a flow of price determination processing. The server device 2 is price determination information corresponding to the store ID and the product ID, and searches for the information satisfying the conditions from the price determination information storage unit 234 (S421), and when there is such price determination information. Is (S422: Y
ES), the price is determined based on the price determination information (S423). For the pricing information, for example, the price itself may be set, or a discount rate may be set. Further, as the price determination information, a function for determining the price based on arbitrary data such as, for example, the price according to the number of purchases in the past may be set. In this case, the server device 2 may set the price as necessary. Browsing history, purchase history, information about the user (not shown), etc. can be read out and given to the price determination information function to determine the price.
When the price determination information corresponding to the store ID and the product ID and satisfying the conditions cannot be searched (S422: NO), the server device 2 sets the price determination model corresponding to the store ID and the product ID. The price determination model storage unit 233 reads (S424), and the price is determined using the read price determination model (S425).

Returning to FIG. 5, the server device 2 generates a browsing history based on the price acquisition request and the determined price, registers it in the browsing history storage unit 231 (S404), and responds to the determined price to the user terminal 1 (S405). ).

The user terminal 1 presents the received price to the user (S406), and when the user purchases the product, provides information necessary for the purchase (S407). In the example of FIG. 5, for example, the user terminal 1 presents information such as a QR code (registered trademark) to the POS 42, and the POS 4
2 can read this information and grasp the amount to be settled. The user terminal 1 may provide only the user ID, and the POS 42 may access the server device 2 to obtain a price to be sold to the user of the user terminal 1.

The POS 42 can transmit the purchase information to the server device 2 (S408). note that,
The POS 42 may transmit information directly from the POS register in the store 4 to the server device 2, or transmit the information to the store computer or cloud server that collects the POS register so that the server device 2 can access the information. You may. The server device 2 stores the acquired purchase history in the purchase history storage unit 232 (S409), and the registered purchase history (S409).
Other information may be combined. ) Can be used for machine learning to update the pricing model (S410).

As described above, according to the price presentation system of the present embodiment, the selling price of the product can be dynamically presented to the user.

<A / B test>
FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a process flow in which a seller tests a sales measure at different price settings. The sales policy test is also called an A / B test. That is, different conditions (different prices in the present embodiment) can be set in the A group and the B group, and the behavior of the user desired by the seller or the seller can be observed.

The process shown in FIG. 7 overlaps with the process shown in FIG. 6, and the difference will be described here. First, the price determination information is registered in advance from the seller terminal 5 to the server device 2 (S441).
In addition, by setting conditions that specify at least two groups of users to be sold,
Pricing information is set so that the two groups have different prices. Since the price determination information is registered, the price determination information is used in the price determination process S403.

Then, after registering the purchase history (S409), the server device 2 performs aggregation instead of updating the learning model (S442). As for the aggregation, for example, various aggregations can be performed for each group regarding the user's behavior regarding the product, such as purchasing for a price or transmitting on a social network. The seller terminal 5 transmits a request to the server device 2 (S443), and then
The aggregated result can be acquired (S444) and displayed (S445).

In this way, the seller can observe the reaction of the purchaser (user) to the price while changing the price arbitrarily and dynamically, and can formulate a pricing strategy based on this.

<Store presentation processing>
In the above-mentioned example, the output of the price in one store 4 has been described, but the prices offered in a plurality of stores may be presented. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a flow of processing for providing a store selling products.

The user terminal 1 transmits a request to the server device (S461). In the request, a product ID indicating a product desired by the user is set. In addition, it is assumed that the user ID indicating the user is specified by receiving the user authentication (or including the user ID in the request) in advance for the user terminal 1.

The server device 2 reads the price determination information or the price model corresponding to the product ID from the price determination information storage unit 234 or the price determination model storage unit 233 (S462), and stores the price determination information or the price model, that is, the store. Identify the store that sells the product. The server device 2 determines the offer price of the product to the user for each of the stores selling the product (S463). The process of determining the offer price of the product is the same as the process shown in FIG. 5 and the like. The server device 2 reads the store information of the store from the store information storage unit 236 (S464), and responds to the user terminal 1 with a list of the store information and the offer price of the product at the store to the user (S465). The user device 1 can display a list of received store information and prices (S466).

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of a screen 51 that displays information on a plurality of stores. As shown in the figure, the screen 51 includes a product input field 511. The user terminal 1 sends a request to acquire the store selling the product specified in the input field 511 to the server device 2. In the example of FIG. 8, the product ID is set in the request, but the product name is input as in the example of the screen 51, the product name is specified in the request, and the product name is set in the server device 2. The corresponding product ID may be searched. Based on the store information and the price returned from the server device 2, the user terminal 1 has a marker 513 indicating the store on the map 512 and a marker 513 indicating the store.
The price 514 of the goods sold at the store can be displayed.

The plurality of stores displayed on the map 512 may be operated by the same seller or may be operated by different sellers. For example, when a plurality of stores operated by the same seller are displayed on the map 512, the seller is crowded after grasping, for example, the distance traveled by the price by the above-mentioned A / B test. It is possible to register pricing information from a store that sets a price that leads to a vacant store.
