Description

TECHNICAL FIELD Embodiments of the present invention relate to an information processing apparatus and a program.

In recent years, due to an increase in EC (Electronic Commerce) sites, opportunities to purchase products on EC sites are increasing in addition to opportunities to purchase products at physical stores. When delivering a product purchased at a physical store, the customer enters attribute information such as name and address in a delivery slip for each delivery opportunity. When using an EC site, a customer is required to input attribute information using a mobile terminal or the like as membership registration for each EC site. Even if the customer does not register as a member, the customer is required to input attribute information as product delivery information using a portable terminal or the like.

As the number of opportunities to provide one's own attribute information increases, it is required to provide attribute information safely in addition to reducing the load required to provide attribute information such as entry or input.

The information processing terminal 3 may be a mobile terminal such as a smart phone or a tablet terminal. A configuration example of the information processing terminal 3 will be described later.

The payment server 4 is an electronic device that executes payment processing for online payment. The payment process is the process of paying for the product by online payment. The payment server 4 outputs a payment result based on the payment processing for online payment. The settlement result includes completion of settlement processing by the settlement server 4 or an error in settlement processing by the settlement server 4 . Completion of the payment process corresponds to success of the payment process. Completion of payment processing includes establishment of a commercial transaction through online payment. Payment processing errors correspond to payment processing failures. Payment processing errors include unsuccessful commercial transactions through online payments. To simplify the explanation, only one payment server is shown in FIG. 1, but a payment server may exist for each online payment type and for each online payment provider. A configuration example of the settlement server 4 will be described later.

The link server 5 is an electronic device that provides attribute information of each user to an external device. Attribute information is information about the user. Attribute information can also be called user information. Attribute information includes personal information and privilege information. Personal information is information that can identify a user. For example, personal information includes, but is not limited to, information such as the user's name, address and contact information. The privilege information is information indicating a privilege granted to the user for each privilege issuer. For example, benefits are various rewards such as, but not limited to, points, miles, and coupons. A privilege issuer is a business operator or a member store that issues a privilege. Providing the information to the external device includes linking the information with the external device. An external device is a device related to each user's payment. For example, when the user X makes an online payment at the payment terminal 2 of the store S, the information processing terminal 3 is a device related to user X's payment. User X's payment includes User X's online payment. Here, the information processing terminal 3 will be described as an example of the external device.

The processor 21 can perform necessary processing such as issuing a receipt via the printing device 27 based on the completion of the payment processing. On the other hand, if the payment result includes an error in the payment process, the attribute request transmission unit 213 omits transmission of the attribute information request to the information processing terminal 3 . Based on the payment processing error, the processor 21 can perform necessary processing such as displaying the payment processing error on the display device 25 .

The attribute request receiving unit 311 of the information processing terminal 3 receives the attribute information request and the request key from the payment terminal 2 (ACT 11). The attribute request transmission unit 312 transmits the received attribute information request and the request key to the cooperation server 5 based on the reception of the attribute information request and the request key by the attribute request reception unit 311 (ACT 12).

The attribute request receiving unit 5106 of the cooperation server 5 receives the attribute information request and the request key from the information processing terminal 3 (ACT 13). The approval request transmission unit 5107 transmits an approval request to the mobile terminal 1 based on the reception of the attribute information request by the attribute request reception unit 5106 (ACT14). In ACT 14, for example, the approval request transmitting section 5107 identifies user X as the destination of the approval request based on the request key received by the attribute request receiving section 5106. FIG. The approval request transmission unit 5107 can refer to information linking the request key stored in the auxiliary storage device 53 and the user who made the payment specified by the request key. The approval request transmission unit 5107 may transmit the approval request to the mobile terminal 1 so that the approval request is notified using any application program installed in the mobile terminal 1 .

The approval request receiving unit 111 of the mobile terminal 1 receives the approval request from the cooperation server 5 (ACT 15). The approval request display unit 112 controls display of the approval request on the display device 15 based on the reception of the approval request by the approval request receiving unit 111 (ACT 16). In ACT 16, for example, the approval request display unit 112 causes the display device 15 to display an approval request image as illustrated in FIG. Approval information sending unit 113 sends approval information to cooperation server 5 as a response to the approval request sent from cooperation server 5 (ACT 17). In ACT 17 , for example, the approval information transmission unit 113 transmits approval information to the cooperation server 5 based on the user X's selection of the approval button 71 . Note that the processor 11 transmits the denial information to the link server 5 based on the user X's selection of the denial button 72 .

The approval information receiving unit 5108 of the cooperation server 5 receives the approval information from the mobile terminal 1 as a response to the approval request sent to the mobile terminal 1 (ACT 18). Acquisition unit 5109 acquires the attribute information of user X from auxiliary storage device 53 based on the reception of the approval information by approval information reception unit 5108 (ACT 19). In ACT 19, for example, the acquisition unit 5109 identifies the user X whose attribute information is to be acquired, based on the request key used in sending the approval request corresponding to the approval information. The acquisition unit 5109 acquires the attribute information of the user X specified as the acquisition target from the auxiliary storage device 53 . It should be noted that when the cooperation server 5 receives the denial information from the mobile terminal 1, the acquisition unit 5109 omits the acquisition of the user X attribute information. Acquiring user X's attribute information based on receiving the approval information is an example of acquiring user X's attribute information in response to an approval request based on receiving the attribute information request. The attribute information transmission unit 5110 transmits the acquired attribute information of the user X to the information processing terminal 3 based on the acquisition unit 5109 acquiring the attribute information of the user X (ACT 20). In ACT 20 , for example, the attribute information transmission unit 5110 transmits personal information among the attribute information of the user X to the information processing terminal 3 .

The attribute information receiving unit 313 of the information processing terminal 3 receives the attribute information of the user X from the link server 5 as a response to the attribute information request sent to the link server 5 (ACT21). The storage control unit 314 stores the received attribute information of the user X in the auxiliary storage device 33 based on the reception of the attribute information of the user X by the attribute information receiving unit 313 (ACT22). As a result, for example, the operator of the store S can use the user X's attribute information to create a delivery slip for delivering the user X's purchased product.

The update unit 5111 of the cooperation server 5 updates the privilege information of the privilege issuer related to the settlement of the user X among the privilege information of the user X (ACT23). In ACT 23 , for example, the update unit 5111 identifies the privilege information of the privilege issuer related to the settlement of the user X among the privilege information of the user X stored in the auxiliary storage device 53 . In this example, the privilege information of the privilege issuer related to the settlement of the user X is the privilege information of the issuer of the privilege that can be used at the store S. The update unit 5111 updates the privilege information of the privilege issuer related to the user X's payment according to the user X's payment amount. For example, the update of privilege information is provision of points, miles, coupons, or the like according to the amount of user X's payment. The update process by the update unit 5111 may be performed after the payment result including the completion of the payment process by the payment result reception unit 5103 is received.

In ACT 23, the update unit 5111 may cooperate with the server of the issuer of the privilege available at the store S, and update the privilege information of the privilege issuer related to the user X's payment. In this example, the server that issues the privilege available at the store S may transmit information on the privilege to be added according to the payment amount of the user X to the cooperation server 5 . The update unit 5111 may update the privilege information of the privilege issuer related to the user X's payment based on the reception of the information of the privilege to be added according to the user X's payment amount.

According to the first embodiment, the information processing apparatus can acquire the user's attribute information according to the approval information based on the user's payment, and transmit the user's attribute information to the external device. Thereby, the information processing device can transmit the attribute information to the external device according to the approval information based on the user's simple input. Since payment has a function of personal authentication, the information processing device can safely transmit the attribute information to the external device without requiring personal authentication when transmitting the attribute information to the external device. Furthermore, for example, the user can omit entering the attribute information in the delivery slip when desiring to deliver the product purchased at the store. The user can not only save entries, but also reduce the chances of contact with people such as the person in charge of delivery slips and the chances of contact with many unspecified objects such as writing instruments. In this way, the information processing apparatus can improve the convenience of providing the attribute information to the external device by the user.

The information processing device can transmit an approval request based on reception of the attribute information request, and receive approval information as a response to the approval request. Thereby, the information processing device can confirm with the user that the attribute information will be transmitted to the external device for each payment based on the attribute information request received for each payment. Since the information processing device transmits the attribute information to the external device according to the user's confirmation for each payment, the attribute information can be safely handled.

The information processing device can update the privilege information of the privilege issuer related to the payment of the user. As a result, the information processing apparatus can centrally manage not only personal information but also privilege information for each privilege issuer. For example, the user can omit presenting a point card or the like at the store. The user can not only omit presentation, but also reduce the chances of contact with the accountant through an item such as a point card.

A modification of the first embodiment will be described.
An example has been described in which the cooperation server 5 receives the approval information as a response to the approval request after receiving the attribute information request, but the present invention is not limited to this. The approval information receiving section 5108 may receive the approval information before the attribute request receiving section 5106 requests the attribute information. In one example, the payment terminal 2 may transmit approval information to the cooperation server 5 together with the payment request. If the online payment specified by the user X is a payment using the mobile terminal 1 such as a code payment, the payment terminal 2 may transmit the approval information input by the user X on the mobile terminal 1 to the cooperation server 5. If the online payment specified by the user X is a payment that does not use the mobile terminal 1, such as a credit card payment, the payment terminal 2 may transmit the approval information input by the user X at the payment terminal 2 to the cooperation server 5. good. In another example, the mobile terminal 1 may transmit to the cooperation server 5 the online payment approval information designated by the user X in advance, independently of the payment, based on the user X's input. In this example, user X designates online payment specifying at least one of type and provider. The linking server 5 registers the approval information for the user X in association with at least one of the type of online payment and the provider of the online payment. The linking server 5 treats all online payments for which approval information has been obtained in advance as being approved to provide the attribute information of the user X to the external device for all payments after obtaining the approval information. In other words, the cooperation server 5 does not need to acquire new approval information of the user X for each payment for online payments for which approval information has been obtained in advance. The cooperation server 5 omits the processing of ACT14 and ACT18. Therefore, in ACT19, the acquisition unit 5109 acquires the attribute information of the user X from the auxiliary storage device 53 based on the reception of the attribute information request by the attribute request reception unit 5106. FIG.
Thereby, the information processing device can transmit the attribute information to the external device without transmitting the approval request based on the reception of the attribute information request. Since the information processing device can omit the transmission of the approval request, it is possible to simplify the processing steps. Since the user can input the approval information in accordance with the timing of payment, etc., convenience can be improved compared to inputting the approval information at a timing different from the timing of payment. In addition, the user can save the input of approval information for each payment by pre-registering the approval information.

Although the information processing terminal 3 has been described as an example of the external device, it is not limited to this. The payment terminal 2 may be an example of an external device. In this example, the processor 21 of the payment terminal 2 implements the same units as the attribute information receiving unit 313 and the storage control unit 314 of the information processing terminal 3 . In ACT 10 , the attribute request transmission unit 213 of the payment terminal 2 transmits the attribute information request and the request key to the cooperation server 5 . In ACT 13 , the attribute request receiving unit 5106 of the cooperation server 5 receives the attribute information request and the request key from the payment terminal 2 . In ACT 20 , attribute information transmission section 5110 of cooperation server 5 transmits attribute information of user X to payment terminal 2 . The attribute information receiving unit of the payment terminal 2 receives the attribute information of the user X from the cooperation server 5 as a response to the attribute information request sent to the cooperation server 5 . The storage control unit of the payment terminal 2 stores the received attribute information of the user X in the auxiliary storage device 23 based on the reception of the attribute information of the user X by the attribute information receiving unit.

The cooperation server 5 may have a payment processing function for online payment. In this example, if the cooperation server 5 can execute the online payment process specified by the user X, the cooperation server 5 executes the payment process without transmitting a payment request to the payment server 4 .

Although an example has been described in which the auxiliary storage device 53 of the link server 5 stores the payment information 531 of multiple users and the attribute information 532 of multiple users, the present invention is not limited to this. The payment information 531 of the plurality of users and the attribute information 532 of the plurality of users may be stored in a device different from the cooperation server 5 and capable of communicating with the cooperation server 5 .
