As a result, it is possible to contribute to an increase in sales of game providers.

  (3) When the management balance is not 0 in the communicable state (for example, NO in step S6703 and YES in step S6711), or when the offline balance is not 0 in the communication impossible state ( For example, when YES in step S6703 and YES in step S6711, the input of payment request information requesting the payment process is accepted (for example, YES in step S6022) and the portable terminal is accepted (For example, YES in step S6022) While performing the settlement process, the transaction request is received in step S6021 without receiving the settlement request information (for example, the settlement request is not received in step S6022). Received the mobile terminal (for example, A fourth use process for lending the game medium using the management remaining amount or the offline remaining amount and the electronic money information (for example, performing medal lending control in step S642) on the condition of YES in step S6021), The total amount (for example, 1050) of the fourth usage amount (for example, equivalent to 1000 yen) provided for the fourth usage process and the indirect tax amount (for example, equivalent to 50 yen that is 5% of 1000 yen) corresponding to the fourth usage amount A fourth subtraction process (for example, data processing) for subtracting a difference (for example, (1050-X) yen or equivalent) between the management balance or the offline balance (for example, X yen) from the electronic money information In step S6455, the unit 610 transmits a subtraction request equivalent to (1050-X) yen, and controls the non-contact type IC chip 190 to the mobile phone 100. In step S921, the control unit 191 receives a subtraction request, and performs a subtraction process in step S923.

  According to such a configuration, when the storage balance is not 0 in the communication enabled state or the offline balance is not 0 in the communication disabled state by the gaming device, the payment request information for requesting the payment processing is input. Checkout is performed on the condition that the mobile terminal is accepted and the mobile terminal is accepted. On the condition that the mobile terminal is accepted without accepting the input of the settlement request information, the management balance or the offline balance And a fourth usage process for lending gaming media using the electronic money information, and the sum of the fourth usage amount provided for the fourth usage process and the indirect tax amount corresponding to the fourth usage amount and the remaining memory amount or A fourth subtraction process for subtracting the difference from the offline balance from the electronic money information is performed.

  For this reason, the stored balance or the offline balance and the electronic money information can be obtained without performing the third use process using the electronic money information with the valuable value added after the stored balance or the offline balance is once settled as the electronic money information. A fourth use process using is performed. As a result, it is possible to improve the convenience of the player who wants to continue the game.

  (4) After receiving the money (for example, after money is inserted into the money handling machine 680) until at least identification (for example, until a banknote identification notification is received from the money handling machine 680 in step S6014), or The mobile terminal is received during the period until the identification amount of the money handling machine 680 is stored in the storage unit 620 in step S6121 (for example, the transaction request from the mobile phone 100 is received in step S6021). Based on the above, the third use process is performed and the accepted money is returned (for example, the data processing unit 610 transmits a bill insertion disabling control signal to the money handling machine 680 in step S6431. In step S6813, a bill insertion impossibility control signal is received by 680, and step 680 is performed. 6814 state of the money handling machine 680 is changed to the bill insertion disabled state, in step S6821, as soon as the bill 681 is taken, in step S6823, control is performed that the bill 681 is returned).

  According to such a configuration, the third use process is performed and accepted based on the fact that the mobile device is accepted at least during the period from when the money is received until it is identified by the gaming device. The money is returned.

  For this reason, even if electronic money information remains in the mobile terminal, even if money is received, if the mobile terminal is received during the period until it is identified, the third usage process And the accepted money will be returned. As a result, according to the gaming device, electronic money information with many restrictions on usage is used for gaming in preference to money with little restrictions on usage, and the money remains at the player's hand.

  The settlement request is information transmitted as a response to the first confirmation signal, and the settlement amount of the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 (remaining storage amount) is settled as a value to the non-contact type IC chip 190 of the mobile phone 100. Information to request. The serial number is a number for discriminating each of transactions such as medal lending using a plurality of values executed using the mobile phone 100 which is a transaction request transmission source, which will be described later, and payment as a value. Thereafter, the control unit 191 returns the process to be executed to step S911.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the payment state has not been set (NO in step S912), the control unit 191 reads the terminal ID and serial number from the storage unit 192 in step S914, and reads the value balance as a non-contact type IC. A transaction request that is read from the storage unit 192 of the chip 190 and includes the read terminal ID, serial number, value balance, and processing type is medal lending is transmitted to the medal sand 600A that is the transmission source of the first confirmation signal. The transaction request is information transmitted as a response to the first confirmation signal, and is information for requesting a medal loan using a value. Thereafter, the control unit 191 returns the process to be executed to step S911.

  Returning to FIG. 31, in step S6021, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not a transaction request including a terminal ID, a serial number, a value balance, and a processing type is medal loan is received from the mobile phone 100. . If it is determined that a transaction request has not been received (NO in step S6021), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S6022.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a transaction request has been received (YES in step S6021), in step S6600, data processing unit 610 executes value processing.

  FIG. 43 is a flowchart showing the flow of value processing executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. 43, first, in step S6601, the data processing unit 610 stores the terminal ID included in the transaction request from the mobile phone 100 in the unauthorized terminal information stored in the storage unit 620 in the unauthorized registration process in step S610. It is determined whether or not the terminal ID is indicated by. That is, it is determined whether the mobile phone is an unauthorized mobile phone.

  If it is determined that the mobile phone 100 is not an unauthorized mobile phone (the terminal ID acquired from the mobile phone 100 does not match the terminal ID stored in the storage unit 120) (NO in step S6601), the data processing unit 610 performs a process to be executed. The process proceeds to S6430. On the other hand, if it is determined that the mobile phone is an unauthorized mobile phone (the terminal ID acquired from the mobile phone 100 matches the terminal ID stored in the storage unit 120) (YES in step S6601), the data processing unit 610 in step S6602. Performs unauthorized mobile phone processing.

  FIG. 40 is a flowchart showing the flow of the unauthorized mobile phone process executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 40, first, in step S671, data processing unit 610 displays an error display for notifying a store clerk or the like of game hall 30 on the amount display unit 644 of display unit 640 that it is an unauthorized mobile terminal. Let That is, if it is determined in step S6601 that they match, a subtraction request is not transmitted in step S6444, step S6446, and step S6455, which will be described later, and the display unit 640 is notified of an error process.

  Next, in step S <b> 672, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not the medal sand 600 </ b> A is reset by the store clerk of the game hall 30. If it is determined that the reset operation has not been performed (NO in step S672), data processing unit 610 repeats the process in step S672.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a reset operation has been performed (YES in step S672), data processing unit 610 terminates the unauthorized mobile processing and returns the process to be executed to the caller processing of this unauthorized mobile processing.

  Proceeding to FIG. 43, in step S6430, it is determined whether prepaid card 371 or IC coin 651 is being taken in. If it is determined that the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 is not being taken in (NO in step S6430), the data processing unit 610 terminates the value process and executes the process to be executed by the caller of the value process. Return to medal sun domain processing.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 is being taken in (YES in step S6430), in step S6431, the data processing unit 610 executes banknote insertion disabling control. Since banknote insertion disabling control has been described in step S6122 of FIG. 32, description thereof will not be repeated.

  Next, in step S6432, the data processing unit 610 stores the terminal ID, serial number, and value balance included in the received (acquired) transaction request in the storage unit 620 in association with each other.

  Next, in step S6441, the data processing unit 610 determines whether there is a remaining balance. If it is determined that there is no remaining balance (NO in step S6441), in step S6441a, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not the value balance (Y) is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount. In this embodiment, the predetermined amount is an amount obtained by adding a consumption tax amount of 5% to an amount corresponding to the medal 611 paid out by medal lending for one time using the value. It is 1050 yen that is 50 yen of 5% added to 1000 yen corresponding to 50 medals of 20 yen per 1 to be paid out. If it is determined that Y <1050 (NO in step S6441a), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be performed to the process in step S6456.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that Y ≧ 1050 (YES in step S6441a), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be performed to the process in step S6444. On the other hand, if it is determined that there is a remaining amount to be stored (YES in step S6441), in step S6442, the data processing unit 610 adds a 5% consumption tax to 100 yen in which the remaining amount (= X) is the lending unit amount. It is determined whether or not the sum is equivalent to 105 yen or more. If it is determined that X <105 (NO in step S6442), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be performed to the process in step S6451.

  If it is determined that X ≧ 105 (YES in step S6442), in step S6443, the data processing unit 610 determines whether the value balance (Y) is equal to or greater than the predetermined amount described above. If it is determined that Y <1050 (NO in step S6443), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be performed to the process in step S6445.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that Y ≧ 1050 (YES in step S6443), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S6444.

  In step S6444, the data processing unit 610 reads the device ID of the medal sand 600A stored in the storage unit 692 and the subtraction amount that is the same amount as the predetermined amount in step S6443 from the storage unit 620, and reads the device ID and A subtraction request including the subtraction amount and the updated serial number updated in the serial number included in the transaction request received in step S6021 is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 held over the chip reader / writer 690.

  Here, updating the serial number is, for example, adding 1 to the serial number, but is not limited to this. For example, a predetermined number may be added or a predetermined number may be subtracted. Good. The subtraction request is information for requesting the mobile phone to subtract the value corresponding to the transaction amount (medal loan amount).

  In step S6445, the data processing unit 610 determines whether X + Y ≧ 1050. If it is determined that X + Y <1050 (NO in step S6445), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S6456.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that X + Y ≧ 1050 (YES in step S6445), in step S6446, the data processing unit 610 reads the device ID of the medal sand 600A stored in the storage unit 692 and reads the device ID. A subtraction request including the ID, the subtraction amount equivalent to Y yen, and the updated serial number is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 held over the chip reader / writer 690.

  Next, in step S6447, the data processing unit 610 transmits a subtraction notification including data indicating the recording medium ID and (1050-Y) yen as the amount to be subtracted to the store server 800. The processing of the store server 800 that has received the subtraction notification has been described in steps S851 to S853 in FIG. 38, and therefore, repeated description will not be repeated.

  In step S6448, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A determines whether or not a subtraction completion notification is received from the store server 800. If it is determined that the subtraction completion notification has not been received (NO in step S6448), data processing unit 610 repeats the process of step S6448.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the subtraction completion notification has been received (YES in step S6448), in step S6449, the data processing unit 610 subtracts (1050-Y) yen from the stored balance. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S640.

  In step S6451, the data processing unit 610 determines whether X + Y ≧ 1050. If it is determined that X + Y <1050 (NO in step S6451), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S6456.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that X + Y ≧ 1050 (YES in step S6451), in step S6452, the data processing unit 610 issues a subtraction notification including data indicating the recording medium ID and the X yen as the amount to be subtracted. Send to server 800. The processing of the store server 800 that has received the subtraction notification has been described in steps S851 to S853 in FIG. 38, and therefore, repeated description will not be repeated.

  In step S6453, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A determines whether or not a subtraction completion notification is received from the store server 800. If it is determined that the subtraction completion notification has not been received (NO in step S6453), data processing unit 610 repeats the process in step S6453.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a subtraction completion notification has been received (YES in step S6453), in step S6454, data processing unit 610 subtracts X yen from the stored balance.

  In step S6455, the data processing unit 610 reads the device ID of the medal sand 600A stored in the storage unit 692, and reads the device ID, the subtraction amount equivalent to (1050-X) yen, the updated serial number, and the like. Is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 held over the chip reader / writer 690. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S640.

  In the present embodiment, when a subtraction request is transmitted in step S6444, step S6446, and step S6455, the subtraction request includes the device ID and is transmitted to mobile phone 100. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the device ID may be transmitted at a different timing, not when the subtraction request is transmitted. For example, when the first confirmation signal is transmitted in step S631, the device ID may be included in the first confirmation signal and transmitted to the mobile phone 100.

  As described above, when the medal sand 600A of the present embodiment receives a transaction request from the mobile phone 100, if there is no remaining balance (equivalent to 0 yen), the value is 1050 yen (1000 yen + A process for paying out 50 medals (equivalent to 1000 yen) is performed by subtracting the consumption tax (50 yen). On the other hand, when a transaction request is received when the stored balance is not equivalent to 0 yen, a process for paying out medals is performed using both the stored balance and value.

  Specifically, if the stored balance is 105 yen or more, the value balance is less than 1050 yen, and the total of the stored balance and the value balance is 1050 yen or more, the total value balance is subtracted and 1050 yen A process for subtracting the amount obtained by subtracting the value balance from the remaining storage amount and paying out 50 medals is performed. When the stored balance is 105 yen or more and the value balance is 1050 yen or more, the processing for paying out medals is performed by subtracting the equivalent of 1050 yen from the value in the same manner as when the stored balance is equivalent to 0 yen. .

  Also, if the remaining memory amount is less than 105 yen and the total of the remaining memory amount and the value balance is 1050 yen or more, the total remaining memory amount is subtracted and the amount obtained by subtracting the remaining memory amount from 1050 yen is subtracted from the value. A process of paying out 50 medals is performed. In other words, when the remaining balance is not equivalent to 0 yen, the remaining amount and the value are used in the game on the condition that the mobile phone 100 is accepted without accepting the settlement request, specifically, the transaction request is received. The difference is obtained by subtracting the remaining amount from 1050 yen, which is the sum of the fourth usage amount provided for the fourth usage process and the corresponding consumption tax amount. The process of transmitting a subtraction request for subtracting the value from the value to the mobile phone 100 is performed as the fourth subtraction process.

  In the present embodiment, the medal lending control is not performed when the value balance or the total amount of the value balance and the remaining storage amount is less than 1050 yen. However, the present invention is not limited to this. If the total amount of the value balance and the remaining balance is equal to or more than 105 yen, which is a sum of 100 yen, which is a predetermined unit for medal lending, and the corresponding consumption tax amount, an integral multiple (for example, value balance or If the total of the value balance and the remaining storage amount is 700 yen, medal lending control of 105 yen × 6 = 630 yen may be performed.

  Returning to FIG. 42, when it is determined that the first confirmation signal has not been received (NO in step S911), in step S921, the control unit 191 of the mobile phone 100 deducts the device ID and the subtraction amount from the medal sand 600A. Whether or not a subtraction request including the updated serial number has been received is determined.

  If it is determined that a subtraction request has been received (YES in step S921), the control unit 191 causes the storage unit 192 to store the device ID included in the subtraction request in step S922.

  Next, in step S923, the control unit 191 executes a subtraction process for subtracting a value corresponding to the subtraction amount included in the subtraction request from the value stored in the storage unit 192 of the non-contact type IC chip 190.

  Next, in step S924, the control unit 191 updates the serial number. Regarding the serial number update, specifically, the serial number stored in the storage unit 192 of the mobile phone 100 is replaced with the updated serial number included in the subtraction request. The control unit 191 may add and update the serial numbers stored in the storage unit 192 without acquiring the updated serial numbers from the medal sand 600A.

  In step S925, the control unit 191 controls the non-contact communication unit 193 to transmit the subtraction end signal (subtraction completion notification) including the terminal ID to the medal sand 600A that is the transmission source of the subtraction request. The subtraction end signal is a signal for notifying medal sand 600A that subtraction has ended. Thereafter, the control unit 191 returns the process to be executed to the process of step S911.

  Proceeding to FIG. 43, in step S640, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A executes value subtraction waiting processing.

  FIG. 44 is a flowchart showing the flow of the value subtraction waiting process executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 44, in step S641, data processing unit 610 determines whether a subtraction end signal including a terminal ID has been received from mobile phone 100 or not.

  If it is determined that a subtraction end signal has been received (YES in step S641), the data processing unit 610 controls the medal payout unit 601 to pay out a medal 611 corresponding to a predetermined amount in step S642.

  Next, in step S643, the data processing unit 610 displays transaction information including the terminal ID stored in step S6432, the value balance obtained by subtracting the predetermined amount subtracted from the value balance stored in step S6432, and the transaction amount. It transmits to the store server 800.

  In step S644, the data processing unit 610 performs bill insertion enable control. The bill insertion control is described in step S6157 of FIG. 32, and therefore description thereof is not repeated. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 ends the value subtraction waiting process, and returns the process to be executed to the value process of the caller of the value subtraction waiting process.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a subtraction end signal has not been received (NO in step S641), data processing unit 610 transmits a subtraction request in step S645, step S6444, step S6446, or step S6455. It is determined whether or not time T has elapsed. The elapsed time since the transmission of the subtraction request is measured by the data processing unit 610. If it is determined that time T has not elapsed (NO in step S645), data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the process in step S641.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the time T has elapsed (YES in step S645), in step S646, the data processing unit 610 displays an error display for notifying the chip reader / writer 690 that the mobile phone 100 is held again. It is displayed on the display unit 640.

  Next, in step S647, the data processing unit 610 executes value error processing. That is, the medal sand 600A performs medal lending control (transaction processing) based on receiving the subtraction end signal within a predetermined time T after the transmission of the subtraction request in step S6444, step S6446, or step S6455. On the other hand, if the subtraction end signal is not received within a predetermined time T after the subtraction request is transmitted, the mobile phone, that is, the mobile phone other than the mobile phone 100 having the terminal ID stored in step S6432 is not accepted ( (Cannot be used).

  FIG. 45 is a flowchart showing the flow of value error processing executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 45, first, in step S651, data processing unit 610 determines whether or not a reset operation has been performed. Since the reset operation has been described in step S672, description thereof will not be repeated. In the present embodiment, the reset operation is to receive a predetermined reset input by an operation of changing the power supply of the medal sand 600A from the off state to the on state after the power is temporarily turned off. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and any other method may be used as long as it accepts a predetermined reset input. For example, it accepts a predetermined reset input by receiving a reset signal from the management device 800. May be.

  If it is determined that a reset operation has been performed (YES in step S651), the data processing unit 610 executes a reset process in step S680.

  FIG. 41 is a flowchart showing a flow of reset processing executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 41, first, in step S674, data processing unit 610 transmits reset information including terminal ID and value balance to store server 800. The reset information is information for notifying the storage state of the storage unit 620 of the medal sand 600A when the reset operation is performed.

  Next, in step S675, the data processing unit 610 performs bill insertion enable control. The bill insertion control is described in step S6157 of FIG. 32, and therefore description thereof is not repeated. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 terminates the reset process, and returns the process to be executed to the caller process of the reset process.

  Thus, in the reset process, reset information including the terminal ID stored in step S6432 and the fact that the reset input has been made is transmitted to the store server 800. In the present embodiment, the data processing unit 610 transmits the reset information including the value balance stored in step S6432.

  45, after executing the reset process, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the caller's value error process, returns to the caller's value subtraction waiting process, and further calls the caller's value process. Return to.

  Thereby, the medal lending control is not executed when it is determined that the terminal ID does not match in step S656 to be described later by executing the value error process in step S647 for the state of the medal sand 600A. That is, a mobile phone other than the terminal ID stored in step S6432 cannot be used. However, when a reset input is received in step S651, reset processing is executed, and medal lending control using a mobile phone other than the terminal ID stored in step S6432 becomes possible.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that there is no reset operation (NO in step S651), in step S652, the data processing unit 610 transmits a confirmation signal different from that in step S631, specifically, a device ID, a terminal ID, and a serial number. The chip reader / writer 690 is controlled to transmit a second confirmation signal requesting the above. That is, when the medal sand 600A does not receive the subtraction end signal within the predetermined time T after the transmission of the subtraction request in step S6444, step S6446, or step S6455, the medal sand 600A transmits the second confirmation signal in step S652. Thus, the device ID stored in step S922, and the serial number and the terminal ID stored in the storage unit 192 are acquired from the received mobile phone 100.

  Returning to FIG. 42, when it is determined that the subtraction request has not been received (NO in step S921), the control unit 191 of the mobile phone 100 determines whether an addition request has been received in step S941. . The case where it is determined that the addition request has been received (YES in step S941) will be described later.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that an addition request has not been received (NO in step S941), has the control unit 191 received a second confirmation signal requesting a device ID, a terminal ID, and a serial number in step S931? Judge whether or not. When determining that the second confirmation signal has not been received (NO in step S931), the control unit 191 returns the process to be executed to step S911.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the second confirmation signal has been received (YES in step S931), in step S932, the control unit 191 reads the terminal ID and the serial number from the storage unit 192, and the value balance from the storage unit 192. Read the device ID stored in the storage unit 192 in step S922, and send a recovery request including the read terminal ID, serial number, value balance, and device ID to the medal sand 600A that is the transmission source of the second confirmation signal. The non-contact type IC chip 190 is controlled. Thereafter, the control unit 191 returns the process to be executed to step S911.

  45, in step S653, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A determines whether or not a recovery request including the terminal ID, serial number, value balance, and device ID has been received from the mobile phone 100. If it is determined that a recovery request has not been received (NO in step S653), the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the process in step S651.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the recovery request has been received (YES in step S653), the data processing unit 610 stores the medal sand 600A in step S655 in which the device ID included in the recovery request received in step S653 is stored. It is determined whether or not the device ID stored in unit 620 matches.

  If it is determined that the device IDs match (in the case of YES in step S655), in step S656, the data processing unit 610 stores the terminal ID included in the recovery request received in step S653 in the storage unit 620 in step S6432. It is determined whether or not it matches the terminal ID.

  If it is determined that the terminal IDs match (YES in step S656), in step S657, the data processing unit 610 indicates that the serial number included in the recovery request received in step S653 is the serial number stored in the storage unit 620 in step S6432. To determine whether or not.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the device IDs do not match (NO in step S655), or when it is determined that the terminal IDs do not match (NO in step S656), the data processing unit 610 performs a process to be executed. It returns to step S651.

  If it is determined that the serial numbers match (YES in step S657), the serial number has not been updated on the mobile phone 100, so the value is not subtracted. Therefore, in step S658, as in step S636, the data processing unit 610 transmits a subtraction request including the device ID, the subtraction amount, and the updated serial number to the mobile phone 100 held over the chip reader / writer 690.

  Next, in step S659, the data processing unit 610 executes the value subtraction waiting process described with reference to FIG. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 determines that a subtraction end signal has been received in step S641, and executes medal lending control in step S642.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the serial numbers do not match (NO in step S657), the serial number has been updated on the mobile phone 100, so the value is subtracted. Therefore, in step S661, the data processing unit 610 executes the medal lending control again without transmitting a subtraction request, similarly to step S642.

  Next, in step S662, the data processing unit 610 transmits the transaction information to the store server 800 as in step S643. In step S663, the data processing unit 610 performs bill insertion enable control. The bill insertion control is described in step S6157 of FIG. 32, and therefore description thereof is not repeated. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the value subtraction waiting process of the calling source of the value error process, and further returns to the value process of the calling source of the value subtraction waiting process.

  Returning to FIG. 43, after the end of the value subtraction waiting process in step S640, the data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to the process in step S6456. In step S6456, the data processing unit 610 performs bill insertion control.

  As described above, the medal sand 600A performs medal lending control on condition that the device ID acquired in step S653 matches the device ID stored in the storage unit 692. Specifically, when the device ID acquired in step S653 matches the device ID stored in the storage unit 692, and the acquired terminal ID and serial number match the terminal ID and serial number stored in step S6432, respectively. The medal sand 600A executes the medal lending control by transmitting the subtraction request again in step S658. If the terminal IDs match but the serial numbers do not match, the medal sand 600A executes medal lending control in step S661 without transmitting a subtraction request.

  In addition, in the present embodiment, the data processing unit 610 receives the banknote 681 by the money handling machine 680 and, in the present embodiment, receives the banknote 681 by the money handling machine 680 and then receives the banknote identification notification. In the period until the mobile phone 100 is received by the chip reader / writer 690, the reception of the transaction request is detected in step S6021 in FIG. 31, and the processing shifts to the value processing in step S6600. In Steps S6444, S6446, and S6455, a subtraction request is transmitted to the mobile phone 100.

  Furthermore, in the case of shifting to value processing, when a bill insertion impossible control signal is transmitted to the money handling machine 680 in step S6431 in FIG. 43, the bill handling machine 680 has already received the bill 681. In addition, in step S6832a of the money handling machine process shown in FIG. 33, reception of the banknote insertion disabling control signal is detected, and the banknote 681 is returned.

  On the other hand, when reception of the banknote identification notification is detected in step S6014 in FIG. 31, the process proceeds to the banknote processing in step S6100 and does not return to the main process until the banknote processing is completed, so the transaction request is detected in step S6021. Therefore, the medal lending control using the value is disabled until the end of the banknote processing after the banknote identification notification is received.

  This point is common to banknote processing, card acceptance processing, IC coin acceptance processing, medal lending processing, return processing, value processing, and settlement processing. Until the subroutine is completed, the process does not return to the medal sun domain process.

  Also, any of card reception, IC coin reception, medal loan button operation, return button operation, transaction request reception, and settlement request reception is detected during the period from receipt of the bill 681 to receipt of the bill identification notification. In the case where the detected event is detected, a subroutine process corresponding to the detected event is performed, and a bill insertion impossible control signal is transmitted to the money handling machine 680 in the subroutine, whereby the bill 681 is returned.

  The medal sun domain processing is not limited to the system as in the present embodiment, and for example, when it is repeatedly executed at predetermined time intervals by interrupt processing, the process proceeds to a subroutine such as banknote processing. The medal sun domain process may be executed in parallel. In this case, control is performed to disable execution of other processes in each subroutine process, the state is checked in the medal sun domain process, and it is determined whether or not to shift to the process of each subroutine. do it.

  For example, when a banknote identification notification is received in step S6014, the process proceeds to banknote processing, and after setting the value unusable state in step S6122, the value of the transaction is detected when reception of a transaction request is detected in step S6021 of medal sun domain processing. On the other hand, when it is determined that it is in an unusable state and the process does not proceed to the value process, when the reception of the transaction request is detected before the banknote process proceeds to step S6122, the process proceeds to the value process. In this case, in the banknote process, the transition to another process is confirmed, the banknote process is terminated, and the banknote 681 is returned by performing the banknote insertion impossibility control in the value process.

  Furthermore, when the medal sand 600A receives the prepaid card 371, the IC coin 651, or the banknote 681 as the value medium and performs medal lending control with the remaining amount of the received value medium, step S6017 in FIG. The medal lending control is performed based on the detection of the operation of the medal lending button 631 at step S6021, but if the accepted transaction request from the mobile phone 100 is detected at step S6021, the operation of the medal lending button 631 is subsequently accepted. Regardless of what, medal lending control is performed.

  Returning to FIG. 31, after the value process is executed in step S6600, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to step S6011. If the process has proceeded to step S6022, in step S6022, the data processing unit 610 has received from the mobile phone 100 a payment request including a terminal ID, a serial number, a value balance, and a processing type indicating payment. Judging. If it is determined that a payment request has not been received (NO in step S6022), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S6023.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a settlement request has been received (YES in step S6022), in step S6700, data processing unit 610 executes a settlement process.

  FIG. 46 is a flowchart showing the flow of the checkout process executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 46, first, in step S6701, the data processing unit 610 stores the terminal ID included in the payment request from the mobile phone 100 in the unauthorized terminal information stored in the storage unit 620 in the unauthorized registration process in step S610. It is determined whether or not the terminal ID is indicated by. That is, it is determined whether the mobile phone is an unauthorized mobile phone.

  If it is determined that the mobile phone 100 is not an unauthorized mobile phone (the terminal ID acquired from the mobile phone 100 does not match the terminal ID stored in the storage unit 120) (NO in step S6701), the data processing unit 610 performs a process to be executed. The process proceeds to S6703. On the other hand, if it is determined that the mobile phone is an unauthorized mobile phone (the terminal ID acquired from the mobile phone 100 matches the terminal ID stored in the storage unit 120) (YES in step S6701), the data processing unit 610 is determined in step S6702. Performs the unauthorized mobile phone processing described with reference to FIG.

  In step S6703, the data processing unit 610 adds the remaining storage amount to the added amount. In step S6711, the data processing unit 610 determines whether the added amount is greater than 0 yen and less than 105 yen. If it is determined that the added amount is 0 yen or more than 105 yen (NO in step S6711), the data processing unit 610 terminates the settlement process, and performs the process to be executed. Return to caller medal sun domain processing.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the added amount is greater than 0 yen and less than 105 yen (YES in step S6711), in step S6712, the data processing unit 610 determines the terminal ID and serial number included in the received payment request. The value balance is stored in the storage unit 620 in association with the value balance.

  Next, in step S6713, the data processing unit 610 reads the device ID of the medal sand 600A stored in the storage unit 692 from the storage unit 620, reads the device ID and the added amount, and the settlement request received in step S6022. The addition request including the updated serial number updated in the serial number is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 held over the chip reader / writer 690.

  Returning to FIG. 42, if it is determined in step S941 that the addition request has been received (YES in step S941), the control unit 191 stores the device ID included in the addition request in the storage unit 192 in step S942. Remember me.

  Next, in step S943, the control unit 191 executes addition processing for adding a value corresponding to the addition amount included in the addition request to the value stored in the storage unit 192 of the non-contact type IC chip 190.

  Next, in step S944, the control unit 191 updates the serial number. Regarding the serial number update, specifically, the serial number stored in the storage unit 192 of the mobile phone 100 is replaced with the updated serial number included in the addition request. The control unit 191 may add and update the serial numbers stored in the storage unit 192 without acquiring the updated serial numbers from the medal sand 600A.

  In step S945, the control unit 191 cancels the payment state which is the state of the non-contact type IC chip 190. In step S946, the control unit 191 controls the non-contact communication unit 193 so as to transmit the addition end signal including the terminal ID to the medal sand 600A that is the transmission source of the addition request. The addition end signal is a signal for notifying medal sand 600A that the addition has been completed. Thereafter, the control unit 191 returns the process to be executed to the process of step S911.

  Proceeding to FIG. 46, in step S6720, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A executes value addition waiting processing.

  FIG. 47 is a flowchart showing the flow of the value addition waiting process executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 47, in step S6721, data processing unit 610 determines whether an addition end signal including a terminal ID is received from mobile phone 100 or not.

  If it is determined that the addition end signal has been received (YES in step S6721), in step S6722, the data processing unit 610 stores the remaining amount in the terminal ID stored in step S6712 and the value balance stored in step S6712. Is added to the store server 800 including the value balance and the added amount.

  Next, in step S6723, the data processing unit 610 transmits a subtraction notification including the recording medium ID and the addition amount to the store server 800. With respect to the processing of the store server 800 that has received the subtraction notification, in steps S851 to S853 in FIG. 38, processing for subtracting the received addition amount from the management balance managed in association with the received recording medium ID is performed. .

  In step S6724, data processing unit 610 of medal sand 600A determines whether or not a subtraction completion notification has been received from store server 800. If it is determined that the subtraction completion notification has not been received (NO in step S6724), data processing unit 610 repeats the process in step S6724.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a subtraction completion notification has been received (YES in step S6724), in step S6725, data processing unit 610 subtracts the stored balance from the stored balance, that is, changes the stored balance to zero. In step S6726, the data processing unit 610 controls the amount display unit 644 to display 0 yen that is the remaining storage amount. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 ends this value addition waiting process, and returns the process to be executed to the settlement process of the caller of this value addition waiting process.

  As described above, the data processing unit 610 is in a state in which communication with the store server 800 is possible and the mobile phone 100 is accepted when the stored balance (in other words, the managed balance managed by the store server 800) is not zero. In addition, on the condition that the settlement request is received from the received mobile phone 100, the stored balance is a predetermined unit when the stored balance is used for medal lending control. Processing for transmitting an addition request to add the remaining amount to the value stored in the mobile phone 100 that has accepted the storage amount, provided that the sum is 100 yen and the corresponding consumption tax amount is less than 105 yen, and management In order to subtract the remaining amount, processing for transmitting a subtraction notification to the store server 800 is performed as a settlement process.

  Here, “the valuable value specified from the accepted value medium” means the valuable value that the value medium has when the value medium is accepted (in the case of the prepaid card 371 and the IC coin 651, the recording medium ID). Rather than referring only to the remaining amount managed by the store server 800 in association with the recording medium ID, or the identification amount in the case of the bill 681, the value at the time of reception is subtracted according to the medal lending control. This is a concept that also includes the valuable value that remains later (that is, the remaining amount stored in the storage unit 620 of the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment).

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the addition end signal has not been received (NO in step S6721), data processing unit 610 determines in step S6731 whether time T has elapsed since the addition request was transmitted in step S6713. Determine whether. The elapsed time since the addition request is transmitted is measured by the data processing unit 610. If it is determined that time T has not elapsed (NO in step S6731), data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the process in step S6721.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the time T has elapsed (YES in step S6731), in step S6732, the data processing unit 610 displays an error display for notifying the chip reader / writer 690 that the mobile phone 100 is held again. It is displayed on the display unit 640. Next, in step S6733, the data processing unit 610 executes addition error processing.

  FIG. 48 is a flowchart showing the flow of the addition error process executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 48, first, in step S6751, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not a reset operation has been performed. Since the reset operation has been described in step S672, description thereof will not be repeated.

  If it is determined that a reset operation has been performed (YES in step S6751), data processing unit 610 executes the reset process described in FIG. 41 in step S6780. That is, the process proceeds to step S674, and reset information including the terminal ID stored in step S6712 and the fact that the reset input has been made is transmitted to the store server 800. In the present embodiment, the data processing unit 610 transmits the reset information including the value balance stored in step S6712. Then, the data processing unit 610 advances the process to step S675, performs the bill insertion control, returns the process to be executed to the caller addition error process, and further returns to the caller value addition waiting process. Return to the caller's checkout process.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that there is no reset operation (NO in step S6751), in step S6752, the data processing unit 610 transmits a confirmation signal different from step S631, specifically, a device ID, a terminal ID, and a serial number. The chip reader / writer 690 is controlled to transmit a second confirmation signal requesting the above. That is, when the medal sand 600A does not receive the addition end signal within the predetermined time T after the addition request is transmitted in step S6713, the medal sandwich 600A transmits the second confirmation signal in step S6752, thereby accepting the mobile phone. From 100, the device ID stored in step S942, and the serial number and terminal ID stored in the storage unit 192 are acquired.

  Next, in step S6753, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A determines whether or not a recovery request including the terminal ID, serial number, value balance, and device ID has been received from the mobile phone 100. If it is determined that a recovery request has not been received (NO in step S6753), the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the process in step S6751.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the recovery request has been received (YES in step S6753), the data processing unit 610 stores the medal sand 600A in step S6755 in which the device ID included in the recovery request received in step S6753 is stored. It is determined whether or not the device ID stored in unit 620 matches.

  If it is determined that the device IDs match (in the case of YES in step S6755), in step S6756, the data processing unit 610 stores the terminal ID included in the recovery request received in step S6753 in the storage unit 620 in step S6712. It is determined whether or not it matches the terminal ID.

  If it is determined that the terminal IDs match (YES in step S6756), in step S6757, the data processing unit 610 indicates that the serial number included in the recovery request received in step S6753 is the serial number stored in the storage unit 620 in step S6712. To determine whether or not.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the device IDs do not match (NO in step S6755), or if it is determined that the terminal IDs do not match (NO in step S6756), data processing unit 610 performs the process to be executed. It returns to step S6751.

  If it is determined that the serial numbers match (YES in step S6757), the serial number has not been updated on the mobile phone 100, so that no value is added. Therefore, in step S6758, as in step S6713, the data processing unit 610 transmits an addition request including the device ID, the added amount, and the updated serial number to the mobile phone 100 held over the chip reader / writer 690.

  Next, in step S6759, the data processing unit 610 executes the value addition waiting process described with reference to FIG. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 determines that the addition end signal has been received in step S6721, and sets the remaining storage amount to 0 in step S6725.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the serial numbers do not match (NO in step S6757), since the serial number has been updated on the mobile phone 100, the value is added. Therefore, the data processing unit 610 transmits the addition information to the store server 800 in step S6762 as in step S6722.

  Next, in step S6763, the data processing unit 610 transmits a subtraction notification including the recording medium ID and the addition amount to the store server 800. With respect to the processing of the store server 800 that has received the subtraction notification, in steps S851 to S853 in FIG. 38, processing for subtracting the received addition amount from the management balance managed in association with the received recording medium ID is performed. .

  In step S6764, data processing unit 610 of medal sand 600A determines whether or not a subtraction completion notification has been received from store server 800. If it is determined that the subtraction completion notification has not been received (NO in step S6764), data processing unit 610 repeats the process of step S6764.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a subtraction completion notification has been received (YES in step S6764), the stored balance is changed to 0 again in step S6765 without transmitting an addition request again in the same manner as in step S6725. In step S6764, the data processing unit 610 controls the amount display unit 644 to display 0 yen that is the remaining amount of storage as in step S6726. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the value addition waiting process of the calling source of the addition error process, and further returns to the settlement process of the calling source of the value addition waiting process.

  Returning to FIG. 31, after the settlement process is executed in step S6700, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to step S6011. If the process has proceeded to step S6023, in step S6023, the data processing unit 610 has received from the outside (for example, a remote controller) a money handling machine release signal instructing control to be opened by the money handling machine 680. Judging.

  If it is determined that the money processor release signal has been received (YES in step S6023), in step S6024, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not the medal payout unit 601 is lending a medal. If it is determined that a medal is not lent (NO in step S6024), in step S6025, the data processing unit 610 executes money handling machine opening control for opening the safe of the money handling machine 680.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the money processor release signal has not been received (NO in step S6023), when it is determined that a medal is being loaned (YES in step S6024), and after step S6025, The data processing unit returns the process to be executed to the process of step S6011.

  If it is determined in step S6031 that the store server 800 is offline, the data processing unit 610 executes offline processing in step S6032.

  FIG. 49 is a flowchart showing a flow of offline processing executed in the medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 49, the processes in steps S7013 and S7014 are the same as the processes in steps S6013 and S6014 described in FIG. 31, respectively.

  When it is determined that the money handling machine 680 is out of order (YES in step S7013), or when it is determined that the bill identification notification is not received (NO in step S7014), the data processing unit 610 Then, the process to be executed is advanced to the process of step S7018. On the other hand, if it is determined that the bill identification notification has been received (YES in step S6014), in step S7400, the data processing unit 610 executes offline medal lending processing.

  FIG. 50 is a flowchart showing a flow of offline medal lending processing executed by medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 50, first, in step S7111, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not the deposit amount of the banknote 681 inserted in the money handling machine 680 indicated by the banknote identification notice received in step S7014 is 11000 yen. Determine whether.

  When it is determined that the deposit amount is not 1000 yen (NO in step S7111), in step S7112, the data processing unit 610 transmits a banknote return control signal for returning the banknote 681 to the money handling machine 680. Since the processing of the money handling machine 680 with respect to the banknote return control signal has been described in step S6832 to step S6834 of FIG. 33 described above, overlapping description will not be repeated. The process of step S7113 is the same as the process of step S6113 of FIG.

  If it is determined that the deposit amount is 1000 yen (YES in step S7111), the data processing unit 610 adds the deposit amount to the offline balance stored in the storage unit 620 in step S7121. The processing in step S7122 and step S7123 is the same as the processing in step S6122 and step S7123 in FIG. 32, respectively. In step S 7124, the data processing unit 610 performs control to display the offline balance on the amount display unit 644.

  Next, in step S7402, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not the remaining storage amount is equivalent to 1050 yen or more. If it is determined that the price is equal to or higher than 1050 yen (YES in step S7402), in step S7403, data processing unit 610 sets 1000 yen as the set amount and advances the process to be executed to step S6416.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the remaining storage amount is less than 1050 yen (NO in step S7402), in step S7412, the data processing unit 610 sets 900 yen as the set amount and executes the process in step S7416. Proceed to processing.

  In step S7416, the data processing unit 610 subtracts the sum of the set amount and the consumption tax amount from the offline balance stored in the storage unit 620. In step S7417, the data processing unit 610 controls the medal payout unit 601 to pay out the medal 611 corresponding to the set amount. Next, in step S <b> 7418, the data processing unit 610 performs control to display the offline balance on the amount display unit 644.

  Next, in step S7155, the data processing unit 610 transmits the bill storage instruction described above to the money handling machine 680. Since the processing of the money handling machine 680 when the bill storage instruction is received has been described in step S6835 and step S6836 in FIG. 33, overlapping description will not be repeated.

  Finally, in step S7419, the data processing unit 610 performs bill insertion enable control, value use enable control, and lending enable control. Since bill insertion enable control, value use enable control, and lending enable control have been described in step S6157 in FIG. 31 and step S6154 in FIG. 32, description thereof will not be repeated. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 ends the offline medal lending process, and returns the process to be executed to the offline process of the caller of the offline medal lending process.

  As described above, the medal sand 600A of this embodiment accepts only 1000 yen bills in the offline state, and when receiving 1000 yen bills, performs medal payout processing without performing a medal lending operation by the player. . At that time, an offline balance has already occurred (if the offline balance has been recorded on the accepted prepaid card 371 or IC coin 651, an offline balance has been generated as a result of already accepting a 1000 yen bill and performing an offline medal lending process. If the offline balance is 50 yen or more, which is a consumption tax amount corresponding to 1000 yen, a medal payout process for 1000 yen (1050 yen including tax) is performed using the offline balance. Therefore, the number of recording media handled by the player is reduced and the convenience is improved as compared with a case where the offline balance is recorded and discharged on a recording medium each time the offline balance is generated and is settled by the settlement apparatus.

  Returning to FIG. 49, after the offline medal lending process is executed in step S7400, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the medal sun domain process of the caller of this offline process. If the process has proceeded to step S7018, in step S7018, the data processing unit 610 determines whether the return button 632 has been operated. If it is determined that the return button 632 has not been operated (NO in step S7018), the data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to the process in step S7015.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the return button 632 has been operated (YES in step S7018), the data processing unit 610 executes offline return processing in step S7500.

  FIG. 51 is a flowchart showing the flow of offline return processing executed by medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 51, the process of step S7511 is the same as the process of step S6511. If it is determined that the prepaid card 371 is being loaded (YES in step S7511), in step S7512, the data processing unit 610 records the offline balance on the prepaid card 371 and erases the offline balance from the memory. The process in step S7513 is the same as the process in step S6513.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the prepaid card 371 is not being loaded (NO in step S7511), it is determined in step S7514 whether there is an offline balance. If it is determined that there is no offline balance (NO in step S7514), the data processing unit 610 terminates the offline return process and returns the process to be executed to the offline process that is the caller of the offline return process.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that there is an offline balance (YES in step S7514), in step S7516, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not the IC coin 651 is being loaded. If it is determined that IC coins are being taken in (YES in step S7516), data processing unit 610 records the offline balance in IC coin 651 being fetched in step S7517, and stores the offline balance from the memory. In step S7518, an acceptance IC coin return control signal instructing the return of the IC coin 651 being taken in is transmitted to the IC coin reader / writer 650. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to the process of step S7521.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the IC coin is not being taken (NO in step S7516), in step S7518, the data processing unit 610 stores the offline remaining amount in the waiting IC coin 651 stocked therein in step S7519. , The offline balance is erased from the memory, and in step S7520, a standby IC coin return control signal instructing the return of the standby IC coin 651 is transmitted to the IC coin reader / writer 650. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to the process of step S7521.

  In step S7521, the data processing unit 610 performs control to cause the amount display unit 644 to display an offline balance that is equivalent to 0 yen. Next, the processing from step S7531 to step S7534 is the same as the processing from step S6531 to step S6534 in FIG. 37, respectively. Thereafter, the data processing unit 610 terminates the offline return process, and returns the process to be executed to the offline process of the caller of the offline return process.

  Returning to FIG. 49, after the offline return process is executed in step S7500, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the medal sun domain process that is the caller of this offline process. If the process proceeds to step S7015, in step S7015, the data processing unit 610 determines whether a card acceptance signal indicating that the prepaid card 371 has been received is received from the card reader / writer 670. If it is determined that the card acceptance signal has not been received (NO in step S7015), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S7016.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a card acceptance signal has been received (YES in step S6015), in step S7200, data processing unit 610 executes an offline card acceptance process. The offline card acceptance process reads out the offline balance recorded in the prepaid card 371 from the card reader / writer 670 in place of the processes from step S6214 to step S6231 in the card acceptance process of FIG. Is stored in the storage unit 620, and the remaining amount of offline is displayed on the amount display unit 644. After the completion of the offline card acceptance process, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the offline process that is the caller of the offline card acceptance process.

  After the offline card acceptance process is executed in step S7200, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the medal sun domain process that is the caller of the offline process. When the process proceeds to step S7016, in step S7016, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not an IC coin acceptance signal indicating that the IC coin 651 has been received has been received from the IC coin reader / writer 650. If it is determined that an IC coin acceptance signal has not been received (NO in step S7016), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be performed to the process in step S731.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that an IC coin acceptance signal has been received (YES in step S7016), in step S7300, data processing unit 610 executes an offline IC coin acceptance process. The offline IC coin acceptance process reads and reads the offline balance recorded in the IC coin 651 from the IC coin reader / writer 650 instead of the processes from step S6314 to step S6331 in the above-described IC coin acceptance process of FIG. The offline balance is stored in the storage unit 620, and the offline balance is displayed on the amount display unit 644. After the completion of the offline IC coin acceptance process, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the offline process of the caller of the offline IC coin acceptance process.

  After the offline IC coin acceptance process is executed in step S7300, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the medal sun domain process that is the caller of the offline process. When the process proceeds to step S731, the data processing unit 610 controls the chip reader / writer 690 to transmit the first confirmation signal in step S731. Since the processing of the mobile phone 100 when the confirmation signal is transmitted has been described with reference to FIG. 42, the overlapping description will not be repeated.

  Returning to FIG. 49, in step S7021, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not a transaction request including a terminal ID, a serial number, a value balance, and a processing type of medal rental is received from the mobile phone 100. . If it is determined that a transaction request has not been received (NO in step S7021), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be executed to step S7022.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a transaction request has been received (YES in step S7021), in step S7600, data processing unit 610 executes offline value processing.

  FIG. 52 is a flowchart showing a flow of offline value processing executed by medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. The processing from Step S7601, Step S7602, and Step S7430 to Step S7432 is the same as the processing from Step S6601, Step S6602, and Step S6430 to Step S6432 in the value processing of FIG.

  Then, after the terminal ID, serial number, and value balance included in the transaction request are associated with each other and stored in the storage unit 620 in step S7432, whether or not the offline balance (Z) is stored (stored) in step S7433. If the offline balance is zero), and if it is determined that the offline balance is not stored (NO in step S7433), in step S7441, the data processing unit 610 has the value balance (Y) described above. It is determined whether the amount is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount. If it is determined that Y <1050 (NO in step S7441), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be performed to the process in step S7454.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that Y ≧ 1050 (YES in step S7441), in step S7444, the data processing unit 610 stores the device ID of the medal sand 600A stored in the storage unit 692 and the predetermined amount in step S7441. The subtraction amount, which is the same amount as the above, is read from the storage unit 620, and the subtraction request including the read device ID, the subtraction amount, and the updated serial number included in the transaction request received in step S7021 is sent to the chip reader / writer. It transmits to the mobile phone 100 held over 690.

  Since the processing of the cellular phone 100 when receiving the subtraction request has been described in steps S921 to S925 in FIG. 42, the overlapping description will not be repeated. In step S740, the data processing unit 610 executes offline value subtraction waiting processing. The offline value subtraction waiting process is a process in which the process of step S643 is deleted from the value subtraction waiting process of FIG. 44 described above. In addition, the offline value error process included in the offline value subtraction waiting process is a process in which the process of step S662 is deleted from the value error process of FIG. 45 and the bill insertion enabling control is performed instead of the reset process of step S680. It is.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S7433 that the offline balance is stored (YES in step S7433), in step S7434, the data processing unit 610 adds the value balance (Y) and the offline balance (Z). Is greater than or equal to the predetermined amount described above. If it is determined that Y + Z <1050 (NO in step S7434), data processing unit 610 advances the process to be performed to the process in step S7454.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that Y + Z ≧ 1050 (YES in step S7434), in step S7435, the data processing unit 610 performs processing of deleting (subtracting to 0) the stored offline balance, In step S7436, the device ID of this medal sand 600A stored in the storage unit 692 and the subtraction amount obtained by subtracting the offline balance (Z) from 1050 yen that is a predetermined amount are read from the storage unit 620, and the read device ID and A subtraction request including the subtraction amount and the updated serial number updated in the transaction request received in step S7021 is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 held over the chip reader / writer 690 and then described above in step S740. Perform offline value subtraction wait processing.

  Then, after performing the offline value subtraction waiting process, the data processing unit 610 performs the bill insertion enable control in step S7454, and then returns the process to be executed to the caller's offline process.

  As described above, the medal sand 600A according to the present embodiment is 1050 from the value balance if there is no offline balance (if it is equivalent to 0 yen) when a transaction request is received from the mobile phone 100 in the offline state. A process for paying out 50 medals (equivalent to 1000 yen) is performed by subtracting yen (1000 yen + consumption tax 50 yen). On the other hand, when a transaction request is received when the offline balance is not equivalent to 0 yen, processing for paying out medals is performed using both the offline balance and the value balance.

  Specifically, if the sum of the offline balance and the value balance is 1050 yen or more, the total offline balance is subtracted, and the amount obtained by subtracting the offline balance from 1050 yen is subtracted from the value balance to obtain 50 medals. Perform the payout process. That is, when the offline balance is not equivalent to 0 yen, the offline balance and the value balance are entered into the game on the condition that the mobile phone 100 is accepted without accepting the settlement request, specifically, the transaction request is received. Performing the fourth usage process for use, subtracting the offline balance, and subtracting the offline balance from 1050 yen, which is the sum of the fourth usage amount provided for the fourth usage process and the corresponding consumption tax amount A process of transmitting a subtraction request for subtracting the difference from the value balance to the mobile phone 100 is performed as a fourth subtraction process.

  In the present embodiment, the medal lending control is not performed when the value balance or the total amount of the value balance and the offline balance is less than 1050 yen. However, the present invention is not limited to this. If the total amount of the value balance and the offline balance is equal to or more than 105 yen, which is a sum of 100 yen, which is a predetermined unit for medal lending, and the corresponding consumption tax amount (for example, the value balance or If the total amount of the value balance and the offline balance is 700 yen, medal lending control of 105 yen x 6 = 630 yen may be performed).

  Returning to FIG. 49, after the offline value process is executed in step S7600, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the medal sun domain process that is the caller of the offline process. If the processing has proceeded to step S7022, in step S7022, the data processing unit 610 has received from the mobile phone 100 a payment request including a terminal ID, a serial number, a value balance, and a processing type indicating payment. Judging. If it is determined that a settlement request has not been received (NO in step S7022), data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the medal sun domain process that is the caller of this offline process.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that a settlement request has been received (YES in step S7022), in step S7700, the data processing unit 610 executes offline settlement processing. The offline settlement process is a process in which the offline balance is added to the stored balance in step S6703 in the settlement process of FIG. 46 described above. In this embodiment, since the offline balance does not exceed 105 yen, it is determined that the amount added in step S6711 shown in FIG. 46 is always less than 105 yen in the offline settlement process (YES). It will be. Therefore, in the off-line settlement process, the determination step of step S6711 in FIG. 46 may be omitted.

  In addition, the offline value addition waiting process of the subroutine of the offline settlement process is a process of subtracting the added amount from the offline remaining amount in place of the process of step S6722 to step S6725 in the value addition waiting process of FIG. In this process, the remaining amount is erased.

  In addition, the offline addition error processing of the subroutine of the offline value addition waiting process is a process of subtracting the added amount from the offline remaining amount in place of the processing from step S6762 to step S6765 in the addition error processing of FIG. In this process, the remaining amount is erased.

  As described above, the data processing unit 610 is in a state where communication with the store server 800 is not possible, and when the offline balance is not 0, on the condition that the mobile phone 100 is received, the received mobile phone is further received. On the condition that the settlement request is received from 100, the offline balance is a sum of the consumption tax amount corresponding to 100 yen, which is a predetermined unit when the offline balance is used for medal lending control, and 105. As a checkout process, a process for sending an addition request to add to the value stored in the mobile phone 100 that has accepted the offline balance and a process of subtracting (erasing) the offline balance on condition that the balance is less than yen. Do.

  After the completion of the offline settlement process, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the offline process that is the calling source of the offline settlement process. After the offline settlement process is executed in step S7700, the data processing unit 610 returns the process to be executed to the medal sun domain process that is the caller of this offline process.

  Referring back to FIG. 31, if it is determined in step S6037 that it is time to return online, in step S6038, the data processing unit 610 executes online return processing.

  FIG. 53 is a flowchart showing the flow of online return processing executed by medal sand 600A in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 53, in step S7214, data processing unit 610 reads the recording medium ID recorded in storage unit 620, and reads and reads the offline balance if the offline balance is stored in storage unit 620. The online return notification including the recording medium ID and the offline balance is transmitted to the store server 800.

  Returning to FIG. 38, in step S842, the data processing unit of the store server 800 determines whether or not an online return notification including the recording medium ID and the offline balance is received from the medal sand 600A. If it is determined that the offline return notification has not been received (NO in step S842), the data processing unit of the store server 800 advances the process to be executed to the process in step S851 described above.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that an online return notification has been received (YES in step S842), the processing from step S843 to step S846 described above is executed to add the offline balance to the management balance, and the management balance Is transmitted to the medal sand 600A as a remaining amount notification.

  Proceeding to FIG. 53, in step S7215, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A determines whether or not the remaining amount notification is received from the store server 800. If it is determined that the remaining amount notification has not been received (NO in step S7215), data processing unit 610 repeats the process in step S7215. The processing from step S7215 to step S7232 is the same as the processing from step S6215 to step S6322 in FIG. 34, respectively.

  As described above, when the medal sand 600A returns to the online state in a state where there is an offline balance, the recording medium ID and the offline balance are transmitted to the store server 800, and the store server 800 is the same as in the case of the card (IC coin) receiving process. Since the offline balance is added to the balance managed in association with the recording medium ID and the remaining balance can be used for the medal lending process, the player has to reinsert the recording medium. The convenience of the player is improved.

  Then, after the processing in step 7232, the data processing unit 610 transmits untransmitted transaction information and addition information to the store server 800 in step S7233, and then returns the processing to be executed to the caller medal sun domain processing. That is, in the offline value subtraction waiting process, the process of step S643 shown in FIG. 44 is not performed. In the offline value error process, the process of step S662 shown in FIG. 45 is not performed. The processing of step S6722 shown in 47 is not performed, and in the offline addition error processing, the processing of step S6762 shown in FIG. 48 is not performed, and the transaction information and addition information generated in the offline state are not transmitted to the store server 800. This message is sent when the online state is restored.

  FIG. 54 is a flowchart showing a processing flow of the balance management application program 214 executed by the electronic money management server 200 in the present embodiment.

  Referring to FIG. 54, first, in step S291, data processing unit 210 of electronic money management server 200 determines whether or not transaction information has been received from store server 800. If the transaction information is received (YES in step S291), the data processing unit 210 calculates the transaction amount included in the transaction information from the accumulated charge of the member ID corresponding to the terminal ID included in the transaction information in step S292. Subtract and add.

  After step S292 or when it is determined that transaction information has not been received (NO in step S291), the data processing unit 210 determines in step S281 whether or not there is a member ID whose accumulated charge is negative. Judging.

  Here, if the received transaction information includes the fact that the offline medal sand 600A exists, the data processing unit 210 returns to step S291 without performing the process of step S281. That is, in the offline medal sand 600A, when the offline checkout process is performed and the value of the mobile phone 100 is added, the addition information regarding the added amount is stored in the store server 800 until the medal sand 600A returns to the online state. Not sent to. On the other hand, when the added value is used for value processing in other online medal sandwiches, the transaction amount is transmitted to the store server 800. In this state, when transaction information is transmitted from the store server 800 to the electronic money management server 200, only the transaction amount is transmitted for the mobile phone 100, and no additional amount is transmitted. If the amount is subtracted, it may become negative. In such a case, it is inconvenient if it is determined to be fraudulent. Therefore, when there is an offline medal sand 600A, the process of step S281 is not performed.

  If it is determined that there is a member ID whose accumulated charge is negative (YES in step S281), in step S282, the data processing unit 210 adds the fraud count of the member ID once.

  After step S282, or when it is determined that there is no member ID whose accumulated charge is negative (NO in step S281), in step S283, the data processing unit 210 has a member ID whose fraud count is one. Determine whether or not.

  If it is determined that there is a member ID with one fraud count (YES in step S283), in step S284, the data processing unit 210 purchases using the mobile phone value of the terminal ID corresponding to the member ID. The fact that the recording medium ID of the prepaid card is registered in the unit and the illegal medium information including the terminal ID are transmitted to the game hall 30 side.

  After step S284, or when it is determined that there is no member ID with one fraud count (NO in step S283), in step S285, the data processing unit 210 determines whether there is a member ID with two fraud times. Judge whether or not.

  If it is determined that there is a member ID with two fraud times (YES in step S285), in step S286, the data processing unit 210 registers the terminal ID corresponding to the member ID in the ticket vending machine 300, and Then, the fraudulent terminal information including the terminal ID corresponding to the member ID is transmitted to the game hall 30 side where the fraud has occurred. In step S287, the data processing unit 210 also transmits the unauthorized terminal information to other game halls in the same trade area as the game hall 30 in which the fraud has occurred. The game arcade where the data processing unit 210 transmits the fraudulent terminal information is not limited to the game hall 30 in which the fraud has occurred or other game halls in the same trade area as the game hall 30 in which the fraud has occurred. It may be a playground, or may be a playground adjacent to the playground 30 where fraud has occurred.

  After step S287, or when it is determined that there is no member ID for the number of fraud times 2 (NO in step S285), in step S288, the data processing unit 210 determines that the number of frauds that occurred in game arcades nationwide is 3. It is determined whether or not the number of times has been exceeded.

  If it is determined that the number of frauds that have occurred at game arcades nationwide is 3 or more (in the case of YES in step S288), in step S289, the data processing unit 210 transmits portable use prohibition information to the game hall 30 side. . In step S290, the data processing unit 210 also transmits the portable use prohibition information to the game hall 30 where the fraud has occurred and the game hall nationwide.

  In addition, although the case where the data processing unit 210 transmits the portable use prohibition information to the game halls nationwide other than the game hall 30 in which fraud has occurred has been described, It may be transmitted to another game arcade in the same trade area, or a game arcade 30 where fraud has occurred and a neighboring game arcade. In this case, in step S288, it may be determined whether or not the number of frauds that have occurred in the game hall that is the transmission target of the portable use prohibition information is three or more. Thereafter, the data processing unit 210 returns the process to be executed to step S261.

  FIG. 55 is a flowchart showing a flow of store server processing executed by store server 800 in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 55, in step S811, the data processing unit of store server 800 determines whether transaction information, addition information, or reset information has been received from medal sand 600A.

  The store server 800 stores, for each terminal ID, the value balance included in the transaction information received from the medal sand 600A in association with the reception time of the transaction information, and receives the reset information from the medal sand 600A. Based on this, the fact that there was a reset and the reception time of the reset information are stored in association with each other. Thus, by comparing the value balance immediately before the time when the reset is stored and the value balance immediately after that, the value is subtracted on the mobile phone side in the transaction processing that has been reset. It can be specified whether or not the user has been confirmed. For example, if the difference between the immediately preceding value balance and the immediately following value balance is the transaction processing (medal loan control) twice (2000 yen), the transaction processing is performed on the mobile phone side in the reset transaction processing. In spite of being performed, it is possible to specify that the medal lending control is not performed, and it is possible to guarantee the user the amount (1000 yen) for one medal lending control.

  If it is determined that transaction information, addition information, or reset information has been received (YES in step S811), the data processing unit of the store server 800 calculates a value balance for each terminal ID included in the transaction information in step S812. Corresponding information to be identified is stored in the storage unit. Further, the transaction amount and the addition amount are individually counted for each terminal ID.

  After step S812, or when it is determined that transaction information, addition information, or reset information has not been received (NO in step S811), the data processing unit of the store server 800, in step S813, It is determined whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed since the transaction information was previously transmitted to the balance management AP 214 of 200. In the present embodiment, the predetermined time is 3 hours.

  If it is determined that a predetermined time has elapsed since the previous transmission of transaction information (YES in step S814), the data processing unit of store server 800 uses mobile phone 100 after the previous transmission stored in the storage unit in step S814. Transaction information (including the transaction amount for each terminal ID and the total result of the addition amount) is transmitted to the electronic money management server 200.

  Here, the store server 800 checks whether or not the offline medal sand 600A exists at the time of transmission of the transaction information, and if there is an offline medal sand 600A, the transaction information including that fact is included. Is transmitted to the electronic money management server 200.

  After step S814 or when it is determined that the predetermined time has not elapsed since the previous transmission of transaction information (NO in step S814), the data processing unit of the store server 800 obtains the portable use prohibition information in step S821. It is determined whether it has been received from the electronic money management server 200.

  If it is determined that the portable use prohibition information has been received (YES in step S821), the data processing unit of the store server 800 transmits the portable use prohibition information to all the medal sands 600A in the game hall 30 in step S822. To do.

  After step S822, or when it is determined that the portable use prohibition information has not been received (NO in step S821), the data processing unit of the store server 800 acquires the unauthorized terminal information in step S823. It is determined whether or not the message is received from 200.

  If it is determined that the unauthorized terminal information has been received (YES in step S823), the data processing unit of the store server 800 transmits the unauthorized terminal information to all the medal sands 600A in the game hall 30 in step S824.

  After step S824 or when it is determined that fraudulent terminal information has not been received (NO in step S823), the data processing unit of the store server 800 obtains fraudulent medium information from the electronic money management server 200 in step S825. It is determined whether or not received from.

  If it is determined that the illegal medium information has been received (YES in step S825), the data processing unit of the store server 800 stores the data in the storage unit corresponding to the terminal ID included in the illegal medium information in step S826. The recorded recording medium ID is transmitted to all medal sands 600A in the game hall 30.

  After step S826 or when determining that the unauthorized medium information has not been received (NO in step S825), the data processing unit of the store server 800 returns the process to be executed to step S811.

  Next, main effects obtained by the embodiment described above will be described.

  (1-1) In an online state in which the prepaid card 371 and the IC coin 651 can be communicated with the store server 800 that manages the management balance used for lending medal 611 in association with the recording medium ID for individually identifying In addition, the prepaid card 371 is received by the card reader / writer 670, and the data processing unit 610 determines in step S6015 that the prepaid card 371 has been received, or the IC coin reader / writer 650 receives the IC coin 651, When the data processing unit 610 determines in step S6016 that the IC coin 651 has been received, the data is processed by the store server 800 in association with the received prepaid card 371 or the recording medium ID of the IC coin 651. First used processing for lending a medal 611 in step S6417 by using the management balance that is performed.

  By sending a subtraction notification in step S6414 by the data processing unit 610, in step S852, the set amount provided for the first use process and the consumption tax amount for the set amount (in this embodiment, 100 yen, 200 yen,..., 500 yen, which is 5% of 5 yen, 10 yen,..., 25 yen) (in this embodiment, 105 yen, 210 yen,..., 525) A first subtraction process is performed for subtracting (equivalent to yen) from the management remaining amount managed in association with the recording medium ID of the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651.

  Further, when the offline state is incapable of communicating with the store server 800, the bill processing machine 680 accepts the bill 681 in step S6821, transmits a bill identification notice in step S6826, and the data processing unit 610 in step S7014. When the banknote identification notification is received, the banknote 681 is received, and the second usage process of lending the medal 611 in step S7417 is performed using the offline balance to which the deposit amount of the accepted banknote 681 is added. It is.

  In step S7416, the data processing unit 610 sets the set amount (1000 yen or 900 yen in the present embodiment) and the consumption tax for the set amount (1000 yen in the present embodiment). Alternatively, a second subtraction process is performed for subtracting the total amount (equivalent to 1050 yen or 945 yen in this embodiment) of 5% of 900 yen or equivalent to 50 yen or 45 yen from the offline balance.

  In addition, a first confirmation signal is transmitted in step S631 by the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A, and the first confirmation signal is received in step S911 by the control unit 191 of the non-contact type IC chip 190 of the mobile phone 100. In step S914, the transaction request is transmitted, the data processing unit 610 receives the transaction request in step S6021, and the mobile phone 100 in which the value is stored is received, and the control unit 191 performs the step. Subtraction processing is performed in S923, a subtraction end signal is transmitted in step S925, the subtraction end signal is received in step S641 by the data processing unit 610, and medal lending control is performed in step S642. Value stored in the mobile phone 100 Third use process is performed to lend medal 611 at step S642 and.

  The data processing unit 610 transmits a subtraction request equivalent to 1050 yen in step S6444, the control unit 191 receives the subtraction request in step S921, and performs subtraction processing in step S923, so that the third use is performed. The total amount of the predetermined amount provided for processing (equivalent to 1000 yen in the present embodiment) and the consumption tax amount corresponding to the predetermined amount (equivalent to 50 yen which is 5% of 1000 yen in the present embodiment) A third subtraction process for subtracting (in this embodiment, equivalent to 1050 yen) from the value stored in the storage unit 192 of the non-contact type IC chip 190 of the mobile phone 100 is performed.

  Also, in the online state, when the management remaining amount managed in association with the recording medium ID of the accepted prepaid card 371 or IC coin 651 by the medal sand 600A is not 0 (YES in step S6711), or When the offline balance after the second subtraction process is not 0 in the offline state (YES in the process corresponding to step S6711 in the offline settlement process of step S7700), the mobile phone 100 has been accepted ( On the condition that the answer is YES in step S6022 or step S7022), the data processing unit 610 adds the consumption tax amount of the added amount to the added amount in a process corresponding to step S6713 in the offline settlement process of step S6713 or step S7700. An addition request including the calculated amount is transmitted, and the control unit 191 of the non-contact type IC chip 190 of the mobile phone 100 receives the addition request in step S941, and the addition process is performed in step S943. The processing for adding the management balance or the offline balance to the value stored in the mobile phone 100 and the data processing unit 610 transmit a subtraction notification for subtracting the management balance in step S6723. Thus, in step S852, the amount of the added amount is added to the added amount in the processing for subtracting the amount obtained by adding the consumption tax amount to the added amount from the management remaining amount, or in the offline value addition waiting process of the offline checkout subroutine. Processing to subtract the amount of consumption tax added from the offline balance No production process is carried out.

  For this reason, in order to subtract the total amount including consumption tax from the management balance or offline balance, the management balance or offline balance often includes fractional amounts where the first place or the tenth place is not zero. Since the management remaining amount including the fractional amount or the offline remaining amount is added to the mobile phone 100 as a value, it is not necessary to settle the management remaining amount or the offline remaining amount as a small amount of money, and the player is not bothered. As a result, it is possible to reduce the trouble of preparing and replenishing a small amount of money and improve the convenience of the player.

  (1-2) As described in step S6711 and the processing corresponding to step S6711 in the offline settlement process, the data remaining in the medal sand 600A is used as the management remaining amount or the offline remaining amount by the first use of the management remaining amount or the offline remaining amount. A unit usage amount (equivalent to 100 yen in the present embodiment), which is a predetermined unit used for processing, and a consumption tax amount corresponding to the unit usage amount (in this embodiment, 5% of 100 yen) The settlement process is performed on the condition that it is less than the total amount (equivalent to 105 yen in the present embodiment) (YES in step S6711).

  For this reason, the first usage process is promoted until the management remaining amount or the offline remaining amount becomes less than the sum of the unit usage amount and the consumption tax amount. As a result, it is possible to contribute to an increase in sales of the game provider in the slot machine 700A.

  (1-3) The data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A accepts an input of a settlement request for requesting a settlement process when the management balance is not 0 in the online state (YES in step S6711) (in step S6022). (Yes), and on the condition that the mobile phone 100 is accepted (YES in Step S6022), the settlement process is performed, but the settlement request input is not accepted (the settlement request is not received in Step S6022). The transaction request is received in step S6021, and the mobile phone 100 is accepted (YES in step S6021). In step S642, the medal lending control is performed using the management remaining amount and the value. , The balance and value of the slot machine 700A game Fourth use process is carried out in order to use the medal lending control.

  In step S6452, the data processing unit 610 transmits a subtraction notification to the store server 800, and the store server 800 subtracts the amount indicated by the subtraction notification from the management remaining amount in step S852. The management balance is subtracted, and a subtraction request equivalent to (1050-X) yen is transmitted in step S6455, and the subtraction request is received in step S921 by the control unit 191 of the non-contact IC chip 190 of the mobile phone 100. In step S923, by performing the subtraction process, a predetermined amount (equivalent to 1000 yen in the present embodiment) provided for the fourth usage process and a consumption tax amount corresponding to the fourth usage amount (this implementation) In the form, the total amount (in this embodiment, equivalent to 50 yen, which is 5% of 1000 yen) A fourth subtracting process for subtracting the difference (equivalent to (1050-X) yen in this embodiment) between the value and the balance of management (X yen in this embodiment) (equivalent to 1050 yen) from the value. Done.

  Therefore, once the management balance is settled as value, the management balance or offline balance and value are used in the game of the slot machine 700A without performing the third use process using the value to which the balance is added. The medal lending control is performed. As a result, the convenience of the player who wants to continue the game in the slot machine 700A can be improved.

  (2-1) As described in steps S6821, S6824 to S6826, and step S6014, the money handling machine 680 and the data processing unit 610 receive the bill 681 and identify the amount of the bill 681.

  As described in steps S6014, S6132, S6134, S6135, and S6417, the banknote identification notification is received from the banknote processing machine 680, and the deposit amount of the identified banknote 681 is stored as the stored amount of the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651. The medal lending control is performed within the range of the stored amount of money.

  The storage unit 620 stores a device ID for individually identifying the medal sand 600A. As described in steps S631, S6021, S6022, S652, and S653, the chip reader / writer 690 and the data processing unit 610 receive a transaction request or a recovery request according to the first confirmation signal or the second confirmation signal, respectively. Thus, the mobile phone 100 is accepted.

  As described in Steps S6444 and S658, information including the device ID stored in the storage unit 620 for the cellular phone 100 received by the data processing unit 610, which is used for medal lending control. A subtraction request, which is information requesting subtraction of the value for a fixed amount (1050 yen in the present embodiment), is transmitted.

  As described in step S922, the control unit 191 of the non-contact type IC chip 190 stores the device ID included in the subtraction request transmitted from the medal sand 600A in the storage unit 192. As described in step S923, the control unit 191 subtracts the value corresponding to the subtraction amount included in the subtraction request transmitted from the medal sand 600A from the value stored in the storage unit 192. As described in step S925, the control unit 191 returns a subtraction end signal indicating that the subtraction has been completed to the medal sand 600A.

  As described in step S642, the subtraction end signal is received from the mobile phone 100 after the subtraction request is transmitted by the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A (YES in step S641 before YES in step S645). Based on the above, the medal lending control is executed.

  As described in step S653, the data processing unit 610 does not receive a subtraction end signal from the mobile phone 100 after the subtraction request is transmitted (YES in step S645 before YES in step S641), and thereafter When the mobile phone 100 is received by receiving the recovery request (YES in step S653), the device ID stored in the storage unit 192 of the mobile phone 100 is acquired.

  As described in step S <b> 655, the data processing unit 610 determines whether the acquired device ID matches the device ID stored in the storage unit 620. As described in step S661, the medal lending control is executed by the data processing unit 610 on the condition that the data processing unit 610 determines that they match in step S655.

  As described in Steps S6444, S6446, S6455, S658 and Step S7444, the banknote 681 is inserted into the money handling machine 680 by the data processing unit 610, and at least in steps S6014 and S7014, the banknotes are transferred from the money handling machine 680. Until the identification notification is received or until the deposit amount of the money handling machine 680 is stored in the storage unit 620 in step S6121, and the deposit amount of the money handling machine 680 is stored in the storage unit 620 in step S7121. Until the transaction request from the mobile phone 100 is received in steps S6021 and S7021, the subtraction request including the device ID is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 and the steps S6431, S6813, and S6. 14, S6821, S6823 and Step S7431, the data processing unit 610 transmits a bill insertion disabling control signal to the money handling machine 680 in Step S6431 and Step S7431, and the money handling machine 680 sends it in Step S6813. When the bill insertion impossible control signal is received, the state of the money handling machine 680 is changed to the bill insertion impossible state in step S6814, and immediately after the bill 681 is taken in step S6821, the bill 681 is returned in step S6823. Control is performed.

  Even when the banknote 681 has already been received, it is determined in step S6832a that a banknote insertion disabling control signal has been received, and in step S6833, the banknote 681 is returned.

  For this reason, in the transaction with the medal sand 600A, communication is interrupted without subtracting the value, and thereafter, after the medal lending control is performed in the other medal sand 600B, the mobile phone 100 accepts the medal sand 600A again. This prevents the medal lending control from being performed twice.

  Even if the bill 681 is accepted even though the value remains in the cellular phone 100, if the cellular phone 100 is accepted during the period until it is identified, a subtraction request is transmitted. Accordingly, medal lending control is executed, and the accepted bill 681 is returned. As a result, priority is given to money with few restrictions on usage, and values with many restrictions on usage are used for medal lending control, and money remains on the player's hand, improving the convenience of the player. Can do.

  (2-2) The mobile phone 100 stores in the storage unit 192 a terminal ID for individually identifying the mobile phone 100 and a serial number that is a number for distinguishing processing performed using the value. The As described in step S924, the serial number stored in the storage unit 192 is updated based on the fact that the mobile phone 100 has transmitted a subtraction request from the medal sand 600A (in the case of YES in step S921).

  As described in steps S631, S6021, and S6432, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A acquires the terminal ID of the mobile phone 100 from the received mobile phone 100, stores it in the storage unit 620, and receives it. A serial number corresponding to the mobile phone 100 is acquired and stored in the storage unit 620. As described in step S653, the data processing unit 610 further acquires the terminal ID and serial number stored in the mobile phone 100. As described in steps S <b> 656 and S <b> 657, the data processing unit 610 further determines whether or not the acquired terminal ID and serial number match the terminal ID and serial number stored in the storage unit 620.

  As described in step S658, when the data processing unit 610 determines that all of the device ID, terminal ID, and serial number match (in the case of YES in step S657), a subtraction request is sent to the mobile phone 100. Sent. As described in S661, when the data processing unit 610 determines that the device ID and terminal ID match and the serial numbers do not match (NO in step S657), medal lending control is executed.

  For this reason, even when communication is interrupted in the middle, when the mobile phone 100 is accepted again, medal lending control according to the value subtraction can be reliably performed.

  (2-3) As described in steps S631 and S6021, the serial number stored in the mobile phone 100 is acquired from the received mobile phone 100 by the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A.

  For this reason, compared with the case where it acquires from other apparatuses, such as the electronic money management server 200, a process is speeded up, and it can be made not to consume the storage capacity of another apparatus in order to memorize | store a serial number.

  (2-4) As described in steps S613 and S614, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A accepts the input of the terminal ID of the unauthorized portable terminal from the store server 800. As described in steps S6601 and S6701, the data processing unit 610 determines whether or not the acquired terminal ID matches the terminal ID of the unauthorized mobile terminal for which the input has been accepted. By preventing the data processing unit 610 from proceeding to the processing of steps S6444, S6446, and S6455 on the condition that it is determined that it matches the terminal ID of the unauthorized mobile terminal (YES in steps S6601 and S6701). Transmission of the subtraction request is prohibited, and error processing is executed by displaying an error in step S671. For this reason, it is possible to prevent medal lending control from being executed by an unauthorized mobile terminal.

  (2-5) When the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A determines that the terminal IDs do not match (in the case of NO in step S656), the processing is not allowed to proceed to step S661. Medal loan control is prohibited. As described in step S680, medal lending control for a mobile phone other than the mobile phone having the terminal ID stored in the storage unit 620, on condition that the input of the reset operation is received in step S651 by the data processing unit 610. Will be lifted.

  For this reason, it is possible to prevent a reduction in the number of executions of the medal lending control due to the player leaving the gaming machine without holding the mobile phone again and being unable to accept another mobile phone.

  (2-6) As described in steps S6021 and S6432, the data balance unit 610 of the medal sand 600A acquires and stores the value balance stored in the mobile phone from the received mobile phone 100. As described in steps S643 and S662, the data processing unit 610 performs a transaction including the value balance, terminal ID, and transaction amount stored in the storage unit 620 as the medal lending control is performed in steps S642 and S661. Information is transmitted to the store server 800. As described in step S674, the data processing unit 610 includes the value balance and the terminal ID stored in the storage unit 620 based on the input of the reset operation being accepted (in the case of YES in step S651). Reset information indicating that the input of the reset operation has been accepted is transmitted to the store server 800.

  For this reason, when there is a declaration of value guarantee from the player, the store server 800 can confirm the history and guarantee the player.

  (3-1) A card 681 is received by the money handling machine 680 in step S6821, a banknote identification notification is transmitted in step S6826, and a banknote identification notification is received by the data processing unit 610 in step S6014. The prepaid card 371 is received by the reader / writer 670, and the data processing unit 610 determines in step S6015 that the prepaid card 371 is received, or the IC coin reader / writer 650 receives the IC coin 651, and the data processing unit. If it is determined in step S6016 that the IC coin 651 has been received by 610, the bill 681, the prepaid card 371, or the IC coin 65 that can specify the remaining amount that can be used for the game in the slot machine 700A is determined. Is received, and a set amount within the range of the remaining amount specified from the accepted bill 681, prepaid card 371 or IC coin 651 (in this embodiment, equivalent to 100 yen, 200 yen, ..., 500 yen Is used for medal lending control in step S6417 of the game in slot machine 700A.

  By sending a subtraction notification in step S6414 by the data processing unit 610, in step S852, the set amount provided for use processing and the consumption tax amount for the set amount (100 yen and 200 yen in this embodiment). ,..., 500 yen, 5%, 10 yen,..., 25 yen) (in this embodiment, 105 yen, 210 yen,..., 525 yen) Equivalent) is subtracted from the management balance managed in association with the recording medium ID of the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651.

Further, the third use process and the third subtraction process described in (1-1) are performed.
Further, when the remaining amount specified from the accepted bill 681, the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 is not 0 by the medal sand 600A (YES in step S6711), the mobile phone 100 is received (step S6022). On the condition of YES), the data processing unit 610 transmits an addition request in step S6713, and the control unit 191 of the non-contact type IC chip 190 of the mobile phone 100 receives the addition request in step S941. In S943, by performing the addition process, a process for adding the remaining amount specified from the bill 681, the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 to the value stored in the received mobile phone 100, and the data processing unit 610 By step S67 3, a subtraction notification for subtracting the management remaining amount is transmitted, whereby a settlement process (value addition waiting processing) including processing for subtracting the management remaining amount managed in association with the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 is performed. Is included).

  For this reason, even if the remaining amount specified from the bill 681, the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 is a small amount, the remaining amount is added as a value to the mobile phone 100, so that the remaining amount is settled as a small amount of money. So that it is not necessary to bother the player. As a result, it is possible to reduce the trouble of preparing and replenishing a small amount of money and improve the convenience of the player.

  (3-2) As described in step S6711, when the remaining amount specified from the banknote 681, the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 by the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A is used for the first usage processing. A unit usage amount (equivalent to 100 yen in this embodiment), which is a predetermined unit, and a consumption tax amount corresponding to the unit usage amount (equivalent to 5 yen, which is 5% of 100 yen in this embodiment) ) Is less than the total amount (corresponding to 105 yen in the present embodiment) (YES in step S6711), the settlement process is performed.

  For this reason, the first use process is promoted until the remaining amount specified from the banknote 681, the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 is less than the sum of the unit use amount and the consumption tax amount. As a result, it is possible to contribute to an increase in sales of the game provider in the slot machine 700A.

  (3-3) When the remaining amount specified from the accepted bill 681, prepaid card 371 or IC coin 651 is not 0 by the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A (when YES in step S6711), the settlement process is performed. On the condition that the requested settlement request input is accepted (YES in step S6022) and the mobile phone 100 is accepted (YES in step S6022), the settlement process is performed, while the settlement request input is accepted. Without the payment request received in step S6022 but the transaction request is received in step S6021, and on condition that the mobile phone 100 is received (YES in step S6021), in step S642, the bill 681, Prepaid card 371 or IC coin 651 By performing the medal lending control in step S642 using the specified remaining amount and value, a third usage process for causing the remaining amount and value to be used for the medal lending control in step S642 in the game of the slot machine 700A is performed. It is.

  The subtraction request equivalent to (1050-X) yen is transmitted by the data processing unit 610 in step S6455, and the subtraction request is received in step S921 by the control unit 191 of the non-contact type IC chip 190 of the mobile phone 100. In step S923, by performing the subtraction process, the remaining amount is subtracted and a predetermined amount (in this embodiment, equivalent to 1000 yen) used for the fourth usage process and the consumption tax amount corresponding to the fourth usage amount ( In this embodiment, the difference between the total amount (corresponding to 50 yen, which is 5% of 1000 yen) (corresponding to 1050 yen in this embodiment) and the remaining amount (X yen in this embodiment) ( In the present embodiment, a fourth subtraction process for subtracting (1050-X) yen equivalent) from the value is performed.

  For this reason, after paying out once the remaining amount specified from the banknote 681, the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 as a value, the banknote 681, the prepaid can be used without performing the third use process using the value to which the remaining amount is added. The remaining amount and value specified from the card 371 or the IC coin 651 are used to perform medal lending control in the game of the slot machine 700A. As a result, the convenience of the player who wants to continue the game in the slot machine 700A can be improved.

  (3-4) As described in step S6022, the data processing unit 610 of the medal sand 600A accepts the settlement request transmitted from the accepted mobile phone 100.

  For this reason, it is possible to accept a settlement request without providing an operation unit for making a settlement request in the medal sand 600A.

  (3-5) When the medal lending button 631 is operated by the player, it is determined in step S6017 that the medal lending button 631 is operated, and the first use process is performed, while step S6021 When it is determined that the cellular phone 100 has been accepted, the second usage process is performed without accepting the operation of the medal lending button 631.

  For this reason, it is possible to reduce the time and effort of the player for performing the second use process.

  (4-1) Conventionally, there have been issues of game recording media used for games with electronic money and additional payment to game recording media (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-224423 (for example, paragraph 0035) )). This electronic money can be charged from the user's transaction financial institution. Then, the user purchases a game recording medium using the charged electronic money, or makes an additional payment to the game recording medium. However, according to such a technique, it is necessary to charge electronic money by connecting to a predetermined deposit machine in the game hall. For this reason, it was necessary to bother to go to the deposit machine to charge the electronic money. In addition, when the number of deposit machines is small, a state in which users wait in line to charge electronic money occurs, and the time spent on the game is reduced. For this reason, it is conceivable to increase the number of depositing machines. However, there is a limit to the space for installing the depositing machine and the capital investment cost is generated. In any case, since it is necessary to spend the time spent on the game out of the time that the player is in the game hall, there is a problem that the operation of the gaming machine is adversely affected. However, in this embodiment, since it is configured as described above, it is possible to reduce time and effort during value charging.

  Specifically, the charge request information is transmitted from the mobile phone 100 to the electronic money management server 200 in step S133 in accordance with the value purchase process in FIG. 16, so that the takeover in step S268 is performed in accordance with the value purchase AP in FIG. The screen information is transmitted from the electronic money management server 200 to the mobile phone 100. From the mobile phone 100 that has received the takeover screen information, in accordance with the web processing of FIG. 14, in step S118a, information related to the payment for the purchase of value is transmitted to the financial institution server 500, and the financial institution performs the settlement. The uncharged value is written in the storage unit 192 in accordance with the value issuing process. As a result, by sending charge request information from the mobile phone 100 to the electronic money management server 200, it is possible to charge value at any time and anywhere in advance or charge the value without leaving the seat even during a game. The adverse effects on the operation of the slot machine 700A and the like installed in the game hall 30 can be reduced.

  (4-2) Further, in the conventional technology, the mobile phone 100 can access the electronic money management server 200 to purchase value, and the payment can be made by accessing the financial institution server designated by the user. Even when using a mobile banking service, it is necessary to designate a financial institution to be used for depositing each time a value is to be purchased. However, in this embodiment, since it is configured as described above, it is possible to reduce time and effort during value charging.

  Specifically, according to the initial registration AP of FIG. 13, the user is allowed to select a financial institution in steps S219 to S224, and is registered in the user information DB 221. Then, the electronic money management server 200 receives the charge request information from the mobile phone 100, and in accordance with the value purchase AP of FIG. 17, the financial institution registered in association with the mobile phone 100 in step S246. Search is performed, and takeover screen information including communication destination designation information that enables access to the Internet banking system of the financial institution server searched for in step S268 is transmitted to the mobile phone 100. Then, according to the web process of FIG. 14, the mobile phone 100 can perform payment by transmitting information related to payment for value purchase to the designated financial institution server based on the transfer screen information in step S118a. For this reason, it is not necessary to designate a financial institution to be used for settlement each time a charge is requested, so that it is possible to reduce the trouble of charging value.

  (4-3) In order to solve the problem described in (4-1), for example, it is possible to purchase the value by accessing the electronic money management server 200 from the mobile phone 100 and specify the user for the payment of the price. It is conceivable to settle the value purchase amount using the mobile banking service by accessing the financial institution server. However, in actual value purchase, since the connection between the mobile phone 100 and the electronic money management server 200 is disconnected to connect to the financial institution server, the communication with the electronic money management server 200 is maintained and a series of operations are performed. The value cannot be charged by operation. That is, the connection with the electronic money management server 200 is temporarily disconnected, the value purchase amount is settled by connecting to the financial institution server, and then the electronic money management server 200 is connected again to charge the mobile phone 100 with the value. Is essential. For this reason, the operation for charging the value becomes complicated, resulting in a disadvantage that the operation burden on the user increases. However, since the present embodiment is configured as described above, it is possible to reduce the user's operation burden.

  More specifically, when the electronic money management server 200 receives the breaking news from the financial institution server 500, the processing after value consideration settlement is performed in step S270 according to the value purchase AP in FIG. 17, and step S2709 in FIG. The e-mail with the takeover information is transmitted to the mobile phone 100. When the hand-over information attached to the mail from the electronic money management server 200 is selected in the mobile phone 100, YES is determined in step S191 in FIG. 15, and uncharged according to the value issuance process in FIG. The value is written in the storage unit 192. Therefore, the user can recognize that the value can be charged by receiving the mail. Moreover, the operation burden for charging the value can be reduced.

  (4-4) By operating the takeover information attached to the e-mail, the value issuance processing in FIG. 19 is started, and the value issuance request information is transmitted to the electronic money management server 200 in step S152. The operation burden for charging can be further reduced.

  (4-5) In addition to the problem described in (4-3), there is another inconvenience that it is not possible to confirm whether or not the value has been purchased and can be charged. For this reason, due to a user error or the like, in spite of the fact that the uncharged value exists in the electronic money management server, there arises a disadvantage that the charge is repeatedly requested and the value is purchased. However, in the present embodiment, since it is configured as described above, it is possible to prevent inconvenience caused by a user error or the like.

  Specifically, even when the electronic money management server 200 receives charge request information from the mobile phone 100, “1” is written as the written information in step S244 in accordance with the value purchase AP of FIG. If a value purchase record that has not been updated to the stored state is registered and it is determined YES, the balance information in step S256, the total amount confirmation information in step S264, and the takeover screen information in step S268 are transmitted. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the information regarding the payment for the purchase of the value from being transmitted to the financial institution server 500 in step S118a. For this reason, there is an inconvenience that even though there is an uncharged value in which “0” is stored as written information, a further payment request is made due to a user's error or the like, and the value is purchased redundantly. Can be prevented.

  (4-6) When the electronic money management server 200 determines that the value purchase record that has not been updated to the state in which “1” is stored as the written information in step S244 is registered and it is determined as YES, After the charge induction screen is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 in step S245, from the value purchase record in which “0” is stored as written information in steps 276 to S277 in accordance with the value issuance processing AP in FIG. Value issue information for writing the specified amount of value is transmitted to the mobile phone 100. For this reason, the operation for charging the uncharged value can be omitted, and the convenience for the user can be improved.

  (4-7) If the electronic money management server 200 receives new charge request information in step S241 until it receives the consumption quick report from the financial institution server 500 in step S269, it has been written in the issue information DB 222 A plurality of value purchase records in which “0” is stored as information are stored. In this state, when the charge request information is further received in step S241 and when the value issuance request information is accepted in step S271, a plurality of documents stored in the issuance information DB 222 in steps 276 to S277 are stored. Value issuance information for writing the amount of value specified from the value purchase record in a state where “0” is stored as embedded information is transmitted to the mobile phone 100. That is, it is possible to charge values in a lump and improve user convenience.

  (4-8) As the timing for collecting the initial registration fee described in step S259, it is conceivable to transmit the area securing information to the mobile phone 100 after the initial registration fee is settled. However, in this case, there is a problem that it takes time and trouble to make a settlement with the financial institution server 500 for a small initial registration fee. In order to save this trouble, it may be possible to settle the initial registration fee together with the initial charge fee. However, if it is repeated maliciously to leave the electronic money game usage service and register again with the electronic money game usage service without charging the value, the electronic money game usage service is provided. However, even though the providing organization pays the service providing area management organization for the storage area for the electronic money game use service, the initial registration fee for the reservation cannot be settled from the user. However, in the present embodiment, since it is configured as described above, it is possible to reduce the user's operation burden for the settlement of the compensation for securing the storage area for the electronic money game use service, It is possible to reduce the initial registration fee.

  Specifically, the electronic money management server 200 receives charge request information from the mobile phone 100 for the first time after the area reservation information is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 that is the source of the charge request information. Transmits the value issuance information to the mobile phone 100 that is the transmission source of the charge request information on condition that the settlement of the total amount of the charge fee and the initial registration fee is completed. That is, when the value is charged for the first time, the initial registration fee is settled together with the charge fee. On the other hand, the electronic money management server 200 sets the area reservation information on the condition that the count value of the uncharge deletion counter corresponding to the registration request from the mobile phone 100 has reached a predetermined number (three times in the present embodiment). Prohibit transmission. As a result, the area reservation information of the storage area for the electronic money game use service is not transmitted to the remote issue server 400 of the service use area management organization, so that the remote issue server 400 does not charge the initial registration fee. As a result, the user's operational burden for the settlement of the initial registration fee can be reduced, while the unpaid amount generated by repeatedly securing the storage area for the electronic money game use service without purchasing value. It is possible to reduce the initial registration fee, that is, the damage caused to the provider of the electronic money game use service.

  (4-9) As described in step S2703, the count value of the uncharged deletion counter is subtracted on condition that the initial registration fee has been settled. For this reason, if you have to re-register multiple times unavoidably, the initial registration fee is settled at the first charge after registration, but the count value of the uncharged deletion counter exceeds the specified number of times, It is possible to prevent the inconvenience that the storage area for the electronic money game use service cannot be secured.

  (4-10) As described above, the predetermined number of times of (4-9) may be one. In that case, even if the count value of the uncharged deletion counter is not managed, the information indicating whether or not the initial registration fee has been settled is managed, so that the electronic money game use service can be performed without purchasing value. Therefore, it is possible to reduce an unsettled initial registration fee caused by repeatedly securing a storage area for use.

  (4-11) Conventionally, there is a mobile phone in which a charge request amount is input and transmitted to a server, and the electronic money management server transmits the requested amount of value to the mobile phone to charge (for example, a special feature). No. 2004-272560, paragraphs 0125 to 0129, FIG. 11 and FIG. 14). According to such a system, the value can be easily charged. In this case, the user's value consumption is not particularly limited. In addition, since convenience is improved, there may be a problem that the player is absorbed in the game. Furthermore, when the value can be charged without going to the deposit machine, the convenience is further improved, and the player is more likely to get into the game. However, in the present embodiment, since it is configured as described above, it is possible to prevent excessive intrusion into the game.

  Specifically, first, as described in step S253, the electronic money management server 200 manages a predetermined period (in the present embodiment, that day) that is managed for the mobile phone 100 that is the source of the charge request information. Whether or not to allow the purchase of value based on the accumulated amount on the day and the daily purchase limit (30000 yen in the present embodiment) determined in advance for the accumulated amount on the day Then, on the condition that it is determined to be acceptable, the value issue information is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 that is the transmission source of the charge request information, as described in step S277. For this reason, since it is determined whether or not value purchase is permitted based on the current day accumulated amount and the daily purchase limit amount, the charge amount within a predetermined period can be limited. As a result, it is possible to prevent the player who uses the mobile phone 100 as the transmission source of the charge request information from being excessively involved in the game.

  (4-12) Secondly, as described in step S251, the electronic money management server 200 relates to the value balance and the value balance that are the remaining value stored in the mobile phone 100 that is the transmission source of the charge request information. Based on the predetermined portable holding limit, it is determined whether or not the purchase of the value is permitted. On the condition that it is determined that the purchase is permitted, the value issuing information is requested to be charged as described in step S277. The information is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 that is the information transmission source. For this reason, it is further determined whether or not the purchase of the value is allowed based on the value balance stored in the mobile phone 100 and the mobile holding limit, so that the value balance stored in the mobile phone 100 can be determined. Can be limited. As a result, it is possible to prevent the mobile phone 100 from accumulating value within the range of the daily purchase limit on the day when the game hall 30 is not visited, so the mobile phone 100 that is the source of the charge request information is used. It is possible to further prevent excessive immersing in the player's game.

  (4-13) Conventionally, when charging a value, there has been a case in which a numeric input field for inputting a charge amount is displayed on the mobile phone 100 and a user is prompted to input a desired purchase amount. However, since the user can freely input the amount of money, there is a problem that if the amount of input exceeds the upper limit, it is necessary to prompt the user to input again, and the user is troubled. For this reason, it is conceivable that options for the charge amount of the value within the upper limit amount are incorporated in the electronic money application in advance and selected from the options. In this case, in order to change the option of the charge amount in accordance with the change of the charge upper limit amount, it is necessary to introduce the electronic money application purposely. However, since the present embodiment is configured as described above, it is possible to allow the user to select an appropriate charge amount efficiently.

  Specifically, as described in step S256, balance information including the display amount list information read in step S247 is transmitted to the mobile phone 100. Therefore, in the electronic money management server 200, even when the mobile holding limit or the daily purchase limit is changed, the display amount list information is changed in the electronic money management server 200 without changing the electronic money application. By doing so, the option of the charge amount displayed on the mobile phone 100 can be changed.

  (4-14) As described with reference to FIG. 29B, among the plural types of amounts included in the displayed amount list information, the purchase possible in step S255 is calculated by subtracting the daily accumulated amount from the daily purchase limit amount. It is possible to make the user recognize that it is possible to specify an option of an amount that is equal to or less than the amount of money and less than or equal to the purchaseable amount calculated in step S255 obtained by subtracting the value balance from the portable holding limit amount. In other words, among the multiple types of amounts included in the displayed amount list information, it is possible to specify options for the amount within the range of the difference between the daily purchase limit and the accumulated amount on the day, and the difference between the mobile holding limit and the value balance. It can be made to recognize that it is. As a result, it is possible to prevent the user from performing a useless operation that causes the user to select an option that cannot be purchased.

  (4-15) In accordance with the value processing of FIG. 43, a subtraction request including electronic money identification information designating a value of a specific type of electronic money as a debit target in steps S6444, S6446, S6455 is issued from the medal sand 600A to the mobile phone. Since the medal lending control can be performed using only the value transmitted to 100 and designated by the electronic money identification information, the medal lending control using different types of values can be prevented.

  (4-16) In step S812, the value amount used for the medal lending control and the mobile ID of the mobile phone 100 used for the medal lending control are stored in the store server 800 in association with each other. Further, the transaction amount and the addition amount are individually counted for each terminal ID. If it is determined in step S813 that the predetermined time has elapsed, the information stored in the store server 800 in step S814 is electronic money management as transaction information (including the transaction amount for each terminal ID and the total result of the addition amount). It is transmitted to the server 200. On the other hand, in step S2707, the accumulated charge amount and the mobile ID are associated with each other and stored in the issuance information DB 222. In step S292, the transaction amount included in the transaction information is subtracted from the accumulated charge amount of the member ID corresponding to the mobile ID included in the transaction information, and the addition amount is added. In step S281, the accumulated charge amount is a negative member. It is determined whether there has been an illegal transaction by determining whether there is an ID. If there is a fraudulent transaction, the fraudulent terminal information is transmitted to the game hall 30 where the fraudulent transaction has occurred in step S286.

  In the game hall 30 that has received the unauthorized terminal information, in S614, when the unauthorized terminal information is stored and the value is used for medal lending control, whether or not the mobile ID of the mobile phone 100 matches the unauthorized terminal information. If it is determined and they match, processing for not setting the balance to the value balance, that is, use stop processing is performed. As a result, it is possible to minimize damage when fraud exceeding the remaining amount is performed.

  (4-17) When there is an unauthorized transaction in step S281, the number of unauthorized transactions is incremented by 1 in step S282, and the frequency of the unauthorized transaction is measured. If the number of frauds is one, in step S284, the fraudulent medium information is transmitted to the game arcade 30 where the fraudulent transaction has occurred, and medal lending control by the prepaid card used for the fraudulent transaction is prohibited. If the number of frauds is two times, the fraudulent terminal information is transmitted to the game hall 30 where the fraudulent transaction has occurred and other game arcades in the same trade area as the game hall 30 in step S286 and step S287, and used for fraudulent transactions. The medal lending control by the mobile phone 100 is prohibited.

  Furthermore, when the number of frauds is 3, in step S289 and step S290, the portable use prohibition information is transmitted to the game hall 30 where the fraudulent transaction has occurred and to game halls nationwide. Then, in the game hall that has received the portable use prohibition information, the portable use prohibition information is stored in step S612, and in step S621, a process of prohibiting medal lending control using value for all mobile phones is performed. It is. As described above, since the prohibited content is selected and executed according to the frequency of fraudulent transactions, it is possible to minimize damage caused when fraud is performed more effectively.

  (4-18) As the value purchase processing, the option of the desired purchase amount is displayed in step S139, and the selection of the desired purchase amount is accepted in step S141. Therefore, the user actively executes the value purchase processing to purchase It is not necessary to display the choice of the desired amount. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the user from having to execute the process at the time of value purchase and display the option of the desired purchase amount. Further, since the value purchase process is immediately executed and the option of the desired purchase amount is displayed, the time required for the value purchase is shortened, and the operation rate of the gaming machine 30 such as the slot machine 700A or the pachinko gaming machine is increased. Can be improved.

  Next, a modification of the above-described embodiment will be described.

  (1) When the offline balance generated in the offline medal sand 600A is added to the value, and the value is consumed in the online medal sand, the added value is not transmitted to the electronic money management server 200, while the value Since the consumption amount exceeds the value balance managed by the electronic money management server 200, an inappropriate state occurs.

  Therefore, in the offline settlement process, the settlement value that is the value stored in the mobile phone 100 in response to the addition request transmitted in step S6713 of the settlement process is different from the charge value that is the charged value. You may make it memorize | store in this area | region. Then, in the electronic money management server 200, the charge value and the settlement value are managed separately, and when the settlement value stored in a different area of the storage unit 192 is used, that fact is transmitted to the electronic money management server 200. So that As a result, the electronic money management server 200 can grasp whether the adjustment value is used or the charge value is used, and an improper state in which the amount of consumption exceeds the charge value balance occurs. Can be prevented.

  The fact that the offline medal sand 600A exists is transmitted from the store server 800 to the electronic money management server 200, and when the medal sand 600A returns to the online state, the fact that it has returned to the online state and when offline. The settled terminal ID and the settlement amount may be transmitted from the store server 800 to the electronic money management server 200. As a result, even if an improper state occurs in the electronic money management server 200 in which the amount of consumption exceeds the balance of the charge value, the improper state is resolved when an indication of returning to the online state is transmitted. Can be made.

  (2) In the above-described embodiment, it is possible to use either the management balance or the offline balance for the settlement process or the offline settlement process. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Only one of the adjustment balance adjustment process) and the offline adjustment process in the offline state (offline balance adjustment process) may be performed.

  (3) In the embodiment described above, the medal sand 600A, which is a gaming apparatus, performs the process of paying out medals as the process of lending gaming media. It is also possible to instruct the gaming machine (slot machine or pachinko machine) to lend gaming media so that the gaming machine pays out gaming media.

  (4) In the prepaid card 371 and the IC coin 651 of the above-described embodiment, the recording medium ID is recorded and the remaining amount is not recorded. However, the remaining amount may be recorded in addition to the recording medium ID.

  (5) In the above-described embodiment, as described with reference to FIG. 50, when the deposit of banknotes is accepted in the offline state, the offline balance of the deposit amount is added even if the ball lending operation is not performed. I made a ball lending within the range. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and when the deposit of banknotes is accepted even in an offline state, the remaining amount of offline payment is performed when a ball lending operation is performed by adding the deposit amount to the offline balance without performing ball lending. You may be allowed to lend a ball within the range.

  (6) In the above-described embodiment, the medal lending control in the medal sand 600A has been described with reference to FIGS. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the process described with reference to FIGS. 31 to 48 may be applied to the ticket issuing process for issuing the prepaid card 371 by the ticket vending machine 300.

  (7) In the above-described embodiment, the serial number is updated in the subtraction process by the mobile phone 100 in step S924, and the serial number is not updated in the medal sand 600A. For this reason, if the serial number stored in medal sand 600A is the same as the serial number acquired from mobile phone 100 (YES in step S657), the subtraction process is not performed, so in step S658. The subtraction request was sent again. If the serial numbers are different (NO in step S657), the subtraction process has already been performed, so that medal lending control is executed in step S661.

  However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the serial number may be updated at the time of subtraction processing by the mobile phone 100 in step S924, and the serial number may be updated at the time of transmission of the subtraction request in the medal sand 600A. As a result, when the serial number stored in the medal sand 600A is the same as the serial number acquired from the mobile phone 100, the subtraction processing is performed, so that medal lending control is executed. If the serial numbers are different, the subtraction process has not been performed yet, so the subtraction request is transmitted again. Even if it does in this way, the effect similar to this Embodiment can be acquired.

  Specifically, it is as follows. In the above-described embodiment, when a subtraction request is transmitted in steps S6444, S6446, S6455, and S658, the medal sand 600A side does not update the serial number stored in the storage unit 620 in step S6432. Proceeded to the step. In this modification, the data processing unit 610 updates the serial number stored in the storage unit 620 when a subtraction request is transmitted in steps S6444, S6446, S6455, and S658. As a result, the serial number is also updated in the medal sand 600A when the subtraction is requested.

  In this modification, as a result of updating the serial number on the medal sand 600A side, when it is determined that the serial numbers match as the process corresponding to step S657 in the value error process shown in FIG. 45 of the above-described embodiment. By executing the processing from step S661 to step S663, the medal lending control is executed again without transmitting the subtraction request. On the other hand, when it is determined that the serial numbers do not match, the processing from step S658 to step S659 is executed, a subtraction request is transmitted, and then the processing of step S642 is executed, whereby medal lending control is performed. To be done.

  As described above, in this variation, in the value error processing shown in FIG. 45, when it is determined that the device ID and terminal ID acquired in the recovery request match and the serial numbers do not match, On the other hand, when the subtraction request is transmitted, when it is determined that the device ID, the terminal ID, and the serial number acquired in the recovery request all match, medal lending control (transaction processing) is executed without transmitting the subtraction request.

  (8) In the above-described embodiment, the electronic money management server 200 determines that the payment for the value purchase has been completed, on the condition that the consumption bulletin is received from the payment server 280 in step S269, and the step The value issuing information is transmitted to the mobile phone 100 in S277.

  However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the value issuance information may be transmitted to the mobile phone 100 so that the value can be purchased by credit card credit and the actual settlement is not completed.

  (9) In the above-described embodiment, in step S235 and step S2703, the number of times that the storage area for the electronic money game use service is deleted is counted by the uncharge deletion counter without purchasing value once. To manage whether the initial registration fee has been settled. Then, when it is determined in step S216 that the count value of the uncharge deletion counter has reached a predetermined number of times, the area securing information is not transmitted in step S236.

  As a result, the area issuing information for the storage area for the electronic money game use service is not transmitted to the remote issuing server 400, so that the initial issuing fee is not charged by the remote issuing server 400. For this reason, reducing the initial registration fee that is not settled by repeatedly securing the storage area for the electronic money game use service without purchasing value, that is, the damage caused to the provider of the electronic money game use service Can be reduced.

  However, the present invention is not limited to this. Information indicating whether or not the initial registration fee has been settled is managed, and the initial registration fee of the mobile phone of the registration request information transmission source may be unsettled by the information. On the condition that it is shown, transmission of area securing information to the mobile phone may be prohibited.

  (10) In the embodiment described above, the electronic money management server 200 manages the accumulated amount on the day, and the value balance stored in the mobile phone 100 depending on whether or not the total with the minimum purchase amount exceeds a predetermined amount. The upper limit judgment of was performed.

  However, the present invention is not limited to this, and an upper limit determination is made as to whether or not the sum of the accepted amount of accepted charge amount and the accumulated amount on the day is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount by executing the electronic money application 111 by the mobile phone 100. May be performed. In this case, when the electronic money application is executed by the mobile phone 100, the amount that can be stored on the day until the upper limit of the chargeable amount on the day is reached, and the mobile phone 100 that is stored until the upper limit of the value balance is reached. When a possible portable storage storable amount is calculated and the desired charge amount is displayed, an amount less than the storable storable amount on the day and a portable storage storable amount may be displayed.

  (11) Backing up the value balance stored in the storage unit 192 of the non-contact type IC chip 190 when the non-contact type IC chip 190 of the mobile phone 100 is charged and when the value subtraction is completed. May be stored in the storage unit 120.

  Further, backup may be performed when the value is charged or when the subtraction of the value is completed.

  Further, backup may be performed when the mobile phone 100 receives an input of a backup operation from the user.

  Alternatively, the backup may be performed every time a predetermined period (for example, 3 hours, 1 day, etc.) has elapsed since the previous backup was performed by the mobile phone 100.

  (12) In the embodiment described above, the integrated value of the value purchased on the day is integrated as the integrated value on the day. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the accumulated amount of value purchased during a predetermined period (for example, a period from 6 am to 6 am on the next day) may be accumulated.

  (13) In the above-described embodiment, processing for fraud is performed by the balance management AP 214 of FIG. 54 in accordance with the frequency of fraud for each member ID. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and processing for fraud may be performed according to the frequency of the total number of frauds in all mobile phones.

  (14) As described in step S281, the occurrence of an illegal transaction is determined based on whether or not the transaction amount exceeds the accumulated charge amount. If there is an unauthorized transaction exceeding the accumulated charge amount, an explanation is given in step S284. As described above, it may be an electronic money system that prohibits the use of a prepaid card 371 purchased by an unauthorized mobile phone 100 of the terminal ID of the member ID that performed the unauthorized transaction.

  In addition, as described in step S281, the occurrence of fraudulent transactions is determined based on whether or not the transaction amount exceeds the accumulated charge amount. If there is an unauthorized transaction that exceeds the accumulated charge amount, it is described in step S286. As described above, an electronic money system that prohibits the use of an unauthorized mobile phone 100 value of the terminal ID of the member ID that performed the unauthorized transaction may be used.

  In addition, as described in step S281, the occurrence of fraudulent transactions is determined based on whether or not the transaction amount exceeds the accumulated charge amount. If there is an unauthorized transaction that exceeds the accumulated charge amount, it is described in step S289. As described above, an electronic money system that prohibits the use of value on all mobile phones in a hall (amusement hall 30) where an illegal transaction has occurred may be used.

  (15) In the above-described embodiment, the electronic money system 10 includes the device installed in the game hall 30, the mobile phone 100, the electronic money management server 200, the payment server 280, the remote issuing server 400, and the financial institution server. 500.

However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the financial institution server used by the user may be a common financial institution server provided for a group of a plurality of financial institutions. In this case, when using financial institutions belonging to the same group, even if different financial institutions are used, communication is made with a common financial institution server provided for the group and payment is made. Further, the server used for paying the compensation is not limited to the server of the financial institution, but may be a server of an agency that communicates with the financial institution server registered by the user and performs payment of the compensation. That is, these cases are also included in the financial institution server.

  (18) In the above-described embodiment, the data processing unit of the electronic money management server 200 displays the mobile banking transition confirmation screen for confirming the user to take over to the mobile banking in step S268 of FIG. The transfer screen information is transmitted to the mobile phone 100, and the data processing unit 110 of the mobile phone 100 receives the transfer screen information from the electronic money management server 200 in step S117 of FIG. In S118a, transition to mobile banking was made so that payment was made. That is, the connection between the mobile phone 100 and the electronic money management server 200 is temporarily disconnected, the mobile phone 100 accesses the financial institution server 500 for settlement, and then the electronic money management server 200 is accessed again to access the electronic money. The information was written.

  However, the present invention is not limited to this. Instead of transmitting the takeover screen information in step S268 by the electronic money management server 200, payment is made by the financial institution server 500 from the mobile phone 100 via the electronic money management server 200. You may be able to do it. By doing so, exchange of payment is performed while the connection between the mobile phone 100 and the electronic money management server 200 that is divided when the mobile phone 100 and the financial institution server 500 exchange payments. Then, the process up to the subsequent writing of the electronic money information to the mobile phone 100 can be performed as a series of processes.

  (19) In the embodiment described above, in response to the financial institution designation information being transmitted in step S112 of FIG. 14 by the data processing unit 110 of the mobile phone 100, by the data processing unit 210 of the electronic money management server 200. In step S224 of FIG. 13, the financial institution designation information is registered in the user information DB 221.

  However, the financial institution designation information is not limited to being registered at the time of new member registration, and may be registered at another timing. For example, it may be registered when the value is first purchased, or may be registered when there is a request for registration of financial institution designation information from the mobile phone 100 of the player.

  (20) In the above-described embodiment, only the recording medium ID or the recording medium ID is recorded on the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651, and the server such as the store server 800 corresponds to the recording medium ID or the recording medium ID. When the information indicating the remaining amount is managed, the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 is issued, the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651 is deposited, or the remaining amount is subtracted from the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651. In addition, communication with the store server 800 was performed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and information indicating the remaining amount may be directly recorded on the prepaid card 371 or the IC coin 651.

  (21) In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the store is the game hall 30 and the transaction process is the medal lending control in the medal sand 600A has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and any store having a plurality of transaction devices may be used. For example, it may be a game center in which a plurality of game machines as transaction devices are installed. In this case, payment of the game price in the game machine is performed by electronic money, and the game machine can be started as transaction processing. Processing to make a state is performed. In addition, it may be a rental video store (manned or unattended) where a plurality of POS (Point Of Sales system) terminals as transaction devices are installed. In this case, payment of the price for video rental at the POS terminal is made by electronic money. As a transaction process, a subtraction process for the value input to the POS terminal is performed.

  (22) In the embodiment described above, in the medal sand 600A, as shown in steps S6445 and S6451 in FIG. 43, the sum of the mobile phone value balance and the remaining storage amount is less than a predetermined amount (1050 yen). The medal lending control was not performed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and if the value balance is 1050 yen or more, medal lending is performed for 1000 yen, and if it is less than 1050 yen, medal lending is performed for an integral multiple of 100 yen which is the minimum unit of medal lending control It may be. For example, if the value balance is 550 yen, medals for 500 yen may be lent.

  (23) In the embodiment described above, the mobile phone 100 is held over the medal sand 600A, so that the medal lending control is performed without accepting the player's operation. However, when the mobile phone 100 is held over, a predetermined amount (for example, 3000 yen) is deposited into the medal sand 600A, and thereafter, medal lending control is performed for each lending unit amount (for example, 500 yen) in accordance with the player's operation. May be. In this case, the deposit process corresponds to the transaction process.

  On the other hand, the prepaid card 371, the IC coin 651, or the banknote 681 may be received, and medal lending control may be performed without operating the medal lending button 631.

  (24) In the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIG. 45, transaction processing is not performed when the terminal IDs do not match in step S656. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and transaction processing may be performed even when the terminal IDs do not match. In this case, the newly received mobile phone terminal ID and the like are stored in an area different from the area storing the mobile phone 100 terminal ID for which subtraction has failed in step S6432 and processed again. When the mobile phone 100 in which the subtraction has failed is received, the processing for the mobile phone 100 may be resumed.

  (25) In the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIG. 45, if it is determined in step S655 or step S656 that the device ID or the terminal ID does not match, the process returns to step S653, and the mobile phone is again connected. It was decided to wait for him to be held. However, when it is determined that the device ID and the terminal ID do not match, processing such as error notification may be performed.

  (26) For example, if a separate serial number is stored for each transaction process or for each transaction device in the mobile phone 100, double transactions can be prevented without using a device ID as in this embodiment. it can. However, in this case, the limited storage area of the mobile phone 100 is excessively consumed. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, double transactions can be prevented without excessively consuming the storage area of the mobile phone 100.

  (27) In the above-described embodiment, it is determined that payment is selected in step S196 of the electronic money application on the mobile phone 100, and the state of the non-contact type IC chip 190 is set in the payment state in step S197.
