In step S4, when the client apparatus 20 has received the input of coupon information (for example, “C031571110”) of the coupon provided by the coupon provider Z, the login screen SC3 shown in FIG. 10C is displayed. become. As shown in FIG. 10C, an advertisement display area T3 is displayed on the login screen SC3 together with the message “Logged in to the Wi-Fi service.” In the advertisement display area T3, the advertisement of the coupon provider Z is displayed.
In this manner, an advertisement related to the coupon provider obtained by the user is displayed on the client device 20.
Note that access destination information for displaying a predetermined web page related to the advertisement (for example, a web page managed by the coupon provider X) may be set in the advertisement display area.

Returning to FIG. 9, after the login screen is displayed, the service server 10 provides the Wi-Fi service to the client device 20. When the Wi-Fi service is used by the client device 20, the service server 10 transmits / receives service data to / from the client device 20 (step S16).
In addition, when the process after login is performed by another server apparatus, the process of step S16 is not performed.

  According to the information processing system 1 of the first embodiment described above, the provision of a coupon that is exchanged for the authority to use the Wi-Fi service and the display of the advertisement are linked to each other to correspond to the provided coupon. In addition to the value of, the value that can be enjoyed by the coupon provider can be made higher quality. If the effect | action is demonstrated, the customer can utilize Wi-Fi service using the coupon information of the acquired coupon. Since this coupon information is used for the purpose of using the Wi-Fi service, it is more proactive by the customer than the case where it is essential that the purchase for the product or the payment for receiving the service is made mandatory. Easy to use. For this reason, it can be expected that the opportunity for the advertisement to be visually recognized by the customer is increased as compared with the case where the display condition is the execution of settlement and the advertisement is displayed at the time of settlement. Therefore, the opportunity for the advertisement related to the coupon provider to be noticed by the user increases, and for the coupon provider, the effect of the advertising activities by displaying the advertisement is improved.

Moreover, in the information processing system 1, a coupon provider is uniquely specified from coupon information. Therefore, if the service server 10 receives at least coupon information from the client device 20, the service server 10 transmits advertisement data related to the coupon provider who provided the coupon to the user U even when information specifying the coupon provider is not separately received. can do.
Further, the service server 10 manages coupon information and account information in association with each other. Accordingly, the service server 10 can manage account information for each client device 20 without using personal information of customers such as the user U. Therefore, the risk of leakage of personal information from the service server 10 is reduced.

[Second Embodiment]
In the information processing system 1 of the first embodiment described above, an advertisement corresponding to the coupon provider who provided the coupon is displayed on the login screen. On the other hand, in the information processing system of this embodiment, in addition to the coupon provider, it is possible to display more various advertisements according to additional information related to the coupon. Hereinafter, the same elements as those in the first embodiment described above are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the corresponding elements are denoted by “A” at the end of the reference numerals. Further, the description overlapping with the first embodiment described above will be omitted or simplified as appropriate.

In the present embodiment, the service server 10A includes a coupon management database 13A and an advertisement management database 15A instead of the coupon management database 13 and the advertisement management database 15.
FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the configuration of the coupon management database 13A.
The coupon management database 13A has a configuration in which information specifying a coupon provider and additional information are associated with each of a plurality of coupon information. Here, the additional information includes information for identifying each of the user attribute, the coupon format, the expiration date, the issue date, the offer date, the offer location, the issue amount, and the offer amount. The user attribute is an attribute of a user to whom a coupon is provided. Examples of user attributes include age, gender, nationality, and the like. Here, the form of the coupon indicates one of an electronic coupon (shown as “electronic” in FIG. 11) and the actual product. The expiration date indicates a time limit during which the coupon can be used. The issue time indicates the time when a coupon (coupon bundle) is issued by the service provider S. The provision time indicates the time when the coupon is provided to the customer from the coupon provider, in other words, the time when the customer obtains the coupon. The provision location indicates the location where the coupon is provided to the customer from the coupon provider, in other words, the location when the customer obtains the coupon. Among the additional information, each information of the user attribute, the coupon format, the expiration date, the issue date, the provision time, and the provision location corresponds to information indicating the coupon attribute.

The issued amount indicates the amount of coupons (here, the number of issued items) constituting the issued coupon bundle. The provided amount indicates the amount (here, the number of provided items) of the coupon provided to the customer among the coupons constituting the issued coupon bundle.
Each piece of information in the coupon management database 13A is registered in the coupon management database 13A at an appropriate timing, for example, when a coupon is issued or when a coupon is provided to a customer.
In addition, in the coupon management database 13A, all additional information may not be registered for all coupons. Unnecessary information or information that cannot be specified may be blank as shown by "-" in FIG.

  Here, an example of a method for creating (updating) the coupon management database 13A will be described. When selling a coupon bundle from the service provider S to the coupon provider, the service server 10A classifies the coupons of the coupon bundle in advance for each additional information, and creates the coupon management database 13A based on the classification. . In this case, the coupon provider provides the target coupon to a customer such as a visitor after grasping the attributes of the customer. On the other hand, when selling a coupon from the service provider S to the coupon provider, there is a method in which the coupons in the coupon bundle are not classified in advance for each additional information. In that case, when a coupon provider provides a coupon to a customer such as a store visitor, the partner's attribute is grasped and registered in the provider server 30 as additional information. In this case, the service server 10A acquires coupon information and additional information associated with the coupon information by communicating with the provider server 30.

FIG. 12 is a diagram showing the configuration of the advertisement management database 15A.
The advertisement management database 15A has a configuration in which additional information and advertisement data are associated with each other for each of a plurality of coupon providers. The additional information includes a user attribute, a coupon format, an expiration date, an issue time, a provision time, and a provision place. That is, a plurality of advertisement data are prepared for each coupon provider, not one. The advertisement data to be transmitted is determined according to one or more of the user attribute, the coupon format, the expiration date, the issue time, the provision time, and the provision place.
The association between the additional information and the advertisement data in the advertisement management database 15A is typically determined by the coupon provider who is the advertiser. For example, the service server 10 acquires advertisement data and additional information associated with the advertisement data by communicating with the provider server 30.

  FIG. 13 is a block diagram illustrating functional configurations of the service server 10A and the client device 20A. The difference from the first embodiment described above is that the service server 10A includes an update unit 105 and a determination unit 106 and an advertisement data transmission unit 104A, and the client device 20A includes an advertisement data reception unit 205A and The point is provided with an advertisement display unit 206A.

  The update unit 105 updates the coupon management database 13A and the advertisement management database 15A. The update unit 105 communicates with the provider server 30 to acquire a combination of coupon information and additional information associated with the coupon information, and registers it in the coupon management database 13A. Further, the update unit 105 acquires a combination of the advertisement data and additional information associated with the advertisement data, and registers it in the advertisement management database 15A. The update unit 105 is realized by the control unit 11 and the communication unit 12.

The determination unit 106 realizes functions corresponding to the advertisement data determination unit 1061 and the display mode determination unit 1062. The advertisement data determination unit 1061 acquires additional information related to the coupon specified by the coupon information received by the coupon information reception unit 101. Then, the advertisement data determination unit 1061 selects advertisement data associated with the acquired additional information from one or more pieces of advertisement data associated with the coupon information received by the coupon information reception unit 101 in the advertisement management database 15A. , And decide to send. Specifically, the advertisement data determination unit 1061 identifies a coupon provider and additional information associated with coupon information in the coupon management database 13A, and is associated with the coupon provider and additional information in the advertisement management database 15A. The advertisement data is determined as a transmission target.
In addition, although the determination part 106 performs the identification of the coupon provider linked | related with the coupon information in this embodiment, this identification may be performed by 104 A of advertisement data transmission parts.

  The display mode determination unit 1062 acquires additional information related to the coupon specified by the coupon information received by the coupon information reception unit 101. Then, the display mode determination unit 1062 determines the display mode of the advertisement represented by the advertisement data based on this additional information. The display mode of the advertisement is, for example, the display position, the advertisement, the size of the advertisement display area, or the display frequency. The advertisement data determination unit 1061 and the display mode determination unit 1062 are realized by the control unit 11.

The advertisement data transmission unit 104A transmits the advertisement data determined as a target to be transmitted by the advertisement data determination unit 1061 to the client device 20A so as to be displayed in the display mode determined by the display mode determination unit 1062.
In the client device 20A, the advertisement data receiving unit 205A receives advertisement data from the service server 10A. When the Wi-Fi service is used by the client device 20, the advertisement display unit 206A displays the advertisement represented by the received advertisement data in the determined display mode.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.
FIG. 14 is a sequence chart showing processing executed by the information processing system according to the present embodiment. Each process of step S1-S11 is the same as 1st Embodiment mentioned above.
Next, the service server 10A acquires additional information related to the coupon specified by the coupon information received in step S6, and from among one or more advertisement data associated with the coupon information in the advertisement management database 15A, The advertisement data associated with the additional information is determined as a transmission target (step S21). Here, 10 A of service servers acquire the coupon provider linked | related with the received coupon information, and additional information in the coupon management database 13A. Further, the service server 10A determines, in the advertisement management database 15A, advertisement data associated with the acquired additional information as a transmission target from among one or more advertisement data associated with the coupon provider. Here, advertisement data shall be determined according to the attribute of a coupon. For example, it is as follows.

(A) User attributes The service server 10A has user attributes such as for 10 to 20 generations, for 30 to 40 generations, for 50 to 60 generations, for men, for women, for Japanese people, and for foreigners. The advertisement data to be transmitted is determined so that a suitable advertisement is displayed. Of course, the service server 10A may determine a target for transmitting advertisement data according to the combination of a plurality of types of user attributes such as for men in their 10s and 20s.

(B) Coupon format When the coupon format is an electronic coupon, it is considered that the customer has obtained this coupon using the client device 20. For this reason, it is estimated that customers are relatively accustomed to using online shopping sites. Therefore, the service server 10A determines, for example, as a target to transmit advertisement data representing an advertisement of a campaign executed at an online shopping site. On the other hand, when the coupon format is actual, it is considered that the user U has obtained the coupon at the actual store. Therefore, the service server 10A determines, for example, as an object for transmitting advertisement data representing an advertisement of a campaign executed in a real store.

(C) Coupon expiration date If the current time is within the coupon expiration date, the service server 10A is a target for transmitting advertising data representing a store where the coupon can be used and an advertisement for guiding the content of the coupon. Determine as. When the current time point is after the expiration date of the coupon or immediately before the expiration date, the service server 10A can obtain a new coupon that is currently provided, and advertisement data representing an advertisement for guiding the content of the coupon. Is determined as a target to be transmitted.
In addition, 10 A of service servers may set the start of the effective period of a coupon to the provision time of a coupon. This is because the time when the coupon information is input by the customer may be the start of the valid period of the coupon, but this time cannot be controlled by the service provider S side. For this reason, after the expiration date of the coupon, for the purpose of encouraging the customer to visit the store to obtain the coupon, the start date of the effective period of the coupon is set to the provision time of the coupon.

(D) Coupon issue time or provision time For example, when the user U visits a real store at a certain date and time, the possibility of visiting the same date and time after the next time is considered higher than other dates and times. . Therefore, the service server 10A determines, for example, advertisement data representing an advertisement as a transmission target in a campaign executed on the same day of the week as the coupon issuance time or provision time. When the coupon provided according to time differs, service server 10A may determine as a target which transmits advertising data according to the time. For example, when the coupon provider operates a restaurant, department store, etc., the service server 10A displays an advertisement related to lunch or cafe in the case of a coupon provided during the day, and dinner related in the case of a coupon provided at night. It is a target to send advertisement data representing advertisements at.

  The service server 10A may vary the advertisement data to be transmitted in each period related to the coupon issue time or the offer time. For example, if the period from when the coupon is issued or provided until when the coupon is used or when the service of the service provider S is used is short, or another coupon is provided again after the coupon expires If the period until it is completed is short, you can expect to visit a store for the purpose of obtaining coupons. Therefore, the service server 10 </ b> A is determined as a target for transmitting advertisement data representing an advertisement related to an actual store providing a coupon.

(E) Coupon provision location The service server 10A represents, for example, an advertisement representing an advertisement such as a commercial facility related to a coupon provider near the location where the coupon is provided, or an event provided by the coupon provider near the location. It is determined as an object to send data.

Returning to FIG.
Next, the service server 10A determines the display mode of the advertisement represented by the advertisement data determined as the transmission target (step S22). Here, the service server 10 </ b> A determines the display mode of the advertisement in accordance with the issued amount or provided amount of the coupon among the additional information. For example, a coupon provider having a large amount of coupons issued is estimated to be a customer for the service provider. Therefore, the service server 10A displays the advertisement in a more easily viewable manner as the coupon issuance amount increases. For example, the service server 10A increases the number of advertisements, increases the number of advertisements, enlarges the advertisement display area, or increases the frequency of display as the coupon issuance amount increases to a position with higher priority than other advertisements (for example, at the top of the screen). To do. The display mode may be determined by the above method based on the provided amount instead of or in combination with the issued amount. Further, the service server 10A may change the language used for displaying the advertisement depending on the nationality of the customer, and transmits the result of translating the language stored as the advertisement data into the language corresponding to the nationality to display the advertisement. May be.

  Then, the service server 10A transmits the advertisement data determined in step S21 to the client device 20 together with control data for controlling the advertisement to be displayed in the display mode determined in step S22 (step S23).

  When the client device 20 receives the advertisement data and the control data (step S24), the client device 20 displays the advertisement represented by the received advertisement data in the display mode according to the control data on the login screen (step S25).

FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating an example of a login screen displayed on the client device 20A.
In the login screen SC4 of FIG. 15 (A), since the coupon issue amount (or offer amount) of the coupon provider X is relatively large, the advertisement display area T4 where the advertisement of the coupon provider X is displayed is more than the other person's advertisement. Is also displayed at the top of the screen and in a large size. On the other hand, in the login screen SC5 of FIG. 15B, since the coupon issue amount (or offer amount) of the coupon provider Y is relatively small, the advertisement display area T5 in which the advertisement of the coupon provider Y is displayed is the other party. It is displayed at the bottom of the screen and in a smaller size than the advertisement.

  According to the information processing system of the second embodiment described above, it is possible to display more various advertisements by combining additional information related to coupons.

[Third Embodiment]
The information processing system according to the present embodiment enables display of more various advertisements according to the usage status of advertisements by users or the usage status of services in addition to coupon providers. Hereinafter, the same elements as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the corresponding elements are denoted by “B” at the end of the reference numerals. Further, the description overlapping with the first embodiment described above will be omitted or simplified as appropriate.

In the present embodiment, the service server 10B includes an account management database 14B and an advertisement management database 15B instead of the account management database 14 and the advertisement management database 15.
FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a configuration of the account management database 14B. The account management database 14B has a configuration in which account information, advertisement usage status, and service usage status are associated with each of a plurality of coupon information. The advertisement usage status indicates the usage status of the advertisement, and is determined according to the access destination information indicated by the access destination information associated with the advertisement that is selected and viewed, for example, on the login screen. Here, the service usage status indicates the usage status of the Wi-Fi service, for example, the number of times the Wi-Fi service has been used (eg, logged in).
The account management database 14B is updated sequentially by the service server 10B.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram showing a configuration of the advertisement management database 15B. The advertisement management database 15B has a configuration in which advertisement data is associated with an advertisement usage status and a service usage status for each of a plurality of coupon providers. As the advertisement usage status, for example, there is a usage status indicating a field of frequently used advertising such as “I am interested in computers” and “I am interested in musical instruments”. As the service usage status, for example, there are usage statuses of “less than 10 times” and “10 to 20 times”.

FIG. 18 is a block diagram illustrating functional configurations of the service server 10B and the client device 20. The difference from the first embodiment described above is that the service server 10B includes the specifying unit 107 and the determining unit 108 and the advertisement data transmitting unit 104B.
The identifying unit 107 identifies the usage status of advertisements by the user or the usage status of services. Here, the specifying unit 107 specifies the usage status of the advertisement based on the service data, and specifies the usage status of the service by counting the number of times of login. The identifying unit 107 registers the identified result in the account management database 14B in association with the account information of the corresponding user.

In the advertisement management database 15B, the determination unit 108 uses the advertisement usage status or the service usage status analyzed by the specifying unit 107 from one or more pieces of advertisement data associated with the coupon information received by the coupon information receiving unit 101. The advertisement data corresponding to is determined and sent as an object to be transmitted. Specifically, the determination unit 108 identifies the coupon provider associated with the coupon information in the coupon management database 13, and in the advertisement management database 15B, determines the coupon provider and the advertisement usage status or service usage status. The associated advertisement data is determined as the advertisement data to be transmitted.
In addition, although the determination part 108 is performing the identification of the coupon provider linked | related with the coupon information in this embodiment, this specification may be performed by the advertisement data transmission part 104B.

  The advertisement data transmission unit 104 </ b> B transmits the advertisement data determined as a target to be transmitted by the determination unit 108 to the client device 20.
