By doing so, various payments can be realized. Note that electronic money may be, for example, points or currency used independently by various companies, or may be currency provided by a country such as Japanese yen or dollars that can be electronically transacted. good.

The payment server 10 also provides a service related to posting. The payment server 10 provides a posting reception service that accepts posts from users, and an information provision service that provides various information such as posted information posted by users. The payment server 10 determines whether or not to accept a user's post regarding a predetermined subject based on payment information related to a user's payment at a store that allows payment using an electronic payment service. Further, the payment server 10 provides provision information according to the determination result of whether or not to accept the post. For example, the payment server 10 transmits provision information that changes depending on the determination result to the user terminal 100 used by the user.

The information providing service may be any service that provides desired information such as posted information posted by users. For example, the information providing service may be a service such as an SNS (Social Networking Service), a blog, a micro blog, or a word-of-mouth site. For example, the information providing service may be provided to the user by an application installed on the user terminal 100 that provides the information providing service. Note that the information provision service may be a service performed by an application (mini app) that is started within an electronic payment application (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as a "payment application") using the user terminal 100. good.

Note that, for the sake of explanation, in FIG. 1, an example will be described in which a device that provides an electronic payment service and a device that provides a service related to posting are integrated; however, the information processing system 1 can have any device configuration. Adoptable. For example, the payment server 10 that provides the electronic payment service is not limited to a device configuration in which the payment server 10 provides posting-related services such as accepting postings from users, and the server device that provides posting-related services is an information processing device separate from the payment server. The device configuration may be as follows. In this case, the information processing device that provides the posting-related service may use the information acquired from the payment server to perform a process of determining whether to accept postings from users. Note that the device configuration described above is only an example, and the information processing system 1 can adopt any device configuration as long as it can realize desired functions such as an electronic payment service and a service related to posting.

The user terminal 100 shown in FIG. 1 is an information processing device used by a user. The user terminal 100 is realized by, for example, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a notebook PC (Personal Computer), a desktop PC, a mobile phone, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), or the like. Further, the user terminal 100 displays information distributed by the payment server 10 using a web browser or an application. Note that the example shown in FIG. 1 shows a case where the user terminal 100 is a smartphone. In this case, the user terminal 100 receives user operations using the touch panel function. For example, the user terminal 100 accepts various operations from the user using a user's finger or a dedicated pen. The user terminal 100 transmits request information requesting information according to the user's operation to an external device such as the payment server 10. The user terminal 100 displays information received from an external device such as the payment server 10.

Further, the user terminal 100 may have a position sensor such as a GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor, and may be capable of acquiring the user's position. The user terminal 100 may store the user's position at the time of payment in the storage unit in association with the payment, or may transmit the location to another information processing device such as the payment server 10. For example, the user terminal 100 may transmit information on the user's location at the time of payment to another information processing device such as the payment server 10 together with payment information to be described later. Note that the user terminal 100 may acquire the user's position information in any manner as long as the user terminal 100 can acquire the user's position information. For example, a user who uses the user terminal 100 may wear a wearable device that can communicate with the user terminal 100, so that the position of the user may be detected by the wearable device. In this case, the user terminal 100 may acquire information on the user's position from a wearable device, and does not need to have a position sensor. Note that the above is an example, and the user terminal 100 may acquire the information on the user's location by various means.

Note that when the user terminal 100 receives control information for realizing predetermined information processing from the payment server 10, the user terminal 100 realizes the information processing according to the control information. Here, the control information is, for example, a script language such as JavaScript (registered trademark), a style sheet language such as CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), a programming language such as Java (registered trademark), or a mark such as HTML (HyperText Markup Language). It is written in an application language, etc. Note that the predetermined application itself distributed from the payment server 10 may be regarded as the control information.

The store terminal 200 shown in FIG. 1 is an information processing device used in a store that provides transactions to users. The store terminal 200 is realized by, for example, a POS (Point of Sales) terminal, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a notebook PC, a desktop PC, a mobile phone, a PDA, or the like. Further, the store terminal 200 displays information distributed by the payment server 10 using a web browser or an application.

For example, the store terminal 200 manages product information such as the name of the product and the price of the product by linking it to information indicated by a barcode attached to the product (identification information (product ID) for identifying the product). You may.

[1-1. About payment using user terminal 100]
Here, prior to information processing performed by the payment server 10, an example of payment (electronic payment) using the user terminal 100 will be described. In the following explanation, a two-dimensional code (QR code (registered trademark)) placed at store A, which is an example of a store, and indicating store identification information for identifying store A, will be used. An example in which the user U performs payment using the user terminal 100 will be described, but the embodiment is not limited to this. For example, in FIG. 1, a case where payment information is transmitted to the payment server 10 from the store terminal 200 that has acquired information necessary for payment from the user terminal 100 will be described as an example. In this manner, in the payment processing in the information processing system 1, either the user terminal 100 or the store terminal 200 may be the entity communicating with the payment server 10 regarding the payment processing. An example of a payment described below can be applied to a case where any user makes a payment at any store using any user terminal 100. Further, the store identification information may be not only a QR code but also a bar code, a predetermined mark, a number, etc.

For example, when user U makes a payment for the use or purchase of payment objects (transaction objects) such as various products and services at store A, user U uses the payment application pre-installed on the user terminal 100. to start. Then, the user U photographs the store identification information installed at the store A via the payment application. In such a case, the user terminal 100 displays a screen for inputting the price to be paid, and accepts input of the payment amount from the user U or the store clerk at the store A. Then, the user terminal 100 stores user identification information that identifies user U and store identification information (or information indicated by the store identification information, that is, information indicating store A (or the business operator of store A) (for example, , store ID)) and the payment amount are sent to the payment server 10.

In such a case, the payment server 10 transfers the amount of electronic money indicated by the payment amount from the account of the user U indicated by the user identification information to the account of the store A indicated by the store identification information. The payment server 10 then sends a notification to the user terminal 100 that the payment has been completed. In such a case, the user terminal 100 notifies that the payment has been made using electronic money by displaying a screen or outputting a predetermined sound indicating that the payment has been completed.

A more detailed example will be explained. For example, the store identification information installed at store A is a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) set for each store, and includes group identification information that indicates the group to which store A belongs, and a group that identifies store A within that group. It is linked to the store identification information and managed so that the payment server 10 can refer to it. Note that the URL serving as the store identification information is the URL for accessing the payment server 10. When the user terminal 100 photographs the store identification information, it accesses the URL indicated by the photographed store identification information and transmits the user identification information. In such a case, the payment server 10 identifies the group identification information that corresponds to the accessed URL, and stores the electronic money account (which may be displayed as a "wallet") that is linked to the identified group identification information. Identify. Subsequently, the payment server 10 causes the user terminal 100 to display an amount input screen and input the amount. Then, the payment server 10 identifies group identification information from the wallet linked to the user identification information received from the user terminal 100, and inputs the input information to the wallet linked to the identified group identification information. transfer the amount of electronic money. Note that the payment server 10 may transfer the electronic money to a wallet linked to the group identification information and group store identification information.

Note that payment using the user terminal 100 is not limited to the processing described above. For example, the payment using the user terminal 100 may be made using the store terminal 200 installed in the store A. For example, the user terminal 100 displays user identification information for identifying the user U on the screen. In such a case, the store terminal 200 installed in the store A reads the user identification information displayed on the user terminal 100, and reads the user identification information (or the information indicated by the user identification information, that is, the user Payment information indicating information indicating U (for example, user ID), the payment amount, and information identifying store A is transmitted to the payment server 10. In such a case, the payment server 10 transfers the amount of electronic money indicated by the payment amount from the account of the user U indicated by the user identification information to the account of the store A, and transfers the amount of electronic money indicated by the payment amount to the store terminal 200 of the store A or the user U's account. The fact that the payment has been completed may be notified by causing the terminal 100 to output a screen or a predetermined sound indicating that the payment has been completed.

More specifically, the user terminal 100 transmits a payment request to the payment server 10 along with user identification information. In such a case, the payment server 10 generates a one-time code, associates the generated one-time code with user identification information, and transmits the one-time code to the user terminal 100. Then, the user terminal 100 displays a one-time code (ie, information that identifies the user) on the screen. In such a case, upon reading the one-time code displayed on the user terminal 100, the store terminal 200 transmits the read one-time code, group identification information, group store identification information, and payment amount to the payment server 10. . Then, the payment server 10 transfers electronic money equivalent to the payment amount from the wallet linked to the user identification information linked to the one-time code to the wallet linked to the group identification information and group store identification information.

In addition, the payment using the user terminal 100 is not limited to the process of transferring electronic money from the account to which the user U has charged electronic money in advance to the store A's account, but also uses a credit card registered in advance by the user U, for example. Payment may be made using In such a case, for example, the user terminal 100 transfers the electronic money of the payment amount to the store A's account, and requests the payment amount from the operating company (card company) of the user U's credit card. You may.

[1-2. About the overview of the embodiment]
The information processing system 1 is capable of performing various information processing on the premise of payment using the user terminal 100 as described above. For example, the information processing system 1 determines whether or not to accept a user's post regarding a predetermined subject based on information regarding the user's payment at a store that allows payment using an electronic payment service (also referred to as "payment information"). This allows us to provide posting-related services. Note that the predetermined object may be various objects related to payment using electronic payment services, such as the store where the user made the payment, the transaction object such as the product or service that was the object of the payment, etc. You may also specify the subject to be posted, but this point will be discussed later.

The payment server 10 executes information processing according to the embodiment in order to provide a service related to posting. Information processing executed by the payment server 10 will be described below using FIG. 1. In addition, in FIG. 1, restaurant X will be explained as an example of a store such as store A described above. Further, in FIG. 1, an example will be explained in which the user who uses the user terminal 100 is the user U1, but the user is not limited to the user U1, but may be any user who uses a service related to posting. Good too. In the following description, the user terminal 100 may be equated with the user who uses the user terminal 100. That is, in the following, a user can also be read as the user terminal 100 used by the user.

Furthermore, in the following description, an example will be shown in which the store terminal 200 is used by a manager (such as a clerk) M1 who manages restaurant X. Furthermore, in the following description, the store terminal 200 may be equated with the manager M1. That is, in the following, the manager M1 can also be read as the store terminal 200. In addition, Restaurant It may be a store that does.

First, the user U1 who visits the restaurant X and eats and drinks at the restaurant X executes payment using the user terminal 100 described above. In the example of FIG. 1, it is assumed that the user U1 wishes to make the above-mentioned payment to the restaurant X, which is performed by the store terminal 200 reading the user identification information (user ID). do. In this case, the manager M1 reads the user ID of the user U1 displayed on the user terminal 100 using the store terminal 200 (step S1). For example, the store terminal 200 reads the user ID displayed on the user terminal 100 using a barcode reader or the like during checkout. The manager M1 also operates the store terminal 200 to input the total amount of food and drink into the store terminal 200.

Then, the payment server 10 acquires payment information from the store terminal 200 (step S2). For example, the payment server 10 sends payment information to the store terminal including the store ID of the restaurant Obtained from 200. Note that the above is just an example, and as described above, the processing mode is such that the user terminal 100 reads the store identification information located at the restaurant X, and the user terminal 100 sends the payment information to the payment server 10. There may be.

The payment server 10 then executes payment processing based on the payment information acquired from the store terminal 200 (step S3). For example, the payment server 10 transfers the amount of electronic money indicated by the payment amount from the account of the user U1 indicated by the user ID to the account of restaurant X indicated by the store ID.

Further, the payment server 10 determines whether or not to accept a post regarding a predetermined transaction object from the user based on the payment information (step S4). For example, the payment server 10 determines whether or not to accept a post regarding the restaurant X by the user U1, based on payment information regarding the payment by the user U1 at the restaurant X, which is a store that allows payment using an electronic payment service. If the predetermined object is included in the payment information as a payment object by the electronic payment service, the payment server 10 determines that a post regarding the predetermined object by the user U1 can be accepted. Further, if the predetermined object is not included in the payment information as a payment object by the electronic payment service, the payment server 10 determines that posting regarding the predetermined object by the user U1 will not be accepted. In FIG. 1, the payment server 10 can accept posts related to restaurant X because user U1 is making a payment using the electronic payment service at restaurant X, and restaurant X is included in the payment information of user U1. Decided to.

Then, the payment server 10 provides the information to be provided according to the determination result of whether or not to accept the post regarding the predetermined object (step S5). For example, when the payment server 10 determines that posts related to restaurant X can be accepted, it provides provision information for accepting posts related to restaurant X by user U1. When the payment server 10 determines that posts related to restaurant X cannot be accepted, it provides provision information that does not accept posts related to restaurant X by user U1.

As described above, the payment server 10 determines whether or not to accept a user's post regarding a predetermined subject based on the payment information regarding the user's payment at a store that allows payment using an electronic payment service. It is possible to appropriately decide whether or not to accept the application. As described above, the payment server 10 allows users whose use of the payment object can be identified based on the payment information of the electronic payment service to post about the payment object, thereby improving the credibility of the posted content. It is possible to increase the reliability of posts such as Therefore, the payment server 10 can improve the quality of service related to posting. Thereby, the payment server 10 can increase the satisfaction level of users who receive posting-related services.

In FIG. 1, the payment server 10 has determined to be able to accept posts about the restaurant X by the user U1, and therefore provides provision information for accepting posts about the restaurant X by the user U1. For example, the payment server 10 provides provision information SC1 as shown in FIG. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of provision information provided to a user. For example, the payment server 10 provides provision information SC1 that includes reception content CT1 that accepts posts regarding restaurant X by user U1. In FIG. 2, the payment server 10 provides provision information SC1, which is a payment completion screen regarding restaurant X, including reception content CT1.

In FIG. 2, provision information SC1 is a share button for accepting posts by user U1, along with information indicating the payment amount (payment amount) at restaurant X and information indicating that the payment has been completed. Includes reception content CT1. The accepted content CT1 is information for allowing submissions by the user U1 to be accepted. The payment server 10 transmits the provision information SC1 including the received content CT1 to the user terminal 100 used by the user U1. Note that, when the payment server 10 determines that postings regarding the restaurant X by the user U1 cannot be accepted, the payment server 10 provides the user U1 with a payment completion screen regarding the restaurant X that does not include the accepted content CT1 as provision information.

Note that the above is just an example, and the payment server 10 may decide whether or not a user can post based on various information. The payment server 10 may decide whether or not the user U1 can post based on the user U1's action history. For example, the payment server 10 may determine whether or not the user U1 can post based on the reliability of the user U1 calculated based on the user U1's behavior history. For example, the payment server 10 may check the number of times user U1 has used restaurant The reliability of the user U1 may be calculated based on information such as. For example, the payment server 10 may increase the reliability of the user U1 when the user U1 uses restaurant X during a certain period of time. For example, the payment server 10 may lower the reliability of the user U1 if a past post by the user U1 includes a violation or describes information that is different from the facts. If the reliability of the user U1 is lower than a predetermined threshold, the payment server 10 may determine that the post by the user U1 cannot be accepted.

The user terminal 100 that has received the provision information SC1 including the received content CT1 displays the provision information SC1 including the received content CT1. The user terminal 100 displays the provision information SC2 as shown in FIG. 2 when the user U1 specifies (selects) the accepted content CT1 in the provision information SC1 displayed on the screen. For example, when the user U1 touches the area of the screen in which the received content CT1 is displayed with a finger, the user terminal 100 displays the provision information SC2, which is posting information that accepts posting input. For example, when the user U1 specifies the accepted content CT1, the user terminal 100 may request the provision information SC2 from the payment server 10. In this case, the payment server 10 transmits the provision information SC2 to the user terminal 100 in response to the request, and the user terminal 100 that has received the provision information SC2 displays the provision information SC2.

The provision information SC2 includes information indicating the payment amount (settlement amount) at the restaurant Contains contents CT20 to CT23. In FIG. 2, the user terminal 100 displays provision information SC2 including posting contents CT20 to CT23. For example, the posting content CT20 is a posting button for transmitting information regarding posting to the payment server 10.

Further, the posting content CT21 is used to make a main selection. For example, the posting content CT21 is used to select either an appeal regarding a store (store appeal) or an appeal regarding a transaction object such as a purchased product (purchased product appeal). For example, the posting content CT21 may be a combo box for selecting either store appeal or purchased product appeal.

Further, the posting content CT22 is used to select posting items. For example, the posting content CT22 is used to select only the store, store + price, or store + price + detailed breakdown. For example, the posting content CT22 may be a combo box for selecting only the store, store + price, or store + price + detailed breakdown. In this way, the posting content CT22 is information for receiving the user's designation of the posting target. Note that the above item selection is only an example, and the selectable items may include items that do not include stores. For example, the posting content CT22 may accept selections of only a transaction object such as a selectively purchased product, a transaction object + amount, etc. as posting items.

Further, the posting content CT23 is used for a user to write (input) a comment. For example, when the posting content CT23 is designated (selected) by the user, it accepts input of a comment by the user. In FIG. 2, the user U selects store promotion in the posting content CT21, selects the store + amount in the posting content CT22, and inputs "The hamburger was delicious!" in the posting content CT23. shows.

When the user U1 specifies (selects) the posting content CT20 in the provision information SC2 displayed on the screen, the user terminal 100 sends information about posting about restaurant X (posting information) to the payment server 10. Send. For example, the user terminal 100 transmits information input by the user U1 to the posting contents CT21 to CT23 and the like and information regarding payment as posting information to the payment server 10. In FIG. 2, the user terminal 100 determines that regarding a post by user U1 about restaurant Posted information indicating this is sent to the payment server 10. Thereby, the payment server 10 receives the posted information for the restaurant X by the user U1, and registers (stores) the posted information for the restaurant X in the posted information database 32 in association with the user U1.

Furthermore, when the user U1 specifies (selects) the posting content CT20 in the providing information SC2 displayed on the screen, the user terminal 100 displays the providing information SC3 as shown in FIG. 2. The user terminal 100 displays provision information SC3 which is confirmation information (preview) for confirming the content posted by the user U1. The provision information SC3 includes information indicating that the payment target is restaurant X, information indicating the payment amount (payment amount), and the comment input by the user U1, "The hamburger was delicious!" Confirmation content CT3 is included.

For example, when the user U1 specifies the posting content CT20, the user terminal 100 may request the payment server 10 to provide the provision information SC3. In this case, the payment server 10 transmits the provision information SC3 to the user terminal 100 in response to the request, and the user terminal 100 that has received the provision information SC3 displays the provision information SC3. Note that the provision information SC3 may be a confirmation screen before posting is completed. In this case, the provision information SC3 includes a confirmation button displayed as "confirm", etc., and the user terminal 100 selects the confirmation button in the provision information SC3 by the user U1. The payment server 10 sends information requesting confirmation of posting of posted information about the payment server 10. When the payment server 10 receives the information requesting confirmation of posting of the posted information about the restaurant X, it registers (stores) the posted information about the restaurant X in the posted information database 32 in association with the user U1. It's okay. At this time, if purchased product appeal is selected instead of store appeal as the posted appeal content, it may be registered in the posted information database 32 as posted information for the purchased product in association with user U1. good.

Further, the provision information SC4 includes a list of posted information posted by the user U1, as shown in posted contents CT41 to CT43 and the like. For example, posted content CT41 corresponds to posted information about restaurant X posted by user U1 in the example shown in FIG. The provision information SC4 is provided to the user terminal 100 that requests viewing of the post by the user U1. The user terminal 100 that has received the provided information SC4 displays the received provided information SC4. For example, when payment server 10 receives a request to view a post by user U1 from user terminal 100, payment server 10 transmits provision information SC4 to user terminal 100 that made the request. For example, when payment server 10 receives a request to view a post by user U1 from user terminal 100 used by user U2, payment server 10 transmits provision information SC4 to user terminal 100 used by user U2.

As described above, the information processing system 1 allows users to post and accepts posts only about stores that they have actually used or transaction objects that they have purchased based on payment information. By providing information on the received posts, the information processing system 1 can provide information only on highly reliable posts. In this way, the information processing system 1 can increase the credibility of the content of the post by determining whether to post based on the user's payment information.

Further, in the example described above, a case was shown in which a user's post is accepted when providing a completion screen, but the information processing system 1 may accept a post at any timing. For example, the information processing system 1 may accept posts within a predetermined period of time after payment. For example, the information processing system 1 may determine the length of a predetermined period depending on the details of the payment, and may accept posts within the determined predetermined period. For example, the information processing system 1 may determine the length of the predetermined period depending on the transaction object for which payment is to be made. For example, if the transaction object for which payment is made is an object that is expected to be used continuously after payment, such as a vacuum cleaner, the information processing system 1 may set the length of the predetermined period to one week, one month, etc. may be determined. For example, the information processing system 1 may increase the length of the predetermined period as the amount of payment increases. Further, the predetermined period during which the store appeal and purchased product appeal can be selected as the appeal target may be changed. This is because in the case of a store, users can post immediately after using the product, but with purchased products, it is possible to post after using the product for a certain period of time. If the period in which store appeals can be accepted has passed, but purchased product appeals are still available, only purchased product appeals can be selected as an option when posting.
