Description

The present invention relates to a privilege management system, a privilege management device, a mobile terminal and a privilege management method, and is particularly suitable for use in a privilege management system, a privilege management device and a privilege management method for managing a privilege given to a user. ..

In recent years, it has become widespread to give users benefits such as points and coupons. In addition, various technologies have been proposed as technologies for granting and managing such benefits. For example, in Patent Document 1, in a system configured to be able to display coupon information that can be used in a store on terminal devices 3 provided in various places, depending on the distance between the store and the terminal device 3. , The larger the distance, the greater the degree (rate) of the coupon benefits, and as a result, the technology that gives the user an incentive to go to the store that is farther away and harder to visit is described. ..

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2013-145520

By the way, regarding the granting of a privilege, when the user performs a predetermined action in a predetermined area, the privilege that can be used only in the predetermined area is given to the user. For example, in a wide area having a plurality of stores such as a shopping district or a commercial complex, or in a limited narrow area such as a specific store or a specific facility, a user can use the product. When an action such as a purchase is performed, a privilege that can be used only in that area is given. By granting the privilege in such a manner, it is possible to give the user an incentive to take an action to obtain the privilege and an incentive to visit the area again, which leads to the activation of the area.

However, in this case, in an area where the user is very unlikely to visit again, such as an area visited by the user, even if the benefit is granted, there is a high possibility that the benefit will not be used, and the benefit is granted. However, there was a problem that it was difficult to provide an incentive to take action to obtain benefits. This problem can be solved by coordinating in multiple different areas so that common benefits can be used in multiple different areas, or by using a benefit program related to benefits that can be used in various places. There is also. However, in this case, after granting the privilege in a certain area, the privilege can be used in a place other than that area with the same value as that area, so that the granting of the privilege is unlikely to be an incentive to visit the area again. There is.

The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, provides an incentive for a user who is unlikely to return to the area to take an action to obtain a privilege, and visits the area again. The purpose is to provide appropriate incentives to users who can return to the area.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention grants a privilege that can be used not only in the predetermined area but also in a place other than the predetermined area when the user performs a predetermined action in the predetermined area. .. Then, for the benefits granted to the user in the specified area, the rate of the benefits is adjusted so that the rate will be higher when the user is staying in the specified area than when not staying. I try to do it.

According to the present invention configured as described above, when a user performs a predetermined action for which a privilege is granted in a predetermined area, the privilege that can be used only in the predetermined area for the user However, since the privilege that can be used in a place other than the predetermined area is given, it is possible to give an incentive to take an action to obtain the privilege even to a user who is unlikely to visit the area again. On top of that, according to the above configuration, the privilege given to the user in the predetermined area is the most advantageous (profitable) for the user when used in the predetermined area, not in a place other than the predetermined area. Therefore, the user who can visit the area again can be appropriately given an incentive to visit the area to which the privilege is given.

It is a system that gives users and manages the dedicated points that they have given. In the present embodiment, the dedicated points are points that can be used as a substitute for cash at stores such as retail stores, restaurants, and service providers. In particular, dedicated points are not points that can be used only in a limited range such as a specific shopping district, a specific facility (for example, a shopping center), a specific store, etc., but an area nationwide or across multiple prefectures, etc. It can be used in common at stores scattered in a fairly wide area. The stores where the exclusive points can be used are determined in advance after the contract is properly made. The unit of the dedicated point is "pt", and it can be used as 1 pt = 1 yen.

Further, in the present embodiment, a specific business operator implements a function on the privilege management server 2, develops and provides an application that can be installed on the user terminal 3, and provides a dedicated point and various services related to the mission described later. I will provide a. Hereinafter, the specific business operator is referred to as a "service provider".

The user terminal 3 is a portable terminal owned by the user. In the present embodiment, the user means a user who has registered to receive various services provided by the service provider. Further, in the present embodiment, the user terminal 3 is a tablet terminal (for example, a smartphone or a tablet computer) in which the touch panel 3a is provided in a wide area on the front surface of the plate-shaped housing. However, the user terminal 3 may be any device that can execute various processes described later, and for example, a notebook computer or a wearable terminal (for example, a wristwatch-type wearable terminal) can be used as the user terminal 3. An application provided by a service provider (hereinafter referred to as a "dedicated application") is installed on the user terminal 3. The functions of the dedicated application will be described later.

The mission registrant terminal 4 is a terminal used by a mission registrant when registering a mission. Mission registrants and missions will be described later. The mission registrant terminal 4 may be in any form as long as it is a device capable of executing various processes described later. For example, a desktop computer, a notebook computer, or a portable computer can be used as the mission registrant terminal 4. .. In this embodiment, the user terminal 3 and the mission registrant terminal 4 are distinguished for convenience of explanation, but as will be described later, the user may be the mission registrant. In this case, the user The terminal 3 may function as the mission registrant terminal 4.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration example of the privilege management server 2 and the user terminal 3. The privilege management server 2 is a server device capable of communicating with the user terminal 3 and the mission registrant terminal 4 via the network N. In addition, in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the privilege management server 2 is represented by one block, but this does not mean that the privilege management server 2 is composed of a single device. The privilege management server 2 may be composed of a plurality of devices, or may be a part of a predetermined system.

As shown in FIG. 2, the privilege management server 2 includes a communication unit 10, a mission management unit 11, a privilege granting unit 12, a privilege adjusting unit 13, and a privilege-related information notification unit 14 as functional configurations. Further, the user terminal 3 includes a dedicated application execution unit 30 as a functional configuration. Each of the above functional blocks 10 to 14 and 30 can be configured by any of hardware, DSP (Digital Signal Processor), and software. For example, when configured by software, the functional blocks 10 to 14 and 30 are actually configured to include a computer CPU, RAM, ROM, etc., and are stored in a recording medium such as RAM, ROM, hard disk, or semiconductor memory. It is realized by the operation of the program. This also applies to the functional blocks described later.

The dedicated application execution unit 30 of the user terminal 3 reads a dedicated application installed on the user terminal 3 (including a part of the OS, an API provided by the OS, and other accompanying programs) by hardware such as a CPU. It is a functional block that executes various processes by executing.

As shown in FIG. 2, the privilege management server 2 includes a storage unit 15 as a storage means. The storage unit 15 includes a storage medium such as a hard disk and a magnetic tape, and stores at least a user management database 20, a mission management database 21, and a privilege management database 23. The user management database 20 is a database that stores registration information (name, address, date of birth, gender, authentication information, e-mail address, etc.) related to a user in association with a user ID for each user. Although details are omitted, user registration is performed by an appropriate method, and records are appropriately generated in the user management database 20 for users who have completed user registration. The mission management database 21, the mesh management database 22, and the privilege management database 23 will be described later.

In the present embodiment, the privilege management server 2 itself is configured to include the storage unit 15, but all or part of the functions of the storage unit 15 are provided in a device different from the device constituting the privilege management server 2. It may be configured to be used. For example, a part or all of the data stored in the storage unit 15 in the present embodiment may be stored in an external storage device other than the device constituting the privilege management server 2.

The communication unit 10 accesses the network N according to a predetermined communication standard, and communicates with a device (including a user terminal 3 and a mission registrant terminal 4) connected to the network N.

The mission management unit 11 manages the missions registered by the mission registrants by using the mission management database 21 stored in the storage unit 15. Hereinafter, the mission management unit 11 will be described in detail.

In the present embodiment, the mission means a task on which it is a condition of clearing to perform a set specific action within a set specific period in a set specific area. Hereinafter, the specific area set in the mission is referred to as a "setting area". The set area is to some extent including multiple facilities such as administrative areas (areas that are not strictly divided by the government, but areas that are customarily divided), shopping districts, and commercial complexes. It may be an expansive area, or it may be a narrow area such as a specific store or a specific facility. If a user performs a specific action in the setting area within a specific period, the user has completed the mission, and the user is given a set amount of dedicated points. The mission is pre-registered after the mission registrant specifies the set area, the specific period, the specific action, and the amount of dedicated points given to the user when the mission is completed. Missions are usually registered for the purpose of giving users an incentive to visit a set area.

For example, a mission is to purchase a product (a specific action) at a store belonging to the specific shopping district in a specific shopping district (setting area). In this case, the mission registrant is, for example, a union organization that manages various activities related to the specific shopping district, and the union organization visits the specific shopping district and purchases products by registering such a mission. It is possible to give users an incentive to purchase and to revitalize the specific shopping district. It is possible to replace a specific shopping district with a specific store, a specific shopping center, or the like.

In addition, for example, a mission takes a picture in a specific area (for example, a specific administrative area) (setting area) under specific conditions, and manages the photograph with a comment on a predetermined website (for example, a service provider). Posting (specific action) to the website). Taking a picture under specific conditions means, for example, taking a picture of an object unique to a specific area as a subject, and for example, a landscape discovered by a user or a favorite landscape in a specific area. Is to take a picture. In this case, the mission registrant is, for example, an agency related to the specific area (for example, an administrative agency if the area is an administrative area), and the organization can register such a mission to perform the specific area. It is possible to give users an incentive to visit and revitalize the specific area.

Also, for example, the mission is to participate in an event taking place in the setting area. Participating in the event and taking some concrete action may be a condition for clearing the mission. In this case, the mission registrant is, for example, the organizer of the event, and the event organizer gives the user an incentive to participate in the event by registering such a mission, and the setting area where the event is performed. And it can lead to the activation of the event itself.

The mission management unit 11 provides the mission registrant terminal 4 with a user interface (hereinafter, referred to as “mission registration UI”) for inputting information necessary for registering a mission. As an example, when the mission management unit 11 receives a predetermined request from the browser mounted on the mission registrant terminal 4, the mission management unit 11 generates a drawing file (for example, HTML file) by the function of the Web application and responds to the mission. Display the registration UI.

The mission management unit 11 generates one record in the mission management database 21 based on the information input to the mission registration UI by the mission registrant. FIG. 3A is a diagram schematically showing a part of information contained in one record of the mission management database 21. As shown in FIG. 3A, one record in the mission management database 21 has at least a mission ID, mission clear condition information, clearing point information, and set area position information.

The mission ID is the identification information of the mission, and the mission management unit 11 generates a unique value when the record is generated. The mission clear condition information is information in which conditions for clearing a mission (conditions for "what to do in which area and within what period") are described in a predetermined format. The point information given at the time of clearing is information indicating the amount of dedicated points given when the mission is cleared.

The setting area position information is information indicating the position of the setting area (range on the map). In particular, in the present embodiment, the set position information is information having the following contents. That is, the map is divided into rectangular regions (hereinafter, one rectangular region is referred to as "mesh region") divided in a grid pattern in advance. Then, in the mesh management database 22 stored in the storage unit 15, for each mesh area, the mesh ID which is the identification information of the mesh area and the information indicating the position of the mesh area on the map (for example, at the four corners of the mesh area). Information that identifies a point by longitude and latitude) is stored in association with it. The set position information is information that defines the area occupied by the set area on the map as a set of mesh areas (may be one) and holds the mesh ID of each mesh area belonging to the set.

For example, in the case of an administrative area having a set area, the set area position information is information that holds the mesh ID of each mesh area included in the set when the administrative area on the map is defined as a set of mesh areas. Is. Further, for example, when the setting area is a specific store, the setting area position information is information that holds the mesh ID of the mesh area to which the position of the store belongs.

The content of the setting area position information according to this embodiment is an example, and may be another content. For example, the setting area position information may be polygon data in which the setting area is defined as a polygonal shape formed by connecting a plurality of points on the map. Further, for example, the setting area position information clearly indicates the coordinates of a specific point on the map and the length of the radius (or diameter) of the circle centered on the specific point, and the specific point on the map is designated. The information may be information in which the set area is defined as a circle having a radius having a predetermined length as the center. That is, the setting area position information may be any information that defines a position that can be regarded as equivalent to the position (range) of the setting area. Therefore, the actual position (range) of the setting area and the position (range) represented by the setting area position information do not have to be exactly the same.

The mission registration UI is appropriately formed with input fields for inputting information necessary for the mission management unit 11 to generate mission clear condition information, clearing point information, and setting area position information, and mission management. The unit 11 generates one record in the mission management database 21 based on the information input to the mission registration UI. The registration of the one mission is completed by generating one record corresponding to the mission management database 21 for one mission. Although details are omitted, for missions whose clearable period has passed, the corresponding record is deleted from the mission management database 21 by the mission management unit 11 at an appropriate timing after the period has elapsed.

The registered mission is published by the service provider or the mission registrant by a predetermined method. For example, information about the registered mission is notified to the user by e-mail and posted on the website managed by the service provider.

The mission registration may be performed by a method other than the input to the mission registration UI by the mission registrant himself. For example, a dedicated operator hears the content of the mission from the mission registrant by e-mail, telephone, or other means, inputs a predetermined input to a predetermined terminal, and the mission management unit 11 manages the mission based on the predetermined input. One record may be generated in the database 21.

When the user clears the mission, the privilege granting unit 12 grants the user exclusive points according to the mission. As described above, the dedicated points can be used in common at the stores scattered in various places, and cannot be used only in the setting area set in the mission. Based on this, when the user performs a predetermined action in a predetermined area, the privilege giving unit 12 grants a dedicated point (privilege) that can be used not only in the predetermined area but also in a place other than the predetermined area. Hereinafter, the privilege granting unit 12 will be described in detail.

When a user clears a certain mission among the registered missions, the privilege granting unit 12 detects that the user has cleared the mission by an appropriate method according to the content of the mission. For example, if the mission is to purchase a product at a store in a specific shopping district, when the user purchases the product at the target store, the user ID and mission ID are obtained from the predetermined terminal of the store. Including, a mechanism for transmitting the mission clear notification information notifying that the user of the user ID has cleared the mission of the mission ID to the privilege management server 2 is constructed in advance. The mission clear notification information may be transmitted by the user terminal 3 by the function of the dedicated application. The privilege granting unit 12 receives the mission clear notification information and detects that a specific user has cleared a specific mission. In addition, instead of the mission ID, the information necessary for determining whether or not the mission has been cleared is included in the mission clear notification information, and the privilege granting unit 12 is based on the mission clear condition information of the mission management database 21. It may be configured to determine whether or not the mission has been cleared.

Also, for example, if the mission is to post a photo taken under specific conditions in a specific area to a predetermined website, when the website posts a photo that meets the conditions, the website A mechanism for transmitting mission clear notification information to the privilege management server 2 is constructed in advance from the system linked with. At that time, whether or not the posted photo satisfies the condition may be systematically determined based on, for example, the shooting date and time information included in the metadata of the image data of the photo and the shooting position information. May be done artificially. The privilege granting unit 12 receives the mission clear notification information and detects that a specific user has cleared a specific mission.

When the privilege granting unit 12 detects that the user with one user ID has cleared the mission with one mission ID, the privilege granting unit 12 refers to the mission management database 21 stored in the storage unit 15 and corresponds to the mission management database 21. Acquire the point information given at the time of clearing the record corresponding to one mission ID. Next, the privilege granting unit 12 uses the privilege management database 23 stored in the storage unit 15 to assign the amount of dedicated points (hereinafter, referred to as “reward points”) indicated by the reward point information at the time of clearing to the one user ID. Give to the user of. Hereinafter, the processing of the privilege giving unit 12 when giving reward points to the user will be described in detail.

FIG. 3B is a diagram schematically showing the contents of the privilege management database 23. The privilege management database 23 is a database for managing the balance of dedicated points (hereinafter referred to as “remaining points”) acquired by each user in a mission. The remaining points are dedicated points that are not used by the user after being given to the user. As shown in FIG. 3B, in the privilege management database 23, the remaining point information indicating the remaining points is associated with each combination of the user ID and the mission ID.

In the record group R1 of FIG. 3B, three mission IDs: M1 to M3 having values M1 to M3 are associated with the user ID having a value U1, and three combinations of the user ID and the mission ID are associated with each other. On the other hand, the remaining point information whose values are "1000 pt", "500 pt", and "100 pt" is associated with the above. This means that the user with user ID: U1 has a balance of "1000pt", "500pt", and "100pt" for each of the dedicated points earned for each of mission IDs: M1 to M3. ing.

When the privilege granting unit 12 grants reward points to a user with one user ID in response to clearing the mission with one mission ID, the record corresponding to the combination of the one user ID and the one mission ID. Determines whether or not exists in the privilege management database 23. When such a record does not exist, the privilege granting unit 12 newly generates a record in which the one user ID, the one mission ID, and the remaining point information having reward points as values are associated with each other. .. On the other hand, when such a record exists, the privilege granting unit 12 adds reward points to the value (= remaining points) of the remaining point information of the record. As a result of the above processing, the privilege management database 23 manages the remaining points for each mission for each user. As will be described later, when the remaining points for a certain mission of a certain user become zero, the privilege adjustment unit 13 deletes the corresponding record from the privilege management database 23.

The privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires the position of the user and the position of the setting area set in one mission, and the user stays in the setting area for the privilege given to the user in the one mission. Adjust the application rate of benefits so that the application rate (corresponding to the "rate" in the claims) is higher when you are not staying than when you are not staying.

The applicable rate is the rate at which the remaining points are multiplied in order to convert the remaining points into actual points. Real points are points that can actually be used as cash when using dedicated points. That is, in the present embodiment, the remaining points can not be used as cash as they are, but the actual points calculated from the remaining points can be used as cash. For example, suppose that the remaining points related to a certain mission are "100pt" and the applicable rate is "0.9". In this case, in the present embodiment, "100 pt" cannot be used as it is as "100 yen", but the actual points "90 pt" obtained by multiplying "100 pt" by the applicable rate can be used as cash "90 yen". Hereinafter, the privilege adjustment unit 13 will be described in detail.

The user can instruct the display of the balance of the dedicated points owned by the user by activating the dedicated application of the user terminal 3 owned by the user at an arbitrary timing and performing a predetermined operation. In particular, in the present embodiment, in order to use the dedicated points, the user clearly indicates that the remaining points will be used on the balance display screen (FIG. 5) displayed on the user terminal 3 in response to the instruction to display the balance. It is necessary to instruct. Therefore, the user instructs to display the balance of the dedicated points at least at a predetermined timing before purchasing the product at the store where the dedicated points can be used.

When the dedicated application execution unit 30 detects that the user has given the instruction, the dedicated application execution unit 30 generates browsing request information including at least the user ID and the user position information indicating the position of the user terminal 3 (≈ user position), and the privilege Send to management server 2. In addition, the dedicated application contains the information required to communicate with the privilege management server 2 (information required to establish a connection (access destination address, port number, etc.), information required for user authentication, etc.). It is registered. Further, the user terminal 3 is equipped with a GPS unit, and the dedicated application execution unit 30 acquires the detection value of the GPS unit using the API provided by the OS of the user terminal 3, and is based on this detection value. Generates user location information (information that identifies the user's location by longitude and latitude). In this embodiment, information indicating longitude and latitude is generated as user position information, but the following configuration may be used. That is, when the user's position is detected based on the detected value of the altitude sensor or the like in consideration of the altitude, and the positional relationship between the user's position and the set area is recognized in order to determine the value of the application rate described later. In addition, the processing may be performed in consideration of altitude.

The privilege adjustment unit 13 receives the browsing request information transmitted by the dedicated application execution unit 30. Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires the user ID included in the received browsing request information. In the following description of the privilege adjustment unit 13, the user ID included in the browsing request information received by the privilege adjustment unit 13 is referred to as a “target user ID”. Further, the user with the target user ID is referred to as "target user". Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires the user position information included in the browsing request information. This process corresponds to the process of "acquiring the user's position".

Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 refers to the privilege management database 23 stored in the storage unit 15 and determines whether or not a record corresponding to the target user ID exists in the privilege management database 23. If there are no remaining points, there is no record corresponding to the target user ID. When the record does not exist, the privilege adjustment unit 13 transmits a drawing file for displaying a screen displaying information indicating that the balance of the dedicated points does not exist via the connection established with the user terminal 3. To do. The dedicated application execution unit 30 of the user terminal 3 receives the drawing file and displays on the touch panel 3a a screen on which information indicating that the balance of the dedicated points does not exist is displayed based on the drawing file. By referring to the screen, the user can recognize that there is no balance of dedicated points.

On the other hand, when the record exists, the privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires the mission ID (each of the plurality of mission IDs if there are a plurality of mission IDs) associated with the target user ID in the privilege management database 23. The mission ID acquired here is the mission ID of the mission that has the remaining points among the missions cleared by the target user. In the following description of the privilege adjustment unit 13, a mission with remaining points (= a mission with a mission ID associated with a target user ID in the privilege management database 23) is referred to as a “target mission”.

Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 refers to the mission management database 21 and acquires each of the set area position information associated with each of the acquired mission IDs. That is, the privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires the setting area position information for each of the target missions. This process corresponds to the process of "acquiring the position of a predetermined area". Next, the privilege adjusting unit 13 determines the application rate for each acquired set area position information (= for each target mission) based on each of the acquired set area position information and the user position information. Hereinafter, the processing of the privilege adjustment unit 13 when determining the application rate based on the setting area position information and the user position information of a certain target mission will be described in detail.

First, the privilege adjusting unit 13 determines whether or not the position of the user indicated by the user position information belongs within the setting area whose position is indicated by the setting area position information. The fact that the user's position indicated by the user location information belongs to the setting area corresponding to the setting area location information means that the user is staying in the specific area set in the target mission at this time. is there. When the user's position indicated by the user position information belongs within the setting area corresponding to the setting area position information, the privilege adjusting unit 13 sets the value of the applicable rate as the maximum value. In this embodiment, the maximum applicable rate is set to "1". In the present embodiment, when the applied rate is the highest value (= 1), the remaining points = the actual points.

On the other hand, when the user's position indicated by the user position information does not belong to the setting area corresponding to the setting area position information, the privilege adjusting unit 13 determines the value of the application rate by the following method. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a set area on the map in order to explain the process of the privilege adjusting unit 13 when determining the value of the applicable rate in this case. As described above, the setting area position information defines the setting area as a set of mesh areas.

First, the privilege adjustment unit 13 recognizes the setting area AR corresponding to the setting area position information. Next, the privilege adjusting unit 13 identifies the mesh area W closest to the user's position Q among the mesh areas constituting the setting area AR. Next, the privilege adjusting unit 13 recognizes the line segment T on the map connecting the user's position Q and the mesh area W (which may be the central portion or the position of the outer edge close to the user's position Q). Then, the length of this line segment T is calculated. The length of the line segment T can be regarded as the distance between the set position and the user's position. The longer the line segment T is, the farther the user is from the set area. It will be.

Here, the value of the applicable rate is predetermined for each range in which the length of the line segment T can be taken. At that time, the range that the length of the line segment T can take and the value of the application rate are associated with each other so that the longer the length of the line segment T, the smaller the value of the application rate. Further, in each case, the value of the applicable rate is set to be smaller than the maximum value and larger than zero. For example, when "0 km <length of line segment T ≤ 10 km", the value of the applicable rate is defined as "0.8", and when "10 km <length of line segment T ≤ 50 km", the value of the applied rate is set. Is defined as "0.6", and when "50 km <length of line segment T", the value of the applicable rate is defined as "0.4". The privilege adjusting unit 13 determines the value of the applicable rate associated with the range to which the calculated length of the line segment T belongs as the value of the applied rate.

The method of calculating the applicable rate when the user is not staying in the setting area is not limited to the method illustrated in this embodiment. The value of the applicable rate when the user is not staying in the setting area may be calculated by a method such that the value of the applicable rate becomes smaller as the user is located farther from the setting area. For example, using a predetermined arithmetic expression that makes the value of the applicable rate smaller as the length of the line segment T becomes longer, a certain range smaller than the maximum value (for example, when the maximum value is 1, "1>" The value of the applicable rate may be determined within the range of "applicable rate value> 0.3"). Further, the application rate is calculated by an appropriate method corresponding to the method depending on how the setting area position information specifies the position of the setting area.

Further, the application rate may be calculated by the following method. That is, the applicable rate value is preset for each of the mesh areas on the map for each mission. At that time, the maximum value is set in the mesh area corresponding to the setting area, while the application rate is set in the mesh area outside the setting area so that the value decreases as the distance from the setting area increases. As an example, "0.8" is predetermined as the applicable rate value for each of the mesh areas belonging to the range of 10 km (excluding the mesh area belonging to the set area) from the center of the set area, and within 50 km. "0.6" is predetermined as the applicable rate value for each of the mesh areas belonging to (however, excluding the mesh area belonging to the range of 10 km), and the applicable rate value for each of the other mesh areas. Is predetermined as "0.4". Then, the privilege adjusting unit 13 specifies the mesh area to which the user's position indicated by the user position information belongs, and determines a value preset in the specified mesh area as the value of the application rate. The above configuration may be used.

As described above, for each target mission, the privilege adjustment unit 13 has a maximum value when the user is staying in the set area, and a value smaller than the maximum value when the user is not staying in the set area (however, zero). Adjust the applicable rate value so that it becomes a larger value). This has the following effects. That is, the dedicated points earned by the user by clearing a certain mission can be used not only in the setting area set in the mission, but also in stores located in places other than the setting area. For this reason, even if a mission is performed in a remote location for a certain user (for example, a place where he / she went on a trip), if the user clears the mission in a remote location, various stores scattered in various places will be used. Dedicated points that can be used will be given to the user. Therefore, even if the user happens to be staying in a remote place, the user can be given an incentive to perform a set action and clear the mission. Then, when such an action is performed in the setting area, it leads to activation of the setting area.

On top of that, according to the present embodiment, the exclusive points earned by the user clearing a certain mission have the highest applicable rate when the user is staying in the setting area set in the mission. Therefore, it can be used most advantageously (profitably). Therefore, after clearing the mission, it is possible to give the user an incentive to visit the set area again in order to use the dedicated points in an advantageous manner.

Further, in the present embodiment, the privilege adjusting unit 13 adjusts the value of the application rate so that the value becomes smaller as the distance from the setting area increases when the user does not stay in the setting area. This has the following effects. That is, the closer the user is to the setting area, the more advantageous (profitably) the dedicated points can be used. Therefore, when the user considers using the dedicated points, the setting area is given to the user. The closer you are to, the more profitable you can get, and you can effectively encourage visits to the set area. In addition, a certain area (as described above, in the present embodiment, the area includes not only an area having a certain extent such as a shopping district but also a very limited area such as one store). It is assumed that the activation of is positively affected not only in that area but also when humans are active in the vicinity of that area. Based on this, according to the present embodiment, since the user is given an incentive to visit a position as close as possible to the setting area, it is possible to increase the possibility that the user visits near the setting area. It can lead to activation.

After determining the value of the applicable rate for each target mission, the privilege adjustment unit 13 displays the balance display screen (FIG. 5) in which the remaining points, the applied rate, and the actual points are displayed for each target mission. A drawing file is generated and transmitted to the user terminal 3 from which the browsing request information is transmitted as a response to the received browsing request information. The dedicated application execution unit 30 of the user terminal 3 receives the drawing file and uses the function of the browser to display the balance display screen on the touch panel 3a.

FIG. 5 is a diagram schematically showing an example of a balance display screen. On the balance display screen illustrated in FIG. 5, information about the dedicated points acquired in the three missions is displayed based on the record group R1 in FIG. 3 (B). More specifically, in the area K1, the application rate (value: 1) is displayed for the dedicated points related to the mission with the mission ID: M1, and the remaining points (value: 1000pt) and the application rate are applied. The actual point (value: 1000pt) is displayed. Further, in the area K1, when a dedicated point (more accurately, an actual point) is used, a field for inputting the amount of the actual point to be used and a button for instructing the use of the actual point are displayed. In the area K2 and the area K3, information about the dedicated points related to the missions of the mission IDs M2 and M3 is displayed in the same manner as in the area K1, respectively.

By referring to the balance display screen, the user can check the remaining points, the applicable rate, and the actual points for each mission. Therefore, the user can recognize the value of the net points for each mission by checking the actual points for each mission. In addition, users can check the applicable rate for each mission to see if it is profitable for them to use the remaining points at this time, and if there are remaining points for multiple different missions, at this time, You can recognize useful information such as which mission is most profitable to spend the remaining points.

In addition, the user can use the balance display screen to explicitly specify the amount of actual points to be used and then instruct the use of actual points. Although details are omitted, when instructed to use actual points, payment using actual points is appropriately performed by a dedicated system. To briefly explain an example, a two-dimensional code in which a user ID, the amount of actual points to be used, and other necessary information are recorded on the touch panel 3a of the user terminal 3 is generated by the function of the dedicated application according to the user's instruction. Is displayed. The user holds the two-dimensional code over the reading device provided at the cash register at a predetermined timing during the payment at the cash register. Then, appropriate processing is performed at the cashier's payment terminal, and the actual points are used.

When the actual points are used, the privilege adjustment unit 13 determines the user ID of the user, the mission ID of the mission corresponding to the actual points used, the amount of the actual points used, and the applicable rate from the dedicated system. Receive point usage notification information that includes at least information indicating the value. Upon receiving the point usage notification information, the privilege adjustment unit 13 refers to the privilege management database 23 and identifies a record corresponding to the combination of the user ID and the mission ID included in the point usage notification information. Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 converts the amount of actual points into the amount of points to be reduced from the remaining points based on the amount of actual points used included in the point usage notification information and the value of the applicable rate. , Reduce the remaining points by that amount. When the remaining points become zero as a result of reducing the remaining points, the privilege adjustment unit 13 deletes the record.

When the user approaches the setting area related to the mission with the remaining points, the privilege-related information notification unit 14 notifies the user that there are dedicated points that can be advantageously used in the setting area. Hereinafter, the processing of the privilege-related information notification unit 14 when notifying information to one user will be described in detail.

When the user who wants to be notified of the information to notify the setting area related to the mission with the remaining points, the user launches the dedicated application of the user terminal 3 owned by the user and sets the operation mode to the predetermined mode. To do. When the operation mode becomes the predetermined mode, the dedicated application execution unit 30 periodically generates notification request information at predetermined intervals and transmits it to the privilege management server 2. The notification request information includes at least a user ID and user position information indicating the position of the user terminal 3 (≈ user position).

When the privilege-related information notification unit 14 receives the notification request information, the privilege management database 23 has a mission ID associated with the user ID included in the notification request information (if there are a plurality of mission IDs, each of the plurality of mission IDs). ) To get. Next, the privilege-related information notification unit 14 refers to the mission management database 21 and acquires each of the set area position information associated with each of the acquired mission IDs. Each of the set area position information acquired here is information corresponding to each of the missions having the remaining points. Next, the privilege-related information notification unit 14 determines whether or not the user has approached any of the setting areas based on the user position information included in the notification request information and the setting area position information. For example, the privilege-related information notification unit 14 determines that the user has approached the set area when the length of the perpendicular line drawn from the position of the user with respect to the outer edge of the set area is equal to or less than a predetermined length. To do.

When the user is not close to any of the setting areas, the privilege-related information notification unit 14 discards the notification request information. On the other hand, when it is determined that the user has approached any of the setting areas, the privilege-related information notification unit 14 provides information on the position of the setting area and the remaining amount that can be advantageously used at the highest applicable rate in the setting area. Generate a drawing file to display the screen on which at least the information that the point exists is displayed. The privilege-related information notification unit 14 transmits the generated drawing file to the user terminal 3 that is the source of the notification request information, and the dedicated application execution unit 30 of the user terminal 3 displays the screen based on the received drawing file on the touch panel 3a. indicate.

On the screen displayed on the touch panel 3a, for example, the position (range) of the setting area on the map, the user's position is clearly indicated, and the amount of remaining points, the application rate, and the actual points when the application rate is applied are displayed. It is specified. By referring to the screen, the user can accurately recognize that the remaining points can be advantageously used in the setting area while grasping the positional relationship between the setting area and itself. In particular, even if the user has forgotten that there are remaining points that can be used advantageously in a certain setting area, such remaining points are present when the user approaches this setting area. Can be accurately recognized. Further, by making the user aware of such a thing, it is possible to give the user an incentive to actively visit the setting area.

After displaying the information about a certain setting area, the privilege-related information notification unit 14 does not display the information about the setting area for a certain period of time. This prevents the same information from being displayed unnecessarily repeatedly. In the present embodiment, the privilege-related information notification unit 14 is configured to notify the information when the user approaches the setting area. Regarding this point, the information is notified when the user enters the setting area. It may be configured to be used.

Next, an operation example of the privilege management server 2 will be described using a flowchart. FIG. 6A is a flowchart showing the operation of the privilege management server 2 when granting dedicated points for one mission to one user and managing the granted dedicated points. As shown in FIG. 6A, the privilege granting unit 12 of the privilege management server 2 grants dedicated points when the one user performs a specific action in the setting area and clears the mission (step). SA1). After that, the privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires the position of the one user at a predetermined timing, acquires the position of the setting area set in the one mission, and is based on the position of the user and the position of the setting area. Therefore, the rate of the dedicated point is adjusted so that the rate is higher when the user is staying in the setting area than when the user is not staying (step SA2).

FIG. 6B is a flowchart showing details of an operation example of the privilege giving unit 12 in step SA1. As shown in FIG. 6B, when one user clears one of the registered missions, the privilege granting unit 12 uses an appropriate method according to the content of the one mission. , Detects that the one user has cleared the one mission (step SB1). Next, the privilege granting unit 12 acquires the clearing point granting point information of the record corresponding to the one mission among the records of the mission management database 21 (step SB2). Next, the privilege granting unit 12 determines whether or not there is a record corresponding to the combination of the one user and the one mission in the privilege management database 23 (step SB3).

When such a record does not exist (step SB3: NO), the privilege granting unit 12 associates the one user ID, the one mission ID, and the remaining point information having reward points as values. A new record is generated (step SB4). On the other hand, when such a record exists (step SB3: YES), the privilege granting unit 12 adds reward points to the value (= remaining points) of the remaining point information of the record (step SB5).

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing details of an operation example of the privilege adjusting unit 13 in step SA2. As shown in FIG. 7, the privilege adjustment unit 13 receives the browsing request information transmitted by the dedicated application execution unit 30 in response to an instruction to display the balance of the user (step SC1). Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires the user ID included in the received browsing request information (step SC2). Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires the user position information included in the browsing request information (step SC3). Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 refers to the privilege management database 23, and determines whether or not a record corresponding to the target user ID exists in the privilege management database 23 (step SC4).

When the record does not exist (step SC4: NO), the privilege adjustment unit 13 transmits to the user terminal 3 a drawing file for displaying the information indicating that the balance of the dedicated points does not exist (step SC5). On the other hand, when the record exists (step SC4: YES), the privilege adjustment unit 13 acquires each of the mission IDs associated with the target user ID in the privilege management database 23 (step SC6). Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 refers to the mission management database 21 and acquires each of the setting area position information associated with each of the mission IDs acquired in step SC6 (step SC7).

Next, the privilege adjusting unit 13 determines the application rate for each of the acquired set area position information based on each of the set area position information acquired in step SC7 and the user position information acquired in step SC3 (step SC8). ). Details of the processing in step SC8 will be described later. Next, the privilege adjustment unit 13 generates a drawing file for displaying the balance display screen (see FIG. 5) in which the remaining points, the applied rate, and the actual points are displayed for each mission, and responds to the received browsing request information. The drawing file generated as is transmitted to the user terminal 3 from which the browsing request information is transmitted (step SC9).

FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing details of processing when determining an application rate for one set area position information in step SC8. As shown in FIG. 8, when determining the application rate, the privilege adjustment unit 13 first determines whether or not the user's position indicated by the user position information belongs to the setting area where the setting area position information indicates the position. (Step SD1). When the user's position indicated by the user position information belongs within the setting area indicated by the setting area position information (step SD1: YES), the privilege adjusting unit 13 sets the value of the application rate to the maximum value (step SD2).

On the other hand, when the user's position indicated by the user position information does not belong to the setting area indicated by the setting area position information (step SD1: NO), the privilege adjusting unit 13 has the setting area AR corresponding to the setting area position information (FIG. 4) is recognized (step SD3), and among the mesh areas constituting the setting area AR, the mesh area W closest to the user's position Q (FIG. 4) is specified (step SD4). Next, the privilege adjusting unit 13 recognizes the line segment T on the map connecting the mesh area W and the user's position Q, and calculates the length of this line segment T (step SD5). Next, the privilege adjusting unit 13 determines a value associated with the range to which the length of the line segment T calculated in step SD5 belongs as the value of the application rate (step SD6).

The first embodiment has been described above. Here, in the first embodiment, the privilege management server 2 includes a mission management unit 11, a privilege granting unit 12, a privilege adjusting unit 13, and a privilege-related information notification unit 14.

The privilege acquisition unit 40 acquires exclusive points acquired by the target user by clearing the mission. More specifically, when the target user obtains the exclusive points for clearing the mission, the point grant notification information (claims) including at least the mission ID of the cleared mission and the information indicating the amount of the exclusive points given to the user. The range (corresponding to "privilege information") is transmitted to the user terminal 3A. The point grant notification information is transmitted, for example, by a server device corresponding to the privilege management server 2 according to the first embodiment or a dedicated system for managing missions.

The privilege acquisition unit 40 receives the point grant notification information. This process corresponds to the process of "acquiring privilege information". When the privilege acquisition unit 40 receives the point grant notification information, the privilege management database 23A stored in the storage unit 15A is updated based on the point grant notification information in the same manner as in the first embodiment. As a result of the above processing being performed by the privilege acquisition unit 40, the privilege management database 23A manages the remaining points for each of the target missions.

The privilege adjustment unit 13A acquires the position of the user and the position of the setting area set in one mission, and the user stays in the setting area for the privilege given to the user in the one mission. Adjust the application rate of benefits so that the application rate is higher when you are staying than when you are not staying.

More specifically, the privilege adjustment unit 13A executes the following processing when the target user gives an instruction to display the balance display screen. That is, the privilege adjusting unit 13A acquires the user position information indicating the user's position based on the detection value of the GPS unit mounted on the user terminal 3A. In addition, the privilege adjustment unit 13A acquires the setting area position information for each of the target missions by inquiring to an external device such as a server device corresponding to the privilege management server 2 according to the first embodiment. The user terminal 3 may store the set area position information in the storage unit 15A at least for each target mission.

The privilege adjustment unit 13A determines the application rate for each target mission in the same manner as in the first embodiment based on the acquired user position information and the acquired setting area position information. After determining the applicable rate for each target mission, the privilege adjustment unit 13A displays the balance display screen (see FIG. 5) on the touch panel (not shown) of the user terminal 3A.

When the target user approaches the setting area related to the target mission, the privilege-related information notification unit 14A notifies the target user that there is a dedicated point that can be advantageously used in the setting area. More specifically, the privilege-related information notification unit 14A executes the following processing when the dedicated application is launched and the operation mode is set to the predetermined mode. That is, the privilege-related information notification unit 14A monitors whether or not the target user has approached (or entered) any of the set areas of the target mission by the same method as the method described in the first embodiment. When it is detected that the target user is approaching one target mission, the privilege-related information notification unit 14A displays information indicating that the one user is approaching the one target mission on the touch panel.

However, the method of giving points illustrated in the above embodiment is just an example, and points may be given by any method. As an example, a 2D code is given to the user at the time of an event related to the mission or at other appropriate timing (as an example, a card with the 2D code recorded is given), and the 2D code is used. Then, the user may be given points. Further, in each of the above embodiments, although the user authentication is not described in detail, when the user terminal 3 accesses the privilege management server 2 or when the user terminal 3 accesses a predetermined server during a mission. Is properly authenticated by the user. At that time, the authentication may be performed by using image recognition technology, fingerprint authentication, voiceprint authentication, or the like.

For example, in each of the above embodiments, dedicated points, which are points that can be used in place of cash, correspond to "privileges" in the claims. However, benefits are not limited to points that can be used as a substitute for cash. For example, the privilege may be points that can be used only for exchanging products, coupons that discount the price of a specific product, or the like. In the case where the privilege is a coupon, when the present invention is applied, the privilege adjustment unit 13 according to the first embodiment is discounted when the user is staying in the setting area than when the user is not staying.

Further, in each of the above embodiments, the maximum value of the application rate is "1", that is, a value that equalizes the remaining points and the actual points, but the maximum value of the application rate is not limited to "1". For example, the value may exceed "1". If the maximum applicable rate is set to a value larger than "1", the dedicated points can be used more advantageously (more profitably) in the setting area, and the user is given a stronger incentive to visit the setting area. can do.

Further, in each of the above embodiments, when the user is not staying in the setting area, the privilege adjustment unit 13 adjusts the application rate value so that the application rate value gradually decreases as the distance from the setting area increases. did. In this regard, the value of the applicable rate when not staying in the setting area may be a uniform value (however, a value smaller than the maximum value).

Further, in each of the above embodiments, the mission is registered in advance, and when the user clears the mission, a dedicated point is given. In this regard, the conditions under which the dedicated points are given to the user are not limited to those illustrated in each of the above embodiments, and may be conditions that include the execution of a specific action in a specific area. .. For example, instead of in the form of a mission, exclusive points may be given when a product is purchased at a store belonging to a specific area during the campaign period.

Further, the balance display screen described with reference to FIG. 5 is merely an example, and information regarding the setting area for each mission (for example, information indicating a position on a map or when the setting area can be specified by some name) The name) and information indicating the content of the mission may be included.
