1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the present invention.

In the auction service providing system 100 of the present invention, the betting history input means 101, the game result storage means 102, the point payment means 103, the user database 104, the successful bidder selection means 105 and the point credit history It comprises an output means 106.

The betting history input means 101 receives betting details including a game to be betted, an expected result of each game, and points to be used for betting from a user who participated in an auction via the Internet.

There is no particular restriction on the type of game the user uses to bet. The result is a result of winning or losing, such as sports games (users can bet using only winning or losing, or betting including scores), and programs that are ranked by each song, such as the song ranking program. The user may select a particular song and place a bet using the estimated ranking of the song).

The game result storage means 102 stores the result of the game in which the users who participated in the auction bet. The results of each game may be input by an operator of the system, and may be connected to and receive game results from a predetermined system that provides such results.

The point payment means 103 first provides predetermined points to the users who participated in the auction, and then provides the points to the users according to the betting details and results of the users.

There may be several ways to provide points.

First, when users apply to participate in a game, a certain point may be provided to each user who participates in the game, or points may be provided in proportion to the participation fee paid by the user.

Even if points are provided for the result of the user's betting, the points may be provided through various methods.

First, the user may bet using only a certain point per game, and if the user matches the result of the game, a certain point may be provided to the user who matched the result.

In addition, the user may be able to select a point that can be bet per game, and when the result of the game is matched, the point may be provided in proportion to the point bet by the user. For example, if team A wins in a game played by both teams A and B, 10 points will be awarded to users who have bet 10 points that Team A wins, and 20 points will be given to users who have bet 20 points. Can provide points.

It is also possible to calculate odds in each game and vary the points provided accordingly. In other words, if team A wins in a game played by both teams A and B, even if they bet the same points, there are 100 users who bet that team A wins and one player who bets that team A loses. If the bettor has one user who bets that Team A wins and there are 100 users who bet that Team A loses, it is desirable to provide fewer points than the user who bet on Team A.

At this time, the users who do not match the game results may be subtracted from the points and provided to the users who matched the game results. In other words, if the users who did not match the result of the game are 100 points, and the users who have matched the game result are 10 points, the points of the users who do not match the game result are subtracted and the points are used. Users who match the game results can be given 10 points for each bet.

The user database 104 stores betting details for each user who participated in the auction and information on points provided by each user.

The successful bidder selecting means 105 selects a successful bidder by using points for each user stored in the user database 104.

There are many ways to select a successful bidder. For example, auction period may be set, and the user who has earned the most points at the end of the period may be selected as the final successful bidder, or the user who reaches the point with the predetermined point is selected as the successful bidder. You can also

In the case of selecting a successful bidder for the auction period, it is preferable to allow the auction to be probable if the point of the user who has obtained the most points at the end of the auction period is lower than a predetermined reference score.

In this case, the users who participated in the auction can use the points, except points corresponding to a predetermined fee, from the points acquired by the user in order to make a purchase in a shopping mall or an associated shopping mall operated by the operator of the system of the present invention, It is advisable to make them available at other auctions.

The point accumulation history output means 106 outputs in real time the point acquisition status of all users who participated in the auction or the group of users who obtained the most points using the contents stored in the user database 104.

When the user accesses the system 100 of the present invention through a wired or wireless Internet, the user may participate in the auction by applying to participate in the auction of the product (201).

At this time, it is desirable to pay a predetermined participation fee. In the case where the same points are provided to all auction participants, the entry fee is preferably set equally for each participant. If the points are determined according to the participation fee paid by the auction participant, the user may decide to pay voluntarily. have.

Point payment means 103 provides a point to each auction participant (202). In this case, the provided points may be constant for each user, and different points may be paid according to the participation fee paid by each user.

That is, if 10 points are provided in the case of paying 1000 won as the entry fee, 30 points may be provided instead of 20 points in the case of 2000 won.

In addition, although the timing of providing points to the user on the basis of the entry fee is limited to before the auction proceeds in FIG. 2, when the points to be provided are determined according to the entry fee paid by the auction participant, the first user may apply for entry. In addition to this, if the user pays an additional auction fee at any time during the auction proceeding, corresponding points may be provided.

At this time, it is desirable to place bets of each auction participant only until the start of the game that is the object of the betting.

The game bet by each auction participant is preferably received and stored in the game result storage means 102 as soon as the game ends (204). At this time, the storage of the data to the game result storage means 102 may be entered directly by the operator of the system to check each game, or may be transmitted from the system for providing each game data.

The point payment means 103 compares the contents stored in the betting history input means 101 with the contents stored in the game result storage means 102 and provides points to the auction participants according to the result (205). ).

The method of providing points is to allow the user to place bets using only a certain point per game, and to ensure that a certain point is given to the user who matched the result when the user matches the game result. How to select points that can be wagered and when the result of the game is matched, so that the points are provided in proportion to the points bet by the user, how to calculate the odds in each game to provide different points provided accordingly The description of the system has been explained fully, and there are many ways to subtract points from users who do not match the game results and provide the subtracted points to users who match the game results. Is omitted.

The point accumulation history output means 106 outputs the point accumulation details of each auction participant by referring to the user database 104 whenever the points are accumulated through the point payment means 103 and informs the users who participated in the auction (206). ). At this time, all the points earned details of all auction participants may be notified, or specific auction participants, for example, based on the points earned may be notified only the points accumulated details of the top 1% auction participants.

By doing so, each auction participant can see how likely it is that he or she will be selected as a winner by comparing his points with those of other auction participants, and if he pays a little more, he will add more points for the payment of the fee. If it is determined that the likelihood of being selected as a successful bidder is high, each auction participant is more likely to pay an entry fee, so that the operator of the system of the present invention can make additional profits.

If an auction end reason occurs during the auction in this way (207), the auction ends and a successful bidder is selected (208).

The reason for the end of the auction may be the case that a predetermined period of time has elapsed, or a user who has obtained a predetermined point has occurred.

Users participating in the auction can be used to purchase points in the shopping malls or affiliated shopping malls operated by the operator of the system of the present invention except points corresponding to a predetermined fee from points acquired by them, or participate in other auctions. It can be used for as described above.

The method of the present invention can also be embodied as computer readable code on a computer readable recording medium. The computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of computer-readable recording media include ROM, RAM, CD-ROM, magnetic tape, floppy disk, optical data storage, and the like, and may also be implemented in the form of a carrier wave (for example, transmission over the Internet).
