1 is a diagram illustrating a service providing server that performs a gift providing method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to Figure 1, the gift providing method is performed by a purchaser terminal 101, a service providing server 102, and N recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N.

For example, the buyer terminal 101 may purchase a gift from application A and then receive a gift code corresponding to the gift from the service providing server 102. Application A is an application that allows the buyer terminal 101 to purchase a gift and register the gift code secured by the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N, and is provided by the service providing server 102.

One or more gift codes are generated depending on the order quantity set by the buyer terminal 101 in response to the gift. In addition, the gift code is sent to the recipient terminals (103-1 to 103-N) through the A application in which the buyer terminal 101 purchased the gift, the B application that is a message application linked to the A application, or a C application separate from the A application. can be transmitted to Alternatively, when the buyer terminal 101 posts the gift code corresponding to the gift on the posting page of the D application, which can be posted as an application related to a social network that is distinct from the A application, it is sent to the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N. can be copied by

Then, the recipient terminals (103-1 to 103-N) register the gift code in the A application that issued the gift code or in the E application that did not issue the gift code but can check the gift corresponding to the gift code. You can check the corresponding gift. Then, the recipient terminals (103-1 to 103-N) can enter the delivery address for the gift confirmed through the A application or the E application.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the purchaser terminal 101 and the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N are set to be friends with each other in a specific application (acquaintance relationship on the application) or are not friends with each other ( Includes all non-acquaintance relationships in the application. Here, the friend relationship refers to an acquaintance relationship in which contact information or IDs, etc. are shared between users of the purchaser terminal 101 and the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N, and can be immediately accessed without additional procedures in a specific application. In other words, the user of the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N may have an acquaintance relationship with the user of the purchaser terminal 101 as well as a non-acquaintance relationship. Meanwhile, even if it is an offline friend relationship, if contact information or ID is not shared between the users of the purchaser terminal 101 and the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N, it is set as a friend relationship (acquaintance relationship) as referred to in the present invention. It may not work.

The buyer terminal 101 can anonymously gift a gift to the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N through a gift code. Alternatively, the buyer terminal 101 can present a gift to the recipient terminals (103-1 to 103-N) through a gift code while exposing only the minimum information (for example, profile or ID, etc.) of the user used in a specific application. there is.

Figure 2 is a diagram illustrating the progress of a gift providing method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In step (1) of FIG. 2, the buyer terminal 101 may request the service providing server 102 to purchase a gift and pay for the gift. Then, in step (2) of FIG. 2, the service providing server 102 may complete the order of the gift and provide the order result to the buyer terminal 101.

In step (3) of FIG. 2, the service providing server 102 may generate a gift code corresponding to the gift purchased by the buyer terminal 101. Then, in step (4) of FIG. 2, the service providing server 102 may provide the purchaser terminal 101 with a gift code corresponding to the gift purchased by the purchaser terminal 101.

In step 5 of FIG. 2, the purchaser terminal 101 may transmit the gift code to the recipient terminal 103 or post the gift code on the posting page of a specific application. Then, in step 6 of FIG. 2, the recipient terminal 103 can receive a gift code from the buyer terminal 101 or copy the gift code posted by the buyer terminal 101 on the posting page.

In step 7 of FIG. 2, the recipient terminal 103 may register the gift code on the gift code registration page provided by the service providing server 102. In step 8 of FIG. 2, the service providing server 102 may search for gift information using the gift code registered by the recipient terminal 103. In step 9 of FIG. 2, the service providing server 102 may provide the searched gift information to the recipient terminal 103. In step 10 of FIG. 2, when the recipient terminal 101 selects to receive a gift corresponding to the gift code, in step 11 of FIG. 2, a request to receive the gift is transmitted to the service providing server 102. You can. And, in step 12 of FIG. 2, the service providing server 102 may provide a notification indicating that the recipient terminal 103 has registered a gift code for the gift purchased by the purchaser terminal 101 and received the gift. there is.

Figure 3 is a diagram illustrating a process in which a gift code is provided to a recipient terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In the case of FIG. 3, the process after the purchaser terminal 101 selects a gift on the gift purchase page provided by the service providing server 102 and payment is completed will be described. In Figure 3A, the buyer terminal 101 can directly transmit a gift code to the recipient terminal 103. For example, the buyer terminal 101 may transmit a gift code through a message such as an SMS/MMS message or a chat message of a chat application.

At this time, when a gift code is transmitted through a message, the buyer terminal 101 may write the message directly or the message may be transmitted through the service providing server 102. When the buyer terminal 101 directly writes a message, information of the buyer terminal 101 may be provided to the recipient terminal 103. However, when a message is transmitted through the service providing server 103, the information of the purchaser terminal 101 is not exposed, but only the information (ex. representative number, etc.) of the service providing server 102 is exposed, so that the gift code is anonymous. It can be delivered.

Then, the recipient terminal 103, which has received the gift code, can check the gift provided by the buyer terminal 101 by registering the gift code on the gift code registration page provided by the service providing server 102.

In Figure 3B, the buyer terminal 101 does not directly transmit the gift code to the recipient terminal 103, but posts the gift code on the posting page of a specific application so that a third party can check it. Here, the specific application may be different from the application through which the purchaser terminal 101 purchases a gift through the service providing server 102. For example, the posting page in FIG. 3 may refer to a posting page where a gift code can be posted in the form of a posting or comment in an application, site, or program corresponding to a social network, such as a blog or cafe. In other words, the posting page may include any type of page that the buyer terminal 101 can register by copying the gift code. In addition, when there are N recipient terminals 103 to provide gifts, the total number of gifts purchased by the purchaser terminal 101 may be listed on the posting page.

The recipient terminal 103 accesses the gift code posting page, copies the gift code displayed on the gift code posting page, and then presents the gift through the gift code registration page where the gift code can be registered on the service provision server 102. You can register the code.

If the recipient terminal 103 registers a gift code, the total number of gifts displayed on the gift code registration page may vary. For example, the total number of gifts is determined according to the gift order quantity set by the buyer terminal 101. Additionally, the total number of gifts may be updated on the gift code registration page as a result of the deduction based on the number of times the gift code has been registered.

For example, when the buyer terminal 101 purchases a specific gift At this time, if the other M recipient terminals have not already registered the gift code at the time the recipient terminal 103 registers the gift code, the total number of gifts displayed on the gift code registration page becomes N. And, if other M recipient terminals have already registered gift codes at the time the recipient terminal 103 registers the gift code, the total number of gifts displayed on the gift code registration page is updated to N-M subtracted from N. can be displayed.

Above, we explained the case where the total number is displayed on the gift code registration page where the gift code is registered, but it may also be displayed on the posting page where the gift code is posted. For example, when the buyer terminal 101 posts a gift code on the posting page of an application related to a specific social network, the total number may be displayed on the posting page according to the order quantity of the gift in order to distribute the gift code on a first-come, first-served basis. there is. In this case, when a plurality of recipient terminals 103 register gift codes on a first-come, first-served basis, the total number displayed on the posting page where the gift code is posted will be deducted and updated according to the number of gift codes registered by the recipient terminal 103. It may be possible.

Figure 4 is a diagram for explaining the process of generating a gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The gift purchase page shown in A and B of Figure 4 is any page included in the application that generates a gift code according to the order quantity of the gift set by the buyer terminal 101 when the buyer terminal 101 purchases a gift. As, it may be provided by the service providing server 102.

A in FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a gift purchase page for the buyer terminal 101 to set the number (N) of gifts to be provided to the recipient terminals 103. That is, the number of people in A of FIG. 4 means the number of gifts determined according to the order quantity of the gifts. Here, N may include 1 or more. N gifts represent the same type.

According to B of FIG. 4, there is a case (1) of issuing one gift code regardless of the order quantity of the gift corresponding to the number of people entered in A of FIG. 4, and N gift codes are issued to correspond to the order quantity of the gift. Indicates the case of issuance (2). In case (1), one identical gift code can be issued for N gifts. And, in case (2), N different gift codes can be generated for each of N gifts.

In the present invention, the recipient terminal 103 can register only one gift code. In other words, after the recipient terminal 103 registers a gift code, a gift cannot be obtained even if the same gift code is registered according to (1) or a different gift code is registered according to (2). In this case, as shown in A of FIG. 11, if the same recipient terminal 103 registers the gift code multiple times to receive multiple gifts, it may be displayed as invalid according to the validity information text of the gift code. So, the service providing server 102 provides the identification information of the recipient terminal 103 (for example, when accessing the gift code registration page to register the gift code) when the recipient terminal 103 registers the gift code. By determining the input ID and identification information (phone number, MAC ID, etc.) of the recipient terminal 103, it can be determined whether the recipient terminal 103 is a terminal that has already registered a gift code before.

Figure 5 is a diagram for explaining the properties of a gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The gift code refers to a code that allows the recipient terminal 103 to register a gift code to receive or deliver a gift on the gift code registration page of the application where the purchaser terminal 101 purchased the gift. The buyer terminals 101 may be created to be identical or differentiated from each other depending on the quantity of gifts purchased. For example, if the buyer terminal 101 orders three coffees, a gift code may be generated for each three coffees. At this time, a gift code may be generated according to the number of gifts purchased by the purchaser terminal 101, regardless of whether the ordered coffee is the same type or a different type.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the recipient terminal 103 is not specified when generating a gift code, but rather secures the gift code through some path and then exchanges the gift code with the gift code provided by the service providing server 102. The user terminal registered on the registration page may become the recipient terminal 103. In other words, the recipient terminal 103 cannot obtain a gift simply by receiving or copying the gift code, and after registering the gift code on the gift code registration page provided by the service providing server 102, the gift code is entered into the gift code. The corresponding gift can be delivered or received.

A gift code can consist of X digits and can be created by combining special characters, letters, numbers, etc. For example, 1, 0 (number), or O (alphabet), etc. can be excluded when creating a gift code. Gift codes are not used as permanent codes in consideration of abuse, but can be used as codes with a limited period of time.

Referring to FIG. 5, the gift code may consist of only a basic code or a combination of a basic code and an additional code. The basic code may be randomly generated when the buyer terminal 101 purchases a gift by selecting the gift and paying for it.

Additionally, the purchaser terminal 101 may further generate an additional code to the basic code. The buyer terminal 101 can set rules for generating additional codes (eg, serial number, code classification name, etc.) or directly input them. Additionally, additional code may be added/modified differently from the basic code.

Figure 6 is a diagram showing the relationship between a gift code and a recipient terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to Figure 6, when the quantity is set for gift X purchased by the purchaser terminal 101, the gift code generated for gift This indicates a case in which only one gift code is generated, and B in FIG. 6 indicates a case in which N gift codes are generated as in (2) in B in FIG. 4.

Referring to A in FIG. 6, assume that the buyer terminal 101 has purchased three gifts X. In this case, when the buyer terminal 101 sets to issue one gift code for gift X, three identical gift codes may be issued for gift X. Then, the recipient terminals 1-3 can each obtain the same gift code and register it on the gift code registration page provided by the service providing server 102.

As shown in Figure 6A, if the order quantity for gift A message that registration of the code has been completed, the time when the gift code was registered, information on the recipient terminal 103 that registered the gift code (ex. Information about the user of the recipient terminal 103 (age, region, gender, etc.)), gift code At least one of the registered location, a comment written by the recipient terminal 103 when registering the gift code, and the number of gift codes that have not yet been registered (the number of gift codes that can be registered) may be provided.

Meanwhile, referring to B of FIG. 6, a case is shown where the buyer terminal 101 purchases three gifts X and sets the buyer terminal to issue three gift codes for gift X. In this case, three different gift codes may be issued for gift X. Then, recipient terminals 1-3 can each obtain different gift codes and register them on the gift code registration page provided by the service providing server 102.

As shown in Figure 6B, when the order quantity for gift A message that registration of the gift code has been completed, the time when the gift code was registered, information on the recipient terminal 103 that registered the gift code (ex. Information about the user of the recipient terminal 103 (age, region, gender, etc.)), gift At least one of the following is provided: the location where the code is registered, a comment written by the recipient terminal 103 when registering the gift code, the number of gift codes that have not yet been registered (the number of gift codes that can be registered), and the contents of the unregistered gift code. It can be.

Figure 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a registration phrase for a gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The gift purchase page shown in A of FIG. 7 is a page included in the application where the buyer terminal 101 can purchase a gift and register the gift code secured by the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N, This refers to a page that can be displayed on the display of the buyer terminal 101. Additionally, the gift purchase page shown in A of FIG. 7 may be provided by the service providing server 102.

Referring to A in FIG. 7, the gift code is displayed after the buyer terminal 101 purchases the gift. Referring to FIG. 7, it is assumed that the buyer terminal 101 has ordered 5 gifts. Then, five gift codes corresponding to five gifts may be generated identically or differently from each other, as described in FIG. 6. In A of FIG. 7, “Copy entire code” may be displayed when there are two or more gift codes.

When a plurality of gift codes are generated as shown in A of FIG. 7, the buyer terminal 101 needs to transmit the gift codes through a message or post all of the gift codes on a specific page of the social network. At this time, the service providing server 102 can specify the method (SMS/MMS or instant message) and the recipient terminal 103 for transmitting a message containing a gift code on the gift purchase page shown in A of FIG. 7. An interface where you can input information (phone number or ID) can be provided so that each gift code can be mapped to each other. In addition, when information that allows a gift code to be transmitted to the recipient terminal 103 is entered through the interface, an identifier is displayed or displayed for the gift code to distinguish between a gift code for which the information has been entered and a gift code for which the information has not been entered. You can do it in a different way.

In A of FIG. 7 , when the purchaser terminal 101 selects the “Copy” menu, a copy layer in the form of a template may be displayed as shown in B of FIG. 7 . The copy layer may include gift information, gift code, information about the gift code, and information about the registration page of the gift code along with the registration phrase. The copy layer is provided to the recipient terminal 103 through a message in which the purchaser terminal 101 transmits a gift code to the recipient terminal 103.

In FIG. 7 , when the menu “Copy gift code only” is selected, only the gift code displayed on the copy layer can be copied and provided to the recipient terminal 103. And, when the menu called “Copy entire content” is selected, the entire content of the copy layer can be copied and saved to the clipboard. Contents displayed on the copy layer can be modified/edited at the request of the purchaser terminal 101.

Figure 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of transmitting or posting a gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The gift purchase page shown in A of FIG. 8 is a page included in the application where the buyer terminal 101 can purchase a gift and register the gift code secured by the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N, This refers to a page that can be displayed on the display of the buyer terminal 101. Additionally, the gift purchase page shown in A of FIG. 8 may be provided by the service providing server 102.

Referring to A in FIG. 8, the gift code is displayed after the buyer terminal 101 purchases the gift. Referring to FIG. 8, it is assumed that the buyer terminal 101 has ordered 5 gifts. Then, five gift codes corresponding to the five gifts may be generated identically or differently. When the buyer terminal 101 selects the “Post” menu in A of FIG. 8, an option to post a gift code may be provided as shown in B of FIG. 8. As shown in B of FIG. 8, an interface will be provided to post the gift code directly to the posting page of the social network without accessing the posting page of the social network through the posting page provided by the service providing server 102 where the gift was purchased. You can.

At this time, an interface for selecting a posting option, such as B in FIG. 8, may be provided individually for each of the plurality of gift codes. According to one embodiment of the present invention, when the posting options set for gift codes are the same, an interface may be provided that can apply options already set for a specific gift code to other gift codes individually or collectively. At this time, the options are to post the gift code in a chat room (option: send a chat message), to post the gift code to a social network posting page (option: upload to SNS), or to post the gift code to the buyer's terminal (101) This may include (optionally: entering the URL directly) when publishing to a publishing page of your choice.

When posting a gift code in a chat room, the buyer terminal 101 can set the type of chat application and information on the chat room created in the chat application. For example, the buyer terminal 101 may select and set at least one option from the plurality of options shown in B of FIG. 8 . For example, when the buyer terminal 101 enters chat room information, the gift code is displayed in the chat room as posted directly by the buyer terminal 101, or is displayed as a random ID (or profile) set by the buyer terminal 101. It may be displayed in the chat room as being posted, or it may be displayed in the chat room as being posted by the ID of the representative account set by the service providing server 102 rather than the purchaser terminal 101. In this way, the buyer terminal 101 can select options for publishers displayed in the chat room.

This may be displayed on the posting page as having been posted, or may be displayed on the posting page as having been posted by the ID of the representative account set by the service providing server 102 rather than the purchaser terminal 101. In this way, the purchaser terminal 101 can select options for the publisher displayed on the posting page.

Additionally, if the buyer terminal 101 needs to post a gift code through multiple platforms, chat room information or page information on which to post the gift code can be selected together in the interface shown in B of FIG. 8. If so, rather than selecting a platform as in the interface shown in B of FIG. 8, an interface for creating and editing a post for posting a gift code may be provided.

On the other hand, if the buyer terminal 101 needs to post the same gift repeatedly or in a specific period due to an event or event, the gift code is sent to the recipient terminal by time interval (e.g. weekly, monthly, or specific period) 103) You can set the number of valid registrations, adjust (for example, extend) the registration validity period of the gift code, set the registration validity period differently for each type of platform, or pre-order the same gift. After purchasing a quantity, a set number is posted at a pre-specified time interval (e.g., cycle, month, or specific period), or the same gift is automatically purchased at a pre-specified time according to the order quantity set by the buyer terminal 101. An interface may be provided that includes at least one of the options of posting a gift code corresponding to a gift that is later automatically purchased.

According to B of FIG. 8, the buyer terminal 101 can immediately post the gift code on the posting page through the gift purchase page without accessing the posting page of the specific application, program, or site where the gift code is to be posted. However, before posting on the page, a preview screen of the posting page where the gift code is posted may be provided to the buyer terminal 101. In addition, after an option is selected by the buyer terminal 101 in B of FIG. 8, an interface for registering a fixed phrase to be input along with a gift code may also be displayed.

Figure 9 is a diagram showing order details for a gift according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The gift box page shown in A and B of Figure 9 is a page included in the application where the buyer terminal 101 can purchase a gift and register the gift code secured by the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N. This means a page that can be displayed on the display of the purchaser terminal 101. Additionally, the gift box pages shown in A and B of FIG. 9 may be provided by the service providing server 102.

A in FIG. 9 shows a case where the gift box page is accessed from the application provided by the service providing server 102. On the gift box page, a list of gifts purchased by the buyer terminal 101 may be displayed. The gift box page may display a list of gifts purchased by the buyer terminal 101 for the recipient terminal 103 in addition to the gifts purchased for the purchaser terminal 101. In the case of gifts purchased for the recipient terminal 103, cases provided as gift codes are also included.

For example, in Figure 9A, To. Gift 1 displayed as a code gift indicates a case where the gift is given to a recipient terminal 103 other than the user. The case where a To code gift is displayed indicates a case where the gift purchased by the purchaser terminal 101 is provided to the recipient terminal 103 through a gift code. And gift 2 and gift 3 indicated as to me indicate the case of gifting to the purchaser terminal 101 itself.

At this time, when the “View Details” menu is selected for Gift 1, detailed information about the gift may be provided, as shown in B of FIG. 9. The code registration expiration date means the expiration date by which the recipient terminal 103, which has acquired the gift code, must register the gift code. As shown in FIG. 14, the purchaser terminal 101 orders the gift and payment is completed to receive the gift. It can be calculated from the date the code was created.

And, in B of FIG. 9, the mark (unregistered) indicates the registration status of the gift code. For example, the registration status of a gift code can be classified as unregistered, registered, or unusable. Non-registration means that even if the recipient terminal 103 secures the gift code, such as by receiving or copying the gift code, the gift code is entered and registered on the gift code registration page provided by the service providing server 102. Registration completion means that the recipient terminal 103 registers the gift code by entering the gift code on the gift code registration page provided by the service providing server 102. Unusable means that the purchaser terminal 101 cancels the purchase of the gift or the recipient terminal 103 rejects the gift.

When selecting the “Copy” menu in B of FIG. 9, a copy layer may be provided as shown in B of FIG. 7. When selecting the “nickname setting” menu in B of FIG. 9, the purchaser terminal 101 transmitting the gift code can input a name arbitrarily set. Then, it is difficult for the recipient terminal 103 to recognize that the gift code was sent by the purchaser terminal 101, and the gift code can be processed anonymously by recognizing it as being sent by a user corresponding to the name arbitrarily set by the purchaser terminal 101. .

Figure 10 is a diagram illustrating the process of registering a gift code according to the registration phrase of the gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

A in FIG. 10 represents a message delivered from the buyer terminal 101, and B represents a gift code registration page. The gift code registration page is a page included in the application where the buyer terminal 101 can purchase a gift and register the gift code secured by the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N. The recipient terminal 103 ) refers to a page that can be displayed on the display. Additionally, the gift code registration page shown in B of FIG. 10 may be provided by the service providing server 102.

Referring to A in FIG. 10, it is assumed that the recipient terminal 103 has received a message including the copy layer described in B in FIG. 7. At this time, when the recipient terminal 103 selects the registration URL or registration button, a gift code registration page where the gift code can be registered may be displayed, as shown in B of FIG. 10. At this time, an input slot for entering the gift code may be displayed on the gift code registration page. When entering a gift code into the input slot, a valid information message may be displayed regarding whether the gift code is valid.

For example, if the expiration date has expired or the gift code does not exist, a validity notice indicating that an invalid gift code has been entered may be displayed. Additionally, if the same gift code has already been registered within the expiration date, a validity notice indicating that the already registered gift code has been entered may be displayed. As described in FIG. 4, when N order quantities are set for the same gift, the same gift code may be issued for the gift, or different gift codes may be issued depending on the order quantity. At this time, the recipient terminal 103 can obtain a gift by registering a gift code once for the same gift. Therefore, if the recipient terminal 103 registers another gift code issued for the same gift after already registering the gift code, a message indicating that the gift code is not valid may be displayed in the validity information text. Additionally, if another error occurs (for example, if the gift code is entered before the gift order number and gift code are mapped to each other), a message indicating that the gift code cannot be temporarily registered may be displayed.

Meanwhile, when the registration URL is selected in the message in A of FIG. 10, a gift code may be automatically entered into the input slot in B of FIG. 10. And, in A of FIG. 10, the recipient terminal 103 can select a menu called “Confirm Gift” to check the gift corresponding to the gift code. Additionally, the recipient terminal 103 can select a menu called “Receive Gift” to receive a gift corresponding to the gift code.

Figure 11 is a diagram illustrating a process of confirming a gift corresponding to a gift code after registering a gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The gift code registration page shown in A of FIG. 11 is a page included in the application where the buyer terminal 101 can purchase a gift and register the gift code secured by the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N. This means a page that can be displayed on the display of the recipient terminal 103. Additionally, the gift code registration page shown in A of FIG. 11 may be provided by the service providing server 102.

Referring to A in FIG. 11, the recipient terminal 103 can select the “Receive Gift” menu after registering the gift code in the input slot of the gift code registration page. At this time, if the gift code is valid, a message indicating that registration of the gift code has been completed, as shown in B of FIG. 11, and a message allowing you to receive a link to directly access the gift corresponding to the gift code may be displayed. For example, a message that registration of the gift code has been completed may be delivered not only to the recipient terminal 103 but also to the buyer terminal 101.

For example, when registration of the gift code is completed, basic information of the recipient terminal that registered the gift code may be transmitted to the recipient terminal 103 or the service providing server 102. If the gift code is not sent to the recipient terminal 103 through a message, but is posted on a page of a specific application, program, or site provided by a social network application, the buyer terminal 101 determines which gift corresponding to the gift code is. It is difficult to know whether the attribute has been provided to the recipient terminal 103. According to one embodiment of the present invention, when the gift code is posted on the posting page of a specific application, program, or site and registered through a copying process by the recipient terminal 103, basic information (e.g., For example, an interface requesting information (information that specifies the user of the recipient terminal 103, such as age, region, gender, etc.) may be displayed on the recipient terminal 103. In addition, only when basic information is entered is the gift code recognized as valid and registration of the gift code can proceed.

When a link is selected as shown in B of FIG. 11 , a message may be displayed allowing the user to directly access the gift box page of the recipient terminal 103 and check the gift corresponding to the gift code, as shown in C of FIG. 11 . At this time, the sender of the message may be the service providing server 102, and the gift box page may also be provided by the service providing server 102.

The message described in C of FIG. 11 may be provided through a message server connected to the service providing server 102. The ID of the recipient terminal 103 registered in the message server and the ID of the recipient terminal 103 registered in the service providing server may correspond to each other.

Figure 12 is a diagram illustrating the process of confirming a gift corresponding to a gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The gift code registration page shown in A and B of FIG. 12 is included in the application where the buyer terminal 101 can purchase a gift and register the gift code secured by the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N. This refers to a page that can be displayed on the display of the recipient terminal 103. Additionally, the gift code registration page shown in A and B of FIG. 12 may be provided by the service providing server 102.

When a gift code is entered into the input slot of the gift code registration page as shown in A of FIG. 12 and the menu “Confirm Gift” is selected, detailed information about the gift corresponding to the gift code may be displayed as shown in B of FIG. 12. . At this time, the recipient terminal 103 that has confirmed the gift may reject the gift.

At this time, if the gift is rejected, validity may vary depending on the method of generating the gift code. For example, if multiple identical gift codes are generated for a gift while the registration expiration date of the gift code remains, the gift code remains valid even if the recipient terminal 103 rejects the gift. However, even if the registration expiration date of the gift code remains, if different gift codes are generated for the gift and the recipient terminal 103 rejects the gift, the gift code is no longer valid.

Figure 13 is a diagram illustrating the process of entering a password to confirm a gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The gift purchase page shown in A and B of Figure 13 is included in the application where the buyer terminal 101 can purchase a gift and register the gift code secured by the recipient terminals 103-1 to 103-N. A page refers to a page that can be displayed on the display of the purchaser terminal 101. Additionally, the gift purchase page shown in A and B of FIG. 13 may be provided by the service providing server 102.

13A illustrates that when the recipient terminal 103 enters a gift code into the input slot of the gift code registration page, the purchaser terminal 101 sets to additionally input a password corresponding to the gift code. do. Then, as shown in B of FIG. 13, the buyer terminal 101 can register the Y-digit password corresponding to the gift code. Then, the recipient terminal 103 must input the password corresponding to the gift code in addition to inputting the gift code into the input slot of the gift code registration page for the validity of the gift code to be recognized. The password can be shared between the purchaser terminal 101 and the recipient terminal 103 through separate means.

Figure 14 is a diagram illustrating a process of receiving a gift at a purchaser terminal during the registration validity period of a gift code according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 14, the case where the gift code is registered within the gift code registration expiration date for registering the gift code and the recipient terminal 103 receives the gift and the case where it does not receive the gift will be described.

When the buyer terminal 101 purchases a gift, the gift code registration expiration date is set for a certain period from the date the gift was ordered. The gift code registration expiration date can be set to be the same as the period for entering the delivery address for the gift. When the gift code registration expiration date has elapsed, a notification that the gift code registration expiration date has elapsed may be provided to the purchaser terminal 101 from the service providing server 102.

When the purchaser terminal 101 purchases a gift and a gift code for the gift is generated, the gift code registration expiration date proceeds. At this time, assume that N gift codes have been generated for the gift. At this time, the buyer terminal 101 can cancel the gift purchased within the expiration date of the exchange voucher. Additionally, the recipient terminal 103 may also reject the gift within the expiration date of the exchange voucher.

In case of CASE 1, it represents the case where N gift codes are all registered within the gift code registration validity period. The buyer terminal 101 may receive a notification from the service providing server 102 indicating that the recipient terminal 103 has received a gift. Additionally, the gift box page of the recipient terminal 103 may be updated with gifts corresponding to the registered gift code.

In case of CASE 2, it represents a case where N gift codes are not all registered within the gift code registration validity period. In case of CASE 2, after the gift code registration expiration date has elapsed, the purchaser terminal 101 may receive a notification from the service providing server 102 about automatic cancellation of the purchase of the gift and a full refund.

In case of CASE 3, N gift codes are partially registered and others are not registered within the gift code registration validity period. In CASE 3, after the gift code registration expiration date has elapsed, the purchaser terminal 101 automatically cancels the purchase of an unregistered gift from the service provision server 102 and requests a partial refund for the unregistered gift. You can receive notifications.
