In addition, the local commerce linkage program provides a local commerce linkage service that links goods distributors with multiple partner companies. At this time, the goods distributor and each affiliated company participating in the local commerce linkage service are entities that have agreed in advance to provide the local commerce linkage service according to the present invention, and this local commerce linkage service is only available within entities for which such agreement has been completed. provided.

The local commerce linkage program issues the first coupon for affiliated companies and executes it on the consumer terminal according to each consumer's purchase performance of goods from the goods distribution company collected through the goods distribution management system 200 managed by the goods distributor. Provided for integrated applications. At this time, the first coupon includes information on available affiliate companies, period of use, discount rate, or conditions for additional goods provided free of charge in addition to the goods being traded. The specific discount conditions of these discount coupons are determined by each affiliate company. It can be set directly through an integrated application or determined by pre-set conditions during the negotiation process for local commerce linkage services. In addition, the local commerce linkage program manages information on which consumer the first coupon was issued to through a database and uses it later when carrying out the authentication process for the first coupon.

In addition, the local commerce linkage program collects information on the purchase performance of goods from affiliated companies based on consumers' first coupons, and according to the occurrence of product purchase performance at affiliated companies, second coupons for goods distributors or affiliated companies are provided. The first coupon is issued and provided to the integrated application. At this time, the second coupon includes information on available product distributors or affiliated companies, period of use, discount rate, or conditions for additional goods provided free of charge in addition to the goods being traded, and the specific discount conditions of these discount coupons. It can be set directly by the goods distributor or each affiliated company through an integrated application, or can be determined by pre-set conditions during the negotiation process for local commerce linkage services. In addition, the local commerce linkage program manages information on which consumer the second coupon was issued to through a database and uses it later when carrying out the authentication process for the second coupon.

According to this structure, consumers who have a history of purchasing goods from a goods distribution company will be provided with the first coupon that can be used at an affiliated company participating in a local commerce linkage service, so based on the first coupon, consumption at the affiliated company An increase can be expected. In addition, as consumption at affiliated companies increases, second coupons that can be used at the goods distributor or first coupons that can be used at other affiliated companies are provided, so based on the first coupon or second coupon, the goods distributor Alternatively, an increase in consumption can be expected from affiliated companies.

At this time, in order to further encourage the circulation of coupons, when issuing the first coupon according to the product purchase performance at the affiliated company, among the plurality of affiliated companies, the affiliated company with the product purchase performance that induced the issuance of the first coupon is selected. The first coupon that can be used at all other affiliated companies is issued. For example, when issuing the first coupon based on the consumption of goods at affiliate A, the flow of consumption can be more actively encouraged by issuing the first coupon that can be used in all affiliate companies except affiliate A. .

Meanwhile, product purchase records from a product distribution company can be collected through the product distribution management system 200. Through the integrated application, each consumer's membership registration information is collected, and this is linked with the membership information of the goods distribution management system 200, so that information on each consumer's purchase performance at the goods distribution company can be confirmed in real time. When issuing the first coupon, the coupon is issued based on each consumer's purchase performance at the goods distribution company collected through the goods distribution management system 200. At this time, all first coupons may be issued as long as there is a purchase record, or the degree of discount of the first coupon may be set differently depending on the size of the purchase record.

Next, we look at the process of collecting product purchase performance from affiliated companies. Product purchase performance from affiliated companies can be collected through sales management terminals (POS devices or kiosk devices, etc.) deployed at each affiliated company, or in various forms through integrated applications on consumer terminals. In other words, an authentication function for the first coupon is added to the POS device deployed at each affiliated company, the POS device and the platform server 100 are linked, and an authentication procedure for the first coupon is performed when the payment procedure for goods is performed. By performing this, information on product purchase performance at affiliated companies based on the first coupon can be collected. For example, the barcode for the first coupon is identified through a barcode scanner connected to the POS device, and the identified number is transmitted to the platform server 100 to request authentication for the first coupon. At this time, the payment information for the product can be matched and sent together with an authentication request for the first coupon, and when the first coupon is issued, the first coupon is sent to a consumer along with the identification information or authentication information of the coupon. Since the information on whether the coupon has been issued is already recorded in the platform server 100, it is possible to use this information to collect information on the purchase performance of goods from affiliated companies based on each consumer's first coupon.

In another embodiment, an authentication function for the first coupon is added to the kiosk device deployed at each affiliated company, the kiosk device and the platform server 100 are linked, and the customer receives the first coupon when ordering and paying through the kiosk. 1 By performing the authentication process for the coupon, information about each consumer's purchase performance of goods at affiliated companies based on the first coupon can be collected. As seen above, at the time of issuing the first coupon, information about which consumer the first coupon was issued to is already recorded in the platform server 100 along with the identification information or authentication information of the corresponding coupon. To the extent that there is one, it is possible to use this to collect information about the purchase performance of goods from affiliated companies based on each consumer's first coupon.

In another embodiment, the consumer can perform a purchase order for goods from each affiliated company through an integrated application of the consumer terminals 400 and 402, and both coupon authentication and payment processing can be performed through the integrated application. . That is, when the first coupon is used during the online ordering and payment process through the integrated application, the product purchase order performance is transmitted to the affiliated company terminal and the platform server 100 through the integrated application along with authentication for the first coupon. Thus, information on product purchase performance from affiliated companies based on the first coupon can be collected.

You can collect information about performance. Looking at this in more detail, when the consumer selects to use the first coupon in the integrated application, a window for entering information about the product transaction for which the discount coupon will be used (name of the product, sales amount, etc.) and an authentication information input window are created. After checking the information about the discount coupon and product transaction presented by the consumer, the manager of the affiliated company enters unique authentication information such as the affiliated company identification ID in the input window, and the authentication number is registered in advance on the platform server (100). If the information matches, coupon authentication is completed. Afterwards, the affiliated company can make payment through its own payment system. Meanwhile, the affiliate company's authentication information can be pre-registered on the platform server 100 through the integrated application, and the authentication information entered through the consumer's integrated application is encrypted and transmitted to the platform server 100, and the platform server 100 ) compares it with the pre-registered authentication information of the affiliated company and transmits the authentication result for use of the first coupon to the consumer terminal. Through this, it is possible to prevent unauthorized users from using the first coupon at the affiliated company or registering transaction results based on a discount coupon that has not been certified by the affiliated company.

In addition, after authentication of the first coupon, the purchase of the product is considered completed, and the consumer who purchased the product can be given the right to enter comments so that he or she can leave feedback about the product.

Meanwhile, the local commerce linkage program matches and stores the identification information of each coupon and the identification number or password set for each affiliate company when issuing the first coupon, and in the authentication step of the first coupon executed on the platform server 100 The coupon may be authenticated through an operation of comparing the identification information of the coupon and the identification information of the first coupon stored in the platform server 100. Alternatively, for more stringent authentication and to collect product purchase records from affiliated companies, the authentication number is entered through the consumer terminal or affiliated company terminal, and the comparison result between the collected authentication number and the password stored on the platform server (100) is provided. Accordingly, authentication processing of the corresponding coupon can be performed.

In addition, the local commerce linkage program matches and stores the identification information of each coupon and the identification information set for each goods distributor when issuing the second coupon, and in the authentication stage of the second coupon, the identification information of the coupon and the platform server (100 ) The corresponding coupon can be authenticated through an operation of comparing the identification information of the second coupon stored in .
