The buyer can select an item of interest using the terminal, and information related to the item of interest may be displayed on a cart page as shown in FIG. 2. Hereinafter, as an example, a situation is assumed where the buyer selects item X and item Y as items of interest.

Area 210 may display information indicating that rocket delivery can be provided if additional items worth 9,200 won or more are ordered in addition to item X and item Y. Here, rocket delivery can respond to a delivery service that delivers within a faster time than regular delivery.

Rocket delivery is a delivery service that is applied when the order price satisfies a preset price standard. For example, as shown in Figure 2, it may be a delivery service that is applied when an additional 9,200 won is ordered in addition to item X and item Y.

The cart page may display information related to the item selected as the item of interest in a certain area of the screen based on a preset order. For example, areas 221 and 231 of the cart page display information related to the name of the item in a preset order, and areas 223 and 233 display information related to the item's options according to a preset order. , areas 225 and 235 display information related to the delivery of items according to a preset order, areas 227 and 237 display information related to the price of the item according to a preset order, and areas 229 and 239 can display information related to points accumulated when ordering the corresponding item in a preset order. At this time, the order of information displayed in each area can be preset, and the size of each area can be set in advance in consideration of the displayed information. Additionally, the text size, text font, and text color for the displayed information can be set in advance. For example, the price-related information displayed in areas 227 and 237 may have a relatively larger text size than the point-related information displayed in areas 229 and 239, and the size of areas 227 and 237 may also be larger. may be relatively larger than the size of the regions 229 and 239.

Specifically, areas 221 and 231 may display information related to the name corresponding to the item selected by the buyer as an item of interest. For example, area 221 may display the name of item Additionally, areas 223 and 233 may display information related to options corresponding to the item of interest selected by the buyer. Here, information related to options may include information related to items that can be selected when purchasing an item, such as the size, color, and type of the item. For example, area 223 may display the size corresponding to the item of interest It can be displayed as information related to .

According to an embodiment, the information related to the name and options of the item of interest displayed on the cart page may be displayed in different areas by dividing the information related to the name and options displayed in the same area on the item detail page (Single Detail Page, SDP). there is. Here, the item detail page is a page that displays detailed information about the item provided in the step before the cart page in the process of searching and purchasing an item, and the buyer decides whether to purchase the item based on the information confirmed on the item detail page. You can decide. At this time, even if information related to the item name and options are displayed in the same area on the item detail page, the electronic device can distinguish them and display them in different areas on the cart page so that the buyer can effectively recognize the related information. The name and options for the item are important information in the buyer's item purchase process, and unlike the item detail page, the convenience of use for the buyer can be improved if they are displayed separately in a different area on the cart page. For example, in the process of searching for and purchasing item Related information can be displayed by dividing into area 221 and area 223. Because of this, the buyer can more efficiently recognize information about item X provided on the cart page.

According to an embodiment, the electronic device may determine whether to display information related to the name and option in different areas by considering the number of texts of the name and option. At this time, the area (221, 231) corresponding to the name is an area whose size has been determined in advance and is relatively larger in size than the other areas (223, 225, 227, 229, 233, 235, 237, 239), and the area ( 221, 231), the size, color, and font of the text displayed can be set in advance. Considering the size of the text, a reference value limiting the number of texts that can be displayed in the corresponding areas 221 and 231 (for example, the number of texts that can be displayed in the area 221 is 15) may be determined. At this time, if the number of texts for information related to the name and options confirmed on the item detail page is more than the standard value, the electronic device can display the information related to the name and options in separate areas on the cart page, and if the number of texts is less than the standard value, the electronic device can display the information related to the name and options in separate areas on the cart page. On a page, information related to names and options can be displayed in the same area without distinction. This is because even if information related to names and options are displayed in the same area without distinction, buyers can efficiently recognize the relevant information considering the number of texts.

For example, the electronic device can check the number of texts representing information related to the name and options for item It can be displayed in areas divided into areas 221 and 223, respectively. For another example, the electronic device can check the number of texts representing information related to the name and options for item Y from the item detail page, and if the number of texts is less than the reference value, unlike FIG. 2, information related to the name and options is displayed. On the cart page, they can be displayed together in area 231 rather than in separate areas 231 and 233. Even if they are displayed together in the area 231, the size of the text corresponding to the information related to the name may be relatively larger than the size of the text corresponding to the information related to the option, which allows the buyer to distinguish between the name of the item displayed together and the option. It can be recognized.

At this time, information related to options to be displayed in area 233 is displayed in area 231 according to the comparison between the number of texts and the reference value, but area 233 is not left empty and information is displayed in area 235. can fill the area 233, and information displayed in the area 237 can fill the area 235, and information displayed in the area 239 can fill the area 237, and the information displayed in the area 239 can fill the area 237, and the information displayed in the area 237 can fill the area 235. 239) can be left empty to manage the layout of the cart page.

Areas 225 and 235 may display information related to delivery of items in a preset order. For example, areas 225 and 235 may display information indicating that if item X and item Y are ordered, they may arrive tomorrow (Tuesday) 12/1.

Areas 227 and 237 may display information related to the price of the item in a preset order. For example, area 227 may display a price of 7,630 won when ordering item Additionally, areas 229 and 239 may display information related to points accumulated when ordering items in a preset order. For example, area 229 may display points accumulated when ordering item

According to the embodiment, the size of the areas 223, 225, 227, 229, 233, 235, 237, and 239 may be determined in advance, and the size, color, and font of the text displayed in the area may be set in advance. there is. For example, the information displayed in the areas 229 and 239 is information related to points to be accumulated and may be displayed in the smallest size, and the information displayed in the areas 227 and 237 is information related to the price and may be displayed in the smallest size. It can be displayed at twice the size of . Therefore, considering the size of the areas 223, 225, 227, 229, 233, 235, 237, and 239 and the size of the text, the number of texts that can be displayed in the area can be set in advance. At this time, the areas 227, 229 and 237, 239 are areas that display information showing similar properties such as price and accumulated points, and, like the areas 221, 223 and 231, 233, the number of texts Related information can also be displayed according to the comparison between the and reference values. For example, as a result of comparison between the number of texts displayed in areas 227 and 229 and the reference value corresponding to area 227, information about accumulated points can be displayed together in area 227 rather than area 229. there is. For another example, as a result of comparison between the number of texts displayed in the areas 237 and 239 and the reference value corresponding to the area 237, the information about accumulated points is not displayed together in the area 237 but is displayed in the area 239. It can be displayed separately. At this time, the way the price and accumulated points are expressed may vary depending on the special event. For example, when doubling the accumulated points is provided as a special event, the size of the text displayed in the area 229 may be determined to correspond to the size of the text displayed in the area 227, and related information may be displayed in the area 227. are not displayed together, but are divided into areas 227 and 229 to display related information. Alternatively, when offering a 1/2 discount price as a special event, the size and color of the text displayed in area 227 may vary, and thus the related information is not displayed together in area 227, but is displayed in area 227. ) and area 229, respectively, and related information can be displayed.
