Description

E-Commerce System Based on Intranet and Its Operation Method {E-Commerce System Based to Intranet}

The present invention relates to a method for operating an e-commerce system based on an intranet, and specifically, a system for enabling e-commerce based on an intranet within a company to establish a separate membership procedure for individual operation sites for product purchase. The present invention relates to an electronic commerce system based on an intranet implemented to prevent unnecessary personal information exposure and a user's credit card number exposure by eliminating the need to authenticate a user's identity, and an operation method thereof.

More specifically, by setting up a separate customized shopping mall in an intranet-based closed space, members of the community who use intranets between communities can conveniently shop online without exposing personal information, and purchase items for the community. The present invention relates to an intranet-based electronic commerce system and its operation method which can generate profits through the drastic improvement of the logistics cost added to online shopping by sending.

At present, the Internet is in the spotlight as a huge and efficient information storage medium and information providing medium connected with numerous computer networks all over the world, and the number of Internet-connected networks and the number of Internet users are rapidly increasing. Commerce is spreading rapidly.

In general, the e-commerce model through the Internet is firstly a shopping mall between a company and a consumer such as Amazon (www.amazon.com) and an Internet department store, and a second eBay (www.eBay.com) and auction (www.auction.co.kr Such as auction or reverse auction type, co-purchase form that recruits buyers to purchase the product at the third price, fourth import / export, material purchase, bidding, etc. .

In the conventional e-commerce model of this type, the purchase path of a product generally takes the form of directly moving to a shopping mall site that sells the product to be purchased, selecting a desired product category, and then purchasing the product. have.

Therefore, the user's identity must be authenticated through a separate membership on a separate operation site, and if a user wants to purchase a product, the purchase can be completed only after the payment process such as the user's credit card number or online deposit is required. Personal information is exposed to the user, and the credit card number of the user is also exposed to unwanted outsiders, which prevents users from shopping safely.

In addition, when the purchase confirmation is confirmed, the shopping mall operator acquires the goods purchased by the user, passes them to the user through packaging and shipping, and the logistics cost of the courier service is about 2,500 won per case. This results in a considerable cost in specialized shopping malls (CDs, books, games, etc.) that deal with inexpensive products.

As a result, in the case of an internet shopping mall that deals with low-cost products, it is difficult to make a pure profit through the sales of the shopping mall due to the excessive logistics cost, even though the labor cost and rent are not paid as in the offline manner. Instead of charging the user with the logistics cost separately or with the logistics cost, the result is an increase in the overall purchase price of the product.

Therefore, when purchasing a desired product online from the user's point of view, since the logistics cost is determined separately from the product price, it is often more expensive than the offline purchase or the price does not differ much. Thereby, there is a tendency to buy more goods or rather to buy goods online in order not to pay the logistics cost.

Therefore, there is a need for a new e-commerce model in which the shortcomings of the conventional e-commerce model are eliminated.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, by setting up a separate custom shopping mall in the intranet-based closed space to enable e-commerce based on the intra-net intranet by the members of the community using the intranet between the community The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intranet-based electronic commerce system and its operation method that enable convenient shopping without exposing personal information online.

Another object of the present invention is to generate a profit through the drastic reduction of the logistics cost added to the online shopping by sending a purchased product to the corresponding community when purchasing the product, and further reduce the product purchase price through the reduction of the logistics cost online The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intranet-based e-commerce system and its operation method for activating e-commerce.

Yet another object of the present invention is that if a member of a member purchases a product in an intranet-based shopping mall, since the data remains, it is possible to apply a postpaid payment of a payment at the time of purchase, making it easier to purchase and to increase sales. It aims to provide an intranet based e-commerce system and its operation method.
