Description

ONLINE TICKET HAVING HIDDEN CODE}

The present invention relates to an online license having a hidden code, and more particularly, to an online license having a hidden code providing a lottery winning sign and a serial code for use of an online service together with a site address.

Recently, with the spread of high-speed communication, Internet users are increasing rapidly. In addition, in line with this, service providers through the Internet are springing up, and these Internet service providers are making great efforts to create a profit model in various ways.

Revenue models include commissions for brokering e-commerce transactions or advertising revenue through banner advertisements. However, recently, a method of securing fixed revenues from service users by paying part or all of services is being widely spread.

This tendency is especially prominent in game service companies, which require that users pay a monthly fee or pay-as-you-go service by establishing a system in which multiple users can simultaneously play network games in real time.

The payment method using the monthly fee is a method of billing the user the same amount per month, the pay-as-you-go method is a method of billing the amount corresponding to the actual use time by checking the user's use time. In general, the monthly or pay-as-you-go method requires a credit card number to the user for the security of transactions, or a method in which the service usage amount is automatically settled monthly from the user's account through automatic transfer. However, since the main customer base of services such as Internet games is mainly in the low age group who do not have a credit card, the payment method using a credit card is not effective at all. Also, students of this age usually do not use bank transactions, so direct debit is also ineffective. Moreover, such a conventional payment method may cause a conflict between a user and a service provider due to a receivable problem.

In order to solve this problem, recently, a service such as a coupon or a ticket with a certain serial code is sold to an Internet service user, and the user can use the service for a time or period corresponding to the price of the license. A way of doing so was introduced. The user who purchased the license can use the service for a predetermined time or for a predetermined period of time using the serial code of the license.

The use of such licenses is particularly active in online game companies. Recently, game service companies have started to sell the game service licenses in a package form along with storage media containing game programs and service access programs.

However, such a conventional online license is exposed to the serial code necessary to use the service as it is, there is a high risk of theft in the distribution and sales process. In addition, the conventional online use right simply contains a serial code, so that only the user who is interested in the service feels possessive and does not enjoy the publicity effect at all.

Paid Internet service providers, including online game companies, are one of the biggest challenges in getting more users to use their services, so the right to use the online service is not just a serial code printed media but can be interesting. There is still a need to make it more appealing to the user.

The present invention was devised to solve the above problems, and prints and provides a lottery winning sign and a character drawing together with a site address for providing an online service and a serial code for using the online service, thereby providing greater interest to the user. Its purpose is to provide an online license with hidden codes that can be triggered.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide an online license having a hidden code that a user can attach to a wallet or a computer by making such an online license in the form of a sticker.

The following drawings attached to this specification are illustrative of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and together with the detailed description of the present invention to serve to further understand the technical spirit of the present invention, the present invention is a matter described in such drawings It should not be construed as limited to.
