In addition, the coupon generation intermediation server 30 receives the coupon authentication request from the merchant terminal 20 that received the coupon from the member, performs a coupon authentication for the coupon authentication request from the merchant terminal and the authentication result coupon issuer server It is desirable to be able to transmit to 40. At this time, the coupon authentication result is to be notified to the merchant terminal 20.

Typically, the coupon issuing mediation server 30 is preferably a payment gateway (PG) server that performs the payment brokerage service so as to maintain the existing electronic payment infrastructure (VAN, etc.), but is not limited thereto. There is no need.

The coupon issuer server 40 is a terminal owned by an issuer of a coupon that can be used to purchase a predetermined product or service, for example, a social commerce company or a coupon specialized issuer (for example, Mr Tong) on the web. At the request of the issuance mediation server 30 or voluntarily, the coupon issuance is performed and details of the issued coupon are provided to the coupon issuance mediation server 30. The coupon issuer server 40 may typically promote a coupon on a wired or wireless Internet, and operate a predetermined homepage so that members can download it.

Hereinafter, the coupon issuing process on the network using the coupon issuance mediation and authentication system according to the present invention with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 2, the coupon issuance mediation server 30 includes a process of receiving a coupon issuance request from the affiliated store terminal 20 and requesting the coupon issuance from the coupon issuance server 40.

That is, through step 201, the coupon issuance mediation server 30 receives a request for coupon issuance from the affiliated store terminal 20.

In step 202, the coupon issuance mediation server 30 requests coupon issuance to the coupon issuance server 40 in response to a request of the merchant terminal 20.

To publicize.

Therefore, the member who confirms the coupon issuance can request the coupon issuance server 40 to his or her terminal 10 and download it to be used in the payment process of the product later.

In addition, the coupon issuance mediation server 30 may perform the task of authenticating the validity of the coupon at the request of the merchant terminal for the coupon issued by the procedure of Figure 2, which will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. Let's do it.

In step 301, the coupon issuance server 40 transmits the details of the coupon issued to the coupon issuance mediation server (30). Such details include coupon identification code, coupon issuance, coupon issuance date, coupon expiration date, etc. Accordingly, the details of the coupons issued for each coupon issuance are registered in the database (DB) of the coupon issuance mediation server 30.

In step 303, the coupon is presented to the affiliated store terminal 20 through the member terminal 10, and the coupon stored in the member terminal 10 is input to the affiliated store terminal 20. The input of the coupon may differ depending on the issuance form of the coupon. For example, if the issue type of the coupon is a number, letter or various symbols, it is inputted directly to the terminal by a key-in method, and in the case of a barcode type, it is input to the terminal through a barcode reader, or NFC in the case of an electronic wallet. Readers can be used.

In step 304, the merchant terminal 20 requests coupon authentication by accessing the coupon issuance intermediation server 30 to authenticate the validity of the input coupon. In this case, since the merchant terminal 20 requests coupon authentication for only one coupon issuance mediation server 30, there is no need to request authentication by individually connecting to the coupon issuance server 40, and the coupon issuance server has its own authentication system. There is no need to build it.

In step 305, the coupon issuance mediation server 30 performs authentication on the coupon received from the affiliated store terminal 20. At this time, the coupon authentication process includes a process of comparing the coupon previously received from the coupon generator server 40 through the step 301 and the coupon received from the merchant terminal 20 in this step.

Therefore, if these two coupons are matched with each other and the use is recognized as valid (such as within the expiration date), then they are considered valid coupons, otherwise they are deemed unusable coupons.

According to this, the coupon issuance mediation server 30 receives all coupon issuance coupons from all the coupon issuance server 40 and stores them in a DB so that the member may attempt to apply the coupon discount repeatedly for an illegal purpose. To check and block it.

In step 306, the coupon issuance mediation server 40 transmits an authentication result to the coupon issuance server 40. As a result, the coupon issuing server 40 can check the use of the coupon issued by the user and use it to establish a future issue plan for the coupon.

In addition, the brokers who issue coupons can receive the coupon details from the coupon issuers and automatically authenticate the coupons on behalf of the affiliated stores, thereby making it easy to issue and authenticate the coupons.

Furthermore, the existing coupon issuer can prevent certification errors due to manual certification or missing certificate, and it is not necessary to establish a separate certification system to verify the validity of the coupon, thereby minimizing development cost and further preventing duplicate investment. Social costs can be minimized, and merchants can easily check for duplicate or fraudulent use of coupons and use existing card terminals or POS terminals without additional PC equipment.
