Product integrated payment system for unmanned highway fare payment {INTERGRATED PAYMENT SYSTEM OF PRODUCT FOR PAY UNMANNED HIGHWAY FEE}

The present invention relates to a product integrated payment system for unmanned highway fare payment capable of performing the sale of payment products, charge of fare, and payment of unpaid fare for expressway with vehicle information searched through vehicle information.

In general, there are two methods used to pay tolls for traveling on expressways at home and abroad.The on-site payment system pays directly at the site as a payment method, and a payment terminal at the same time as passing through the expressway using an internal payment terminal. It can be divided into an unmanned fee collection system that is paid through communication. In the case of the unmanned fare collection system, labor and operating expenses are not separately consumed because no separate manpower is required, and because of the characteristic that payment is made simply by passing through the place where the unmanned fare collection system is installed, there is no need to stop while driving on the highway. As it can be solved, the use situation is increasing around the world.

In particular, in Korea, the Korea Expressway Transportation Corporation operates an unmanned fare collection system, and the collection system is used under the brand “Hi-Pass”. In the case of the high pass, due to the advantage of being able to pay tolls while driving without stopping when traveling on domestic expressways, as of 2019, a total of 760 toll gates were installed and operated, and the high pass usage rate of expressway vehicles was also in early 2009. As of June 2019, it has increased by 41%, and the utilization rate is confirmed to be close to 82%.

In the unmanned toll collection system such as the above high pass, a payment terminal for payment is installed inside the vehicle, and a card for toll collection is installed inside the installation terminal, so that the payment terminal communicates while passing through the road where the unmanned toll collection system is installed. It is being used as a system to pay the amount inside the card through.

In most cases, payment terminals for use in unmanned fee collection systems are operated with payment products such as payment cards inserted inside. These payment terminals are devices that determine the tolls to be paid when using the expressway through communication with the unmanned toll collection system, and payment terminals, i.e. payment cards, are charged with a set amount inside or connected to a bank account, etc. It is a product to pay the amount to pay the toll determined through communication.

However, the sale of such payment terminals or payment products and charging of the payment products are not carried out in one place, but in separate places. This is because expressway tolls are calculated differently according to vehicle load information, and because payment terminals that determine such toll fees are different for each vehicle load information, it is impossible to uniformly sell them at kiosks or seller vending machines. On the other hand, since payment products with a simple amount of money such as a payment card, etc., can be charged uniformly at kiosks or vending machines, users have difficulty in separately purchasing payment terminals and purchasing or charging payment products. have.

In addition, the highway unmanned toll collection system generally does not have a structure for blocking vehicle entry such as a circuit breaker for the original purpose of solving traffic designations. Therefore, even a vehicle without a payment terminal or a vehicle equipped with a payment terminal can pass through the highway unmanned toll collection system without permission even in the case of a vehicle with an amount less than the toll charged in the payment product. However, in this case, the unmanned expressway toll collection system may check the vehicle number of the vehicle, set the unpaid rate for the expressway toll in the vehicle registration information, and request that the unpaid rate be paid to the borrower later.

Since it is difficult for a vehicle driver to check in real time how much money has been charged in his or her payment product, in this case, the unpaid fee can be paid by itself. However, in general, in order to pay the unpaid fees, vehicle information is required. Therefore, the unpaid fees must be paid by directly accessing the unpaid fees system using a PC or a personal terminal.

That is, the vehicle driver not only causes inconvenience as the purchase of an unmanned highway fare payment terminal to be installed on the vehicle, purchase or charging of payment products such as payment cards, and payment of unpaid charges are all performed in a separate place. In addition, there is a problem that space for product sales or charging is separately set, resulting in wasted space and rental fees, and store operating expenses or labor costs for sales.

In order to solve the above problems, unmanned highway toll payment can be performed through a single kiosk to purchase a payment terminal for unmanned payment of highway tolls, purchase and charge products for payment, and pay unpaid highway tolls for vehicles. It aims to provide an integrated payment system for products.
