A shopping mall operating system and method using a shopping cart {System for managing shoppingmall using shopping basket and method thereof}

The present invention relates to a shopping mall operation technology in which a user places a shopping mall product in a shopping cart and discloses it to others, and then provides a predetermined reward to a user of the shopping cart when another user inquires the shopping cart product and purchases the product.

When a user purchases a product using Internet shopping, the user searches for a purchased product through a product search and a shopping mall search.

A user who finds a purchased product searches for the product and finds a shopping mall with the lowest price.

And finally, when you want to purchase a product, refer to product reviews, etc., and make a purchase decision after referring to how useful the product is.

Usually, users who purchase online shopping products cannot directly check the quality and efficacy of products like offline product purchases. As the Internet shopping culture that refers to product reviews of other users develops, these days, shopping malls are induced to actively write product reviews.

As such, as product review registration becomes more common, some side effects are appearing. For example, a seller intentionally leaves only good product reviews and deletes negative product reviews, or hires part-time employees to falsely register good product reviews.

This instills a negative perception among buyers that the quality of the product cannot be trusted when purchasing online products.

On the other hand, there are users who do effective Internet shopping by selecting good products in the vicinity. These users recommend and register information on carefully selected products (eg, prices, shopping malls, product reviews, etc.) through personal blogs, clubs, and community sites. are doing These users, so-called power shopping users, are known to Internet users only through word-of-mouth, exerting great influence on purchasing products, and playing an important role in purchasing decisions of general users.

However, a user who recommends purchasing a product is inconvenient to register product information on a separate site and post an article requesting registration of his or her identification code.

In addition, when a user purchases a recommended product of a recommender, the user must directly register and register the recommender's unique number or must take the inconvenience of accessing the shopping mall through the recommender's registration link.

The present invention was created based on the above point, and when an individual member wants to recommend a product to other purchasing users as a recommender, it is to simplify the purchase recommendation of the product by putting it in his or her shopping cart and setting it public. .

Another object of the present invention is to enable purchasing users to search for products in a publicly set shopping cart in a ranking for each recommender, select a specific recommender, and purchase a product for which price and quality reliability are recommended.

In addition, a user registers a recommendation request for a purchased product, and recommenders inquire about the user's recommendation request information and then register the corresponding recommendation information, so that the user can be provided with customized recommendation information.

Another object of the present invention is to increase intimacy between the user and the recommender by providing a predetermined reward to the recommender who has registered the product in the shopping cart when the purchasing user purchases a product in the public shopping cart.

A shopping mall operating system using a shopping cart according to the present invention for achieving the above object is a shopping mall operating system that receives products in a shopping cart from a recommender terminal and recommends purchases to user terminals using a wired or wireless network. In the above, means for receiving a request for setting the disclosure of the product contained in the shopping cart from the recommender terminal; means for storing the product requested to be disclosed as a recommended product; When a product page is provided at the request of a user terminal, the sales ranking of the recommended product for each recommender is generated by applying a weight to the number of inquiries and purchases, respectively, and then sorted by rank, and the total recommended products for each recommender in the sales ranking of the recommended product means for providing at least one or more pieces of recommended product information including recommender information by displaying the sales rankings in parallel; means for receiving payment information of the recommended product in response to a purchase request from a user terminal and processing the payment; and a means for providing a predetermined reward to the recommender by identifying the recommender information of the recommended product for which payment has been completed, wherein the shopping mall server is configured to provide recommendation information corresponding to the product requested by the user for recommendation. , means for receiving and storing a recommendation request including product information and specific or all recommender information from the user terminal; means for registering the recommended product information corresponding to the user's recommendation requested product by providing the user's recommendation request information to the recommender terminal making the inquiry request; and means for notifying each time a recommended product is registered with the user terminal.
