The platform confirms that there is user loading information that matches the vehicle identification information, notifies the users in the car of the order information required by the store for payment confirmation, and the cloud platform receives the user's payment information to authenticate and authorize the payment system, and returns the payment result to the store system And mobile devices; the store system can provide services to users after receiving payment notifications. In this way, users can avoid the inconvenience of having to get off the queue and change the cash when they consume, and can also avoid the risk of misappropriation when the store obtains the user's personal payment information.

Description

   System and method for in-vehicle payment   

The invention belongs to a system and method for in-vehicle payment, which can avoid the inconvenience of users having to get out of the queue and change when they consume, and can also avoid the risk of misappropriation when the store obtains the user's personal payment information.

Take a Taiwan patented vehicle positioning system and electronic toll architecture, patent number: TW 200705318 as an example. It is an expressway electronic toll collection method. After sensing the roadside equipment through a vehicle terminal and obtaining the vehicle position, the toll is calculated directly by the vehicle. The terminal chip card deducts the cost, but the terminal chip card for the car must be stored in advance, and the fee dispute will be caused when the user is not the owner.

A patented parking method in Taiwan. Patent number: TW 454160 as an example. The user must dial the back-end parking server with a mobile phone and enter the parking time and car number information. After the back-end parking server calculates the fee, The user deducts the account in advance, but the user must enter the consumption information by himself, and the back-end parking server can calculate the cost, which is quite inconvenient.

Another Chinese patented car phone for road toll road information parking toll navigation method and system, patent number: CN101536043 as an example, is based on the car phone signal entering / leaving the mobile phone network base station range as the basis for road toll calculation. A car phone is bound to an account in advance to charge for road expenses. However, when the user is not the owner of the car, it will also cause cost disputes. It can only define the range of mobile phone network base stations where the vehicle is used during consumption, which is difficult to promote to general commercial applications. .

To sum up the above patents as an example, all of the systems must be designated by the user in advance, and it will cause cost disputes when the user is not the owner, which is extremely inconvenient; furthermore, the above patents are for the payment of the transportation costs themselves and cannot be promoted To general business applications.

In view of the various shortcomings derived from the above-mentioned conventional methods, the inventor of this case has been eager to improve and innovate. After years of painstaking research, he finally successfully developed a system and method for in-vehicle payment.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention proposes to provide a system and method for in-vehicle payment, a system for in-vehicle payment, which is mainly composed of a mobile device, a store system, a cloud platform, and a payment system. Among them, the mobile device Contains a communication unit for accessing the network, a ride module, for receiving user ride data (which includes a user identification information and a vehicle identification information) and transmitting user ride data to a cloud platform A payment module for receiving an order data and transmitting a payment data (which includes a payment verification data, a payment number) to a cloud platform for payment, a display unit for displaying the order data and payment results; a store The system includes an order module for generating order data (including an order number and a consumption amount) and storing it in the store database, and then transmitting the order data and a vehicle identification information to a cloud platform, and receiving the cloud The platform's payment results and store database are used to store order data and payment results; the cloud platform contains a person-car management module Used to receive and manage user loading data of a mobile device, a transaction module, to receive order information of a store system and a vehicle identification information, and to receive payment information of a mobile device, confirm the identity of the payment user, and send Payment information is sent to the payment system for transaction authorization and payment results are received, and a cloud database is used to store user loading data, order data and payment results; the payment system is used to receive an order data and a payment data, and then verify Validity of payment information and return of payment result of order.

The mobile device may further include an electronic tag unit for storing vehicle identification information for receiving a wireless signal and returning another wireless signal, which includes vehicle identification information, and its store system may further include a tag reading module. Group, can send a wireless signal and receive a wireless signal containing a vehicle identification information; further, its mobile device can include a secure element unit, which can store the user's payment number, and further, its store system can be another It includes a photographing unit to obtain the license plate image by shooting; and a vehicle number recognition module to receive the license plate image and identify the vehicle identification information from the license plate image.

The access network is the Internet or other structures that can be connected to the Internet. Its payment verification data is to confirm the identity of the payment user. It can be set in advance by the user on the cloud platform or calculated by the user's identification information. The platform compares the payment verification data corresponding to the user identification information of the user's ride information with the payment verification data sent by the mobile device to confirm that the sub-payment is authorized by the rider; of which the cloud platform is the payment number that receives the payment information. Its cloud database fetches the payment account corresponding to the payment number, and sends the payment data containing the payment account to the payment system. Among the payment modules, the payment number can be manually entered by the user, stored in the payment module in advance, or read from the mobile device. The payment number in the previous hardware component, where the hardware component is a secure component unit; where the vehicle identification information is a license plate number, an electronic label number, or an identification value that can identify the vehicle; where the user identification information is an identity ID number, phone number or identification value that can identify the user; Human cart management module, the user pre-set according to personal portfolio to determine whether the bearer is a legitimate bearer information.

A method for in-vehicle payment includes: transmitting a user's riding information to a cloud platform using a mobile device; identifying a vehicle used by a consumer user; requesting payment based on order information and vehicle identification information of a consumer user; confirming that the vehicle identification information is consistent User loading information; receiving orders and making payments through mobile devices and cloud platforms; the cloud platform authorizes payment to the payment system, and the store system and mobile devices obtain results.

The above-mentioned user loading information includes vehicle identification information and user identification information.

Compared with other conventional technologies, the system and method for in-vehicle payment provided by the present invention have the following advantages:

1. The present invention maintains the connection between the user and the vehicle. When the store requests payment, the user in the vehicle can be notified, so the user can easily complete the payment without getting off the vehicle.

2. Different from the previous vehicle using a single payment account for debit, the relationship between the payer and the car of the present invention is dynamically established in the car. This can be achieved: different payment accounts can be used by different people.

It can be confirmed that the payer is in the car and the transaction is undeniable.

3. Stores cannot obtain user payment account information, reducing the risk of misappropriation.
