It is a flowchart showing an example.

A computer-implemented commerce service system may be configured in the computer device 200 according to the present embodiment. For example, the commerce service system may be implemented in the form of a program that operates independently, or may be implemented in the form of an in-app of a specific application to enable operation on the specific application.

Based on a command provided by an application installed in the computer device 200 , the commerce service system implemented in the computer device 200 may perform the commerce service method illustrated in FIG. 4 .

In order to perform the commerce service method according to FIG. 4 , the processor 220 of the computer device 200 includes a relationship setting unit 310 , a product management unit 320 , and a product transaction as shown in FIG. 3 as components. It may include a unit 330 . Depending on the embodiment, components of the processor 220 may be selectively included or excluded from the processor 220 . Also, according to an embodiment, the components of the processor 220 may be separated or merged to express the functions of the processor 220 .

The processor 220 and components of the processor 220 may control the computer device 200 to perform steps S410 to S430 included in the commerce service method of FIG. 4 . For example, the processor 220 and components of the processor 220 may be implemented to execute instructions according to the code of the operating system included in the memory 210 and the code of at least one program.

The processor 220 may read a necessary command from the memory 210 in which the command related to the control of the computer device 200 is loaded. In this case, the read command may include a command for controlling the processor 220 to execute steps S410 to S430 to be described later.

Referring to FIG. 4 , in step S410 , the relationship setting unit 310 may set a relationship (hereinafter, referred to as a 'commerce relationship') to be applied to commerce within the community by using the relationship established between users in the community. The relationship setting unit 310 may set a commerce relationship corresponding to the user's market activity range. For example, the relationship setting unit 310 may set a first-degree relationship between a user and a friend on a community and a second-degree relationship between the user's first-degree friend and a friend relationship as a commerce relationship with the user. Furthermore, the relationship setting unit 310 may also add a third-degree or higher-degree relationship that is a friend relationship with a second-degree friend of the user to the commerce relationship. As another example, the relationship setting unit 310 may set a commerce relationship according to user settings. The relationship setting unit 310 may set the commerce relationship in units of friends or ranks selected by the user in the user's community relationship. For example, the user may set the market activity of at least one of his/her sales and purchase history to be disclosed only to a first-degree friend or a specific friend among first-degree friends. According to an embodiment, it is also possible to set a target to be excluded from the commerce relationship, that is, a target to hide the user's market activity, in units of friends or relatives. As described above, it is possible not only to set the user's market activity range to a partial public form, but also to set it to a full public form on the community according to user settings. In this case, in the case of full disclosure, anonymity among users can be guaranteed.

In addition, the relationship setting unit 310 may manage relationship intimacy with a friend (hereinafter, referred to as a 'commerce friend') in a commerce relationship with the user based on the transaction details through the commerce platform. In this case, the relationship intimacy refers to the strength of a relationship between a user and a commerce friend, and may be used to determine a friend ranking or a product ranking in the commerce platform. For example, relationship intimacy is a transaction history including the number of transactions indicating how many or often transactions were made, the last transaction time indicating how recently transactions were made, and rating information indicating how many positive reviews were received as reviews related to the transaction. can be determined in proportion to

In step S420 , the product management unit 320 may manage products on the commerce platform within the community based on the commerce relationship. Each product registered on the commerce platform may be managed in connection with the user information registered for the product, and the commerce relationship may be checked through the user information. The commerce relationship of the corresponding user may be collectively applied to all products of the user, and according to the embodiment, it is also possible to set the commerce relationship in units of products. In other words, in the product registration process, product disclosure and transaction scope may be individually set. In this case, the product management unit 320 may filter products on the commerce platform by using the commerce relationship. For example, the product management unit 320 may select and expose a product of a commerce friend among products registered on the commerce platform. As another example, the product management unit 320 may support product filtering that specifies a transaction type or rank among products of a commerce friend. The transaction type may be divided into a transaction for wishing to sell a product and a transaction for wishing to purchase a product. Furthermore, the product management unit 320 may manage the product selected by the user from among the products of the commerce friend as an introduction product that can be exposed to other people through at least one route.

The product management unit 320 may perform monitoring for product inspection and sanctions. For example, the product management unit 320 may monitor keywords input in the product registration process and apply a registration prohibition sanction when a predetermined forbidden word is input. As another example, the product management unit 320 may apply a predetermined sanction based on a report on a product or user account registered in the commerce platform. The product management unit 320 may temporarily suspend the market activity of the corresponding account or send a warning notification if the cumulative number of reports to the user account is more than a certain number of times. can be stopped The product management unit 320 may delete the posting of the product or switch to a non-tradable state if the cumulative number of reports on the product is more than a certain number of times. Market activity may be permanently suspended.

The product management unit 320 may provide an evaluation function for a user who uses the commerce platform, and the evaluation function may include a user evaluation and a system evaluation. User evaluation is evaluation by other users, and mutual evaluation of sellers and buyers is possible. A user evaluation function is provided regardless of whether a transaction is completed, but evaluation information through a transaction completion review can be distinguished through transaction authentication, etc. In addition, the system evaluation may be made based on the number of products registered on the commerce platform, the ratio of transaction completion products to the registered products, transaction satisfaction according to user evaluation, the cumulative number of reports, the cumulative number of sanctions, and the like.

In step S430 , the product transaction unit 330 may provide an interface for product transaction using a chat function provided by the community. The product transaction unit 330 may provide a chatting screen with a user who has registered the product as a product transaction screen when the user desires to trade with respect to a product on the commerce platform. In this case, the product transaction unit 330 may deliver product information registered on the commerce platform to be exposed in the form of a message on the chatting screen when the user enters the chatting screen for the product for which the user wishes to trade. In addition, the product transaction unit 330 may also use the chat function of the community as an interface for introducing the product of the commerce friend to others.

The product transaction unit 330 may provide an anonymous transaction as well as an acquaintance transaction according to the setting range of the commerce relationship. When the commerce relationship is set to be partially disclosed, the community's one-on-one chat room as an acquaintance transaction may be provided as an interface for product transaction. On the other hand, when the commerce relationship is set to a public form, anonymity can be guaranteed by providing an openchat chat room that can chat without the process of adding friends using a phone number or ID as an interface for product transaction. An anonymized profile may be applied instead of a personal profile in an open chat chat room of such an anonymous transaction.
