This incentive granting authorization unit 236 determines whether or not the cash management server 2 has transmitted a notification message to the customer with the customer ID to give the incentive by performing a transaction (payment transaction / withdrawal transaction) to ATM4 of the ATMID. It is determined whether or not a transaction corresponding to the message ID has been performed within the time. If the transaction has been performed, it is determined that the customer with the customer ID has the right to receive the incentive, and the customer ID is output to the account host unit 27 (incentive grant execution unit 273). Thereby, in order for a customer to receive an incentive, an illegal transaction in which a deposit transaction and a withdrawal transaction are repeated many times at ATM 4 cannot be performed.

(Account Host Department 27)
The account host unit 27 includes a transaction information acquisition unit 271, a transaction history DB 272, and an incentive provision execution unit 273.

(Transaction information acquisition unit 271)
The transaction information acquisition unit 271 is a component that acquires information (such as a deposit transaction or a withdrawal transaction) about a transaction performed at the ATM 4 from the ATM cash management unit 22 and stores it in the transaction history DB 272.

(Transaction history DB 272)
The transaction history DB 272 is a component included in a general cash management server 2 that manages ATM4. The transaction history DB 272 includes at least a customer ID of a customer who has made a transaction, and a customer such as a deposit transaction and a withdrawal transaction. Are stored, the ATM ID of the ATM 4 that performed the transaction, and the date and time information when the transaction was performed.

(Incentive grant execution unit 273)
The incentive grant execution unit 273 is a component that grants an incentive amount to the bank account corresponding to the customer ID acquired from the incentive grant authorizing unit 236 (customer ID of the customer who has been granted incentive grant).

  The cash management server 2 is configured by a general computer including a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), an HDD (Hard Disc Drive), and the like (not shown). It can be realized by a program that causes a computer to function as each means described above.

The ATM communication unit 221, the response policy DB 222, the notification message transmission history DB 234, the customer location information DB 242, the incentive grant history DB 251, and the transaction history DB 272 shown in FIG. 5 are hardware resources. It is a memory | storage part to memorize | store.
In addition, a correspondence determination unit 223, a notification information acquisition unit 231, a deposit / withdrawal request processing unit 232, a notification message creation unit 233, a WEB page creation unit 235, an incentive provision authorization unit 236, a customer position acquisition unit 241, a customer extraction unit 243, The incentive provision determination unit 252, the transaction information acquisition unit 271, and the incentive provision execution unit 273 are realized by executing a program on the CPU (control unit).

  The cash management server 2 includes a mobile WEB communication unit 21, an ATM cash management unit 22, a tweet management unit 23, a customer location management unit 24, an incentive grant management unit 25, an ATM location management unit 26, and an account host unit 27. The servers may be independent from each other, and the servers need only be connected via a LAN (Local Area Network) or the like so that data can be transmitted and received.

  As described above, when the customer having a bank account is in the vicinity of the ATM 4 where the shortage of cash occurs, the cash management server 2 sends the cash to the ATM 4 to the mobile communication terminal 3 with a GPS function possessed by the customer. A notification message that prompts the user to deposit can be sent. Moreover, the cash management server 2 can also give a privilege (incentive) to the customer.

According to this embodiment, the cash management server 2 is connected to a mobile communication terminal 3 with a GPS function possessed by a customer who has a bank account via a network (mobile phone communication network N1). By registering information (address information) that enables data transmission to the mobile communication terminal 3 in advance in the cash management server 2 in advance, for example, in the vicinity of an ATM 4 (automatic cash transaction apparatus) where a shortage of cash occurs The cash management server 2 can transmit a notification message for prompting cash payment to the ATM 4 to the mobile communication terminal 3 possessed by the customer who is present. Thereby, it can be expected that the customer deposits cash into the ATM 4 where the shortage of cash occurs.
In this way, a plurality of customers possessing the mobile communication terminal 3 deposits cash into the ATM 4 in which cash shortage has occurred, or withdraws cash into the ATM 4 in which cash surplus has occurred. The number of occurrences of cash deficiency can be reduced.

In addition, it can be expected that a plurality of customers having bank accounts will deposit or withdraw ATM4 where cash shortage has occurred. Therefore, the management company (bank) of ATM4 can reduce the risk of transporting a large amount of cash to the place where ATM4 is installed in order to eliminate cash deficiency. In addition, since the number of times that the outsource such as a security company requests transportation of cash can be reduced, the cost for the outsource can also be reduced.
In addition, although it is set as excess and deficiency of cash in an Example, you may respond | correspond to the process only at the time of deficiency of cash. In this case, since the ATM 4 only notifies that the cash is insufficient, the number of cash replenishment requests to the security company can be reduced. Moreover, you may respond | correspond only to the process at the time of the surplus of the cash balance. In this case, since the ATM 4 only notifies that the cash is surplus, the number of cash collection requests to the security company can be reduced. For example, from a crime prevention point of view, the response policy DB 222 stores information requesting a response to only a cash collection request to the security company in the “response policy” at the time of cash surplus. By not tweeting, it is possible not to inform the customer that the cash is accumulated, but to operate the customer only to notify the cash shortage.

<< Flow of mutual processing between cash management server, mobile communication terminal and ATM >>
8 and 9 are diagrams showing a flow of mutual processing between the cash management server, the portable communication terminal, and the ATM according to the present invention (refer to FIGS. 1 to 7 as appropriate).
First, the customer operates the mobile communication terminal 3 to activate an application (payment / withdrawal request AP) (S101, FIG. 8). The mobile communication terminal 3 periodically transmits the customer ID and customer location information to the cash management server 2 (S102).
The customer location management unit 24 included in the cash management server 2 acquires the customer ID and the customer location information via the mobile WEB communication unit 21, and stores the customer location information stored in the customer location information DB 242 in correspondence with the customer ID.

  The cash balance detection unit 48 detects that the cash stored in the cash cassette unit 45 included in the ATM 4 is less than a predetermined number (S201). The bulletin information creation unit 49 creates bulletin information and transmits the bulletin information to the cash management server 2 via the communication unit 47 (S202). At this time, the ATM 4 also transmits an ATM ID for identifying the ATM 4 stored in the storage unit 46 to the cash management server 2.

  The tweet management unit 23 included in the cash management server 2 acquires the notification information via the ATM cash management unit 22 (S203). The tweet management unit 23 (report information acquisition unit 231) requests the ATM cash management unit 22 to determine correspondence of the report information (S204). The ATM cash management unit 22 (correspondence determination unit 223) executes a correspondence determination (S205), and returns a response determination result to the tweet management unit 23 (payment / withdrawal request processing unit 232) (S206). Next, the tweet management unit 23 (the deposit / withdrawal request processing unit 232) transmits the ATM ID to the ATM location management unit 26 and requests ATM location information (S207). The ATM location management unit 26 acquires ATM location information corresponding to the ATM ID from the ATM location information DB 261, and outputs the ATM location information to the tweet management unit 23 (the deposit / withdrawal request processing unit 232) (S208).

  Next, the tweet management unit 23 (the deposit / withdrawal request processing unit 232) outputs ATM location information to the customer location management unit 24 (S209). The customer location management unit 24 (customer extraction unit 243) extracts customer location information, customer ID, and address information within a predetermined distance range from the customer location information DB 242 (S210), and the customer location management unit 24 (customer extraction unit 243). ) Makes an incentive determination request to the incentive provision management unit 25 (S211). The incentive grant management unit 25 (incentive grant determination unit 252) refers to the incentive grant history DB 251 to perform incentive grant determination (S212), and acquires the customer ID of the customer determined to be able to grant incentive. The incentive provision determination result is output to the customer location management unit 24 (customer extraction unit 243) (S213). Thereby, the customer location management unit 24 (customer extraction unit 243) sends the customer ID determined to be incentive grantable, the customer location information and the address information to the tweet management unit 23 (payment / withdrawal request processing unit 232). Output (S214).

  The tweet management unit 23 (notification message creation unit 233) uses the information acquired from the ATM cash management unit 22, the customer location management unit 24, and the ATM location management unit 26 to provide a notification message in a format that can be displayed on the mobile communication terminal 3. (Cash deposit / withdrawal request information) is created (S215, FIG. 9). The tweet management unit 23 (notification message creation unit 233) transmits a notification message to the mobile communication terminal 3 via the mobile WEB communication unit 21 (S216). Thereby, cash deposit / withdrawal request information is displayed on the display unit 35 of the mobile communication terminal 3 (see FIG. 2). Also, the tweet management unit 23 (notification message creation unit 233) updates the notification message transmission history DB 234 (S217).

The customer operates the mobile communication terminal 3 and selects “I am here” (see FIG. 2), whereby ATM is selected (S218). The mobile communication terminal 3 transmits a WEB page transmission request to the cash management server 2 as a response to the notification message received from the tweet management unit 23 (notification message creation unit 233) (S219).
The tweet management unit 23 (WEB page creation unit 235) acquires a WEB page transmission request via the mobile WEB communication unit 21, creates a WEB page (S220), and creates a WEB page via the mobile WEB communication unit 21. Is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 3 (S221). Thereby, the WEB page is displayed on the display unit 35 of the mobile communication terminal 3 (see FIG. 3).

  The customer deposits cash into the corresponding ATM 4 according to the map information displayed on the display unit 35 of the mobile communication terminal 3 (S222). Operated by the customer, ATM 4 performs a deposit transaction with ATM cash management unit 22 (S223). Thereby, the ATM cash management unit 22 outputs the deposit transaction information to the account host unit 27 (S224), and the account host unit 27 (the transaction information acquisition unit 271) stores the deposit transaction information in the transaction history DB 272. (S225).

  The account host unit 27 (incentive granting execution unit 273) requests a customer ID for which incentive granting has been certified by the tweet management unit 23 (incentive granting certification unit 236) at the closing timing (S301). The tweet management unit 23 (incentive granting authorization unit 236) refers to the notification message transmission history DB 234 and the transaction history DB 272 and performs incentive granting authorization determination (S302). Then, the customer ID approved for incentive is output to the account host unit 27 (incentive granting execution unit 273) (S303). As a result, the account host unit 27 (incentive grant execution unit 273) grants an incentive for the amount corresponding to the bank account corresponding to the customer ID (S304).
