In this state, if a reservation registration completion notification or a stock zero notification is received for all premium IDs, whether a reservation registration completion notification has been received for all premium IDs included in the reservation request (S121), some premium IDs It is determined whether the notification of zero inventory has been received (S122) or whether the notification of zero inventory has been received for all premium IDs (S123).

  If it is determined in S123 that the stock zero notification has been received for all the prize IDs (YES), the fact that there is no stock for all the prizes is displayed on the display 24 (S124), and the prize reservation processing is terminated. Returning to the main process shown in FIG. If it is determined in S122 that the inventory zero notification has been received for some premium IDs (YES), the display 24 indicates that the premium is not in stock (S125), and the membership card 2 is being accepted. It is determined whether or not (S126). If it is determined in S121 that the reservation registration completion notification has been received for all the prize IDs (YES), it is determined whether or not the membership card 2 is being accepted (S126).

  If it is determined in S126 that the member card 2 is being accepted (YES), the number of stored balls + the number of possessed balls stored in the RAM of the control unit 22 corresponds to the prize ID that received the reservation registration completion notification. It is determined whether or not it is equal to or greater than the total number of exchange balls attached (S127). If it is determined in S127 that the number of stored balls + the number of held balls is less than the number of exchanged balls (NO), the payment process is impossible, so the reservation receipt 4 is issued by the receipt printer 25 (S131), and the prize reservation is performed. The process ends, and the process returns to the main process shown in FIG. On the other hand, if it is determined in S127 that the number of stored balls + the number of held balls is equal to or greater than the number of exchanged balls (YES), since the settlement process is possible, the screen shown at D35a in FIG. . In D35a, the fact that the reservation has been made, the prize name of the prize that has been reserved (that is, the prize of the prize ID that received the reservation registration completion notice), the number of reservations, and the number of exchange balls are stored in the RAM of the control unit 22. The number of stored balls and the number of holding balls, a “settlement” button for accepting an operation to make a settlement using the number of accumulated balls + the number of possessed balls, and an “end” button for accepting an operation not to make a settlement. Is displayed.

  If it is determined in S126 that the membership card 2 is not being accepted (NO), that is, it is determined that the visitor card 3 is being accepted, the number of possessed balls stored in the RAM of the control unit 22 indicates the reservation registration completion notification. It is determined whether or not the total number of exchange balls associated with the received prize ID is equal to or greater than (S129). If it is determined in S129 that the number of possessed balls is less than the number of exchanged balls (NO), since the settlement process is impossible, the reservation receipt 4 is issued by the receipt printer 25 (S131), and the prize reservation process is terminated. Then, the process returns to the main process shown in FIG. On the other hand, if it is determined in S129 that the number of possessed balls is equal to or greater than the number of exchanged balls (YES), since the settlement process is possible, the screen shown in D35b of FIG. 16 is displayed on the display 24 (S130). In D35b, the fact that the reservation has been made, the prize name of the prize that has been reserved (that is, the prize of the prize ID that received the reservation registration completion notice), the number of reservations, and the number of exchange balls are stored in the RAM of the control unit 22. The number of currently held balls, a “settlement” button for accepting an operation for making a settlement using the number of possessed balls, and an “end” button for accepting an operation for not making a settlement are displayed.

  Here, the reservation receipt 4 issued in S131 is a recording medium that is printed on paper and issued to the player when the payment process is not performed in the prize reservation process. As shown in FIG. 4, a game hall name, a reservation ID that is reservation identification information for identifying the reservation, a prize ID corresponding to the reservation ID, a prize name, the number of exchange balls, the number of reservations, and the reservation The valid period (here, the reservation day) and the reservation ID barcode 4a containing the reservation ID are recorded. Information recorded in the reservation receipt 4 is included in the reservation registration completion notification. In this example, when there are a plurality of reserved prizes (that is, not only when a different kind of prize is reserved in one reservation, but also when a plurality of same type prizes are reserved in one reservation. A reservation ID 4 is assigned to each of the plurality of prizes, and a reservation receipt 4 assigned to each prize is recorded (that is, one reservation receipt 4 for one prize). publish. Therefore, the number of reservations recorded on the reservation receipt 4 is always one. The reservation contents of the reservation receipt 4 can be confirmed at a reservation confirmation terminal 40 to be described later.

  In the state of S128 in which D35a is displayed or in the state of S130 in which D35b is displayed, the operation of the “settlement” button (S141) or the operation of the “end” button (S142) displayed in D35a or D35b. Wait. If the “end” button is operated in S142 (YES), the reservation receipt 4 is issued by the receipt printer 25 (S131), the premium reservation process is terminated, and the process returns to the main process shown in FIG.

  If the “settlement” button is operated in S141 (YES), a settlement process (S143) is performed. In this settlement process, if there is an operation of the “settlement” button displayed in D35a, first, if the number of stored balls stored in the RAM of the control unit 22 is equal to or greater than the number of exchanged balls, the exchange is performed from the number of stored balls. In order to subtract the number of balls, a stored ball number subtraction request including the number of exchanged balls and the membership card ID of the member card 2 being accepted is transmitted from the on-site communication unit 21b to the member management device 31, and the stored ball The member management device 31 is notified of the completion of subtraction of the number of stored balls including the number of stored balls after subtracting the number of replacement balls included in the stored number subtraction request from the number of stored balls managed in association with the member card ID included in the number subtraction request. When the storage ball number subtraction completion notification is received, the number of storage balls after subtraction included in the storage ball number subtraction completion notification is stored in the RAM of the control unit 22. On the other hand, if the number of stored balls (for example, 2246) stored in the RAM of the control unit 22 is less than the number of replaced balls (for example, 2750), the number of stored balls is reduced to zero and the shortage of the number of exchanged balls is determined from the number of held balls. In order to subtract (i.e., 504), the in-field communication unit issues a number-of-balls subtraction request including the shortage of replacement balls obtained by subtracting the number of stored balls from the number of replacement balls and the member card ID of the member card 2 being accepted. The exchange balls included in the number-of-retentions subtraction request from the number of possessions transmitted from 21b to the number-of-balls management device 32 and managed in association with the membership card ID included in the number-of-retentions-subtraction request Waiting for the number-of-rolls-subtracting completion notification including the number of balls after subtracting the shortage of numbers to be transmitted from the number-of-balls management device 32, The number of balls after subtraction included in the ball count subtraction completion notification In addition to performing the process of storing at M, a stored ball number zero update request including the membership card ID of the member card 2 being received is transmitted from the on-site communication unit 21b to the member management device 31, and the stored ball number zero update request Waiting for the notification of the completion of the update of the number of stored balls after updating the number of stored balls managed in association with the member card ID included in the member card to zero from the member management device 31, and completing the update of the number of stored balls of zero When the notification is received, the number of balls stored in the RAM of the control unit 22 is set to zero. That is, when a settlement is made by using the number of stored balls + the number of held balls, the number of stored balls is used first. If the number of stored balls is not sufficient, the number of held balls is used.

The on-site management device 50 always performs the processing shown in FIGS. 36 to 38 during the operation of the game hall.

  First, the advertisement display history DB update process performed by the on-site management apparatus 50 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. In this advertisement display history DB update process, the on-site management device 50 receives information transmitted from the card unit 20 (card insertion information, accumulated ball number update information, number of coins updated information, display advertisement information, specific operation information, card return. Information or erasure information) is waited for (S500). If the information transmitted from the card unit 20 is received in S500 (YES), it is determined in S501 to S506 which type of the received information is.

  First, in S501, if it is determined that the received card insertion information is (YES), the card insertion information is associated with the card ID included in the card insertion information in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. The card number of the card unit 20 that is the information transmission source, the card insertion time that is the reception time of the card insertion information, the number of stored balls included in the card insertion information (only in the case of a member card ID), and the number of balls Store (S511), and the process ends.

  If it is determined in S502 that the received ball number update information is YES (YES), the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35 is associated with the member card ID included in the stored ball number update information. The stored number of stored balls is updated to the number of stored balls included in the stored number update information (S512), and the process ends.

  If it is determined in S503 that the received ball number update information is (YES), in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. The number of possessed balls stored is updated to the number of possessed balls included in the retained ball number update information (S513), and the process is terminated.

  If it is determined in S504 that the received display advertisement information is (YES), the display advertisement is associated with the card ID included in the display advertisement information in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. It is determined whether or not the advertisement ID included in the information is stored (S514), and the advertisement ID is already stored (YES), that is, the advertisement information of the advertisement ID owns the card with the card ID. If it is determined that the user ID has already been displayed to the user, the process is terminated, and the advertisement ID is not yet stored (NO), that is, the advertisement information of the advertisement ID indicates the card with the card ID. If it is determined that it is not yet displayed to the owning user, the advertisement display history DB is associated with the card ID included in the display advertisement information, and the advertisement ID and the declaration are displayed. Advertising the type of ID of the advertisement, advertisement plan, time remaining, and the inventory, and stores 0 as the re-display flag (S515), the process ends. Here, the advertisement type and the advertisement plan are extracted from the display advertisement DB shown in FIG. 34 and stored. The remaining period is calculated and stored based on the display period stored in the display advertisement DB. In addition, when the advertisement type is a provided prize advertisement, the number of stocks is extracted from the display advertisement DB, and the prize ID extracted from the prize information (FIG. 21) stored in the hard disk 65 by the advertisement management apparatus 60. The stock quantity corresponding to is acquired and stored.

  If it is determined in S505 that the received specific operation information is (YES), the reception time of the specific operation information is associated with the card ID and the advertisement ID included in the specific operation information. The operation time is stored (S516), and the process is terminated.

  If it is determined in S505 that the received card return information is (YES), the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35 is stored in association with the card ID included in the card return information. Is deleted (S517), it is determined whether the card ID is a member card ID (S518), and if it is not a member card ID (NO ), The process ends, and if it is a member card ID (YES), each advertisement ID stored in the advertisement display history DB in association with the member card ID, operation time, advertisement type, advertisement plan, remaining period, The advertisement display history data including the inventory quantity is transmitted to the advertisement management device 60 (S519), and the process is terminated. The advertisement management device 60 that has received the advertisement display history data performs a process of updating the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 43 described later and the member information DB shown in FIG. 2 (a). Will be described later with reference to FIG.

  Further, if it is determined in S506 that the received information is not card return information (NO), since the received information is the deletion information, the visitor included in the deletion information is displayed in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. Card number, card insertion time, number of balls, and number of balls stored in association with the card ID, each advertisement ID, operation time, advertisement type, advertisement plan, remaining period, inventory quantity, and redisplay flag Is deleted (S520), and the process is terminated. As described above, when the erasure information is received, the advertisement display history data associated with the visitor card ID included in the erasure information, that is, the card unit 20 in which the visitor card 3 of the visitor card ID is accepted. Since the advertisement display history data of the visitor player who has been playing with the pachinko machine 10 (assumed to be “Class A”) is erased, the card unit 20 does not insert the membership card 2 or the visitor card 3 and the banknote is inserted. Re-display based on the advertisement display history of the former is not performed for a visitor player who inserts and plays a game.

  As described above, in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35, the card number, the card insertion time, the number of balls, and the number of balls are stored in association with the card ID based on the reception of the card insertion information. Based on the reception of the card return information, the card number inserted into the card unit 20 is deleted by deleting the unit number, the card insertion time, the number of balls stored, and the number of balls stored in association with the card ID. Since the card number, the card insertion time, and the like are stored while the card unit 20 is present, the card unit 20 where the user exists can be grasped by referring to the card number corresponding to the card ID.

  Next, the automatic advertisement display process performed by the on-site management apparatus 50 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. In this advertisement automatic display processing, the in-site management device 50 first extracts one card ID stored in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35 (S601), and associates the extracted card ID with the card insertion time. Is stored (S602). If it is determined in S602 that the card insertion time is not stored (NO), the user who owns the card with the extracted card ID does not exist in any of the card units 20, so the advertisement is automatically displayed. It returns to S601 without performing. If the process returns to S601, the next card ID is extracted, and the process proceeds to S602 and thereafter.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S602 that the card insertion time is stored (YES), based on the automatic display condition stored in the hard disk 55, the time condition set in D200 of FIG. Whether or not the time interval set as the time condition has elapsed from the card insertion time is determined (S603). If it is determined in S603 that the time condition is not satisfied (NO), the automatic display condition is not satisfied, and the process returns to S601. On the other hand, if it is determined in S603 that the time condition is satisfied (YES), the automatic display condition is satisfied, so in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35, the display order counter value (corresponding to the extracted card ID) For example, “2”) is specified, and an advertisement ID (here “P00248”) corresponding to the display order indicated by the specified display order counter value is extracted from the display promotion DB shown in FIG. 34 (S604), and S605. Proceed to

  In S605, it is determined whether or not the extracted advertisement ID is stored in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35. The advertisement ID is already stored (YES), that is, the advertisement information of the advertisement ID is stored. If it is determined that it is already displayed to the user who owns the card with the extracted card ID, the process proceeds to S607, and the advertisement ID is not yet stored (NO), that is, the advertisement ID. If it is determined that the advertisement information is not yet displayed to the user who owns the card with the extracted card ID, the advertisement display history DB corresponds to the card ID as in S515. In addition, the advertisement ID, the advertisement type of the advertisement of the advertisement ID, the advertisement plan, the remaining period, the inventory quantity, and 0 as the redisplay flag are stored, and the process proceeds to S607.

  In S607, an automatic advertisement display request including the extracted advertisement ID is transmitted to the card unit 20 of the serial number associated with the extracted card ID, and the process proceeds to S608. In the card unit 20 that has received this advertisement automatic display request, it is determined YES in S202 of FIG. 12, so that the process proceeds to S207 and the following, and advertisement information is automatically displayed. In S608, it is determined whether or not the display order counter value has reached the maximum value (6 in this example) of the display order set in the display advertisement DB shown in FIG. If it is determined in S608 that the maximum value of the display order has not been reached (NO), the display order counter value is incremented by one (S609), and the process returns to S601. On the other hand, if it is determined in S608 that the maximum value of the display order has been reached (YES), the display order counter value is returned to 1, and the process returns to S601. In this case, the automatic display is again performed from the advertisement whose display order is 1.

  Since the display order counter value is not cleared even when the card return information is received, even after the table is moved, the advertisement is automatically displayed before the table is moved. In other words, if the table is moved after the advertisement whose display order is 3 is automatically displayed before the table is moved, the advertisement whose display order is 4 is automatically displayed after the table is moved.

  Next, the advertisement re-display process performed by the on-site management apparatus 50 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. In this advertisement redisplay process, the on-site management device 50 first extracts one card ID stored in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35 (S701), and associates the extracted card ID with the card insertion time. Is stored (S702). If it is determined in S702 that the card insertion time is not stored (NO), the user who owns the card with the extracted card ID does not exist in any of the card units 20. It returns to S701 without performing. If the process returns to S701, the next card ID is extracted, and the process proceeds to S702 and thereafter.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S702 that the card insertion time is stored (YES), the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35 includes the advertisement ID stored in association with the extracted card ID. Therefore, the advertisement ID whose re-display flag is 0 and whose operation time is the earliest is extracted (S703), and it is determined whether or not the advertisement of the extracted advertisement ID is a provided premium advertisement (S704). . Here, in S703, since the advertisement whose redisplay flag is 1 (that is, the advertisement that has been redisplayed once) is not extracted, the redisplay is not performed twice or more.

  If it is determined in S704 that the offer is a promotional gift (YES), whether or not the time condition set in D211 of FIG. 33B is satisfied based on the re-display condition stored in the hard disk 55. That is, it is determined whether or not an elapsed time set as the time condition has elapsed from the card insertion time (S711). If “move table” is set as the time condition, it is determined whether or not the card insertion time is later than the operation time of the extracted advertisement ID. If it is determined in S711 that the time condition is not satisfied (NO), the redisplay condition is not satisfied, and the process returns to S701.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S711 that the time condition is satisfied (YES), whether or not an additional condition is set in D211 of FIG. 33B based on the redisplay condition stored in the hard disk 55. Is determined (S711a). If it is determined in S711a that the additional condition is not set (NO), the redisplay condition is satisfied, so the advertisement redisplay request including the extracted advertisement ID is associated with the extracted card ID. Is transmitted to the card unit 20 of the registered serial number (S723), the redisplay flag 1 is stored in association with the card ID (S724), and the process returns to S701. In the card unit 20 that has received this advertisement re-display request, it is determined YES in S203 of FIG. Is done.

  The control unit 52 that performs the processing of S723 performs advertisement related information (unit advertisement) in the card unit 20 where the user who performed the specific operation exists, on condition that the redisplay condition set by the redisplay condition setting unit is satisfied. It functions as a re-display processing means for performing a re-display process for displaying (details). According to this, when the re-display condition is satisfied, the advertisement-related information related to the advertisement information for which the specific operation is received from the user in the information display device is displayed on the information display device in which the user exists, so that the specific operation from the user is performed. Can be viewed again, so that the advertising effect can be further enhanced.

Determine whether. If it is determined in S712 that the holding ball condition is set (YES), in S713, whether or not the set holding ball condition is satisfied, that is, the extracted card ID is the member card ID. In this case, it is determined whether or not the number of stored balls corresponding to the member card ID + the number of possessed balls is equal to or greater than the number of exchanged balls of the provided prize corresponding to the extracted advertising ID, and the extracted card ID is a visitor card ID. In some cases, it is determined whether or not the number of possessed balls corresponding to the visitor card ID is equal to or greater than the number of exchanged balls of the provided prize corresponding to the extracted advertisement ID. If it is determined in S713 that the holding ball condition is satisfied (YES), the holding ball condition establishment flag is stored (S714), and the process proceeds to S715. On the other hand, if it is determined in S713 that the ball holding condition is not satisfied (NO) and if it is determined in S712 that the ball holding condition is not set (NO), the process proceeds to S715.

  In S715, based on the redisplay condition stored in the hard disk 55, it is determined whether or not the remaining period condition is set in D211. If it is determined in S715 that the remaining period condition is set (YES), whether or not the set remaining period condition is satisfied, that is, the remaining period corresponding to the extracted card ID is determined in S716. It is determined whether or not it is less than the set remaining period. If it is determined in S716 that the remaining period condition is satisfied (YES), the remaining period condition establishment flag is stored (S717), and the process proceeds to S718. On the other hand, if it is determined in S716 that the remaining period condition is not satisfied (NO), and if it is determined in S715 that the remaining period condition is not set (NO), the process proceeds to S718.

  In S718, based on the redisplay condition stored in the hard disk 55, it is determined whether or not the inventory quantity condition is set in D211. If it is determined in S718 that the stock quantity condition is set (YES), in S719, whether or not the set stock quantity condition is satisfied, that is, the stock quantity corresponding to the extracted card ID is determined. It is determined whether or not it is less than the set stock quantity. If it is determined in S719 that the stock quantity condition is satisfied (YES), the stock quantity condition satisfaction flag is stored (S720), and the process proceeds to S721. On the other hand, if it is determined in S719 that the inventory quantity condition is not satisfied (NO), or if it is determined in S718 that the inventory quantity condition is not set (NO), the process proceeds to S721.

  In S721, based on the redisplay condition stored in the hard disk 55, it is determined whether or not the additional condition is set as the and condition. If it is determined in S721 that the and condition is not set (NO), that is, it is determined that the or condition is set, in S725, whether a set flag for any of the set conditions is stored. Determine whether. If it is determined in S725 that neither condition is satisfied (NO), the redisplay condition is not satisfied, and the process returns to S701. On the other hand, if it is determined in S725 that the satisfaction flag of any condition is stored (YES), the re-display condition is satisfied, and thus the process proceeds to S723.

  If it is determined in S721 that the and condition is set (YES), it is determined in S722 whether or not all set conditions are satisfied. If it is determined in S722 that the satisfaction flag of all conditions is not stored (NO), the redisplay condition is not satisfied, and the process returns to S701. On the other hand, if it is determined in S722 that all the conditions are satisfied (YES), the re-display condition is satisfied, and the process proceeds to S723.

  In S723 that has proceeded from S722 or S725, when the extracted advertisement ID is included and the remaining period condition establishment flag is stored, the remaining period associated with the extracted card ID is further included, If the number condition establishment flag is stored, the advertisement redisplay request further including the number of stocks associated with the extracted card ID is sent to the card with the serial number associated with the extracted card ID.

Upon receiving this questionnaire registration request, the advertisement management device 60 generates a questionnaire ID, and associates the received questionnaire registration request with the generated questionnaire ID in the advertiser's data table in the questionnaire DB shown in FIG. Memorize the contents of Here, the display period storage field stores the set display start date and the display end date when the set display days have elapsed from the display start date. In the questionnaire plan storage column, the set questionnaire plan is stored. The contract period storage field stores the date pole if the set number of display days is daily, the week pole if weekly, and the month pole if monthly.

  Next, the card unit 20 that functions as an information display device will be described. The card unit 20 displays predetermined advertisement information as the browsing information. In this function, a questionnaire notice for notifying members of the existence of a questionnaire is displayed as predetermined advertisement information. The questionnaire notification is also an advertisement for a product or service that is the subject of the questionnaire, and thus corresponds to predetermined advertisement information.

  In the present invention, a questionnaire is displayed on a member-only page, which will be described later, and an answer is received. On the card unit 20, only the questionnaire notification is displayed and the questionnaire is not displayed. This is because there are few members answering the questionnaire during the game even if the is displayed, and if the questionnaire is displayed in the card unit 20 and the answer is accepted, the game in the pachinko machine 10 corresponding to the card unit 20 is being answered. This is because the operation of the pachinko machine 10 becomes worse.

  The card unit 20 is in the state of S23 (FIG. 9) in which the D13a (FIG. 14) is displayed, and in S61 (FIG. 10), the questionnaire notification display operation, that is, the operation of the “questionnaire notification” button displayed in D13a. Is received (YES), the questionnaire notification display process (S79) shown in FIG. 13 is performed in cooperation with the advertisement management device 60. Note that communication between the card unit 20 and the advertisement management device 60 is performed between the in-field communication unit 21b of the card unit 20 and the communication unit 61 of the advertisement management device 60 via the in-field management device 50. Hereinafter, the questionnaire notice display process performed by the card unit 20 will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG. 13 with reference to the screen diagram shown in FIG.

  First, when there is a questionnaire notification display operation, the card unit 20 transmits a questionnaire notification request including the membership card ID of the member card 2 being accepted to the advertisement management device 60 (S251). The advertisement management device 60 that has received this questionnaire notification request determines whether or not the mobile phone ID is registered in the member information DB shown in FIG. 2A in association with the member card ID included in the questionnaire notification request. It is determined whether or not electronic money use registration has been performed (S252). If it is determined in S252 that the mobile phone ID is not registered (NO), that is, electronic money use registration is not performed, the screen shown in D52 of FIG. The unit 20 displays the screen on the display 24. In D52, it is displayed that the questionnaire cannot be answered unless electronic money use registration is performed from the mobile phone 8. This is because if electronic money use registration is not performed, privileged electronic money for answering a questionnaire cannot be granted.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S252 that the mobile phone ID has been registered (YES), that is, electronic money use registration has been performed, it is associated with the member card ID included in the questionnaire notification request in FIG. The sex and age of the member's attribute information registered in the member information DB shown in a) is specified (S253), and there is a questionnaire (hereinafter referred to as “target questionnaire”) targeting the member. That is, it is determined whether or not there is a questionnaire in which the sex and age of the member specified in S253 are set as the conditions of the questionnaire target person among the questionnaires registered in the questionnaire DB shown in FIG. S254). If it is determined in S254 that there is no target questionnaire (NO), that is, there is no questionnaire in which the sex and age of the member are set as conditions for the target of the questionnaire, the screen shown in FIG. 20, the card unit 20 displays the screen on the display 24. In D53, it is displayed that there is no target questionnaire.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S254 that there is a target questionnaire (YES), that is, there is a questionnaire in which the member's gender and age are set as the conditions of the survey target person, it is registered in the questionnaire DB shown in FIG. It is determined whether or not there is an unregistered target questionnaire that is not registered in the questionnaire operation history DB shown in FIG. 44, which will be described later, in association with the member card ID included in the questionnaire notification request (S255). ). When it is determined in S255 that there is no unregistered target questionnaire (NO), the screen shown in D53 is transmitted to the card unit 20, and the card unit 20 displays the screen on the display 24.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S255 that there is an unregistered target questionnaire (YES), the unregistered target questionnaire is extracted (S256), and the extracted unregistered target questionnaire is set for each questionnaire. The questionnaire notifications are sorted in descending order of priority of the questionnaire notice display, and the questionnaire notice information including the questionnaire ID and the questionnaire name of each questionnaire is transmitted to the card unit 20 in the sorted order (S257).

  The card unit 20 that has received the questionnaire notification information displays the screen shown at D51 in FIG. In D51, a questionnaire button indicating the questionnaire name of each questionnaire is displayed in the order included in the questionnaire notification information. When the questionnaire button is clicked, the user logs in to the member-dedicated page and answers the questionnaire, Is displayed.

  In the state of S261 in which D51 is displayed, an operation of any questionnaire button (S262) or the elapse of a predetermined time (for example, 1 minute) (S263) is waited. If any of the questionnaire buttons is operated in S262 (YES), the specific operation information including the membership card ID of the member card 2 being accepted and the questionnaire ID corresponding to the questionnaire name indicated by the operated questionnaire button is displayed. Then, it is transmitted to the advertisement management device 60 (S264), and again waits for S262 or S263. Upon receiving this specific operation information, the advertisement management device 60 associates the questionnaire ID included in the specific operation information with the membership card ID included in the specific operation information in the questionnaire operation history DB shown in FIG. 44 described later. The operation date, the questionnaire plan set for the questionnaire, and the answered flag 0 described later are registered (S265).

  If it is determined in S263 that the predetermined time has elapsed (YES), the questionnaire notification display process is terminated, and the process returns to the main process shown in FIG. Although not shown in the figure, the questionnaire notification display process is terminated even when all the questionnaire buttons displayed in D51 have been operated before it is determined in S263 that the predetermined time has elapsed, and FIG. Return to the main process shown in FIG.

[5. Information distribution function and electronic money issuing function]
The information distribution function which is the fifth function of the information display / distribution system 1 is realized by the advertisement management device 60. In this information distribution function, member identification information capable of individually identifying a member is received in the information display device (card unit 20), and browsing information (that is, unit advertisement which is advertisement information) is received in connection with reception of the member identification information. When main (questionnaire notification) is displayed (in this example, when a specific operation is further performed), in the advertisement management device 60, display specific information storage means (advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 43, questionnaire shown in FIG. 44) In the operation history DB), member identification information and display identification information (promotion ID, questionnaire ID) that can specify browsing information are stored in association with each other, and the member from the information terminal (PC 7 or mobile phone 8) owned by the member. Display specific information stored in association with the member identification information on condition that a login request including information capable of specifying the identification information is received. Members-only page that contains a browse relevant information about browsing information to be et al identified is transmitted to the information terminal.

  Here, the member-dedicated page is a web page dedicated to the member and providing a predetermined service (in this example, integrated registration of the member card ID and a gift exchange service using points). -Each page shown in FIG. 51 (except for D300). The browsing-related information related to the browsing information, that is, the advertising-related information related to the advertising information is an advertisement banner and a questionnaire banner included in D301, a web advertisement included in D302a and D302b, and a questionnaire included in D303.

  The electronic money issuing function, which is the fifth function of the information display / distribution system 1, is realized by the advertisement management device 60, the electronic money management server 80, and the financial institution server 90B. In this electronic money issuing function, the advertisement management device 60 transmits the member-dedicated page including the browsing related information (in this example, the answer to the questionnaire as the browsing related information is further received) on the condition. Electronic money issuing processing for storing electronic money given as a privilege to the member is performed on the electronic money storage medium (mobile phone 8) owned by the member.

  Here, the advertisement management device 60 functions as a web server, and the control unit 62 functions as a member-dedicated page transmission means, discount processing means, and electronic money issue processing means. Will be described later with reference to FIGS. The control unit 62 functions as a point management unit, and this function will be described later with reference to FIGS. 43 and 45.

  The communication unit 61 functions as member identification information acquisition means for acquiring the member identification information (member card ID) received by the information display device (card unit 20), and the browsing information (unit advertisement main, questionnaire) in the information display device. It functions as specific operation information acquisition means for acquiring specific operation information indicating that a specific operation has been received from a member when (notification) is displayed. Specifically, each advertisement ID, operation time, advertisement type, advertisement plan, and remaining period stored in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 35 in association with the member card ID transmitted from the on-site management apparatus 50 , And the advertisement display history data including the stock quantity (S519 in FIG. 36), the member card ID included in the advertisement display history data is acquired, and the advertisement ID included in the advertisement display history data The operation time is acquired as specific operation information. Also, by receiving the specific operation information (S264 in FIG. 13) transmitted from the card unit 20, the member card ID and the questionnaire ID included in the specific operation information are acquired.

  As shown in FIG. 42, the display 63 and the input device 64 function as priority setting means for setting the priority of each browsing related information. Here, an advertisement banner and a questionnaire banner, which are browsing related information, are described later. The priority to be displayed on the member-dedicated top page indicated by D301 in FIG. 48 is set. Specifically, when the banner display condition setting program is activated in the advertisement management device 60, a banner display condition setting screen shown as D220 in FIG.

  In D220, a pull-down menu for setting the number of advertisement banners included in the member-only top page is displayed for the advertisement banner. In addition, as priority determination conditions, a priority order input field for setting whether to prioritize the advertisement plan, the remaining period, or the period from the operation, and the remaining period are set. A pull-down menu and a pull-down menu for setting a period from the operation are displayed.

  Furthermore, as a priority lowering condition, a check box for setting that the priority is reduced on the condition that the number of display times of the advertising banner has reached a predetermined number, a pull-down menu for setting the display frequency, and a web A check box for setting that the priority is reduced on the condition that a prize is exchanged using points on the point use page transitioned from the member-dedicated page (D302a in FIG. 48) on which the advertisement is displayed; Is displayed. Here, the number of times the advertising banner is displayed is set as the priority lowering condition. When the number of times the advertising banner is displayed reaches the set number of times, the priority at which the advertising banner is displayed decreases, and the priority is thereby increased. Opportunities to be displayed even on low advertising banners are circulated, so that the equal opportunity of displaying advertising banners is ensured and the fairness of the advertiser can be ensured. In addition, when a prize is exchanged, since the interest in the prize is generally reduced, the prize exchange is set as a priority lowering condition, and when the prize exchange is performed, the priority for displaying the advertisement banner of the provided prize is lowered. As a result, it is possible to reduce the annoyance of displaying advertisements that are not of interest to the user, and also to have opportunities to display advertisement banners with low priority. To ensure the fairness of advertisers.

  In D220, a pull-down menu for setting the number of questionnaire banners included in the member-specific top page is displayed for the questionnaire banner. The questionnaire banner is set in advance to be displayed on the member-specific top page in descending order of the priority of the questionnaire banner display priority of the questionnaire plan set for each questionnaire.

  By operating the input device 64 at D220, the number of advertisement banners included in the member-specific top page (required), priority determination conditions (required), priority lowering conditions (optional), and members included in the member-specific top page When the number (required) of the questionnaire banner is selected or input and the “set” button is operated, the selected or input content is set and stored as a banner display condition.

  The hard disk 65 as storage means stores the member information DB shown in FIG. The number of points stored in the member information DB is updated under the control of the control unit 62 based on the reception of the advertisement display history data (S519 in FIG. 36) transmitted from the on-site management device 50. Specifically, in the member information DB, a predetermined number is assigned to each promotion ID included in the advertisement display history data with respect to the number of points corresponding to the member card ID included in the received advertisement display history data. Add the number of points (for example, 1 point). It is to be noted that points are given once for each advertisement ID once a day, and even if advertisement display history data including the advertisement ID for which points have already been given on the day is received, no points are given for the advertisement ID.

  Here, the control unit 62 manages points associated with the member card ID on the condition that advertisement information (unit advertisement main) is displayed in association with the reception of the member card ID in the card unit 20. It functions as a point management means for performing processing for adding points of a predetermined size. According to this, when the advertising information is displayed to the member in the card unit 20, the point of the member is added, which leads to the promotion of member registration. Can be increased.

  Further, the hard disk 65 serving as a storage means stores an advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. In this advertisement display history DB, when the advertisement ID of the advertisement information (unit advertisement main) displayed on the card unit 20 during reception of the member card ID and the advertisement information are displayed in association with the member card ID. The latest operation date when a specific operation is accepted, the advertisement type of the advertisement information, the advertisement plan, the remaining period, the number of inventory items to be advertised, and the advertisement banner, which is advertisement-related information related to the advertisement information, is a member-only top page (Figure 48, the number of times the advertisement banner is displayed, and the point exchange page using the point transition page from the member-dedicated page (D302a in FIG. 48) displayed when the advertisement banner is clicked. A replacement flag indicating whether or not has been performed is stored. Here, if the exchanged flag is 1, it indicates that the prize has been exchanged, and if the exchanged flag is 0, it indicates that the prize has not been exchanged. Here, the inventory quantity and the exchanged flag are stored only for the advertisement ID whose advertisement type is the provided premium advertisement.

  The stored contents of the advertisement display history DB are updated under the control of the control unit 62 based on the reception of advertisement display history data (S519 in FIG. 36) transmitted from the on-site management device 50. Specifically, first, in the advertisement display history DB, whether each advertisement ID included in the advertisement display history data is stored in association with the member card ID included in the received advertisement display history data. Determine whether. Here, for the advertisement ID stored in the advertisement display history DB, if the received advertisement display history data includes an operation time, the latest operation date corresponding to the stored advertisement ID is updated on that day. (If the operation time is not included, the latest operation date is not updated). On the other hand, for the advertisement IDs not stored in the advertisement display history DB, the advertisement ID is stored, and if the operation time is included in the received advertisement display history data, the current day is stored as the latest operation date (operation time). If it is not included, the latest operation date is not memorized), and the advertisement type, advertisement plan, remaining period and inventory quantity included in the received advertisement display history data are memorized, and the advertisement banner display frequency and exchange 0 is stored as the completion flag.

  Further, the stored content of the advertisement display history DB is updated by the control of the control unit 62 before the start of business on the 1st. Specifically, for each advertising ID, if the corresponding remaining period is one day, the remaining period is zero on that day, so the advertising ID and corresponding data are deleted. Next, for each advertising ID, the remaining period and the inventory quantity are updated. Here, for the remaining period, one day is subtracted, and the stock quantity is acquired and stored from the premium information (FIG. 21) stored in the hard disk 65 on that day. For each promotion ID, if the current day is the contract renewal date, the advertisement banner display count and the exchanged flag corresponding to the promotion ID are cleared to zero. For example, in the advertisement DB shown in FIG. 31, the advertisement whose advertisement ID is X12429 has a contract unit of the monthly pole and a display period of 3 months from September 3, so that the contract renewal dates are October 3 and November. On the 3rd, the advertisement banner display count and the exchanged flag corresponding to the advertisement ID are cleared to zero. If the advertisement banner display count and the exchanged flag are not cleared to zero in this way, the priority lowering condition in D220 of FIG. In this case, once the priority reduction condition is satisfied, the priority remains lowered throughout the advertisement display period, which is extremely disadvantageous for the advertiser. By clearing the display count and the exchanged flag to zero and eliminating the lowering of the priority of the advertisement, the advertiser who has contracted for a long time is prevented from being disadvantaged.

  This advertisement display history DB is a display specification that can specify the member card ID acquired by the member identification information acquisition means and the browsing information (unit advertisement main) displayed in association with reception of the member card ID in the card unit 20. It functions as a display specific information storage unit that stores information (promotion ID) in association with each other. Here, the specific operation information acquisition unit acquires the advertisement ID and operation time as specific operation information. The member card ID and the advertisement ID are stored in association with each other.

  Further, the hard disk 65 which is a storage means stores a questionnaire operation history DB shown in FIG. In this questionnaire operation history DB, the questionnaire button in which the questionnaire button is operated (that is, the specific operation is accepted) of the questionnaire notice displayed on the card unit 20 while accepting the member card ID is associated with the member card ID. A questionnaire ID, an operation date when the operation is accepted, a questionnaire plan of the questionnaire, and an answer flag indicating whether an answer to the questionnaire is accepted are stored. Here, if the answered flag is 1, it indicates that the answer has been accepted, and if the answered flag is 0, it indicates that the answer has not been accepted. The contents stored in the questionnaire operation history DB are updated under the control of the control unit 62 as described with reference to FIG.

  This questionnaire operation history DB is a display specification information that can specify the member card ID acquired by the member identification information acquisition means and the browsing information (questionnaire notification) displayed in association with the reception of the member card ID in the card unit 20. It functions as a display specific information storage means for storing (questionnaire ID) in association with each other. Here, on the condition that the specific operation information acquisition means acquires the questionnaire ID as the specific operation information, the member card ID and The questionnaire ID is stored in association with each other.

  Here, the member-dedicated page transmission processing performed by the advertisement management apparatus 60 will be described based on the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 45 to 47 and with reference to the screen views shown in FIGS. 48 to 51.

  The control unit 62 and the communication unit 61 that perform the processing shown in FIGS. 45 to 47 have received a login request including information that can specify the member card ID from the information terminal (PC 7 or mobile phone 8) owned by the member. Functioning as a member-dedicated page transmission means for transmitting to the information terminal a member-dedicated page dedicated to the member and providing a predetermined service, based on the information included in the login request. Browsing related to browsing information specified from display specific information (promotion ID, questionnaire ID) stored in display specific information storage means (advertisement display history DB, questionnaire operation history DB) in association with the specified member card ID Information (advertisement banner and questionnaire banner included in D301 in FIG. 48, web advertisement included in D302a and D302b, The members-only pages containing questionnaire) contained in 303 is to transmit to the information terminal.

  That is, the control unit 62 and the communication unit 61 functioning as members-only pages display advertisement-related information (advertisement banners included in D301 in FIG. 48, D302a) about predetermined advertisement information (unit advertisement main, questionnaire notification) displayed on the card unit 20. And a web page included in D302b) as a browsing related information is transmitted to the information terminal, and the questionnaire related information relating to a predetermined questionnaire (the questionnaire banner included in D301 in FIG. 48, D303) A member-dedicated page including the included questionnaire) as browsing related information is transmitted to the information terminal.

  45, the advertisement management device 60 waits for reception of an access request transmitted from the member information terminal (PC 7 or mobile phone 8) (S801), and the access request is received. If there is (YES), the login screen shown in D300 of FIG. 48 is distributed to the information terminal (S802). In D300, a message prompting entry of a member card ID and a password is displayed, and an input field for a member card ID and an input field for a password are displayed.

  In D300, when the member card ID and the password are input and the “login” button is operated, a login request including the input member card ID and the password is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus 60. Is done. Note that the member card ID included in the login request may be any member card ID registered in association with the member information DB shown in FIG. Specifically, Mr. Taro XX can log in with any member card ID of AM00001 or CM00001.

  The advertisement management device 60 that has distributed the D300 login screen in S802 waits for reception of the login request transmitted from the information terminal (S803), and if the login request is received (YES), the advertisement management device 60 includes the login request. The member card ID and password are checked against the member card ID and password stored in the member information DB shown in FIG. 2A, and it is determined whether or not the verification is OK (S804). . If it is determined that the collation is NG (NO) in S804, an error screen indicating that the collation is NG is distributed (S805), and the process ends. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S804 that the verification is OK (YES), the points stored in the member information DB in association with the member card ID (hereinafter referred to as “login ID”) included in the login request. Is specified (S806), and banner determination processing shown in FIG. 46 is performed (S807). As this banner determination process, as shown in FIG. 46A, an advertisement banner determination process for determining an advertisement banner to be included in the member-dedicated top page, and as shown in FIG. 46B, included in the member-dedicated top page. A questionnaire banner determination process for determining a questionnaire banner is performed.

  First, the advertisement management apparatus 60 that performs the advertisement banner determination process shown in FIG. 46A determines whether or not the login ID is stored in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 43 (S901). If it is determined in S901 that the login ID is not stored (NO), that is, if there is a login before the member inserts the membership card 2 into the card unit 20 and the advertisement information is displayed, the advertisement The login ID is stored in the display history DB (S902), and the process proceeds to S904. On the other hand, if it is determined in S901 that the login ID is stored (YES), in the advertisement display history DB, the advertisement ID in which the latest operation date is stored among the advertisement IDs corresponding to the login ID. It is determined whether or not there is (S903). If it is determined in S903 that there is no promotion ID in which the latest operation date is stored (NO), that is, it is determined that there is no promotion ID for which a specific operation has been performed, the advertisement banner display set in D220 of FIG. Several minutes of advertisement IDs are determined as advertisement IDs for displaying advertisement banners (S904), and the process proceeds to S913. In this step S904, the advertisements stored in the advertisement DB shown in FIG. 31 are determined in the order of the advertisement plans having the highest advertisement banner display priority. If the ranks are the same, the remaining display periods are determined in ascending order.

  In the process of S904, the control unit 62 functioning as the member-dedicated page transmission unit includes a login including information that can identify a member card ID that is not associated with display specific information (in this case, a promotion ID and the latest operation date). This process is performed to transmit a member-dedicated page (member-dedicated top page) including predetermined browsing-related information (advertisement banner) to the information terminal on the condition that the request is received. According to this, for members who are not browsing the browsing information in the card unit 20 (members who are browsing advertising information but are not performing a specific operation here) By transmitting the page to the information terminal, the member can browse the browsing related information, so that the response of the member to the browsing information can be further improved.

  If it is determined in S903 that there is a promotion ID storing the latest operation date (YES), the promotion ID is extracted (S905), and the extracted promotion ID is first prioritized in D220 of FIG. Rearrangement is performed according to the priority determination conditions set to rank 1 (S906), and then the advertisement IDs having the same rank after the rearrangement are determined according to the priority determination conditions set to priority 2. Rearrangement (S907), and then the advertisement IDs with the same rank after the rearrangement are rearranged according to the priority determination condition set with priority 3 (S908), and then in D220 of FIG. The advertising IDs that match the set priority lowering conditions are rearranged to the lowest order (S909), and the process proceeds to S910.

  The processing of S905 to S909 will be specifically described. First, as shown in D220 of FIG. 42, the number of advertisement banners displayed is set to four. As priority determination conditions, priority 1 is an advertisement plan, priority 2 is the remaining period within 3 days, priority The order 3 is set to be within 3 days from the operation, and the priority reduction condition is that the number of times the advertisement banner is displayed is reduced by 3 times, and the reduction from the web advertisement to the prize exchange is set, An example in which an advertising banner determination process is performed for the login ID of AM000001 in this state will be described. For convenience of explanation, each advertisement associated with the login ID in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. 43 is expressed as “i”, “ro”, “c”, “d”, “e”, and “f” in order from the top.

  First, in step S905, five advertisements i, b, d, e, and f, in which the latest operation date is stored, are extracted. Next, in S906, according to the priority determination condition in which the priority is set to 1, the five extracted plans are arranged in the order of the advertisement plans with the highest advertisement banner display priority (that is, the order of advertisement plans A → B → C). Sorting the advertisements, the first place is Lee and D (Advertising Plan A), the third place is Ro and Ho (Advertising Plan B), and the fifth place is F (Advertising Plan C). In step S907, advertisements with the same order after the rearrangement are rearranged in the order of the remaining periods within three days according to the priority determination condition set with the priority of 2 to 1 The first place is I and D, the third is B (3rd), the fourth is E, and the fifth is F. Next, in S908, the advertisements with the same order after the rearrangement are rearranged in the higher order according to the priority determination condition set with the priority of 3 and the period from the operation within 3 days. 1st place is i (the day), 2nd place is d, 3rd place is b, 4th place is ho, 5th place is f. In S909, the advertisements that match the priority lowering conditions are rearranged to the lowest order, but here there are no advertisements that match the priority lowering conditions, so the first place is I, the second place is the second, the third place is the lower place. 4th place is E and 5th place is F.

  In the processing from S905 to S909, the control unit 62 functioning as the member-dedicated page transmission unit displays the display specification information storage unit (advertisement display history DB) in association with the member card ID specified from the information included in the login request. Among the browsing related information (advertisement banners) related to the browsing information specified from the display specific information (advertisement ID) stored in the above, the browsing related information having a high priority set by the priority setting means is preferentially displayed. This is processing for transmitting a member-dedicated page (member-dedicated top page) to the information terminal. According to this, the member-specific page that gives priority to viewing-related information with high priority is transmitted to the information terminal, so that the member's attention is displayed compared to the case where a plurality of viewing-related information is displayed uniformly. Therefore, the member's reaction to the browsing information can be further improved.

  In S910, it is determined whether or not the number of the extracted advertisement IDs is equal to or greater than the number of advertisement banners set in D220 of FIG. If it is determined in S910 that the number of advertisement IDs is equal to or greater than the number of advertisement banners displayed (YES), advertisement IDs corresponding to the number of advertisement banners displayed from the top of the rank determined in S905 to S909 are displayed. An advertisement ID for displaying an advertisement banner is determined (S911), and the advertisement banner display count corresponding to each determined advertisement ID is added in the advertisement display history DB (S912), and associated with each determined advertisement ID. The advertisement banner file stored in the advertisement DB is extracted (S913), the advertisement banner determination process is terminated, and the process returns to the member-dedicated page transmission process shown in FIG.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S910 that the number of advertisement IDs is less than the number of advertisement banners displayed (NO), the advertisement ID is determined as the advertisement ID for displaying the advertisement banner (S914), and the advertisement display history is determined. In the DB, the advertisement banner display count corresponding to each determined advertisement ID is added (S915), and the advertisements stored in the advertisement DB shown in FIG. Then, the insufficient advertisement ID is extracted, the advertisement ID is determined as the advertisement ID for displaying the advertisement banner (S916), and the process proceeds to S913.

  Further, the advertisement management apparatus 60 that performs the questionnaire banner determination process shown in FIG. 46B determines whether or not the login ID is stored in the questionnaire operation history DB shown in FIG. 44 (S951). If it is determined in S951 that the login ID is not stored (NO), that is, before the member inserts the member card 2 into the card unit 20 and a questionnaire notice is displayed and a specific operation (operation of the questionnaire button) is performed. If there is a login, the login ID is stored in the questionnaire operation history DB (S952), and the process proceeds to S954. On the other hand, if it is determined in S951 that the login ID is stored (YES), the questionnaire ID in which the answered flag 0 is stored among the questionnaire IDs corresponding to the login ID in the questionnaire operation history DB. It is determined whether or not there is (S905). If it is determined in S953 that there is no questionnaire ID in which the answered flag 0 is stored (NO), that is, it is determined that there is no questionnaire ID for which a specific operation is performed but no response is accepted, D220 in FIG. Questionnaire IDs corresponding to the number of questionnaire banners displayed set in are determined as questionnaire IDs for displaying questionnaire banners (S954), and the process proceeds to S963. In S954, the questionnaires are determined in descending order of the questionnaire banner display priority from the target questionnaires stored in the questionnaire DB shown in FIG.

  The processing of S954 includes information that allows the control unit 62 functioning as the member-dedicated page transmission means to specify a member card ID that is not associated with display specific information (here, questionnaire ID and answered flag 0). This process is performed to transmit a member-dedicated page (member-dedicated top page) including predetermined browsing-related information (questionnaire banner) to the information terminal on the condition that the login request is received. According to this, even for members who are not browsing the browsing information in the card unit 20 (members who are not browsing the questionnaire notice here, or members who are browsing the questionnaire notice but are not performing a specific operation) Since the member-dedicated page including the predetermined browsing-related information is transmitted to the information terminal, the member can browse the browsing-related information, so that the response of the member to the browsing information can be further improved. it can.

  If it is determined in S953 that there is a questionnaire ID in which the answered flag 0 is stored (YES), the questionnaire ID is extracted (S955), and the extracted questionnaire ID is set for each questionnaire. The questionnaire banners are rearranged in descending order of priority of the questionnaire banner display (S956), and the process proceeds to S960.

  In the process of S956, the control unit 62 functioning as the member-dedicated page transmission unit stores it in the display specification information storage unit (questionnaire operation history DB) in association with the member card ID specified from the information included in the login request. Of the browsing related information (questionnaire banner) related to the browsing information specified from the display specific information (questionnaire ID) that is displayed, only for members who preferentially displayed the browsing related information set by the priority setting means This is processing for transmitting a page (member-only top page) to the information terminal. According to this, the member-specific page that gives priority to viewing-related information with high priority is transmitted to the information terminal, so that the member's attention is displayed compared to the case where a plurality of viewing-related information is displayed uniformly. Therefore, the member's reaction to the browsing information can be further improved.

  In S960, it is determined whether or not the number of the extracted questionnaire IDs is equal to or greater than the number of questionnaire banners set in D220 of FIG. If it is determined in S960 that the number of survey IDs is equal to or greater than the number of survey banners displayed (YES), survey IDs corresponding to the number of survey banners displayed from the top of the rank determined in S956 are used. Is determined as the questionnaire ID for displaying (S961), the name of the questionnaire stored in the questionnaire DB is extracted in association with each determined questionnaire ID (S963), the questionnaire banner determination process is terminated, and FIG. Return to the member-only page transmission process shown.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S960 that the number of questionnaire IDs is less than the number of questionnaire banners displayed (NO), the questionnaire ID is determined as the questionnaire ID for displaying the questionnaire banner (S964), and FIG. The questionnaire ID is extracted from the target questionnaire stored in the questionnaire DB in the order of the questionnaire plan with the highest questionnaire banner display priority, and the questionnaire ID is determined as the questionnaire ID for displaying the questionnaire banner. Then (S966), the process proceeds to S963.

  Returning to FIG. 45, when the banner determination process in S807 ends, a member-specific top page shown in D301 in FIG. 48 is created and distributed to the information terminal that is the transmission source of the login request (S808). In D301, the login ID and the number of points specified in S806 are displayed, and the advertisement banner extracted in S913 is displayed in order from the top (here, four) according to the order determined in the advertisement banner determination process, and in S963 A questionnaire banner indicating the extracted questionnaire name is displayed in order from the top (in this case, two) according to the order determined in the questionnaire banner determination process, and an “integrated registration” button for accepting an integrated registration operation and a point use operation are accepted. A “use point” button and a “logout” button for accepting a logout operation are displayed.

  When the “integrated registration” button is operated in D301, an integrated registration request is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus 60, and when the “point use” button is operated, the point use request is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management. When one of the advertisement banners is transmitted to the apparatus 60 and a click is made on the advertisement banner, a web advertisement display request including an advertisement ID corresponding to the clicked advertisement banner is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus 60. When a questionnaire banner is clicked, a questionnaire display request including a questionnaire ID corresponding to the clicked questionnaire banner is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus 60. When the “logout” button is operated, the logout is performed. A request is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus 60.

  In D301, an “other advertisement” button for accepting an operation for displaying an advertisement banner other than the displayed advertisement banner is also displayed. When the “other advertisement” button is operated, the advertisement ID extracted in S905 is displayed. Among them, the advertisement banner of the advertisement stored in the advertisement DB in association with the advertisement ID that is not determined to display the advertisement banner on the member-specific top page is distributed and displayed on the information terminal. Yes. In this way, the advertisement banner of the advertisement ID that is not determined to be displayed on the member-dedicated top page operates the “other advertisement” button compared to the advertisement banner of the advertisement ID that is determined to be displayed on the member-only top page. Since it is not displayed unless one extra step is taken, the advertising banner displayed on the member-only top page (ie, browsing-related information with high priority) is compared to the advertising banner not displayed on the member-only top page. , Will be displayed with priority.

  Similarly, in D301, an “other questionnaire” button for accepting an operation for displaying a questionnaire banner other than the displayed questionnaire banner is also displayed. When the “other questionnaire” button is operated, the button is extracted in S955. The questionnaire banner of the questionnaire stored in the questionnaire DB in association with the questionnaire ID that was not determined to be displayed on the member-specific top page among the questionnaire IDs is distributed and displayed on the information terminal Has been. In this way, the questionnaire banner of the questionnaire ID that is not determined to be displayed on the member-dedicated top page operates the “other questionnaire” button compared to the questionnaire banner of the questionnaire ID that is determined to be displayed on the member-specific top page. The questionnaire banner that is displayed on the member-specific top page (that is, browsing-related information with a high priority) is displayed in comparison with the questionnaire banner that is not displayed on the member-specific top page because it is not displayed unless an extra step is taken. , Will be displayed with priority.

  Returning to FIG. 45, the advertisement management apparatus 60 that has distributed the member-dedicated top page of D301 in S808 receives the integrated registration request transmitted from the information terminal (S809), receives the point use request (S810), and displays the web advertisement. It waits for reception of a request (S811), reception of a questionnaire display request (S812), or reception of a logout request (not shown). If there is a logout request received (YES), the member-dedicated page transmission process is terminated.

  If an integrated registration request is received in S809 (YES), the store ID is extracted from the login ID (S821), and the store ID of the store belonging to the group stored in the group DB shown in FIG. It is determined whether it is a store ID (S822). If it is determined that the store ID is not the store ID of the store belonging to the group in S822 (NO), an error screen displaying the message “Cannot be integrated because it is not a group store” is delivered to the information terminal (S823), and S808 is reached. Return. On the other hand, if it is determined in S822 that the store ID belongs to the group (YES), it belongs to the same group (here, ◎◎ group) as the store with the store ID extracted in S821 (for example, store A). A group store (here, A store, B store, C store, and H store) is specified (S824), and among the group stores, the store with the login ID (here, A store) is associated with the login ID. A store with another registered membership card ID (here, store C) is specified as an integrated store (S825), and stores that are not registered in association with the login ID (here, store B and H) Store) is identified as an unintegrated store (S826), and the integrated reception page indicated by D311 and D312 in FIG. 49 is distributed to the information terminal (S827).

  In this D311, the specified group name, integrated store, and unintegrated store are displayed. In D312, which is displayed by operating the “integration” button in D311, an input field for a member card ID and a password is displayed for each of the unintegrated stores. In D312, when one or a plurality of unintegrated stores is entered with a member card ID (here, BM00777) and a personal identification number and the "integration" button is operated, the member card ID and personal identification number are entered together with the member card ID and personal identification number. Integrated ID information including the store ID of the unintegrated store (store B in this case) in which the card ID is input is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management device 60. Here, the store ID included in the integrated ID information is information that can identify the same group store (that is, an unintegrated store) selected on the integrated reception page.

  The advertisement management apparatus 60 that has delivered the integrated reception pages D311 and D312 in S827 waits for reception of integrated ID information transmitted from the information terminal (S828). If the integrated ID information is received in S828 (YES), does the store ID of the unintegrated store included in the integrated ID information match the store ID specified from the member card ID included in the integrated ID information? No, that is, whether or not the member card ID entered in the input field for a certain unintegrated store (for example, B store) is the member card ID of the unintegrated store for the member card ID included in the integrated ID information Is determined (S829). If it is determined in S829 that the store IDs do not match (NO), for example, if the member card ID of store B is entered in the input field of store H, the member integration process is not performed and “ An error screen displaying the message “It is not a membership card ID” is distributed to the information terminal (S830), and the process returns to S808. On the other hand, if it is determined in S829 that the store IDs match (YES), that is, if the member card ID of the B store is input in the input column of the B store, the process proceeds to S831.

  That is, in this example, when the member card ID included in the integrated ID information is a member card ID of an unintegrated store, that is, the stores of the member card IDs to be integrated are not the same, and the stores belong to the same group. Only in the case of a group store, the member integration process is performed. In other words, from the information terminal, for the integration source member card ID already registered in the member information DB (here, the member card ID of the A store and the C store), the store specified from the integration source member card ID A member integration request for integrating the integration target membership card IDs registered in the membership information DB (here, the membership card ID of the store B), which is a membership card ID of a store different from The integration source member card ID and the integration target member card ID are registered in association with each other on the condition that they are not the same store. Further, from the information terminal, for the integrated former member card ID already registered in the member information DB (here, the member card ID of the store A and the store C), the same store as that specified by the integrated member card ID is used. A member integration request for integrating a member card ID of a store belonging to a group and an integration target member card ID already registered in the member information DB (here, a member card ID of a store B) is received (ie, The integration source member card ID and the integration target member card ID are registered in association with each other on the condition that they are in the same group.

  In S831, as member integration processing, member identification information association processing is performed and point summation processing is performed. Specifically, when a member integration process for integrating a login ID (for example, AM000001) and a member card ID of an unintegrated store (here, BM000777) is performed, AM000001 and BM000777 are moved up and down in the member information DB. Both member card IDs are registered in association with each other, and attribute information and point storage fields corresponding to each member card ID are integrated. The attribute information associated with both member card IDs is stored in the integrated attribute information storage column, and the points associated with each member card ID are stored in the integrated point storage column. The total number of points integrated (summed) is stored. However, even if the member integration processing is performed, the password information storage field is not integrated in the member information DB, but is stored corresponding to each member card ID.

  The advertisement management apparatus 60 that has performed the member integration processing in S831 identifies the point after integration (S832), and distributes the integrated registration completion screen shown in D313 of FIG. 49 to the information terminal (S833). In D313, the integrated store and the points after integration are displayed. When the “top page” button is operated in D313, a top page display request is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus 60. The advertisement management apparatus 60 that delivered the integrated registration completion screen of D313 in S833 waits for reception of a top page display request transmitted from the information terminal (S834), and if there is reception of the top page display request (YES). , Return to S808.

  As described above, when a member integration request for integrating the integration source member card ID and the integration target member card ID is received, the store identified from the integration source member card ID and the integration target member card ID Can be integrated only when the stores identified from the above are group stores belonging to the same group, the points corresponding to each member card ID can be used together, and used to improve customer attraction at group stores can do.

  Further, when a member integration request for integrating the integration source member card ID and the integration target member card ID is received, the store specified from the integration source member card ID and the store specified from the integration target member card ID Since the integration is performed only when the membership card is different, the points of the member who lost the membership card recorded with the membership card ID may be integrated with the points of other members who picked up the membership card. It is possible to reduce the risk that a member who has lost the membership card suffers a disadvantage. That is, if integration is performed even if the stores match, the member who picks up the membership card can also use the points of the member who lost the membership card, and the member who lost the membership card arbitrarily However, according to this, since the integration is not performed when the stores match, the disadvantage is not incurred.

  In addition, since the integration source member card ID and each store corresponding to the integration target member card ID do not match, for example, the member of the store A picks up the member card of another store A at the store A When trying to integrate the member card of the other store A picked up and the member card of his own store B, the integration is performed, but the member card of the other store A picked up is tried to be integrated. The member who owns the A store membership card and is usually already registered as a store member or is trying to integrate with the own store A membership card to be registered. In many cases, integration can be prevented.

  If the point use request is received in S810 (YES), the point use pages D321 to D334 shown in FIGS. 50 and 51 are sequentially delivered to the information terminal (S841). These point use pages are web pages that the advertisement management apparatus 60 functioning as a web server sequentially delivers to the information terminals based on the premium information (FIG. 21) stored in the hard disk 65.

  Here, each page of D321 to D327 is substantially the same as the screen of D21 to D27 shown in FIG. 15, except that the number of exchange points is displayed instead of the number of exchange balls. In D331, which is advanced by operating the “OK” button from D325, the number of points of the member, the prize name, the number of exchanges, and the number of exchange points of the prize determined in D325 are displayed. Each page of D332, D333, and D334 that is advanced by operating the “exchange” button from D331 is the same as the screens of D32, D33a, and D34a shown in FIG. When the “OK” button is operated in D334, exchange information including a prize ID, a prize name, the number of exchange points, the number of exchanges, a delivery classification, a membership card ID, delivery destination information, and a delivery desired date / time is sent from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus. 60 is transmitted.

  The advertisement management apparatus 60 after transmitting the page of D334 in S841 waits for reception of the exchange information transmitted from the information terminal (S842), and if the exchange information is received (YES), The accumulated reservation number stored in the accumulated reservation / determined number DB shown in FIG. 22 in association with the included prize ID is acquired from the prize management device 70 (S843), and the prize information stored in the hard disk 65 (see FIG. 21) based on the stock quantity stored in association with the prize ID included in the exchange information, the cumulative number of reservations acquired from the prize management device 70, and the exchange quantity included in the exchange information. -It is determined whether or not the prize can be exchanged based on whether or not the determination formula of (reserved cumulative number + exchanged number) ≧ 0 is satisfied (S844).

  If it is determined in S844 that the determination formula is not satisfied (NO), that is, it is determined that the stock quantity is insufficient, an error screen displaying the message “The prize cannot be exchanged because the stock quantity is insufficient” is delivered to the information terminal. (S845), and the process returns to S808. On the other hand, if the determination formula is satisfied in S844 (YES), that is, if it is determined that the stock quantity is sufficient, it is determined whether or not the member's point number is equal to or greater than the exchange point number (S846).

  If it is determined in S846 that the number of points of the member is less than the number of exchange points (NO), that is, the payment cannot be made, an error screen displaying a message that “there is no point and cannot exchange the prize” is displayed on the information terminal. (S847), and the process returns to S808. On the other hand, if it is determined in S846 that the number of points of the member is equal to or greater than the number of exchange points (YES), that is, payment can be made, the prize ID included in the exchange information is displayed in the advertisement display history DB shown in FIG. The exchanged flag 1 is stored in association (S848), and the exchange point number is subtracted from the member point number stored in association with the login ID in the member information DB shown in FIG. In step S849, the exchange information is transmitted to the prize management device 70 (S850).

  The prize management device 70 that has received this exchange information generates a delivery ID in substantially the same manner as in the delivery information registration process, and associates the delivery ID with the delivery ID, the prize ID, the prize name, and the number of exchange points included in the exchange information. , The number of exchanges, delivery classification, member card ID, delivery destination information, and delivery desired date and time are registered, and processing for delivering the prize of the prize ID to the member is performed. Further, the reservation cumulative number and the fixed cumulative number stored in association with the prize ID in the reservation / confirmed cumulative number DB shown in FIG. 22 are added one by one. Further, the generated delivery ID is transmitted to the advertisement management device 60.

  The advertisement management device 60 that has transmitted the exchange information in S850 waits for reception of the delivery ID transmitted from the prize management device 70 (S851). If the delivery ID is received (YES), the process proceeds to D335 in FIG. The prize exchange completion screen shown is distributed to the information terminal (S852). In D335, the fact that the prize exchange has been completed, the number of points after subtraction in S849, and the delivery ID received in S851 are displayed. When the “top page” button is operated in D335, a top page display request is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus 60. The advertisement management device 60 that has delivered the premium exchange completion screen of D335 in S852 waits for reception of a top page display request transmitted from the information terminal (S853), and if there is reception of the top page display request (YES). , Return to S808.

  When the web advertisement display request is received in S811 (YES), the points of the banner click grant points set in the advertisement plan corresponding to the advertisement ID included in the web advertisement display request are shown in FIG. Is added to the number of points of the member stored in association with the login ID (S861). It is to be noted that points are given once for each advertisement ID once a day, and even if the advertisement banner of the advertisement ID for which points have already been given on that day is clicked again, no points are given for the advertisement ID.

  The control unit 62 that performs the process of S861 is included in the received login request on condition that a member-only page including browsing-related information other than questionnaire-related information (that is, web advertisement as advertisement-related information) is transmitted. It functions as a point management means for performing processing for adding points of a predetermined size to the points managed in association with the member card ID specified from the information. According to this, when a member-dedicated page containing browsing-related information other than questionnaire-related information is sent to the member's information terminal, the member's points are added to prompt login to the member-dedicated page. Therefore, the member's reaction to the browsing information can be further improved.

  The advertisement management device 60 that has performed the process of S861 determines whether or not the advertisement type of the advertisement ID included in the web advertisement display request is a provided premium advertisement (S862).

According to this, it is possible to give bonus electronic money of an amount based on the content of the answer, for example, an amount commensurate with the amount of the answer. The determined grant amount is counted for each advertiser every predetermined period (for example, every month) and charged separately from the questionnaire fee.

  The advertisement management device 60 that has determined the amount of bonus electronic money granted in S875 determines the mobile phone ID managed in association with the login ID in the member information DB shown in FIG. The issuance request including the request is transmitted to the electronic money management server 80 (S876).

  The electronic money management server 80 that has received the issuance request transmits a fund transfer request including the grant amount included in the issuance request to the financial institution server 90B in which the gift account and settlement account of the card company are provided. (S881). Receiving the fund transfer request, the financial institution server 90B determines whether or not the balance of the gift account (gift funds) is equal to or greater than the grant amount included in the fund transfer request (S882). Here, if the gift account balance is less than the grant amount (NO), an error process is performed to notify the advertisement management apparatus 60 via the electronic money management server 80 that funds cannot be transferred. On the other hand, if the gift account balance is equal to or greater than the grant amount (YES), the amount of grant amount is transferred from the balance of the gift account to the settlement account (S883), and the funds transfer completion information is sent to the electronic money management server 80. Then, it is transmitted (S884).

  The electronic money management server 80 that has received the funds transfer completion information generates an issuance number for the mobile phone ID and the grant amount included in the issuance request, and uses the mobile phone ID in the issuance history DB shown in FIG. The generated issue number is stored in association with the ID, the grant amount is stored as the issue amount, “grant” is stored as the type, and “0” (that is, the issue amount is charged to the mobile phone 8 as the charged flag) (S885), issuance completion information is transmitted to the advertisement management device 60 (S886), and the e-mail of DK18 (see FIG. 7) is associated with the mobile phone ID. Then, the message is transmitted to the mobile phone 8 having the e-mail address registered in the electronic money DB shown in FIG. 3A (S887). In this e-mail, you will be notified that the bonus electronic money for the issue amount (300 yen in this case) has been granted, and the issue number. A charge request transmission link is displayed. Then, when the electronic mail is expanded and the transmission link of the charge request is clicked, the electronic money charging process described in FIG. 6 is performed, and the issued amount is stored (charged) in the IC chip of the mobile phone 8. Is done.

  Here, the control unit 62 and the communication unit 61 of the advertisement management device 60 store an electronic money storage medium (mobile phone 8) owned by the member on condition that the member-dedicated page including the browsing related information (questionnaire) is transmitted. On the other hand, it functions as an electronic money issuance processing means for performing an electronic money issuance process for storing electronic money given as a privilege to the member, and here transmits a member-dedicated page including questionnaire related information, and Electronic money issuing processing is performed on the condition that an answer to the questionnaire regarding the questionnaire related information is received. Specifically, by sending an issuance request to the electronic money management server 80 in S876, the electronic money management server 80 issues electronic money in S885, and then the electronic money described in FIG. Since the charging process is performed and the electronic money is stored (charged) in the IC chip of the mobile phone 8, the process of transmitting the issue request in S876 corresponds to the electronic money issuing process.

  According to this, since the electronic money is given as a privilege, login to the member-dedicated page can be promoted, so that the response of the member to the browsing information (in this case, acceptance of the answer to the questionnaire) can be further improved. In particular, when a member-specific page containing questionnaire-related information relating to a predetermined questionnaire as browsing-related information is transmitted to the information terminal and accepting an answer to the questionnaire, electronic money as a privilege is given, so that browsing information It is possible to improve the response of the member, that is, the response rate of the questionnaire, and the questionnaire effect can be enhanced.

  In addition, on the condition that the answer to the questionnaire is accepted, bonus electronic money is granted, and on the other hand, points are granted on the condition that a member-only page including advertisement related information (web advertisement) is transmitted as described in S861. This is because it takes time to answer the questionnaire, so it can be used not only for gaming but also for purchasing various products and services, while giving high-use electronic money while browsing web advertisements. This is because it does not take time and effort to give points that are less useful than electronic money. However, even if points are given by browsing web advertisements, they can be exchanged for provided prizes and have utility value, so it is possible to prompt login to the members-only page, so members for viewing information (unit advertisements) It is possible to improve the reaction and improve the advertising effect.

  Further, as described above, in the financial institution server 90B, on the condition that the amount of money given to the payment account is transferred from the balance of the gift account to the settlement account in S883, the electronic money management server 80 receives the electronic money in S885. Since the issuance is made, electronic money will not be issued beyond the balance of the gift account, so even if the card company operator performs an illegal operation, it will exceed the gift funds deposited in the gift account Damage can be prevented from spreading.

  Upon receiving the issuance completion information of S887, the advertisement management device 60 stores the answered flag 1 in association with the questionnaire ID included in the questionnaire display request in the questionnaire operation history DB shown in FIG. 44 (S891). The privilege electronic money issue completion page shown in D304 of FIG. 48 is distributed to the information terminal (S892). In D304, the fact that the e-mail of DK18 has been transmitted to the mobile phone 8 is displayed.

  In D304, when purchase site link information is stored in association with the questionnaire ID in the questionnaire DB shown in FIG. 40, a “purchase site” button is displayed. Here, the “purchase site” button is operated by the member in order to acquire the advertising target of the advertisement-related information (here, the target of the questionnaire) by using the magnitude of value (money etc.) owned by the member. The link information includes the purchase site link information, and information that the access to the purchase site by the operation of the button is a transition from the member-dedicated page, and the operation of the button (that is, the link information) The purchase site accessed by the operation) is configured such that the price required for acquiring the advertising target is discounted. In response to the “Purchase Site” button, the fact that the discount is to be performed is displayed.

  Similar to S863 and S867, the control unit 62 and the communication unit 61 that perform the process of S892 function as member-dedicated page transmission means, and the control unit 62 that performs the process of S892 includes the S863 and S867. In the same manner as the above, it functions as a discount processing means.

  In D304, when the “Purchase Site” button is operated, the purchase site is accessed from the information terminal, and when the “Top Page” button is operated, a top page display request is transmitted from the information terminal to the advertisement management apparatus 60. . The advertisement management apparatus 60 that has distributed the bonus electronic money issuance completion page D304 in S892 waits for reception of a top page display request (S893) transmitted from the information terminal, and if there is reception of the top page display request ( YES), the process returns to S808.

  As described above, according to the information distribution function of the information display / distribution system 1 according to the present invention, when the advertisement management device 60 receives a login request from an information terminal owned by a member, the card unit 20 of the game arcade A member-only page containing browsing related information related to the browsing information displayed for the member is transmitted to the information terminal, so that the browsing related information related to the browsing information displayed to the member is browsed. Therefore, the member's reaction to the browsing information can be improved.

  Here, in the system shown in Patent Document 1, since browsing information is only displayed on an information display device provided in a store, there is a problem that a member's reaction to the browsing information is low.

  For example, in the case where the browsing information displayed on the information display device of Patent Document 1 is an advertisement urging the acquisition of goods or services, even if the advertisement is displayed during a game, the awareness of the member is weak, so There is a problem that the reaction of acquiring the product or service that is the object of the advertisement is low (the frequency of acquisition is low). On the other hand, according to the present invention, since the advertisement is displayed again on the member-dedicated page in a calm situation where the member is not playing a game, awareness of the member is strengthened and the member is a target of the advertisement. The reaction of acquiring a product or service can be improved (the frequency of acquisition is increased). In other words, the advertising effect can be enhanced.

  Further, in the case where the browsing information displayed on the information display device of Patent Document 1 is an advertisement that promotes participation in an event, even if the advertisement is displayed during a game, the awareness of the member is weak, so the member There is a problem that the reaction of participating in an event that is the target of promotion is low (the frequency of participation is low). On the other hand, according to the present invention, since the advertisement is displayed again on the member-dedicated page in a calm situation where the member is not playing a game, awareness of the member is strengthened and the member is a target of the advertisement. The response of participating in the event can be improved (increased frequency of participation). In other words, the advertising effect can be enhanced.

  In addition, when the browsing information displayed on the information display device of Patent Document 1 is an advertisement that promotes compliance with laws, social norms, or morality (hereinafter referred to as “morality etc.”), the advertisement is displayed during the game. Even if is displayed, since the awareness of the member is weak, there is a problem that the response that the member observes the morality or the like that is the object of the advertisement is low (the frequency of compliance is low). On the other hand, according to the present invention, since the advertisement is displayed again on the member-dedicated page in a calm situation where the member is not playing a game, awareness of the member is strengthened and the member is a target of the advertisement. The response to observing morals can be improved (the frequency of observing is increased). In other words, the advertising effect can be enhanced.

  Further, in the case where the browsing information displayed on the information display device of Patent Document 1 is a questionnaire, even if the questionnaire is displayed during the game, the members answer the questionnaire because the members are concentrated in the game. The response is low (response rate is low). On the other hand, according to the present invention, since the questionnaire is displayed on the member-dedicated page in a calm situation where the member is not playing a game, the response that the member answers the questionnaire can be improved. As described above, since the privilege electronic money is given to the answer to the questionnaire, the answer rate of the questionnaire can be improved and the questionnaire effect can be enhanced.

  In the above embodiment, an example in which the information display / distribution system 1 according to the present invention is applied to a game arcade has been described, but the present invention can also be applied to stores other than the game arcade. However, it is more effective to apply to the information display device with the originally low response of the member than to the information response device with the originally high response of the member.

  For example, in a bank, when an ATM (automated teller machine) installed in the bank is used as an information display device and a depositor's cash card is received at the ATM, the “Introducing a new deposit with a high interest rate” "Okay" message is displayed on the display, and if the depositor accepts an operation of "No", the normal transaction screen is displayed on the display, and if an operation of "Yes" is accepted, what is the normal transaction screen? Separately, in the example of displaying the advertisement and questionnaire of the new deposit on the display, the depositor is not performing the transaction operation by displaying the advertisement or questionnaire separately from the normal transaction screen (that is, the display) Because they will see advertisements and questionnaires with a high level of awareness of the content), the members' response is high in nature and is highly relevant to banking operations. By advertising and questionnaire are displayed, easy to lead to answers to the questionnaire and (the new contract of deposit in this example) acquisition of propaganda target.

  On the other hand, in a bank, when an ATM is used as an information display device and a depositor's cash card is received at the ATM, an advertisement or a questionnaire is displayed together with a normal transaction screen. Since the advertisements and questionnaires are viewed in the state where the user is performing (i.e., the consciousness of the displayed content is low), the response of the member is originally low. Further, as in the above-described embodiment, in the case where advertisements and questionnaires are displayed on the card unit 20 of the game hall, the player is in a state of playing the game (that is, the player is concentrated in the game and has a low awareness of the display contents). In the state), advertisements and questionnaires are viewed, so if the advertisements and questionnaires have low response from members, and are not related to games, it is difficult to obtain advertisements and answer questionnaires.

  In this way, when the information distribution function of the present invention is applied to an example where the reaction of the member is originally low, the browsing related information regarding the browsing information (advertisement, questionnaire) displayed on the information display device is displayed on the member-dedicated page. Depositors and players see advertisements and questionnaires when they are not doing other work (ie, they are highly conscious of the displayed content), so the response of members who were originally low becomes very high, and the target of promotion It is much more effective than applying the information distribution function of the present invention to an example where the response of the member is originally high. In other words, the information distribution function of the present invention, when applied to a display of advertisements and questionnaires that do not stop the original purpose (transaction operation or game) even if advertisements or questionnaires are displayed, and is less relevant to the original purpose. It is effective.
