Then, the coupon management unit 120 issues a new coupon authentication number for the issue target and transmits it to the integrated coupon issuing server 300. The coupon authentication number may be in the form of code information such as a digital code in addition to a direct number form such as a number.

3A is a diagram illustrating an example of a personalized URL transmission transmitted from a member company server according to an embodiment of the present application, and FIG. 3B is another example of a personalized URL transmission transmitted from an integrated coupon management device according to an embodiment of the present application. The figure is shown.

The integrated coupon issuing server 300 transmits an integrated coupon use guide message to the user terminal 200 according to user information previously registered for each issue target (ie, user). According to an exemplary embodiment, an integrated coupon use guide message may be transmitted from a subject (for example, a card company or a bank) that provides a coupon or points to the user terminal 200. Referring to FIG. 3A, when the subject transmits an integrated coupon use guide message to the user terminal 200, the integrated coupon issuing server 300 may include a coupon authentication number and inactivated integrated coupon issuing information transmitted from the communication unit 110. And a personalization URL associated with the integrated coupon use guide message to be transmitted to a server associated with the subject, and the server associated with the subject receives the integrated coupon use guide message received from the integrated coupon issuing server 300. It may transmit to the user terminal 200.

3B illustrates an example of transmitting an integrated coupon usage guide message directly from the integrated coupon issuing server 300 to the user terminal 200. If the integrated coupon issuing server 300 directly transmits the integrated coupon use guide message to the user terminal 200, unlike the example of Figure 3a to transmit the integrated coupon use guide message to the user terminal 200 without the coupon authentication number Can be. Since the integrated coupon issuing server 300 recognizes the integrated coupon issuing target because it receives the information on the integrated coupon issuing target from the server associated with the subject and directly sends the integrated coupon use guide message to the corresponding subject, Integrated coupon authentication through the authentication number can be omitted.

The deactivated integrated coupon issuance information refers to the issuance information of the coupon before the use state of the integrated coupon according to the coupon authentication number input, personal authentication, and password input described later. The personalization URL may be generated for each coupon issuing subject and may be transmitted for each coupon point information and transmitted from the integrated coupon issuing server 300 to the user terminal 200. The integrated coupon issuing server 300 may generate a personalization URL corresponding to only one user terminal 200. The personalization URL includes a URL for accessing a page for product selection and a coupon authentication number for authenticating that the personalization URL is legitimate access information. The URL and the authentication number may be generated by being encrypted. In addition, the personalized URL may be generated in the form of a shortened URL.

The personalized URL is a link for accessing the integrated coupon exchange center operated through the integrated coupon management server 100. For example, the personalized URL access link may be a link that automatically executes a mobile application that performs a connection and various processes to the integrated coupon exchange station mounted on the user terminal 200. In this case, the mobile application mounted on the user terminal 200 implements a user interface provided through the integrated coupon management server 100 on the user terminal. In addition, the access link may be an access link to an address of the mobile website or the online website of the integrated coupon exchange. The integrated coupon use guide message will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B below.

Referring to FIGS. 3A and 3B, the coupon authentication number and the personalization URL may be in the form of at least one of a message form (SMS (Short Message Service), LMS (Long Message Service) and MMS (Multimedia Message Service), etc.). ) May be sent. The user may recognize that there is integrated coupon issuance information provided to the user through the message, and may request the integrated coupon authentication by accessing the URL and entering a coupon authentication number. In this case, when the message is received from the integrated coupon issuing server 300, the integrated coupon authentication through the coupon authentication number may be omitted. In other words, the execution of the personalization URL in the user terminal 200 means that the user operates the input means of the user terminal 200 to click the personalization URL and access the link. In this case, when the personalized URL is executed on the user terminal 200, the personalized URL may be automatically decrypted to output a coupon authentication number input screen. As such, by performing an integrated coupon authentication request through a personalized URL, a separate membership is omitted, and authentication for using the integrated coupon can be made without installing a separate app or program in the user terminal 200.

In addition, the deactivated integrated coupon issuance information may include coupon point information, and the message may output coupon point information associated with a coupon issuance target, ie, a user. 3A and 3B, the coupon point information may be output as the amount of coupon points provided to the user. For reference, "i-coupon" of Figures 3a, 3b may be a name of the integrated coupon of the present application. In addition to the coupon verification number and personalized URL access link, the message includes the information of the provider who is providing the coupon points to the user (for example, the card company, etc.), the name of the user who is issued (ie, the customer name), and the application period for issuing the integrated coupon. (Activation period), and various product information of the integrated coupon may be further included.

4A is a diagram illustrating an example of agreement of terms and conditions through a personalization URL of an integrated coupon management apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application, and FIG. 4B is an integrated coupon through personalization URL of an integrated coupon management apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application. 4 is a view showing an example of authentication, Figure 4c is a view showing an example of identity authentication through a personalized URL of the integrated coupon management device according to an embodiment of the present application, Figure 4d is an integrated coupon according to an embodiment of the present application It is a figure which shows the example of simple password setting of a management apparatus.

The integrated coupon authentication will be described in detail. The communicator 110 may receive an integrated coupon authentication request from the user terminal 200 that receives a personalization URL associated with a coupon authentication number and inactivated integrated coupon issuance information. 4A illustrates an example of agreement agreement output from the user terminal 200 accessing the personalization URL. The user terminal 200 accesses the personalization URL through the integrated coupon usage guide message sent from the server associated with the subject, or accesses the personalization URL through the integrated coupon usage guide message sent from the integrated coupon issuing server 300. In all cases, a screen for confirming the agreement of the terms and conditions for using the integrated coupon can be output. A case in which the user terminal 200 receives an integrated coupon usage guide message transmitted from a server associated with the subject will be described first. When the user terminal 200 receives a user input that agrees to the terms and conditions, as shown in FIG. 4B, a screen for performing integrated coupon authentication may be output. When the user terminal 200 receives the integrated coupon usage guide message transmitted from the server associated with the subject, the coupon manager 120 needs to check whether the integrated coupon usage guide message is received by the correct user, and thus included in the message. By receiving a user input for inputting the coupon authentication number from the user terminal 200 can be confirmed that the correct user through the coupon authentication number. Herein, the coupon authentication number included in the message is an authentication number generated by the integrated coupon management server 100. Next, the user terminal 200 may receive a user input for the coupon authentication number, and transmit it to the integrated coupon management server 100 together with the integrated coupon authentication request. The coupon manager 120 compares the coupon authentication number received with the integrated coupon authentication request from the user terminal 200 through the communication unit 110 with the coupon authentication number transmitted to the integrated coupon issuing server 300 and is correct. It can be confirmed that the integrated coupon issuance information. In addition, the coupon management unit 120 may perform an authentication procedure for authenticating whether the coupon authentication number transmitted from the current user terminal 200 is valid according to the coupon authentication number generation rule set by itself. When the personalization URL is accessed through the integrated coupon usage guide message transmitted from the server 300, as described above, since the coupon issuing server 300 recognizes the coupon issuance target, the integrated coupon authentication through the coupon authentication number is performed. May be omitted. However, in order to determine whether the access of the personalized URL is a legitimate user's access, an identity verification of a coupon issue target (user) may be performed. Referring to FIG. 4C, the coupon manager 120 may perform authentication of an integrated coupon issuance target linked to the integrated coupon issuance information. For example, the coupon manager 120 may transmit a user interface for authenticating the user to the user terminal 200 through the communication unit 110, and information (eg, a mobile phone) of the user terminal 200 may be provided on the user interface. Number) may be input and displayed in advance. Since the integrated coupon issuing target has already been specified and the guide message has been delivered to the user terminal 200 of the corresponding user, the information of the user terminal 200 cannot be arbitrarily changed by the user. In addition, when the user terminal 200 receives the authentication number request input through the user interface, the user terminal 200 is information for user authentication from the integrated coupon management server 100 or a separate certification authority server (not shown) Receive (User Authentication Information). Next, when the information (user authentication information) for the user authentication is input through the user interface, the user authentication information is input to the integrated coupon management server 100 or a separate certification authority server ( (Not shown) to perform user authentication. For example, the user authentication information may be connection information (CI) provided through a server (not shown) operated by a mobile certification authority. For reference, the linkage information is an encrypted joint identifier used on a website for linking a service. If the linkage service is linked between vendors, an identification for identifying the same user at each linked site (or server, etc.) Information. In addition, the user terminal 200 that has performed the integrated coupon authentication through the coupon authentication number described with reference to FIG. 4B may omit the process of identity verification of FIG. 4C.

The coupon manager 120 may transmit a simple password generation request for activating the integrated coupon issuance information deactivated to the user terminal 200 in which the integrated coupon authentication or the user authentication is completed through FIG. 4B or 4C. Referring to FIG. 4D, the user terminal 200 may receive a user input for a simple password according to a simple password generation request, and the coupon manager 120 may respond to the simple password generation request through the communication unit 110. In addition, the user may receive a simple password input by the user. In addition, the storage 140 may store the simple password through the received response in association with the integrated coupon issuance target information. In addition, the coupon management unit 120 may activate the integrated coupon issuing information inactivated based on the simple password, and transmit the activated integrated coupon issuing information to the user terminal through the communication unit 110. The activated integrated coupon issuance information means information of the integrated coupon in a usable state according to the coupon authentication number input, personal authentication and simple password input. When the user authentication and the simple password are set, the user terminal 200 may receive the integrated coupon issuance information activated from the integrated coupon management server 100.

The user may recognize the coupon point provided to the user through the coupon point information associated with the activated integrated coupon issuance information. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, coupon points may be divided into a plurality of levels having different selectable limits for at least one of a product type and a product price. The product type may include, but is not limited to, for example, a mobile coupon, a mobile bearer voucher, an actual gift voucher, and a gift voucher to be transferred to another person. In addition, the coupon points may be divided into a plurality of levels having different limits depending on the numerical value (amount, for example, 5000 coupon points and 10,000 coupon points). That is, the user may select such that the amount according to any one product or a combination of two or more products is equal to or less than the coupon point provided to the user.

As described above, since the personalization URL is generated for each coupon issuer and coupon point information, different personalization URLs may be provided to the same integrated coupon issuer. The coupon manager 120 may receive an integrated coupon authentication request for the personalized URL generated for each coupon point information from the user terminal 200. In other words, even when the same integrated coupon issuance target, integrated coupon authentication may be performed using different coupon authentication numbers. The coupon manager 120 may check whether the integrated coupon issuance target information received from the member company server 500 matches the integrated coupon issuance target information previously stored in the storage 140. If the coupon issuance target information at the time of the integrated coupon authentication for the new personalized URL is identical to the coupon issuance target information stored at the time of the integrated coupon authentication, it may be determined that the same user terminal 200 performs the new integrated coupon authentication. . If the integrated coupon issuance target information received from the member company server 500 is pre-stored, authentication and simple password generation may be omitted before the step of receiving the simple password. If you are the first user to perform integrated coupon verification, you need to go through the procedure of authenticating yourself and creating a simple password.However, by entering the simple password that was originally created when performing the integrated coupon verification through the new personalized URL, Omission of the integrated coupon authentication process can be simplified. In addition, in the prior art in which a simple password has not been set, if a user information and a personalization URL are leaked by hacking the user terminal 200, there is a possibility that a coupon point is stolen or abused regardless of the user's intention. However, by setting a simple password when performing the first integrated coupon authentication, it is possible to prevent abuse of coupon points irrelevant to the user's intention.

According to the exemplary embodiment of the present application, the integrated coupon management server 100 may integrate and manage different coupon points associated with activated integrated coupon issuing information among different integrated coupon issuing information for the same integrated coupon issuing target information. have. That is, the integrated coupon management server 100 may integrate and manage a plurality of personalized URLs and coupon issuing information that are individually generated according to the coupon issuer and the coupon point in association with the same integrated coupon issuance target information. In addition, the coupon manager 120 may provide coupon point information associated with the integrated coupon point to the user terminal 200 through the communication unit 110. For example, a user activates the integrated coupon issuance information including 5000 points through the first personalization URL to hold the current 5000 points, and then activates the new integrated coupon issuance information through the second personalization URL to activate 10000 points. If provided, the coupon management unit 120 may add the 5000 points previously activated and 10,000 points recently activated to provide 15000 points as coupon points held by the user. The user may check 15000 points of information even if the user accesses a page for product selection through the first personalization URL or the second personalization URL. The coupon manager 120 may manage the integrated coupon point information by accumulating or subtracting new coupon points to existing coupon points whenever new integrated coupon issuance information is activated or a portion of the coupon points is used. In addition, the validity period of each coupon point is separately managed, and when the user uses some coupon points among the integrated coupon points, the validity period may arrive first. Even if a subject (eg, a bank, a shopping mall, etc.) providing the integrated coupon issuing information is different from each other, coupon points of different integrated coupon issuing information provided to the same user may be integrated into one coupon point. Therefore, since all coupon points provided by various subjects are provided to the user by integrating them into one, not only the management of the coupon points is easy, but also unlike the conventional method of using each of the coupon points, a product can be selected within the integrated coupon points.
