INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

A reservation, where the number of days from a date of reservation to a date of use exceeds the number of days that correspond to a credit period, is accepted as a reservation where settlement by a credit card is designated while maintaining the safety of settlement of usage fee. When a reservation where the number of days from today to a date of use exceeds the number of days of a credit period is requested, an information processing apparatus checks validity of the designated credit card. At this time, if the designated credit card can be confirmed to be valid, the information processing apparatus accepts the reservation and stores information of the designated credit card in a storage means. The information processing apparatus checks the validity of the designated credit card on or after a date on which the number of days from the date to a date of use of a service whose reservation is accepted is the number of the credit days on the basis of the information stored in the storage means. At this time, if the credit card cannot be confirmed to be valid, the information processing apparatus outputs information indicating that a settlement method is changed to a method different from a settlement method performed by using the designated credit card.
