MANAGEMENT DEVICE FOR POINT CIRCULATION BETWEEN CONSTITUENT MEMBERS, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR POINT CIRCULATION BETWEEN CONSTITUENT MEMBERS

摘要

In order to grant points in response to actions that contribute to a community and to enable the application of discounts using these points during buying and selling of merchandise between constituent members of the community, a management device (1) for point circulation between constituent members receives exhibited merchandise information including a web page from a constituent member terminal (2a) and provides a sales site. Meanwhile, when a diary submission or the like is received from a constituent member terminal (2a), a point value is granted in response to the action of this constituent member, and a point balance is recorded for each constituent member in a database. If a constituent member purchases merchandise at the sales site, a discount is applied corresponding to the level of interpersonal relations between constituent members, and the management device (1) for point circulation between constituent members subtracts a point value corresponding to the discounted cost from the point balance in the database.
