A vender terminal, when an order of an article is received through a communication network from a user terminal, issues an authentication request through the communication network to an authentication center terminal. The authentication center terminal carries out an authentication process in response to the authentication request from the vender terminal, and reports an authentication result to the vender terminal. The vender terminal reports an allowance or rejection of the order of the article to the user terminal, on the basis of this authentication result. The above-mentioned configuration enables the improvement of a safety in an electronic commerce and sureness in an authentication procedure. Moreover, it is possible to simplify a procedure for registering an authentication information and make a management of an authentication information effective. |
