Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The entire process of points from their cradle to their grave will be fully automated, starting with point users' all-point settlement, settling used points, and even providing compensation to affiliated stores, which are the final destination. [Background technology]

[0002] Among cutting-edge IT technologies, memory, calculation, and communication systems are fully mobilized. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] Patent application numbers: 2022-140421, 2022-98497, 2023-076548, and 2024-026077 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The true nature of points is discount coupons that have been given out at a rate of 1 point per 100 yen. The current situation with points is that they are strangling themselves by dividing up the days of the week and times and setting up excessive points distribution days such as 5x days and 10x days. The root cause of this is the compensation amount for the discount at 1 point = 1 yen, which has ballooned to an amount that cannot be ignored as the number of points has increased. Means to solve the problem

[0005] To begin with, if the number of points that make up a unit price doubles, the value of that point will naturally be halved. Nevertheless, the problem began when people were so hung up on the initial catchphrase "save and spend" that they underestimated the risk of saving and then spending all at once. The first step to solving this problem is to dispel the misconceptions on the supply side.

[0006] Points are likened to cluster bombs, which are a problem on the Ukrainian front. The word "cluster" comes from a bunch of grapes. If 10 points are likened to a bunch of grapes and priced at 1 yen, then the price of one grape divided by 10 (1 yen ÷ 10p) is 10 sen. The relationship between a grape and a bunch of grapes is aptly condensed into 1 point and 10x Day Points. It turns out that the true nature of 10x Day Points is 10 equal parts of 1 point.

[0007] If we consider traditional points, which are based on numbers, the deciding factor for points that can be divided into five equal parts is the size of the collection, that is, the unit price of points. If the unit price is set at 1, the number of points stored there will fluctuate depending on the trend in the unit price. If the unit price is considered a closed door, it is possible to artificially create a phenomenon where an increase in the unit price of points results in a decrease in the number, and a decrease in the unit price results in an increase in the number. If we define a double points day as a grouping of 10 points into two, then the price of one bag divided into five bags (1 yen ÷ 5 bags) is 20 sen, and if five points are grouped together and divided into two bags in the same way, the price of one bag (1 yen ÷ 2 bags) is 50 sen.

[0008] If you buy a 100-yen can of coffee for 100 points, you receive no change for each coin. If you convert this to points, each priced at 50 sen, you receive 50 yen in change for the 50 yen can of coffee you paid for. To receive change when paying with points, you must insert 100 points for a purchase that goes for 50 yen. In other words, if you use the 50 yen change you receive when paying 100 yen with All Points to cover the discount, you can completely negate the existence of point redemption costs. The only way to keep the change that should be returned to the purchaser is by settling the hostage points obtained with All Points. Point users are free to use their change however they like. Compensating for the point discount is essential for smooth operation. This is an ideal way to effectively utilize change, especially when endangered species are a concern. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] Rakuten Points, which began in 2002, reached a total of 3 trillion points by the end of last year, marking its 20th anniversary. This has the effect of making the 3 trillion yen cost of rewards, at 1 yen per point, disappear in an instant. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0010] [Figure 1] The reality of double points day and five times points day [Figure 2] The "change" generated by all-point payments will be used to cover the discount. [Figure 3] A system of "first use, later profit" where funds are provided and paid for later Mode for carrying out the invention

[0011] Since settlement is only possible for used points, bold release is possible. A 10,000 point / 100 yen lucky bag sale is effective for selling points at a low cost, anticipating a cost of "0" yen. Don't forget to set an expiration date to increase turnover.

Claims

1. All-point payment with adjustable unit price and "change compensation" for discounts

2. Point vending machine "Point Vendor" to sell lucky bags
