These components can communicate using one or more communication buses or signal lines. Each component of the server 300 refers to a unit that processes at least one function or operation, and can be implemented as a software module, a hardware module, or a combination of software and hardware.

[0094] The configuration of the server 300 is not necessarily essential, and some configurations can be omitted as needed or other configurations can be added. That is, the configuration is for convenience of explanation, and embodiments are not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art will be able to modify and practice the embodiments of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention.

[0095] First, in S510, the user terminal 400 generates user information and transmits it to the server 300. The server 300 can store the user information of the user terminal 400 and perform a member registration (or member registration) process of the user terminal 400.

[0096] In S520, each of the plurality of planner terminals 500 can transmit planner information to the server 300 to perform a planner member registration (or planner member registration) process and apply for a planner. In S530, the server 300 reviews the planner application and approves it individually S530. The planner application can be completed together with the planner member registration or planner member registration process. The planner information received by the server 300 during the planner member registration process can include information corresponding to the contract signing history of the planner. After the completion of the planner member registration, the planner information can reflect the user review of each travel product contract signed through the auction-type interactive travel platform according to the embodiments of the present invention.

[0097] In S540, the user terminal 400 generates and transmits the travel product demand information to the server 300. Here, the travel product demand information can include information corresponding to at least one of a bid request period, a travel cost range, a travel schedule, a number of travelers, a travel region, and a desired travel mode. The server 300 can transmit the travel product demand information received from the user terminal 400 to each of the plurality of planner terminals 500.

[0098] Each of the planner terminals 500 checks the travel product demand information, generates and transmits the customized bid information to the server 300. Here, the customized bid information can include information corresponding to at least one of a confirmed travel cost, a travel schedule, a number of travelers, and a travel region.

[0099] In S560, the server 300 selects one or more pieces of the customized bid information received from each of the plurality of planner terminals 500 and generates a recommended bid list.

[0100] In an embodiment, the server 300 can generate the recommended bid list according to whether the confirmed travel cost of the plurality of customized bid information falls within the travel cost range of the travel product demand information of the user.

[0101] In an embodiment, when the server 300 first receives the first customized bid information from the first planner terminal 510 among the plurality of planner terminals 500, the validity of the first customized bid information is judged based on one or more pre-stored validation conditions. It can be validated that the first customized bid information is valid only when the bid is made by a bidder. In an embodiment, the validation condition of the server 300 can include confirming the validity only when the confirmed travel cost of the first customized bid information falls within the travel cost range of the travel product demand information of the user. In another embodiment, the validation condition of the server 300 can include confirming the validity only when the reception time of the first customized bid information falls within the bid request period of the travel product demand information of the user.

[0102] In an embodiment, when the server 300 receives the second customized bid information from the second planner terminal 520 among the plurality of planner terminals 500 at a second time after the first time, the validity of the one or more pre-stored second customized bid information is validated according to the validation condition, and the second customized bid information can be bid only when the bid is made by a valid bidder. At this time, the validation condition of the server 300 is that the difference between the first confirmed travel cost of the first customized bid information and the second confirmed travel cost of the second customized bid information is greater than a minimum bid unit amount pre-determined according to the following equation: This can include confirming the validity only when it is equal to or greater than.

[0103] The post-bidders can check the travel expenses confirmed by the pre-bidders and bid with slightly lower expenses. In this case, the pre-bidders will be awarded the bid unless they bid again with slightly lower expenses than the travel expenses confirmed by the pre-bidders. The later bidders, as a result, fall behind in the ranking. Therefore, if the difference between the first confirmed travel expenses and the second confirmed travel expenses is less than the minimum bid unit amount, the server 300 rejects the validity of the second customized bid information bid by the post-bidders, and the second planner terminal 520 can request to modify the second customized bid information.

[0104] In an embodiment, the server 300 can determine the minimum bid unit amount according to the bid request period of the user's travel product demand information and the travel expense range.

[0105] In an embodiment, the server 300 can determine the minimum bid unit amount to be proportional to the average of the maximum value of the travel expense range and the minimum value of the travel expense range in the user's travel product demand information. In an embodiment, the server 300 can determine the minimum bid unit amount to be inversely proportional to the size of the bid request period part in the user's travel product demand information.

[0106] [Equation 3]

[0107]

[0108] The server 300 can determine the minimum bid unit amount using [Equation 3]. In [Equation 3], S is the minimum bid unit amount, t is the size of the bid request period part, P Max is the maximum value of the travel cost range, P Min is the minimum value of the travel cost range, and c is the competition index.

[0109] Here, the server 300 can calculate the competition index based on the number of planner terminals that wish to bid for the user's travel product demand information. The server 300 can calculate the competition index corresponding to the user's travel product demand information in advance based on the planner information received from each of the plurality of planner terminals 500. The competition index can be proportional to the number of planner terminals that wish to bid for the user's travel product demand information. The competition index can have a value ranging from 0 to 0.5. Preferably, the competition index can have a value ranging from 0 to 0.15.

[0110] For example, assume that the user-submitted travel product demand information expects a minimum travel cost range of 3 million won, a maximum travel cost range of 5 million won, a bid request period of 7 days, and a competition index of 0.1. In this case, the minimum bid unit amount of the user's travel product condition information is about 31,746 won. The server 300 can verify the validity of the second confirmed travel cost based on the minimum bid unit amount calculated through [Equation 3].

[0111] In S570, the user selects one of the recommended bid lists using the user terminal 400 and provides the selected bid information to the server 300. In S580, the server 300 determines the winning information from the recommended bid list according to the user terminal 400's selection of the bid information and notifies the user terminal 400 and the planner terminal corresponding to the winning information of the winning information. The contract is sent.

[0112] In S590, the user confirms the winning information and the contract and transfers the specified deposit to the server 300 using the user terminal 400. Upon receipt of the deposit, the server 300 can confirm the sale contract of the customized bid information.

[0113] As mentioned above, the auction-type interactive travel platform system according to the embodiment of the present application performs a step-by-step verification of the customized bid information of the plurality of planners, and creates and delivers a recommended bid list only for the verified bid information. This can help to push customized travel products to users.
