Abstract

This invention provides a point system, a point awarding method, and a point awarding program that can increase the certainty of canceling point awards during the refund process. [Solution] The addition unit calculates points corresponding to the purchase price of the train ticket when the user purchases a train ticket and adds them to the points to be awarded to the user. The subtraction unit subtracts points corresponding to the refund amount from the points to be awarded to the user when a portion of the purchase price is refunded due to the cancellation of the train ticket. The awarding unit awards the points to the user on the point awarding date. The awarding unit awards points related to train tickets on a point awarding date that is after the end date of the validity period of the train ticket.
