[Figure 14] 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of information processed by the electronic receipt issuing device according to the embodiment. FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0012] <First embodiment> First, the overall picture and overview of the electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment will be described with reference to the functional block diagram of FIG.

[0013] The electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment includes an electronic receipt issuing device 10, a payment device 20, and a payment server 30.

[0014] The payment device 20 is a device for making payments, such as a vending machine, a ticket machine, an unmanned payment machine installed in a parking lot or bicycle parking lot, a payment device for a locker or an unmanned store, a POS device, or a payment device in a semi-self-service POS system in which a registration device for registering products and a payment device for making payments for registered products are installed separately. The payment device in this embodiment may be any device that includes an input function for electronically settling the price, such as a credit card, electronic money, or code payment.

[0015] The payment server 30 performs payment processing in response to a payment request from an external device. The payment server 30 is a server that executes processing to electronically settle the price. The payment server 30 may be, for example, a server that provides a credit card payment service, a server that provides an electronic money payment service, or a server that provides a code payment service.

[0016] The electronic receipt issuing device 10 provides an electronic receipt issuing service that issues an electronic receipt based on payment information received from an external device and stores the issued electronic receipt in association with user identification information. That is, when the user identification information of the service and information on the product purchased at a store or the like are input to the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 generates an electronic receipt based on the information on the product purchased at the store or the like, and stores the electronic receipt in a storage unit of the device in association with the input user identification information. A user operates a specific terminal to log in to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 and display his / her own electronic receipt on the terminal. Note that, according to the electronic receipt issuing system of the present embodiment, even if the user does not bring the user identification information of the service when shopping at a store or the like, the user can issue an electronic receipt using the user identification information of the payment service. Hereinafter, the user identification information of the electronic receipt issuing service will be referred to as "electronic receipt service user identification information".

[0017] The processing flow of the electronic receipt issuing system is as follows.

[0018] (1) Payment content specification information that specifies the payment content is input to the payment device 20 via an input device provided in the payment device 20. In addition, payment service related information, which is information used to make a payment using a specified payment service, is input to the payment device 20 via an input device provided in the payment device 20.

[0019] Examples of the input device include, but are not limited to, a physical button, a touch panel, a reader (such as a magnetic card reader, an NFC (near field communication) reader, a code reader, etc.), a microphone, a camera, etc.

[0020] The payment content specification information is, for example, information that identifies a product, service, ticket, etc. to be purchased that is specified by the input device. In addition, the payment content specification information may be information that identifies a parking area, bicycle parking area, locker, etc. to be used or that has been used.

[0021] Examples of payment service related information include information for making payments with a credit card (credit card number, cardholder name, expiration date, security code, etc.), information for making payments with electronic money (user identification information for the electronic money payment service, etc.), and information for making code payments (user identification information for the code payment service, etc.).

[0022] (2) The payment device 20 calculates the payment amount based on the payment content specification information input in (1). Then, the payment device 20 transmits a payment request including the calculated payment amount and the payment service related information input in (1) to a specified payment server 30. Based on the payment service related information input in (1), the payment device 20 identifies a payment server 30 corresponding to the payment service using the payment service related information, and transmits a payment request to the identified payment server 30.

[0023] (3) The payment server 30 performs payment processing for the payment amount in response to the payment request.

[0024] (4) The payment server 30 transmits the payment result to the payment device 20.

[0025] (5) If the payment result is successful, the payment device 20 sends at least a part of the payment service related information and payment information indicating the payment details to the electronic receipt issuing device 10.

[0026] At least a portion of the payment service related information includes payment user identification information, which is information for identifying a user of the payment service. Examples of payment user identification information include, but are not limited to, a credit card number, user identification information for an electronic money payment service, and user identification information for a code payment service. In the drawings, "user identification information" is expressed as "user ID (identifier)".

[0027] The payment information may include information identifying the payment details (e.g., name of the purchased product, name of the purchased service, name of the service used or to be used, details of the purchased ticket), the payment amount, the date and time of payment, the payment method, information identifying the payment device 20 that made the payment, etc.

[0028] Furthermore, if the payment result is successful, the payment device 20 dispenses the product or ticket, unlocks the parking area or bicycle parking area, opens the parking gate, locks the lockers, or unlocks the lockers.

[0029] If the payment result is unsuccessful, the payment device 20 notifies the customer that the payment has failed. For example, the payment device 20 outputs information indicating that the payment has failed via an output device such as a display or a speaker.

[0030] (6) The electronic receipt issuing device 10 has a storage unit, and stores the electronic receipt service user identification information and the payment user identification information in association with each other. The electronic receipt issuing device 10 then performs a verification process to check whether the payment user identification information received in (5) is registered.

[0031] (7) If the payment user identification information received in (5) is registered, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information received in (5). Then, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 stores the issued electronic receipt in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information linked to the payment user identification information received in (5), or transmits the issued electronic receipt to a notification destination registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information.

[0032] Next, the configuration of the devices included in the electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment will be described in detail. First, an example of the hardware configuration of the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 will be described. Each functional unit included in the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 of this embodiment is realized by any combination of hardware and software, centered on the CPU (Central Processing Unit) of any computer, memory, programs loaded into the memory, a storage unit such as a hard disk that stores the programs (in addition to programs stored beforehand at the stage of shipping the device, programs downloaded from storage media such as CDs (Compact Discs) or servers on the Internet can also be stored), and a network connection interface. Those skilled in the art will understand that there are various variations in the realization methods and devices.

[0033] FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the hardware configuration of each of the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 of this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, each of the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 has a processor 1A, a memory 2A, an input / output interface 3A, a peripheral circuit 4A, and a bus 5A. The peripheral circuit 4A includes various modules. The electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, or the payment server 30 does not necessarily have to have the peripheral circuit 4A. Note that the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 may be configured as multiple devices that are physically and / or logically separated. In this case, each of the multiple devices can have the above hardware configuration.

[0034] The bus 5A is a data transmission path for the processor 1A, memory 2A, peripheral circuit 4A, and input / output interface 3A to transmit and receive data to each other. The processor 1A is an arithmetic processing device such as a CPU or a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit). The memory 2A is a memory such as a RAM (Random Access Memory) or a ROM (Read Only Memory). The input / output interface 3A includes an interface for acquiring information from an input device, an external device, an external server, an external sensor, a camera, etc., and an interface for outputting information to an output device, an external device, an external server, etc. Examples of the input device include a keyboard, a mouse, a microphone, etc. Examples of the output device include a display, a speaker, a printer, a mailer, etc. The processor 1A can issue commands to each module and perform calculations based on the results of those calculations.

[0035] Next, a description will be given of an example of the functional configuration of the electronic receipt issuing device 10. As shown in the functional block diagram of FIG.

[0036] The acquisition unit 11 acquires the payment user identification information input to the payment device 20 and payment information indicating the content of the payment at the payment device 20 from an external device such as the payment device 20. Details of the payment user identification information and the payment information are as described above.

[0037] The determination unit 12 determines whether the payment user identification information acquired by the acquisition unit 11 is registered in first user registration information in which payment user identification information is registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information. The first user registration information is stored in a storage unit possessed by the electronic receipt issuing device 10. An example of the first user registration information is shown in FIG.

[0038] Here, an example of the flow of processing until the first user registration information is registered in the electronic receipt issuing device 10 will be described.

[0039] As an example, a user who wishes to use an electronic receipt issuing service performs new registration to start using the electronic receipt issuing service via a specific website or application. For example, the user inputs necessary information such as the user's name, age, nickname, etc., and inputs a request for new registration. When the electronic receipt issuing device 10 receives the request for new registration, it generates new electronic receipt service identification information, associates it with the input information, etc., and stores it in the storage unit of the device.

[0040] During the new registration, the user may perform an operation to register the payment service related information including the payment user identification information (credit card number, user identification information for the electronic money payment service, user identification information for the code payment service, etc.) and his / her own biometric information (such as a facial photograph). In addition, after the new registration, the user may perform an operation to register the payment service related information and his / her own biometric information on a user setting screen or the like. When the electronic receipt issuing device 10 acquires the payment service related information and biometric information input by the operation, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 associates the information with the electronic receipt service identification information of the user and stores the information in a storage unit of the device. During the new registration or after the new registration, the user may register a notification destination (e.g., an email address, an SNS (social networking service) account) for receiving various notifications from the electronic receipt issuing device 10 via the user setting screen. When the electronic receipt issuing device 10 acquires the input notification destination, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 associates the information with the electronic receipt service identification information of the user and stores the information in a storage unit of the device.

[0041] As another example, when both the electronic receipt service identification information and the payment service related information including the payment user identification information are input to the payment device 20 at the time of payment, the payment device 20 may transmit the input electronic receipt service identification information and the payment service related information to the electronic receipt issuing device 10. Then, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 may store the received payment service related information in a storage unit of the device in association with the received electronic receipt service identification information. For example, there are cases where the electronic receipt service identification information is input to the payment device 20 to issue an electronic receipt, and the payment service related information is input to the payment device 20 to make a payment using a predetermined payment service.

[0042] When both the electronic receipt service identification information and the payment service related information are input to the payment device 20 at the time of payment, the payment device 20 may display information on a display inquiring whether or not to register the input payment service related information in the electronic receipt issuing device 10. The payment device 20 may then accept a user input indicating a response to the inquiry via any input device such as a touch panel display, a physical button, or a microphone. If the response to the inquiry indicates "registering," the payment device 20 may transmit the input electronic receipt service identification information and the payment service related information to the electronic receipt issuing device 10. The electronic receipt issuing device 10 may then store the received payment service related information in a storage unit of the device, in association with the received electronic receipt service identification information.

[0043] When the payment user identification information acquired by the acquisition unit 11 is registered in the first user registration information, the issuing unit 13 issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information acquired by the acquisition unit 11. The electronic receipt can include information identifying the payment details (e.g., purchased product name, purchased service name, service name used or to be used, purchased ticket details), payment amount, payment date and time, payment method, information identifying the payment device 20 that made the payment, etc. The information identifying the payment device 20 may be a name that identifies the installation location or type of the payment device 20, such as "vending machine in XX building" or "XX store XX park front store."

[0044] The issuing unit 13 can store the issued electronic receipt in a storage unit of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 by linking the issued electronic receipt to the electronic receipt service user identification information that is linked to the payment user identification information acquired by the acquiring unit 11. The issuing unit 13 can also send the issued electronic receipt to a notification destination (e.g., email address, SNS account) that is registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information.

[0045] Next, an example of the process flow of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

[0046] First, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 acquires the payment user identification information input to the payment device 20 for payment, and payment information indicating the details of the payment made at the payment device 20 (S10).

[0047] Next, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 determines whether the payment user identification information acquired in S10 is registered in the first user registration information in which the payment user identification information is registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information (S11).

[0048] If registered (Yes in S12), the electronic receipt issuing device 10 issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information acquired in S10, links it to the electronic receipt service user identification information linked to the payment user identification information acquired in S10, stores it in a memory unit of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 (S13), and then terminates the process.

[0049] On the other hand, if the user is not registered (No in S12), the electronic receipt issuing device 10 ends the process without issuing an electronic receipt.

[0050] According to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment described above, a customer can have an electronic receipt indicating the details of payment made at the payment device 20 issued even if the customer does not bring electronic receipt service user identification information with him / her when making a payment at the payment device 20.

[0051] Furthermore, according to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of this embodiment, the payment service related information can be used to identify the electronic receipt service user identification information of the customer. Since the payment service related information is essential for payment at the payment device 20, it is unlikely that the customer will forget to bring the payment service related information when making a payment at the payment device 20. Therefore, according to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of this embodiment, it is possible to prevent the customer from forgetting to bring certain information when making a payment at the payment device 20 and therefore being unable to issue an electronic receipt.

[0052] Here, a modified example will be described. In the example described with reference to Fig. 1, in the process (2), the payment device 20 sent a payment request to the payment server 30, but in the case of code payment, the customer's communication terminal (e.g., smartphone, tablet terminal, mobile phone) may send the payment request to the payment server 30. In this case, the customer's communication terminal reads the code output by the payment device 20, and the customer's communication terminal acquires information specifying the payment details, the payment amount, information identifying the payment device 20, and the like. The customer's communication terminal then transmits a payment request including the acquired information to the payment server 30.

[0053] In this modified example, the payment server 30 can transmit the payment result to both the payment device 20 and the customer's communication terminal in the process of (4). Then, the process of (5) of transmitting the payment information and the payment user identification information to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 may be performed by the payment device 20 or the customer's communication terminal.

[0054] As another variation, the payment server 30 may execute the process (5) in which the payment information and the payment user identification information are transmitted to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 instead of the payment device 20. In this case, the payment server 30 can obtain the payment information from the payment device 20 or the customer's communication terminal.

[0055] As another variation, for example, in a payment device 20 that processes payments for products or services that have age restrictions, such as tobacco or alcohol, information for age verification (e.g., member identification information given to customers who meet the age requirements) is input to the payment device 20. The payment device 20 may transmit the payment information and the member identification information to the electronic receipt issuing device 10.

[0056] In this modified example, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 associates the electronic receipt service user identification information with the above member identification information and stores them. Then, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 can identify the electronic receipt service user identification information of the customer who made a payment with the payment device 20 by comparing the stored information with the above member information received from the payment device 20.

[0057] Another modified example will be described. In the example described with reference to Fig. 1, the payment device 20 calculates the payment amount based on the payment content specifying information. As a modified example, the payment server 30 may calculate the payment amount. In this case, the payment device 20 transmits the payment content specifying information to the payment server 30. Then, the payment server 30 calculates the payment amount based on the received payment content specifying information.

[0058] <Second embodiment> First, the overall picture and overview of the electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment will be described with reference to the functional block diagram of FIG.

[0059] The electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment includes an electronic receipt issuing device 10, a payment device 20, and a biometric authentication server 40.

[0060] The payment device 20 is a device for making payments, such as a vending machine, a ticket machine, an unmanned payment machine installed in a parking lot or bicycle parking lot, a payment device for a locker or an unmanned store, a POS device, or a payment device in a semi-self-service POS system in which a registration device for registering products and a payment device for making payments for registered products are installed separately. The payment device in this embodiment may be any device that includes an input function for electronically settling the price, such as a credit card, electronic money, or code payment.

[0061] The biometric authentication server 40 has a storage unit and stores second user registration information that links the electronic receipt service user identification information with the biometric information of each user. Examples of the biometric information include, but are not limited to, fingerprints, irises, face images, voiceprints, and their features. The biometric authentication server 40 then performs biometric authentication based on the biometric information and authentication request received from an external device, and returns the results of the biometric authentication.

[0062] The electronic receipt issuing device 10 provides an electronic receipt issuing service that issues an electronic receipt based on payment information received from an external device and stores the issued electronic receipt in association with user identification information of the electronic receipt service. That is, when the user identification information of the service and information on the product purchased at a store or the like are input to the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 generates an electronic receipt based on the information on the product purchased at the store or the like, and stores the electronic receipt in association with the input user identification information in a storage unit of the device. A user operates a specific terminal to log in to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 and display his / her own electronic receipt on the terminal. Note that, according to the electronic receipt issuing system of the present embodiment, even if the user does not bring the user identification information of the service when shopping at a store or the like, the user can issue an electronic receipt using biometric information.

[0063] The processing flow of the electronic receipt issuing system is as follows.

[0064] (1) Payment content specifying information that specifies the payment content is input to the payment device 20 via an input device provided in the payment device 20. This process is as described in the first embodiment.

[0065] Furthermore, cash, payment service related information, and the like are input to the payment device 20 via an input device provided in the payment device 20. The payment service related information is as described in the first embodiment.

[0066] Furthermore, the biometric information is input to the payment device 20 via an input device included in the payment device 20. The input device may be one of the above-mentioned examples, or may be another device that realizes input of biometric information, such as a fingerprint sensor.

[0067] (2) The payment device 20 calculates the payment amount based on the payment content specification information input in (1). Then, the payment device 20 makes a payment for the calculated payment amount based on the calculated payment amount and the cash and payment service related information input in (1). Then, the payment device 20 delivers goods or tickets, unlocks the parking area or bicycle parking area, opens the parking gate, locks the lockers, and unlocks the lockers.

[0068] (3) The settlement apparatus 20 transmits the biometric information input in (1) and an authentication request to the biometric authentication server 40.

[0069] (4) The biometric authentication server 40 performs biometric authentication by matching the biometric information acquired in (3) with the second user registration information.

[0070] (5) The biometric authentication server 40 returns the result of the biometric authentication (matching result) to the payment device 20. The result of the biometric authentication is either successful or unsuccessful. If the authentication is successful, the result of the biometric authentication sent from the biometric authentication server 40 to the payment device 20 includes the electronic receipt service user identification information linked to the biometric information acquired in (3).

[0071] The process order from (1) to (5) described here is merely an example, and is not limited to this.

[0072] (6) When the payment device 20 completes the payment in (2) and receives the biometric authentication result indicating successful authentication in (5), it sends the electronic receipt service user identification information included in the biometric authentication result and payment information indicating the payment details to the electronic receipt issuing device 10. The payment information is as described in the first embodiment.

[0073] (7) The electronic receipt issuing device 10 issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information received in (6). Then, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 stores the issued electronic receipt in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information received in (6), or transmits the issued electronic receipt to a notification destination registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information.

[0074] If the result of the biometric authentication transmitted and received in (5) is unsuccessful, the settlement device 20 does not execute the process in (6), and the electronic receipt issuing device 10 does not execute the process in (7).

[0075] Next, the configuration of the devices included in the electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment will be described in detail. An example of the hardware configuration of each of the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 is the same as that of the first embodiment.

[0076] Next, a description will be given of an example of the functional configuration of the electronic receipt issuing device 10. As shown in the functional block diagram of FIG.

[0077] The acquiring unit 14 acquires electronic receipt service user identification information identified by biometric authentication using the biometric information input to the payment device 20, and payment information indicating the details of the payment at the payment device 20. As described above, the biometric authentication server 40 receives the biometric information input to the payment device 20, performs biometric authentication, and transmits the result of the biometric authentication to the payment device 20. If the result of the biometric authentication is successful, the payment device 20 transmits the electronic receipt service user identification information and the payment information included in the result of the biometric authentication to the electronic receipt issuing device 10. If the result of the biometric authentication is unsuccessful, the payment device 20 does not need to transmit the payment information to the electronic receipt issuing device 10. The payment information is as described in the first embodiment.

[0078] If the result of the biometric authentication using the biometric information input to the payment device 20 is successful, that is, if the acquisition unit 14 acquires electronic receipt service user identification information, the issuing unit 15 issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information acquired by the acquisition unit 14. The electronic receipt can include information identifying the payment details (e.g., the name of the purchased product, the name of the purchased service, the name of the service used or to be used, the details of the purchased ticket), the payment amount, the date and time of payment, the payment method, information identifying the payment device 20 that made the payment, etc.

[0079] The issuing unit 15 can associate the issued electronic receipt with the electronic receipt service user identification information acquired by the acquiring unit 14, and store the electronic receipt in a storage unit of the electronic receipt issuing device 10. The issuing unit 15 can also send the issued electronic receipt to a notification destination (e.g., email address, SNS account) registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information.

[0080] Next, an example of the process flow of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

[0081] First, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 acquires electronic receipt service user identification information identified by biometric authentication using the biometric information input to the payment device 20, and payment information indicating the payment details at the payment device 20 (S20). Next, when the electronic receipt issuing device 10 acquires the electronic receipt service user identification information in S20, it issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information acquired in S20, associates it with the electronic receipt service user identification information acquired in S20, stores it in a storage unit of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 (S21), and then ends the process.

[0082] According to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment described above, a customer can have an electronic receipt indicating the details of payment made at the payment device 20 issued even if the customer does not bring electronic receipt service user identification information with him / her when making a payment at the payment device 20.

[0083] Furthermore, according to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment, the electronic receipt service user identification information of the customer can be identified by using the biometric information of the customer. Therefore, according to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of a problem in which an electronic receipt cannot be issued because a certain piece of information was forgotten to be brought when making a payment at the payment device 20.

[0084] Here, a modified example will be described. In this embodiment, the payment device 20 generates payment information, the biometric authentication server 40 identifies electronic receipt service user identification information by biometric authentication, and the payment information and electronic receipt service user identification information are input to the electronic receipt issuing device 10, but the route is various and is not limited to the example described using FIG. 5.

[0085] For example, the payment device 20 may transmit the biometric information and the payment information to the biometric authentication server 40. Then, if the biometric authentication is successful, the biometric authentication server 40 may transmit the electronic receipt service user identification information identified by the biometric authentication and the payment information to the electronic receipt issuing device 10. Note that, if the biometric authentication is unsuccessful, the biometric authentication server 40 does not need to transmit the payment information to the electronic receipt issuing device 10.

[0086] As another example, the payment device 20 may send payment information to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 with a predetermined processing identification information attached, and may also send biometric information to the biometric authentication server 40 with the same processing identification information attached. Then, the biometric authentication server 40 may send the result of the biometric authentication to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 with the same processing identification information attached.

[0087] <Third embodiment> First, the overall picture and overview of the electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment will be described with reference to the functional block diagram of FIG.

[0088] The electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment includes an electronic receipt issuing device 10 and a payment device 20.

[0089] The payment device 20 is a device for making payments, such as a vending machine, a ticket machine, an unmanned payment machine installed in a parking lot or bicycle parking lot, a payment device for a locker or an unmanned store, a POS device, or a payment device in a semi-self-service POS system in which a registration device for registering products and a payment device for making payments for registered products are installed separately. The payment device in this embodiment may be any device that includes an input function for electronically settling the price, such as a credit card, electronic money, or code payment.

[0090] The electronic receipt issuing device 10 provides an electronic receipt issuing service that issues an electronic receipt based on payment information received from an external device and stores the issued electronic receipt in association with user identification information of the electronic receipt service. That is, when the user identification information of the service and information on the product purchased at a store or the like are input to the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 generates an electronic receipt based on the information on the product purchased at the store or the like, and stores the electronic receipt in association with the input user identification information in a storage unit of the device. A user operates a specific terminal to log in to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 and display his / her own electronic receipt on the terminal. Note that, according to the electronic receipt issuing system of the present embodiment, even if the user does not bring the user identification information of the service when shopping at a store or the like, the user can issue an electronic receipt using biometric information.

[0091] The electronic receipt issuing device 10 also has a storage unit and stores second user registration information that links electronic receipt service user identification information with biometric information of each user. Examples of biometric information include, but are not limited to, fingerprints, irises, face images, voiceprints, and their features. The electronic receipt issuing device 10 then performs biometric authentication based on the biometric information received from an external device.

[0092] The processing flow of the electronic receipt issuing system is as follows.

[0093] (1) Payment content specifying information that specifies the payment content is input to the payment device 20 via an input device provided in the payment device 20. This process is as described in the first embodiment.

[0094] Furthermore, cash, payment service related information, and the like are input to the payment device 20 via an input device provided in the payment device 20. The payment service related information is as described in the first embodiment.

[0095] Furthermore, the biometric information is input to the payment device 20 via an input device included in the payment device 20. The input device may be one of the above-mentioned examples, or may be another device that realizes input of biometric information, such as a fingerprint sensor.

[0096] (2) The payment device 20 calculates the payment amount based on the payment content specification information input in (1). Then, the payment device 20 makes a payment for the calculated payment amount based on the calculated payment amount and the cash and payment service related information input in (1). Then, the payment device 20 delivers goods or tickets, unlocks the parking area or bicycle parking area, opens the parking gate, locks the lockers, and unlocks the lockers.

[0097] (3) When the payment in (2) is completed, the payment device 20 transmits the biometric information input in (1) and payment information indicating the payment details to the electronic receipt issuing device 10. The payment information is as described in the first embodiment.

[0098] (4) The electronic receipt issuing device 10 performs biometric authentication by matching the biometric information acquired in (3) with the second user registration information.

[0099] (5) If the result of the biometric authentication in (4) is successful, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information received in (3). Then, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 stores the issued electronic receipt linked to the electronic receipt service user identification information identified by the biometric authentication in (4) or transmits the issued electronic receipt to a notification destination registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information.

[0100] If the result of the biometric authentication in (4) is unsuccessful, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 does not execute the process in (5).

[0101] Next, the configuration of the devices included in the electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment will be described in detail. An example of the hardware configuration of each of the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 is the same as in the first and second embodiments.

[0102] Next, a description will be given of an example of the functional configuration of the electronic receipt issuing device 10. As shown in the functional block diagram of FIG.

[0103] The acquisition unit 14 acquires the biometric information input to the payment device 20 and the payment information indicating the content of the payment at the payment device 20. The payment information is as described in the first embodiment.

[0104] The matching unit 16 performs biometric authentication by matching the biometric information acquired by the acquisition unit 14 with the second user registration information. The second user registration information is information that links the electronic receipt service user identification information with the biometric information of each user. If the biometric authentication is successful, the matching unit 16 identifies the electronic receipt service user identification information that is registered in association with the biometric information acquired by the acquisition unit 14.

[0105] When the result of the biometric authentication using the biometric information input to the payment device 20 is successful, the issuing unit 15 issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information acquired by the acquiring unit 14. The electronic receipt can include information identifying the payment details (e.g., the name of the purchased product, the name of the purchased service, the name of the service used or to be used, the details of the purchased ticket), the payment amount, the date and time of payment, the payment method, information identifying the payment device 20 that made the payment, and the like.

[0106] The issuing unit 15 associates the issued electronic receipt with the electronic receipt service user identification information identified by the biometric authentication by the matching unit 16, and stores the electronic receipt in a storage unit of the electronic receipt issuing device 10. The issuing unit 15 can also send the issued electronic receipt to a notification destination (e.g., email address, SNS account) registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information.

[0107] If the result of the biometric authentication using the biometric information input to the payment device 20 is a failure, the issuing unit 15 does not issue an electronic receipt.

[0108] Next, an example of the process flow of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

[0109] First, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 acquires the biometric information input to the payment device 20 and payment information indicating the payment details at the payment device 20 (S30). Next, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 executes biometric authentication to compare the biometric information acquired in S30 with the second user registration information (S31). The second user registration information is information that links electronic receipt service user identification information with the biometric information of each user. If the biometric authentication is successful, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 identifies the electronic receipt service user identification information that is registered in association with the biometric information acquired in S30.

[0110] If the biometric authentication in S31 is successful (Yes in S32), the electronic receipt issuing device 10 issues an electronic receipt based on the payment information acquired in S30, links it to the electronic receipt service user identification information identified by the biometric authentication in S31, stores it in a memory unit of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 (S33), and then terminates the process.

[0111] On the other hand, if the biometric authentication in S31 is unsuccessful (No in S32), the electronic receipt issuing device 10 ends the process without issuing an electronic receipt.

[0112] According to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment described above, it is possible to achieve the same effects as those of the second embodiment.

[0113] <Fourth embodiment> The electronic receipt issuing device 10 of this embodiment differs from the first to third embodiments in that, when an electronic receipt has been issued, it has a means for notifying the customer in a distinctive manner. This will be described in detail below.

[0114] The overall picture and overview of the electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment is similar to any of the first to third embodiments.

[0115] An example of the hardware configuration of each of the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 of this embodiment is similar to that of the first to third embodiments.

[0116] An example of a functional block diagram of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 is shown in any one of FIGS.

[0117] The functional block diagram of FIG. 11 is obtained by adding a production notification unit 17 to the functional block diagram (FIG. 3) of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 described in the first embodiment.

[0118] The functional block diagram of FIG. 12 is obtained by adding a production notification unit 17 to the functional block diagram (FIG. 6) of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 described in the second embodiment.

[0119] The functional block diagram of FIG. 13 is obtained by adding a production notification unit 17 to the functional block diagram (FIG. 9) of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 described in the third embodiment.

[0120] The configurations of the acquisition unit 11, the determination unit 12, the issuing unit 13, the acquisition unit 14, the issuing unit 15 and the matching unit 16 are as described in the first to third embodiments.

[0121] The issuance notification unit 17 notifies the customer that an electronic receipt has been issued. When the issuing unit 13 or the issuing unit 15 issues an electronic receipt, the issuance notification unit 17 has a first issuance notification means that transmits information indicating that an electronic receipt has been issued to the payment device 20 and causes the payment device 20 to output information indicating that an electronic receipt has been issued. The payment device 20 can output information such as "An electronic receipt has been issued and saved" via an output device such as a display or a speaker.

[0122] Furthermore, the first issuance / notification means may transmit the issued electronic receipt to the payment device 20 and cause the payment device 20 to output the issued electronic receipt. The payment device 20 can output the received electronic receipt via an output device such as a display.

[0123] The issuance notification unit 17 may have a second issuance notification means in addition to the first issuance notification means or instead of the first issuance notification means. When the issuing unit 13 or the issuing unit 15 issues an electronic receipt, the second issuance notification means transmits information indicating that the electronic receipt has been issued to a notification destination (e.g., email address, SNS account) that is registered in association with the electronic receipt service user identification information. The second issuance notification means may transmit the issued electronic receipt to the notification destination.

[0124] According to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment described above, it is possible to achieve the same operational effects as those of the first to third embodiments. Furthermore, according to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment, it is possible to notify the customer of the issuance of an electronic receipt and the contents of the issued electronic receipt via the payment device 20. Therefore, immediately after making a payment with the payment device 20, it is possible to notify the customer of the issuance of an electronic receipt and its contents.

[0125] Furthermore, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment can notify the customer of the issuance of an electronic receipt and the contents of the issued electronic receipt by using the notification destination registered by each customer. In this way, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment is user-friendly since it can notify the customer in the way that the customer desires.

[0126] <Fifth embodiment> The electronic receipt issuing device 10 of this embodiment differs from the first to fourth embodiments in that it has a means for collecting payment information that satisfies a predetermined condition and issuing one electronic receipt. This will be described in detail below.

[0127] The overall picture and overview of the electronic receipt issuing system of this embodiment is similar to any of the first to fourth embodiments.

[0128] An example of the hardware configuration of each of the electronic receipt issuing device 10, the payment device 20, and the payment server 30 of this embodiment is similar to that of the first to fourth embodiments.

[0129] An example of a functional block diagram of the electronic receipt issuing device 10 is shown in any one of Figures 3, 6, 9, and 11 to 13. The configurations of the acquisition unit 11, the judgment unit 12, the acquisition unit 14, the comparison unit 16, and the issue notification unit 17 are as described in the first to fourth embodiments.

[0130] The payment information in this embodiment includes at least one of information for identifying the payment device 20 and the date and time of payment.

[0131] Then, when the first payment information and the second payment information acquired by the acquisition unit 11 (or acquisition unit 14) satisfy a predetermined condition, the issuing unit 13 (or the issuing unit 15) issues one electronic receipt including the payment details indicated by the first payment information and the payment details indicated by the second payment information.

[0132] The specified condition may be, for example, an AND condition connecting the following: "The payment information is related to the same electronic receipt service user identification information," "The information identifying the payment device 20 contained in the first payment information is identical to the information identifying the payment device 20 contained in the second payment information," and "The difference between the payment date and time contained in the first payment information and the payment date and time contained in the second payment information is within a specified time period."

[0133] According to this condition, if the same customer makes successive payments for multiple products (or services) using the same payment device (e.g., a vending machine, etc.) 20, each product being paid for separately, and the time difference between those payments is within a specified time, a single electronic receipt combining those payments will be issued.

[0134] Other specified conditions may be, for example, an AND condition connecting the following: "the payment information is related to the same electronic receipt service user identification information," "the information identifying the payment device 20 included in the first payment information and the information identifying the payment device 20 included in the second payment information belong to the same group," and "the difference between the payment date and time included in the first payment information and the payment date and time included in the second payment information is within a specified time."

[0135] 14, group information indicating the group to which each payment device 20 belongs is generated and stored in a storage unit of the electronic receipt issuing device 10. Then, the issuing unit 13 (or the issuing unit 15) can determine whether "the information identifying the payment device 20 included in the first payment information and the information identifying the payment device 20 included in the second payment information belong to the same group" based on the group information. For example, payment devices (e.g., vending machines) 20 installed close to each other may be grouped to belong to the same group.

[0136] According to this condition, if the same customer makes successive payments for goods (or services) at payment devices (e.g., vending machines) 20 located close to each other and the time difference between those payments is within a specified time, a single electronic receipt combining those payments will be issued.

[0137] According to the electronic receipt issuing device 10 of the present embodiment described above, it is possible to achieve the same operational effects as those of the first to fourth embodiments.

[0138] Also, depending on the configuration of the payment device 20, such as in a vending machine, it may not be possible to make payments for multiple products (or services) at once, and payments must be made separately. In this case, if an electronic receipt is issued for each payment, the number of electronic receipts issued increases, making management difficult. The electronic receipt issuing device 10 of this embodiment can alleviate this inconvenience.

[0139] Here, a modified example applicable to all the embodiments will be described. The above-mentioned "storage unit provided in the electronic receipt issuing device 10 and storing various information" may be provided in an external device that is physically and / or logically separated from the electronic receipt issuing device 10. In this case, the electronic receipt issuing device 10 and the external device are configured to be able to communicate with each other. The electronic receipt issuing device 10 is also configured to be able to access the information stored in the storage unit.

[0140] Furthermore, the above-mentioned "storage unit provided in the biometric authentication server 40 and storing various information" may be provided in an external device that is physically and / or logically separated from the biometric authentication server 40. In this case, the biometric authentication server 40 and the external device are configured to be able to communicate with each other. The biometric authentication server 40 is configured to be able to access the information stored in the storage unit. The above-mentioned advantageous effects are also achieved in these modified examples.
