[0056] [Processing flow by information processing system] An example of the processing flow of the information processing system 1 of this embodiment will be described below with reference to FIGS.

[0057] (S101) When a user registered with the affiliated business system 3 operates the user terminal 2 to execute the affiliated business app 22 associated with the affiliated business system 3, the user first logs in to the affiliated business system 3 using the login ID and password registered with the affiliated business system 3. Figure 4(a) shows the state in which the affiliated business app 22 causes the user terminal 2 logged in to the affiliated business system 3 to function as a financial institution function usage acceptance unit, and the display screen control unit 24 displays a screen accepting a request to use the financial institution function. The information processing system 1 in this processing flow is typically an app for a consumer electronics retailer or department store, for example. Shopping history information and points associated with shopping are linked to and managed by the user. By logging in using their login ID and password, the user can properly access this information and use the points to make purchases and receive various services. It is important to note here that the user has passed the authentication required by the affiliated business to access the affiliated business system 3. In other words, the user has undergone personal authentication at a level that meets the standards set by the affiliated business. The affiliated business system 3 displays various links and content for using these services, but as they are unrelated to the present invention, they are not shown in the figure. Similarly, displays unrelated to the present invention will be omitted below. When the user selects a usage request acceptance screen displayed on the screen, a usage request signal is sent from the user terminal 2 to the financial institution system 4. Note that the figure shows an example of a display with "XX XX BANK" that directly links to banking functions, but the options for payment methods may also be listed, for example, "Payment Method 1. Points 2. Transfer 3. Card Payment 4. Transportation IC Card." In this case, when "2. Transfer" is selected, a usage request signal is sent.

[0058] (S102) When the financial institution system 4 receives a usage request signal from the user terminal 2 through user operation on the financial institution function usage request acceptance screen shown in Figure 4(a), the login status management unit 32 of the affiliated business system 3 accepts the request to use the financial institution function through user operation and performs a process of confirming the first login status or the second login status, which is set according to the status of opening a financial institution account for the affiliated business user ID related to the user, by referring to the affiliated business information 33a stored in the memory unit 33. The first login status indicates that the financial institution account opening procedure information 45b has been linked between the financial institution system 4 and the affiliated business system 3. The second login status indicates that the financial institution account opening procedure information 45b between the financial institution system 4 and the affiliated business system 3 has not yet been linked.

[0059] (S103) If the first login status is set in the request to use the financial institution function, the authentication processing unit 43 performs a process to determine whether authentication information 23 is stored in the memory unit 21 of the user terminal 2, i.e., whether authentication settings have been completed.

[0060] (S104) When the authentication information 23 is stored in the storage unit 21 of the user terminal 2, the authentication processing unit 43 performs login authentication processing for the user terminal 2 to the financial institution system 4 using FIDO authentication. Completion of this login means that the user has undergone personal authentication at a level that meets the standards set by the financial institution. Information indicating completion of FIDO authentication registration is stored as authentication information 23 in the affiliated business app 22 of the user terminal 2 together with a predetermined identifier. The display screen control unit 24 of the user terminal 2 performs processing to transition the display screen of the user terminal 2 from the financial institution function usage request acceptance screen shown in FIG. 4(a) to a screen providing financial institution functions as shown in FIG. 4(b). Users can instantly process transfers and use financial products and services on the financial institution function screen.

[0061] (S105) When the second login status is set in the request to use the financial institution function, the affiliated business application 22 causes the user terminal 2 to function as a display screen control means, and the display screen control unit 24 performs processing to transition the display screen of the user terminal 2 from the screen for accepting a request to use the financial institution function shown in Fig. 4(a) to a screen for accepting an application to open a financial institution account as shown in Fig. 5. When the user selects "Open an account" on the screen, the display screen transitions to a financial institution account opening settings screen as shown in Fig. 6(a). If the authentication information 23 is not stored in the affiliated business app 22 due to a change in the user terminal 2, etc., when login is selected by user operation, FIDO authentication is performed using the login ID (or bank account number) related to the financial institution account, password, and fingerprint authentication, and when the login authentication is passed and the user accesses the financial institution system 4, authentication completion information is sent to the login status management unit 32, and the login status management unit 32 receives financial institution account information 45c from the financial institution system 4 via batch processing, and then rewrites the login status of the affiliated business user ID that constitutes the affiliated business user information 33a stored in the memory unit 33 from the second login status to the first login status and saves it. In FIG. 6(a), data such as name, address, date of birth, etc., which have been input in advance as user registration information, may be displayed in advance to assist with input. Based on the instructions on the financial institution account opening setting screen, the user inputs the financial institution account opening application information required to create an account to be registered in the financial institution system 4, such as the user's name, address, date of birth, telephone number, email address, and affiliated business user ID. The input financial institution account opening application information is encrypted and then sent to the financial institution system 4, where it is associated with the affiliated business user ID and stored in the storage unit 44 as financial institution account opening procedure information 45b. Based on the financial institution account opening application information entered on the financial institution account opening settings screen, the financial institution account opening procedure management unit 41 generates financial institution account opening application completion information such as a financial institution account opening application acceptance number linked to the affiliated business user ID, and stores the information as financial institution account opening procedure information 45b in the storage unit 44. The financial institution account opening procedure information 45b is immediately linked to the affiliated business system 3, and the display screen of the user terminal 2 displays the financial institution account opening application acceptance number linked to the affiliated business user ID related to the affiliated business user information 33a, as shown in Figure 6(b). In the affiliated business system 3, when financial institution account opening procedure information 45b is linked from the financial institution system 4, the login status management unit 32 performs a process to change the second login status setting set for the affiliated business user ID related to the request to use the above-mentioned financial institution function to the first login status. In addition, the financial institution account opening procedure management unit 41 performs an examination process for the financial institution account opening application related to the above-mentioned financial institution account opening application information. The examination process for account opening is carried out in various ways based on standards set by the financial institution. Considering user convenience, it is desirable to have an automated system that minimizes the intervention of bank employees, and can complete account opening as automatically as possible, within as little as three minutes, and at the latest within 15 minutes. Once the examination is complete, the financial institution account opening procedure management unit 41 performs a process to generate financial institution user information 45a and financial institution account information 45c. Once account opening is complete, the authentication processing unit 43 prompts the user to register data required for FIDO authentication. The data required for FIDO authentication varies depending on the financial institution, but one or more of fingerprint authentication, vein authentication, and facial recognition are required to be registered. In this embodiment, as a prerequisite for FIDO authentication, authentication using a transaction password, authentication via SMS, etc. is performed, and only if the authentication is successful does the system proceed to the FIDO authentication registration process. The financial institution account information 45c is linked to the affiliated business system 3 by batch processing. When personal authentication is confirmed by FIDO authentication, the user has been personally authenticated at a level that meets the standards set by the financial institution. In addition, information indicating the completion of FIDO authentication registration is stored as authentication information 23 in the storage unit 21 of the user terminal 2 together with a specific identifier. Next, the financial institution system 4 transitions the user terminal to the affiliated business application screen shown in Figure 4(a) again, and proceeds to S102 where the usage request for that screen is accepted. Since the user's login status has been switched to and saved as the first login status, the process proceeds to S103.

[0062] (S106) S106 is a preliminary step, so to speak. Because the login status is the first login status, it is not assumed that authentication settings have not yet been completed. However, in this embodiment, in which various input processes are performed on a web screen, there may be cases in which the login status has switched to the first login status but the link does not actually work due to a temporary interruption in communication or a missing information packet. To prepare for such cases, in S106, the authentication processing unit 43 performs processing to transition the display screen of the user terminal 2 from the financial institution function usage request reception screen or the financial institution system login reception screen to the login setting screen. As an example, a screen for accepting input of login setting information as shown in FIG. 7(b) is displayed from the screen for accepting a request to use a financial institution function as shown in FIG. 4(a). Alternatively, in S105 above, an authentication setting screen such as that shown in FIG. 7(b) is displayed from the login acceptance screen for the financial institution system 4 shown in 7(a). The authentication processing unit 43 performs authentication setting processing based on information input by a user operation on the authentication setting screen.

[0063] (S107) The authentication processing unit 43 accepts login information entered by user operation on the login acceptance screen for the financial institution system 4 shown in Figure 7(a) displayed on the display screen of the user terminal 2, and performs processing to transition the display screen of the user terminal 2 to the web screen for the financial institution function shown in Figure 4(b). In addition, the authentication processing unit 43 accepts specified setting information input by user operation on the login setting screen shown in Figure 7(b) displayed on the display screen of the user terminal 2, and performs processing to transition the display screen of the user terminal 2 to the web screen of the financial institution function shown in Figure 4(b). In this case, the authentication processing unit 43 performs the authentication setting process based on the information input by the user's operation on the login setting screen, and performs the authentication process using the information related to the authentication setting. Users can instantly process transfers and use financial products and services on the web screen of the financial institution functions mentioned above. Furthermore, the data linkage processing unit 31 of the affiliated business system 3 and the data linkage processing unit 42 of the financial institution system 4 cross-check customer IDs through batch processing once a day, as in the past. Many users hold IDs or open new IDs in either the affiliated business system 3 or the financial institution system 4, or both, but do not necessarily link and utilize them immediately. According to this embodiment, an environment is provided in which affiliated business user information 33a and financial institution account opening procedure information 45b at each step can be immediately linked and utilized for customers who need it, and IDs of customers who will not be utilized that day are linked together in a batch process, thereby avoiding excessive load on the system and the effort required for customer input for linking, and providing a more comfortable environment.

[0064] In this way, the information processing system of this embodiment employs a mechanism for determining whether financial institution account opening procedure information is linked to the financial institution's system when using the functions of a financial institution affiliated with the operator on an app related to various services of the operator installed on the user terminal 2, and a mechanism for instantly linking at least the financial institution account opening application completion information, among the financial institution account opening procedure information, to the operator's system.Therefore, it is possible to use the financial institution's functions and receive the operator's services without waiting for the financial institution account opening completion information to be batch processed into the operator's system.

[0065] Furthermore, starting from the partner business app installed on the user terminal 2 shown in Figure 4(a), the user receives normal services while continuously transitioning from the financial institution function usage acceptance section displayed on the partner business app to the financial institution's web screen. This allows the user to open an account using various information, including personal information, registered in the partner business system, thereby reducing the amount of data to be entered, easing the user's burden, and minimizing input errors. By continuously transitioning from the user terminal 2 logged in to the partner business system 3 and then performing FIDO authentication with the financial institution, personal authentication can be performed with a higher degree of reliability. Furthermore, because the destination is the financial institution's web screen, it is easy to design the user interface of the destination to be highly compatible with the partner business app, improving user convenience. Financial institutions often need to customize the design when collaborating with many partner businesses, but because it is a web screen, customization is relatively easy.

[0066] Although a preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, the present invention is not limited to such an embodiment and can be modified into various forms within the technical scope grasped from the description of the claims.

[0067] For example, in this embodiment, an icon or the like is used to accept the use of financial institution functions by executing the affiliated business app 22 on the user terminal 2, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a barcode or QR code (registered trademark) linked to the affiliated business user ID may also be used. In this case, the same effect can be achieved by operating a reading device (not shown) to read these codes, obtaining affiliated business user information 33a, and performing the process of setting the login status based on this information.
