Abstract

To solve the following conventional problem: when an introduction object is introduced, it is difficult for a user to check a difference relating to a use history of a user device to which the introduction object has been introduced and a transaction history associated with a transaction or the like of the user.SOLUTION: A recommendation management apparatus 3 is configured to: acquire use history information transmitted by a user device 5, including device identification information identifying the user device 5, the type of the device, information corresponding to a use history (item 1), a use date and time (or period), and the number (amount) of uses (step S33); receive transaction history information transmitted by a history management server 6, including a user identification information, a history type, information corresponding to the transaction history (item 2), a transaction date and time (or period), and the number (amount) of transactions (step S37); and calculate a difference between the sum of the history information (use history or transaction history) before introduction and the sum of the history information (use history or transaction history) after introducing an introduction object (step S81).SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 27
