Separable comparison target provision system
[0001] The present invention relates to a separable comparison target provision system, and more specifically, to a comparison target provision system that assists the user in making a purchase decision and promotes the purchase by having a comparison target selection unit placed outside the purchase server select one or more comparison targets corresponding to a preset purchase frequency ranking range corresponding to the user's gender and age from user purchase approval data and transmit them to the purchase server when purchasing a desired item selected by the user.
[0002] Nowadays, purchases of desired items are made online using mobile phones or personal computers.
[0003] Conventionally, the payment stage provided only the name of the desired item, its price, and a screen for selecting the payment method.
[0004] When purchasing new products that I do not usually buy, it is difficult to properly judge how much of a burden this places on me.
[0005] Of course, prices for desired items are displayed numerically, but numerical prices are difficult for users to intuitively perceive.
[0006] For example, it is similar to how digital watches display time as numerical values, making them difficult to perceive intuitively, whereas analog watches displaying time with hands are perceived more intuitively than digital watches.
[0007] Meanwhile, traditionally, to encourage purchases, companies had no choice but to verbally persuade customers who found it difficult to make a decision at the payment stage. Moreover, even this was impossible online.
[0008] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a purchasing system that can help customers make sound purchasing decisions when paying for desired items, while facilitating purchases for businesses.
[0009] The present invention is proposed to solve the above-mentioned problem and aims to enable the user to easily determine the extent of the burden by presenting a comparison item with an equivalent price to the desired item when making a payment for the desired item.
[0010] In addition, the present invention aims for a comparison target presentation module to select and present one or more comparison targets corresponding to a preset purchase frequency ranking range corresponding to the user's gender and age from the user's purchase payment data.
[0011] In addition, the present invention aims for a comparison target presentation module to promote online purchase.
[0012] The present invention relates to a comparison target providing system (1000) that provides a comparison target to assist in making a purchase decision when purchasing a desired item selected by a user, wherein
[0013] A user terminal (200) that is connected to a purchasing server (100) via a network to transmit and receive data, and transmits a desired purchase item selected by the user to the purchasing server (100);
[0014] A comparison target providing system is provided, characterized by including: a purchase server (100) that provides a menu for selecting a desired item name, payment price, and payment method to the user terminal (200) for purchasing a desired item received from the user terminal (200), and receives a comparison target from an external source to assist in making a purchase decision and provides it to the user terminal (200).
[0015] In addition, the purchase server (100) of the present invention,
[0016] A payment module (110) that provides a menu for selecting the desired item name, payment price, and payment method to the user terminal (200) for purchasing the desired item received from the user terminal (200);
[0017] It further includes a comparison target presentation module (120) that transmits information about one or more comparison targets included in a preset price range based on the price of the item desired for purchase to the user terminal (200).
[0018] The above comparison target presentation module (120) is characterized by helping the user make a purchase decision by presenting information about the comparison target.
[0019] In addition, the comparison target presentation module (120) of the present invention is characterized by presenting information about the comparison target on a payment page or a product introduction page for the item to be purchased.
[0020] In addition, the present invention is characterized by further including a comparison target selection unit (130) which is positioned outside the purchase server (100) and presents one or more comparison targets included in a preset price range based on the price of the item desired for purchase, and analyzes the user's purchase data stored in the financial server (400) to select one or more comparison targets corresponding to a preset purchase frequency ranking range during a preset period and transmits them to a comparison target presentation module (120).
[0021] In addition, the comparison target presentation module (120) of the present invention is characterized by receiving one or more selected comparison targets from a financial server (400) located outside the purchase server (100), which are included in a preset price range based on the price of the item desired for purchase, and which correspond to a preset purchase frequency ranking range during a preset period through the analysis of the user's purchase data.
[0022] The comparison target providing system according to the present invention has the effect of enabling the user to easily determine the extent of the burden when paying for a desired purchase item.
[0023] In addition, the present invention has the effect of promoting purchase when a user makes a payment for an item they wish to purchase.

[0032] FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a comparison target providing system (1000) according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a purchase server (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a purchase server (100) according to another embodiment of the present invention.
[0033] This will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.
[0034] The present invention relates to a comparison target provision system (1000) that enables the user to easily determine the extent of the burden of the purchase when the user makes a payment for an item they wish to purchase, and promotes the purchase from the seller's perspective.
[0035] The comparison target providing system (1000) according to the present invention includes a user terminal (200) and a purchase server (100).
[0036] The user terminal (200) is connected to the purchasing server (100) via a network to transmit and receive data, and is configured to transmit the desired purchase item selected by the user to the purchasing server (100).
[0037] The user terminal (200) may be a mobile phone or a personal computer, etc.
[0038] The purchase server (100) provides a payment environment for the desired purchase item selected by the user.
[0039] The payment module (110) equipped in the purchase server (100) provides the name of the item to be purchased, the payment price, and the payment method selection menu to the user terminal (200) during the payment stage.
[0040] Previously, when making a payment for a desired item, only the item name, price, and payment method selection screen were provided.
[0041] As a result, when purchasing new products that I do not usually buy, it was difficult to properly judge how much of a burden it would be to me.
[0042] Accordingly, the present invention provides a comparison target at the stage of paying for a desired item to help the user make a purchase decision.
[0043] The comparison target presentation module (120) provided in the purchase server (100) is configured to transmit information about one or more comparison targets included in a preset price range based on the price of the item desired for purchase to the user terminal (200).
[0044] For example, if the price of the item you wish to purchase is 10,000 won and the pre-set price range is 10% to -10%, the price range of the comparison is 9,000 won to 11,000 won.
[0045] The information provided by the comparison target presentation module (120) may consist of text, images, or a combination of text and images, but it is desirable to include images so that intuitive recognition is possible.
[0046] I will explain using the example of purchasing a newly developed product idea called a "nail beauty kit."
[0047] In the comparison target providing system (1000) according to the present invention, an image is presented with the text "Spicy Chicken" as a comparison target for a nail beauty kit with a purchase price of 20,000 won.
[0048] Users can easily perceive that the cost of purchasing a nail care kit, 20,000 won, is a burden comparable to ordering seasoned fried chicken once, so they are helped in making a purchase decision.
[0049] The uncertainty associated with purchasing a new, infrequently bought product without any comparisons was resolved by providing a point of comparison. In other words, based on the purchasing experience of frequently ordered "spicy fried chicken," users can easily determine the extent of the burden placed on them by purchasing a "nail care kit."
[0050] The comparison target provided by the comparison target presentation module (120) is an item with a high purchase frequency that the user frequently uses. Therefore, when the comparison target is presented at the payment stage, the user can more intuitively and easily grasp the degree of purchase burden based on their own purchasing experience.
[0051] The comparison target can be presented not only on the payment page, but also on the product introduction page for the desired item displayed on the screen after searching for the desired item.
[0052] In this invention, to present a comparison target more objectively, the user's individual purchase payment data is used as a basis.
[0053] Here, the purchase payment data includes credit card usage history data, shopping history of online platforms such as Naver Shopping, shopping history of shopping applications such as Coupang, etc., and these purchase payment data are stored in a financial server (400). Purchase payment data is provided from a financial server such as a credit card company, an online platform such as Naver Shopping or Coupang, or a financial platform such as Toss.
[0054] The comparison target providing system (1000) according to the present invention further includes a comparison target selection unit (130) disposed outside the purchase server (100).
[0055] The comparison target selection unit (130) presents one or more comparison targets that fall within a preset price range based on the price of the item desired for purchase, and analyzes the user's purchase approval data stored in the financial server (400) to select one or more comparison targets that correspond to a preset purchase frequency ranking range during a preset period and transmits them to the comparison target presentation module (120).
[0056] The comparison object presentation module (120) can induce the user to easily make a purchase decision by presenting comparison objects that are frequently purchased in daily life, such as a cup of coffee or a pack of cigarettes.
[0057] In other words, by making the cost of purchasing a nail care kit 20,000 won seem like a burden comparable to ordering seasoned fried chicken occasionally, it is possible to induce users who are hesitant to make a purchase to pay.
[0058] This can be more effective than promoting the service verbally.
[0059] For reference, since the comparison target selection unit (123) is located outside the purchase server (100), the name of the present invention is named a separated comparison target provision system (1000).
[0060] FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a purchase server according to another embodiment of the present invention.
[0061] Another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 3.
[0062] Another embodiment of the present invention will only describe the parts that differ from one embodiment of the present invention.
[0063] In another embodiment of the present invention, a separate comparison target selection unit is not provided, and the financial server (400) takes on the role of the comparison target selection unit.
[0064] That is, in another embodiment of the present invention, the financial server (400) transmits one or more selected comparison targets corresponding to a pre-set purchase frequency ranking range during a pre-set period to the comparison target presentation module (120) through the analysis of the user's purchase data.
[0065] As such, the comparison target selection unit may exist as a separate configuration from the financial server (400) as in one embodiment, or the financial server (400) may be configured to perform the function of the comparison target selection unit. This can be selected by the system designer as needed.
[0066] The present invention relates to a separate comparison target providing system (1000), and more specifically, to a comparison target providing system (1000) that assists the user in making a purchase decision and promotes the purchase by having a comparison target selection unit (130) placed outside the purchase server (100) select one or more comparison targets corresponding to a preset purchase frequency ranking range corresponding to the user's gender and age from user purchase approval data and transmit them to the purchase server (100) when purchasing a desired purchase item selected by the user.
[0067]
[0068] Although preferred embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described above, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. It is understood that various modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the essence of the invention as claimed in the claims, and such modified embodiments should not be understood individually from the technical spirit or perspective of the present invention.
