The method of providing the one-barcode service includes executing, by a terminal, a one-barcode service application and querying a service providing server for one-barcode issue information, receiving, by the terminal, one-barcode issue information including one or more of pieces of pre-issued card information corresponding to one-barcode identification information from the service providing server, and performing, by the terminal, a registration of alliance company information capable of being registered corresponding to the card information included in the one-barcode issue information by being in connection with the service providing server. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method of providing a one-barcode service, the method comprising: receiving, with a service providing server, a one-barcode identification information request from a card company server in response to a request by a terminal, wherein the terminal is configured to request card information including terminal identification information to the card company server; determining, with the service providing server, whether one-barcode identification information corresponding to the terminal identification information is stored in the service providing server; if it is determined that one-barcode identification information is stored in the service providing server, transmitting, with the service providing server, the stored one-barcode identification information to the card company server such that the card company server issues card information corresponding to the stored one-barcode identification information; if it is determined that one-barcode identification information is not stored, generating, with the service providing server, generated one-barcode identification information corresponding to the terminal identification information; transmitting, with the service providing server, the generated one-barcode identification information to the card company server such that the card company server issues card information corresponding to the generated one-barcode identification information; storing, with the service providing server, the card information and the generated one-barcode identification information; generating, with the terminal, a virtual card based on stored card information that corresponds to either the stored one-barcode identification information or the generated one-barcode identification information; and transmitting, with the terminal, a request for generating a one-barcode to the service providing server when the terminal selects the virtual card. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the method further comprises: receiving, with the service providing server, a query regarding one-barcode issue information from the terminal; determining, with the service providing server, whether one-barcode identification information is stored in the service providing server; if it is determined that one-barcode identification information is stored, transmitting, with the service providing server, the one-barcode issue information including the card information to the terminal; and registering, with the service providing server, information regarding a merchant service provider upon a terminal request, wherein the merchant service provider is configured to provide service to a user having the card information. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The method of claim 2, wherein registering the information regarding the merchant service provider upon the terminal request comprises: determining, with the service providing server, whether the merchant service provider corresponding to the card information is registered; sending, with the service providing server, a registration request for the merchant service provider to the terminal when no merchant service provider corresponding to the card information is registered; receiving, with the service providing server, a registration of the merchant service provider from the terminal; transmitting, with the service providing server, at least one of the registered one-barcode identification information or the generated one-barcode identification information to corresponding merchant service provider server so that the merchant service provider server registers the at least one of the registered one-barcode identification information or the generated one-barcode identification information; and notifying the terminal of a registration of the at least one of the registered one-barcode identification information or the generated one-barcode identification information so that an one-barcode registered in merchant service provider is generated in the terminal. ### Claim 4 A method of providing a one-barcode service, the method comprising: receiving, with a service providing server, a one-barcode identification information request from a card company server in response to a request by a terminal, wherein the terminal is configured to request card information to the service providing server; determining, with the service providing server, whether one-barcode identification information corresponding to the terminal is stored in the service providing server; if it is determined that one-barcode identification information is stored in the service providing servers, transmitting, with the service providing server, the stored one-barcode identification information to the card company server; if it is determined that one-barcode identification information is not stored, generating, with the service providing server, generated one-barcode identification information corresponding to the terminal; transmitting, with the service providing server, the generated one-barcode identification information to the card company server; storing, with the service providing server, the card information and the generated one-barcode identification information, wherein the card company server is configured to issue card information that corresponds to either the stored one-barcode identification information or the generated one-barcode identification information; generating, with the terminal, a virtual card based on stored card information that corresponds to either the stored one-barcode identification information or the generated one-barcode identification information; transmitting, with the terminal, a request for generating a one-barcode to the service providing server when the terminal selects the virtual card; when the card company server issues the card information, transmitting, with the service providing server, one-barcode issue information to the terminal, wherein the one-barcode issue information comprises at least one of the stored one-barcode identification information or the generated one-barcode identification information, and the card information; accepting, by the service providing server, registration of a merchant service provider from the terminal, wherein the merchant service provider is configured to provide service to a user having the card information; transmitting, with the service providing server, the at least one of the stored one-barcode identification information or the generated one-barcode identification information to a merchant service provider server; storing, with the service providing server, information regarding the merchant service provider; and assisting, with the service providing server, the terminal with the registration of the merchant service provider. ### Claim 5 A method of providing a one-barcode service, the method comprising: receiving, with a service providing server, a one-barcode identification information request from a card company server in response to a request by a terminal, wherein the terminal is configured to request card information including terminal identification information to the card company server; determining, with the service providing server, whether one-barcode identification information corresponding to the terminal identification information is stored in the service providing server; if it is determined that one-barcode identification information is stored, transmitting, with the service providing server, the stored one-barcode identification information to the card company server such that the card company server issues card information corresponding to the stored one-barcode identification information; if it is determined that one-barcode identification information is not stored, generating, with the service providing server, generated one-barcode identification information corresponding to the terminal identification information; transmitting, with the service providing server, the generated one-barcode identification information to the card company server such that the card company server issues card information corresponding to the generated one-barcode identification information; and storing, with the service providing server, the card information and the generated one-barcode identification information.
