Abstract
A system and method for receiving a promotional sample product, which can enable an advertiser to check whether a sample product, provided by the advertiser, is accurately delivered to a customer, thereby securing the reliability of means for seeking exposure advertisement by providing samples, and maximizing the promotion effects. A system for receiving a promotional sample product includes: a sample receiving relay server; an advertiser terminal; a customer terminal; and a sample processing terminal. The sample receipt app generates only one authentication key per customer ID in order to prevent duplicated samples from being provided for one customer ID.
Claims28
A system for receiving a promotional sample product, comprising:
- a sample receiving relay server configured to receive sample product information and advertisement contents from an advertiser, provide the advertisement contents to a customer when a sample receipt request is received from the customer, generate an authentication key, provide the generated authentication key to the customer, and provide an authentication result to a sample receipt place according to a confirmation request for the authentication key, transmitted from the sample receipt place;
- an advertiser terminal configured to connect to the sample receiving relay server to input the advertisement contents desired by the advertiser and information on the quantity of sample products;
- a customer terminal configured to connect the customer terminal and the sample receiving relay server through a network, connect to the sample receiving relay server to download the advertisement contents for sample receipt, and receive an authentication key (pin number), which is used to authenticate whether the advertisement contents watched by the customer have been completely received, from the sample receiving relay server, and including a medium for generating an advertisement contents receipt completion authentication key;
- and
- a sample processing terminal configured to transmit the authentication key provided from the customer terminal to the server, and including a manager app for receiving an authentication result transmitted from the server in order to provide a sample to the customer,
- wherein the sample receipt app generates only one authentication key per customer ID, in order to prevent duplicated samples from being provided for one customer ID.
