Abstract
A communication system includes communication terminals (2) and a server (1). The server (1) transmits first item data pertaining to a first item to the communication terminals (2) in response to an item acquisition request from any of the communication terminals (2). The server (1) tallies a reception count of the number of times the item acquisition request is received, and when the reception count reaches a predetermined value, transmits second item data pertaining to a second item to the communication terminal (2) that transmitted the item acquisition request for which the reception count reached the predetermined value.
