Auction Service Operation System and Method of Bidding Deposit {Auction method}
[6] The present invention relates to a system and method for auctioning an event (a product, a service) using the Internet, and more particularly, a period in which a bidder is assigned to an event auction service operator to participate in an event auction bidding. During the event auction bidding and free bid participation number according to the bidding guarantee amount, after selecting the event and presenting a bid, when the auction ends, It relates to an auction operation system and method that sells the event to the bidder who presented the sum, the auction price is held, the auction proceeds, and the bidding deposit is returned to the buyer who participated in the auction or converted into the same value cash. .
[7] In practice, the bid deposit will be held for a period of time with the consent of the buyer who participated in the auction, and if such period expires, the buyer will be refunded with a small fee, or at the buyer's option, the bidder ( Buyer) will be converted to the e-cash (or e-money) that you can buy paid content or products sold by the event auction service operator's site or affiliates at any time.
[8] In general, trading of goods and the like is carried out using a virtual space, such as the Internet. Particularly, through auctions and reverse auctions, buyers buy goods at a lower price, and sellers can sell the goods at a higher price. To make it possible.
[9] Auctions are divided into British auctions and Dutch Auctions, depending on the type of item sold. Generally, auctions are widely used, starting from the lowest price of the item and gradually increasing the price. It is a way to determine the buyer as the buyer.
[10] Dutch Auction starts with the highest price and gradually lowers the price. It is the way that the buyer who decides to purchase is determined as a buyer without setting a deadline.
[11] Alternatively, there is a reverse auction method that exists only online, and when a purchaser of a membership or an article presents a purchase condition, the supplier who selects the lowest price by the deadline is determined as the supplier.
[12] Here, the bidder of the British auction and the Dutch jade ship is the buyer, and the bidder of the reverse auction is the seller. In a bid-to-price approach, the British auction fluctuates from a low to a high price, while the reverse auction and Dutch auctions start from a high price and fluctuate from a low price. Auction end time is British auction, reverse auction is the end time set by the auction client, the auction end time, while Dutch auction does not have a separate end time, the buyer's intention to buy means the end of the auction.
[13] On the other hand, in recent years it is not the highest price auction method-and therefore not the original auction method. -The so-called lowest price auction method of auction operation that decides the only lowest price as a successful bidder is implemented. This auction is not an inherent (inverse) auction in that it is not a method of determining the winner as the winner of the highest price (in normal auction) or the lowest price (in reverse auction). It is similar to determining the winner by lot in that the presenter becomes the winner. The lowest bidding method is effective in maximizing the profit because the more bidders, the higher the participation fee.
[14] However, such an auction method generates a considerable profit on the subject side of the auction, but since the bidder's participation frequency increases as the number of participation in the auction can be infinite, there is no limit. If recognized, there is a problem that the number of participating in the auction is gradually reduced, thereby reducing the width of profit. In other words, the bidder is felt as the cost of purchasing a lottery ticket at any moment because the bidder is the only one, and the bidder may gradually rethink or stop participating in the auction. There is a problem that the profit margin decreases accordingly.
[15] On the other hand, due to the rapid spread and development of the Internet, various kinds of goods and contents are sold or made through the Internet, and the size of transactions is increasing exponentially, and recent Internet portal sites (Naver, Daum, Hitel, etc.) We are working to revitalize transactions through our site.
[16] The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a system and method for operating a bidding deposit attracting unit auction service for commercializing various events and selling through a differentiated Internet auction method.
[17] Another object of the present invention is to provide a transparent and new auction service operating system and method by giving an opportunity to participate in the auction for free, instead of attracting a bid deposit returned after a certain period of time.
[18] Still another object of the present invention is to provide a new method of auction service operating system and method that can increase the sales of the contents of the auction site operators or affiliates or products of the shopping mall.
[1] 1 is a view showing the structure of the bidding deposits auction service operating system according to an embodiment of the present invention,
[2] 2 is a conceptual diagram schematically illustrating a process in which an auction is operated according to an auction service operating system for bidding deposits according to an embodiment of the present invention;

[5] 5 is a flowchart illustrating a process of processing a bid deposit in the method of operating a bid deposit auction service according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[19] The deposit attracting unit auction management system according to the present invention for achieving the above object attracts the bidding deposit as a condition for participating in the auction in a system connected to a plurality of buyer terminals through the network and the successful bidder according to a predetermined bidding method. A system for determining, comprising: an auction event database in which event information including information on a product or service and a bid start price is stored for each auction target event; A bidding information database for storing bidding information including bids and bidders for each auction event; A bid processing information database for storing bid processing information including the amount of bidding security for each buyer attracted from the buyer and corresponding bid number and / or bid validity period for each buyer; A bid registration unit configured to perform a bid registration process by storing a bid for a specific event from the purchaser terminal in the bid information database; A successful bidder processing unit for determining a successful bidder based on a unique lowest auction method, a unique average auction method or a unique highest auction method among bidding information for a specific event stored in the bidding information database; And a deposit processing unit for selecting whether to immediately refund cash, convert to E-cash, or extend the bidding period when the bid security held by the buyer who participated in the auction ends when the bid participation opportunity granted to the buyer ends. Characterized in that made.
[20] In other words, auction site managers attract bidding deposits for a certain period of time under the condition of granting bid participation opportunities, and a predetermined bidder decision method (auction method, auction method) that is predetermined for each product, that is, the only lowest auction method, the only average price auction method, or only Buyers whose bidding opportunities (number of bids or period of bidding) are terminated after determining the successful bidder by the highest price auction method shall be extended to the period of cash refund, conversion to E-cash, or bid retention period at the buyer's option.
[21] As a result, buyers participating in the auction will be able to participate in the auction without the burden of fees payable in the existing lowest auction method, and the auction site manager will allow buyers who participated in the auction to purchase contents of a shopping mall or affiliated company operated by the auction site. It can be induced and can be expected to activate Internet commerce.
[22] In another aspect, the present invention discloses a deposit attracting unit auction operation method for attracting a bid deposit as a condition for participating in the auction in a system connected to a plurality of buyer terminals through a network and determining a successful bidder according to a predetermined bidding method. That is, the deposit attracting unit auction operation method of the present invention, the first step in which the buyer is connected to the system to attract the bidding deposit according to the auction participation according to a predetermined condition and select the auction event and the buyer bids for the auction event A second process of bidding by presenting a price and a third process of determining a bidder (buyer) as a successful bidder based on a predetermined bidding method among the bid price suggested by the buyer and a bidding opportunity of the buyer who participated in the auction expire The fourth step of judging whether or not the bidding opportunity has expired in the fourth step, and the fifth step of selecting whether to immediately refund cash, convert to E-cash, or extend the bidding period. Extension of the cash refund, E-cash conversion or retention period according to the process and the selection in the fifth process above. It is characterized in that it comprises a sixth step.
[23] Here, the bidder decision method may use a single lowest auction, a single average auction, and a single highest auction depending on the nature and type of the event.
[24] The only lowest auction method is a method of selecting the only person who bids the lowest amount above the bid start price (lowest price) presented in the event.
[25] The unique average price auction method calculates the average price divided by the number of bidders divided by the total number of bidders presented above the bid start price presented in the event. It is a way to select the only person who has bid.
[26] The only highest auction method is a method of selecting the only person who bids the highest bid above the bidding start presented in the event.
[27] In the above three auction methods, when the only successful bidder does not come out, the tied bidder is selected as the bidder who participated in the first bid among the smallest number of duplicates, that is, two (three without two). That is, any auction method will never make a bid for the reliability of all event auctions.
[28] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.
[29] The deposit used in the present invention is a fixed amount of money or securities that the buyer wants to participate in the Internet auction operated by the auction site operator and the auction site operator, and the buyer keeps the auction site operator for the predetermined period by contract. After the expiration of a certain period of time, the purchaser's choice is converted to a refund or other means of payment (e.g. cash, gift certificate, etc.). In the embodiment of the present invention, the (bid) deposit is refunded in full to the customer at the time of refund, excluding a predetermined fee. However, if the customer wishes, the Bid Deposit may be paid before the end of the Bid Deposit Period, as follows: 1) the extension of the bid deposit period; 2) the Bid Deposit may be used to purchase paid content or products from the Event Auctioneer and / or its affiliates.

[63] In FIG. 3, a bid registration process is performed sequentially through the Internet in the auction service operating system according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, when the purchaser enters a URL for connecting to the intermediary system 2 while the purchaser runs a program (for example, a web browser) for network connection on the terminal 3, the URL information is In a web browser it is converted by HTTP (hypertext transfer protocol) and packetized and then sent to the intermediate system 2 via the network 1.
[64] Accordingly, the interface server 10 of the mediation system 2 transmits the web page corresponding to the URL information to the purchaser terminal 3, and the transmitted web page is converted into a window state on the web browser and displayed. Therefore, the buyer confirms various information provided by the mediation system 2 through the web page displayed on the screen of the terminal 3 (S100).
[65] Thereafter, when the interface server 10 of the mediation system 2 provides the screen for member authentication to the purchaser terminal 3 to which the interface server 10 is connected, and the buyer ID and password are transmitted from the purchaser terminal 3, the processing server 30 The user authentication unit 310 performs member authentication according to whether the transmitted buyer ID and password are stored in the member database 460 (S110).
[66] When the purchaser authenticated as a member or a purchaser who is not authenticated requests the event information, the bid registration unit 320 of the processing server 30 connects the purchaser's terminal 3 to a page providing the event information. To check the information on the event you want to bid (S120 ~ S130).
[67] In this case, if the event is an article, information of various articles is provided for each category, for example, a communication device, an acoustic device, a beauty salon, a living furniture, and a health product.

(S140 ~ S160)
[69] On the other hand, if the buyer attracts the deposit in step S131 determines whether the bid participation opportunity (number or period) has expired (S132), if it expires, the deposit processing unit 340 to perform the deposit processing step.
[70] If the buyer enters a bid after payment is completed or bidding opportunity is not expired to attract the deposit, the bid registration unit 320 stores the bid price and the buyer in the bid information database 420. (S170 ~ S190 )
[71] Next, the mediation system 2 performs a successful bidding process based on the bidding information stored in the bidding information database 420. A process of successful bidding will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in the drawing, the auction processing unit 330 checks whether a predetermined bidding time has elapsed, and if the bidding time is over, performs a successful bidding process according to a predetermined bidding method based on the bidding information stored in the bidding information database 420. . Here, when the successful bidder decision method is the lowest auction method, a buyer who presents the only lowest price within the bid price range suggested by the auction operator by searching a plurality of bidding information stored for each event code in the bidding information database 420 (S200) If so, he is selected as a successful bidder (S120, S220).
[72] On the other hand, if there is no purchase offering the lowest price, but two or more people offer the bid price at the same lowest price, the first bidder who bids the bid is selected as a successful bidder. The process of selecting successful bidders is described in detail as follows.
[73] 1. When the bidding time ends, sort in ascending order based on the bid price.
[74] 2. Find and reorder the price of only one bid among the bids.

[78] 5. If there are no bids bidding for only two people, then bid biddings for bidding only three, the least number of bidders. Bid price bidding only 4 people… The buyer who bids the first price among the plurality of bidders with the lowest bid ordered by ascending order is selected as a successful bidder.
[79] In this way, the final winning bidder must be determined, and the only case in which the winning bidder is not determined is when no one bids on the auctioned item.
[80] When a successful bidder is selected for each event as described above, the successful bidder processing unit 330 notifies the successful bidder through the mail server 50 to the purchaser's terminal 3.
[81] The buyer who is notified of the successful bidding provides the final purchase intention to the mediation system 2, and the payment processing unit 350 displays the amount and payment information corresponding to the bid presented by the buyer when the buyer wants to purchase the successful bidding event.
