Abstract
The point provider accepts, manages and stores membership information in a membership management device (20). At the same time, the point provider attaches to each product sold a non-rewritable storage medium (e.g., a CD card (30) embedded with a CD-ROM), in which the product-specific information and the point provider's website address are written. The member inserts the CD card (30) into an information reading device (15) of a personal computer (10) to connect to the website (25) of the point provider. The point provider checks the identity of the person who has accessed the website (whether the person who has accessed the website is the same person as the one who purchased the product) and, upon confirmation, adds the points corresponding to the purchase amount and stores the point data.
