本發明係關於一種抽獎資格篩選系統及方法，尤指一種具有較佳公平性之序號兌獎機制的抽獎資格篩選系統及方法。The invention relates to a screening system and method for lottery qualification, in particular to a lottery qualification screening system and method with a better fairness serial number redemption mechanism.
為刺激人們消費，許多商家都推出了相關的促銷方案，例如消費後給予產品折扣券或可參加抽獎活動等，其中又以抽獎活動最受消費者的歡迎。In order to stimulate people's consumption, many merchants have launched related promotion programs, such as giving product discount coupons after consumption or participating in sweepstakes, among which the sweepstakes are most popular among consumers.
目前商家常用的抽獎資格辨別方式，以便利商店為例，係利用統一發票的統一編號作為抽獎號碼，原因在於：請參閱第三圖所示，由於至便利商店消費，消費者必然會在消費後，取得由收銀機(40)列印的統一發票，且因統一發票上的統一編號係為流水號形式，因此每個號碼必然是獨一無二而不致有重複之情況，接著再由消費者透過一般便利商店內常見的多媒體資訊機(50)，或是透過個人電腦連線至一抽獎伺服器(60)，以輸入先前購物所得的統一編號及相關聯絡資訊，如此即可由該抽獎伺服器(60)將所輸入的統一編號及相關聯絡資訊加入一抽獎名單中，供進行抽獎用。At present, the convenience of the lottery is commonly used by merchants. In the convenience store, for example, the unified number of the unified invoice is used as the lottery number. The reason is: Please refer to the third figure, because consumers will consume after convenience to the convenience store. Obtain a unified invoice printed by the cash register (40), and because the unified number on the unified invoice is in the form of a serial number, each number must be unique and not duplicated, and then by the general convenience A multimedia information machine (50) commonly found in a store, or connected to a lottery server (60) via a personal computer to input a uniform number and related contact information obtained from previous purchases, so that the lottery server (60) can be used. Add the unified number and related contact information to the lucky draw list for the lucky draw.
惟雖統一編號之流水號形式使每個統一編號具有其獨特性，然而現行的抽獎方法卻也因為統一編號的流水號形式而產生漏洞，原因在於：由於統一編號係為流水號形式，故消費者可由其擁有之統一發票的統一編號輕易地推知在其所擁有之統一編號前或後的統一編號，有心人可任意地於該多媒體資訊機輸入非屬自己擁有之統一編號，如此一來，真正持有統一發票的消費者將無法重複輸入其實際擁有的統一編號，因而無從得知其是否中獎。是以，現行的抽獎方式的公正性已遭受質疑，一旦消費者對之失去信心，則原先的促銷本意亦蕩然無存。However, although the serial number of the unified number makes each unified number unique, the current lottery method also generates loopholes due to the serial number of the serial number, because the unified number is in the form of serial number, so consumption The unit number of the unified invoices owned by the company can be easily inferred from the unified number before or after the unified number it has. The person can arbitrarily enter the unified number that is not owned by the multimedia information machine, so that the real Consumers with a uniform invoice will not be able to re-enter the uniform number they actually have, so they have no way of knowing if they won. Therefore, the fairness of the current lottery method has been questioned. Once the consumer loses confidence, the original promotion intention is gone.
為解決現有序號兌獎機制不公平的缺點，本發明之主要目的在提供一種抽獎資格篩選系統及方法，其改以隨機提供一獨特的序號予實際消費的消費者，藉此提高抽獎的公正性。In order to solve the shortcomings of the existing serial number redemption mechanism, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a system and method for screening lottery qualifications, which are provided by randomly providing a unique serial number to consumers who actually consume, thereby improving the fairness of the lottery.
為達成前述目的所採取之主要技術手段係令該抽獎資格篩選系統包括：一序號產生單元，係根據每次購物消費產生一抽獎序號以及一與該抽獎序號相符且獨特的兌獎序號，其中該兌獎序號係供提供予消費者；一序號暫存單元，係連接該序號產生單元，並記錄該序號產生單元產生的抽獎序號；一序號輸入單元，係連接該序號暫存單元，當該序號輸入單元取得兌獎序號時，即將之傳送予該序號暫存單元，若任一記錄於該序號暫存單元的抽獎序號與該序號輸入單元所取得之兌獎序號相符，則抽獎序號即具備參加抽獎的資格。The main technical means adopted to achieve the foregoing objectives is that the lottery qualification screening system includes: a serial number generating unit that generates a lottery serial number according to each shopping consumption and a unique redemption serial number that matches the lottery serial number, wherein the redemption number is The serial number is provided to the consumer; a serial number temporary storage unit is connected to the serial number generating unit, and records the lottery serial number generated by the serial number generating unit; a serial number input unit is connected to the serial number temporary storage unit, and the serial number input unit is connected When the redemption serial number is obtained, it will be transmitted to the serial number temporary storage unit. If any of the lottery numbers recorded in the serial number temporary storage unit matches the redemption serial number obtained by the serial number input unit, the lottery serial number is eligible to participate in the lottery.
而為達成前述目的所採取之另一主要技術手段係令該抽獎資格篩選方法包括下列步驟：產生一抽獎序號以及一與該抽獎序號相符且獨特的兌獎序號；提供兌獎序號予消費者；記錄抽獎序號；取得兌獎序號；比對取得的兌獎序號是否和任一所記錄的抽獎序號相符；若相符則該抽獎序號具備參加抽獎的資格。Another major technical means adopted to achieve the foregoing objectives is that the screening qualification screening method includes the following steps: generating a lottery serial number and a unique redemption serial number that matches the lottery serial number; providing a redemption serial number to the consumer; recording the lottery No.; The winning serial number is obtained; whether the matching winning serial number matches the recorded lottery serial number; if it matches, the lucky draw serial number has the qualification to participate in the lucky draw.
由於本發明所採用的兌獎序號乃是獨特的編號，例如以特定的公式所計算出的編號，故具有唯一且不連續等特色，因此無法由消費者隨意地猜測輸入，是以，利用上述技術手段，可將人為造成抽獎不公的情況降至最低，使整個抽獎活動的公平性提高，藉此提高人們對抽獎活動的信心，進而促進人們消費。Since the redemption serial number used in the present invention is a unique number, for example, a number calculated by a specific formula, it has unique and discontinuous characteristics, so that the input cannot be arbitrarily guessed by the consumer, so that the above technique is utilized. Means can minimize the unfairness of the lottery and increase the fairness of the whole lottery, thereby increasing people's confidence in the sweepstakes and promoting people's consumption.
