Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé d'exploitation d'un point de service, un programme informatique et un système informatique propres à utiliser des points de service résidant sur le marché et à réduire la charge d'un fournisseur de points de service, tout en donnant satisfaction aux consommateurs. Les fournisseurs (a à f) fournissent des points de service à des consommateurs (A à G) lorsqu'ils achètent des marchandises (livraison de points de service). Un organisateur reçoit un taux contractuel (Y) de la part des fournisseurs (a à f) et organise un événement (V) au cours duquel on peut obtenir une offre (T). Les consommateurs (A à G) participent à cet événement (V) en payant des points de service en contrepartie (paiement de points de service) ; ils ont ainsi une chance d'obtenir l'offre (T) par loterie ou analogue. Par conséquent, les points de service résidant sur le marché sont utilisés, ce qui a pour effet de réduire la charge des fournisseurs de points de service (a à f).
