  • Patent number: 10565609
    Abstract: Information related to a privilege is caused to be presented so as to increase the probability that a user purchases a transaction target. An information processing apparatus detects a predetermined operation of a user which is defined as an operation where purchase motivation for a transaction target is higher than that of an operation to display transaction target information related to the transaction target and which is other than an operation of a user which is necessary to purchase in a transaction site where the transaction target can be purchased. When the predetermined operation is detected, the information processing apparatus causes privilege information related to a privilege which is given to the user to be presented on condition that the user purchases the transaction target targeted by the detected operation.

  • Patent number: 10438270
    Abstract: Provided are an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, an information processing program, and a recording medium storing thereon the information processing program, which can prevent a transaction disadvantageous to a user or registration of disadvantageous transaction objects. The information processing apparatus extracts a transaction object, which is identical to or related to a transaction object to be selected by a user and with which a condition more advantageous than the corresponding transaction object is associated, from a storing means that stores information on transaction objects referred to in the past time by the user, and presents the extracted transaction object to the user.

  • Patent number: 10078706
    Abstract: Provided are an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, an information processing program, and a recording medium storing thereon the information processing program, which are capable of dividing and displaying a number of elements on a plurality of pages while maintaining the property that it is easy to compare elements with each other. A plurality of element groups is determined based on a classification criterion corresponding to an attribute of an element that constitutes a list, and the respective element groups are allocated to any one of a plurality of pages so that all elements included in each of the determined plurality of element groups are displayed on the same page.

  • Publication number: 20140359416
    Abstract: Provided is a technique for allowing a user to easily find a transaction object on which the user wants to obtain information from a reference list. An information processing apparatus includes: a specifying means that specifies an interest object of a user based on a history of actions of the user on a transaction object, which is stored in a history storing means; a selecting means that selects a transaction object related to the interest object specified by the specifying means among transaction objects registered in a reference list that stores references to transaction object information on a transaction object; and a controlling means that displays the reference list so that a display manner of information indicating the transaction object selected by the selecting means is more easily visible than a display manner of information indicating a transaction object that is not selected by the selecting means.
