Abstract: An information processing device includes a control unit. The control unit of the information processing device acquires the number of times of maintenance performed at a predetermined station during a predetermined period of time for the leased vehicle including the maintenance. The control unit of the information processing device determines a larger amount of reward to be provided to the user of the leased vehicle as the number of times of maintenance performed at a predetermined station during a predetermined period of time is smaller. The control unit of the information processing device outputs information of the determined reward.
