Abstract: There is provided an information processing method and the like capable of using an electronic commerce platform by work that is simpler than before. When finding a desired commodity at a member shop, a user performs smartphone settlement using a user terminal 120 to purchase the commodity. A settlement terminal 130 generates purchase information, being triggered by the smartphone settlement and transmits it to a mediation server 110. When receiving, from the user terminal 120, a notification to the effect that a user wants to list the commodity purchased at the member shop on an electronic commerce platform (application for sale), the mediation server 110 automatically generates listed commodity information based on the purchase information and transmits it to the user terminal 120.
