<1-1. Overview of on-demand service provision system>
The on-demand service providing system 1 shown in FIG. 1 is a system that provides an on-demand service in which a plurality of services are linked together. The on-demand service is a service that receives an order from a user, manufactures a product according to the order, and delivers the product to the user. The plurality of services are, for example, a service (first service) that allows a user to select a product and make a payment, and a service (second service) that allows a user to create a product and request its manufacture. The products are, for example, photo books, posters, postcards, calendars, canvas panels, clothing such as T-shirts, and the like. The user can create a product using content provided by a content holder in the second service. The content is, for example, an image such as a photograph or a painting.

In the on-demand service according to this embodiment, a user can select content to be used for a product in a second service by making a prepayment for the product selected in the first service. Specifically, when a user selects a product in the first service and makes a payment, the user is granted authority to use the second service. With the authorization granted, the user can use the second service. That is, the user needs to make a payment (i.e., a prepayment) to complete payment for the product in the first service before using the second service. After the authorization is granted, the user can create the product by selecting the content to be used for the product in the second service and request the manufacturing of the created product.

In the following, the present embodiment will be described by taking as an example a service in which the first service accepts donations from users and provides products in return for the donations (for example, hometown tax payment). In this case, in the advance payment, money paid by the donor (user) is accepted as a donation to the local government (content holder).
The images used as content are, for example, images showing things related to the local government, such as landscapes, animals, local idols, and local specialties. By using images showing things related to the local government as content, the local government can also call for donations related to what the images show. For example, the local government can call for donations for the purpose of protecting rare animals using an image of a rare animal, or for the purpose of preserving the landscape using an image of a landscape (such as rice terraces).

With this configuration, the first service and the second service are linked, and the user can easily access the content in the second service for the product selected in the first service from the access information obtained by making a prepayment in the first service.
Therefore, the on-demand service providing system 1 according to this embodiment makes it possible to improve the convenience of on-demand services.

Furthermore, as in the above-described embodiment, developing a platform capable of providing the first service and the second service from scratch is costly (cost and time). In contrast, in the on-demand service providing system 1 according to this embodiment, an existing system that provides the first service and a system that provides the second service can be linked together. Therefore, for example, an existing system can be used for the system that provides the first service, and only the system portion that provides the second service can be developed, thereby reducing the cost of developing the platform.
Furthermore, the administrator of the system providing the second service can support the creation and manufacture of on-demand products on behalf of the content holder.

9. Modifications
The above describes the embodiment. Next, modified examples of the above embodiment will be described. Each modified example described below may be applied to the embodiment alone or in combination. Each modified example may be applied in place of the configuration described in the embodiment, or may be applied in addition to the configuration described in the embodiment.

In the above embodiment, an example has been described in which the first service is a service that provides a product in exchange for a donation, such as hometown tax payment, but the present invention is not limited to such an example. The first service may be a service that allows a user to purchase a product, such as an EC (Electronic Commerce) service. In this case, in advance payment, money paid by the user is accepted as the purchase price of the product. The first service may also be an event campaign, etc. In an event campaign, for example, it is possible to distribute content free of charge by presenting a serial code that has been given in exchange for making an advance payment.

In the above embodiment, an example has been described in which the content holder is a local government and donations from donors are paid to the local government, but the present invention is not limited to such an example. Donations from donors may also be paid to a content provider (e.g., a photographer) who is a resident of the local government.

In the above embodiment, an example in which an intermediary business is interposed between the user and the content holder has been described, but the present invention is not limited to such an example. The content holder may perform the operations performed by the intermediary business itself. In this case, the content holder terminal 20 will further have the functions of the intermediary business terminal 30.

In the above embodiment, an example in which tags are assigned to content by a content holder or an administrator has been described, but the present invention is not limited to such an example. For example, tags may be assigned by AI (artificial intelligence).

In the above-described embodiment, the two-dimensional code provided together with the product may provide the user with information about the content used in the product. For example, if the content is a photograph, the two-dimensional code may contain location information where the photograph was taken. This allows the user to make a pilgrimage to the location where the photograph was taken, using the location information obtained by reading the two-dimensional code.

In addition, in the above-described embodiment, a product design created by a user may be registered as a new recipe. That is, UGC (User Generated Content) may be utilized for recipes provided in the second service. By allowing other users to use and purchase recipes created by a user, it is possible to increase monetization opportunities and reduce the burden of purchasing a product. Furthermore, points may be given as compensation to users whose recipes are adopted.

In the above embodiment, an example has been described in which the access information created in the content management system 60 is transmitted from the content management system 60 to the intermediary business terminal 30, but the present invention is not limited to such an example. For example, the access information may be shared from the administrator to the intermediary business. In this case, when a download request is made from the administrator terminal 40, the access information creation unit 639 transmits the created access information from the communication unit 610 to the administrator terminal 40. The administrator transmits the access information downloaded from the content management system 60 from the administrator terminal 40 to the intermediary business terminal 30, for example, by sending an email.

The above describes the modified embodiment of the present invention.
In addition, the on-demand service providing system 1, the user terminal 10, the content holder terminal 20, the intermediary business terminal 30, the administrator terminal 40, the product management system 50, the content management system 60, the product manufacturing system 70, the manufacturer terminal 80, and the product manufacturing device 90 in the above-mentioned embodiment may be partly or entirely realized by a computer.
