Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0231708A1] A system for distributing electronic coupons over a communications network during on online purchase transaction with an e-tail server system. A client system selects a product from the e-tail server system (204). The e-tail server system provides the product code of the selected product and the purchase/redemption information to a promotion server system (206), which searches a database for promotional data linked to the product code (208) and distributes the electronic coupons to the client system based on the purchase/redemption information and the distribution rules of the electronic coupon (212).
