An electronic money server groups a parent who owns a parent mobile phone and children who own child mobile phones to be registered as a family, and credit information of the parent is also registered. When the child accesses the electronic money server by using the child mobile phone and specifies a money amount to request family charge, the electronic money server requests the parent mobile phone for permission of the family charge. When the parent grants the family charge, the electronic money server allows the parent mobile phone to decrease a value by the money amount specified by the child and to make the family settlement, and allows the child mobile phone to increase the value by this money amount and to effect the family charge. Further, the child mobile phone can accept issue of credit from a credit server on credit of the parent, thereby effecting the family charge.

Information processing device and information processing method

Ground stationsreceive any signal transmitted by a geostationary artificial satellite, and store the reception signal together with the reception time thereof. A difference &#x394;t in reception time of a same signal between the ground stationand the ground stationis calculated by performing correlation processing of the reception signal of the ground stationand the reception signal of the ground station. A distance Rbetween the ground stationand the geostationary artificial satelliteis measured by a distance measurement device. A distance Rbetween the ground stationand the geostationary artificial satelliteis calculated on the basis of the distance Robtained by measurement and the difference &#x394;t in reception times, as obtained by correlation processing.

When an electronic money card is set to a reader/writer, an introducing site connection unit is activated to connect a user terminal to an introducing site. The introducing site connection unit stores manufacturer information and transmits an electronic money function unit ID and the manufacturer information read from the electronic money card to the introducing site. An introducing server connects the user terminal to an affiliated store server through the introducing site, and the affiliated store server transmits purchase information to the introducing server when a user purchases. The introducing server calculates a commission amount from the purchase information and transmits the calculated amount together with the electronic money function unit ID and the manufacturer information to a distributing server. The distributing server distributes the commission amount to the electronic money function unit ID and the manufacturer information based on a predetermined distribution ratio.
